Founder
My career started out as a part time job when I was 19 years old to make some extra money and help a family friend who owned a travel agency that was growing very quickly. The more I learned about travel and our guests the more I fell in love. Within a year I became a full-time employee on the corporate side of the business.
When my husband and I got married, he was a US Army Ranger stationed in Germany. Being a military family provided us with a wonderful opportunity not only to travel but also to live in different places and experience life as locals. Having already been in the travel industry for a few years, I was able to start working in travel for the military in Germany right away.
When we moved to our next duty station, I took on the role of assistant manager at the Officers' Club, overseeing daily operations and events for over 500 guests. I have a passion for cooking, hosting, and entertaining. Upon returning to the US, I wanted to open my own agency to combine my travel and food/hospitality experience. One of the things I love about being a travel agent is meeting new people and hearing all about their dream vacations.
I’m the proud owner of Personal Escape, a travel agency that specializes in creating fully customized and unique vacations around the world. With nearly 35 years in the industry, I focus on providing 5-star service to all types of travelers in countless destinations. Personalized travel services.

Susan Blume was absolutely amazing to work with and truly made our experience unforgettable. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond make sure everything was perfectly ...
planned and tailored to our preferences.
She handled things like making dinner reservations seamlessly, which took so much stress off our plate. Every recommendation she made was thoughtful and spot-on. Throughout our stay, she consistently checked in and made sure everything was to our liking, which really showed how much she cared.
Susan was also incredibly responsive and patient whenever we had questions. No matter what we needed, she was always there with helpful answers and a positive attitude.
What stood out most was her attention to detail and genuine dedication to making sure we had the best experience possible. It felt very personal , not just a service.
We are so grateful for Susan Blume at Personal Escape Travel and would highly recommend her to anyone - she truly goes above and beyond!

She’s the best. Highly recommend.

Susan was absolutely amazing and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. My husband and I traveled to Greece for our honey moon and in every single hotel we stayed in we were...
upgraded to even better and more luxurious rooms without even asking, due to Susan. We also traveled to different islands and she made sure all our transportation needs were set up prior as everything was so organized and felt completely stress free. She also checked in on us several times while we were away to make sure our trip was going accordingly and we had everything we needed for all the places we were traveling too. Traveling in a different country can come with many stressful parts but she made sure our entire trip went as smooth as possible! I cannot say enough amazing things about Susan, as our trip was absolutely beautiful and you can truly tell how much she cared about us having the most perfect honeymoon!!

She helped us narrow down our wishlist and come up with a trip to Mallorca and the South of France (France wasn't even on our radar before). She was imaginative, easy to communicate with, and always responsive. Our return flight ended up getting cancelled and Susan jumped right in to help us troubleshoot. Thank you Susan for helping us plan the honeymoon of our dreams! Can't wait to book our next trip with you.

Susan truly made this a trip we will never forget! With stunning locations, and incredible accommodations that made us feel like true royalty, we saw Italy in a way we will never f...
orget! There was no aspect of our trip where we felt unsure or nervous on our journey! Susan took care of every single detail down to the car ride from the hotel to the train station or airport. She found us hidden gem areas that were not as mainstream and touristy, but were maybe triple the beauty! (Plus she still managed to get us day trips to those iconic locals)
This was a trip we will truly never forget and we cannot thank Susan enough! I am a frequent traveler and this was my first time letting go of the reigns and using a travel agent, and I am beyond glad I did!
In two weeks we were able to see Sorrento, Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Florence, and Rome!
In each location we were accommodated skip-the-line tickets which gave us immediate access to all the art and history in the museums, leaving us with enough time to see even more of each city!
A review truly cannot put into words the beauty and comfort we were afforded thanks to Personal Escape Travel, specifically Susan Blume! Thank you so much!

Once your package is ready, she sends you a very well organized file with all the necessary documents which came in handy when we were traveling. I reached out to her once while we were traveling to get an earlier transfer to the airport and she jumped on it right away. She even sent us a little gift to say congratulations. I highly recommend her, especially if the idea of planning a wedding AND honeymoon at the same time makes you feel stressed out. It was a really easy process and we will be using her for future trips as well. Thanks again Sue!!!

After planning my wedding myself, the last thing I wanted to do was to plan a lavish Hawaii honeymoon. Enter Sue and Personal Escape. Sue took the time to listen to what we wanted ...
out of our honeymoon, and then moved heaven and earth to make it happen.
We had a week in Maui and a week in Kauai planned, and when Maui suffered devastating fires a week before we were set to travel, Sue and her team worked day and night (including weekends) to reschedule us onto Kauai for the entire trip. Through Sue our trip was entirely insured and we received full refunds for the Maui piece, and the best part was I didn't have to do anything (which was great because I was focused on finalizing wedding prep).
I am so grateful I chose to work with Sue, and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. I love that we received a paper packet with all of our confirmation numbers, flight and excursion details. Super helpful when we didn't always have internet access on the remote island. Sue even checked in to make sure everything was going well during our trip. I couldn't have asked for better support. We look forward to working with her on our future travels.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Susan Blume who went above and beyond to plan a safe, beautiful, and affordable beach vacation for my daughter and her three friends. I ...
cannot express enough how grateful I am for the exceptional service and attention to detail provided by this amazing travel agent.
From the very beginning, Susan exhibited a high level of professionalism and expertise. She took the time to understand our requirements and preferences, ensuring that every aspect of the trip aligned with our needs. Susan held conference calls to listen to all parents concerns and even offered to meet the girls in person to review the trip. The trip to DR was the perfect location that offered a balance of safety, natural beauty, and affordability.
She meticulously researched and selected accommodations that were not only comfortable and budget-friendly but also located in a secure area. This gave us peace of mind throughout the vacation, knowing that our children were in a safe environment.
Susan also arranged transportation from the airport to the resort, making the entire journey hassle-free. She provided details about local attractions, restaurants, and activities, allowing the girls to make the most of their time at the beach destination.
Throughout the planning process, the Susan was readily available and responsive to our questions and concerns. Her excellent communication skills made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. She was patient, attentive, and genuinely cared about the girls well being.
I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a fantastic beach vacation.. Her dedication to creating a safe, beautiful, and affordable experience surpassed all expectations. I am extremely grateful for her expertise and professionalism, and I will definitely be reaching out to Susan for future travel needs.

Susan planned my entire bachelorette to Dominican Republic this past May! Susan was absolutely amazing & went above and beyond to make this experience one I will never forget. She ...
found us a beautiful resort that was perfect for my bachelorette trip. The entire weekend went smoothly & anything we needed before and during the trip, Susan was there to answer all our questions. I will always use personal travel escape and Susan to book every trip I go on in the future. I am so grateful for Susan and all she did for me and my bridesmaids! Everyone had such an amazing time!

Little late to writing our review because things have been extremely hectic since getting back from our honeymoon. But I can not thank Sue enough for the best Hawaiian Honeymoon! W...
e got married September 30, 2022 and took a two week honeymoon to Hawaii spending a week in Kauai and a week in Maui. I contemplated booking everything myself vs a travel agent and we ended up using Sue because she had great reviews, we didn’t want to deal with the Covid rules, and Sue was very responsive. Our trip was unbelievable! We had the most amazing time! We stayed in the most beautiful hotels and everything was so easy to book with her help! We loved how organized everything was with all the confirmation numbers and information sent to us in a packet right before our trip. Sue checked in on us during the trip as well which was sweet. It truly took a lot of stress off my plate as the bride and I’m so glad we choose to use Sue! Can’t wait to have Sue help us put together a one year anniversary trip to Italy!

Sue was absolutely amazing! She helped us plan our honeymoon in Hawaii with booking hotels and renting a car. One of the hotels we had gotten a night free, plus a bottle of champ...
agne and free sit down breakfast each morning! She also sent over a ton of excursions for us to book. In the beginning, I had a difficult time choosing hotels and what part of the islands to stay in (changed this a few times) and she was very patient with me and offered her advice. I would absolutely recommend Sue to help plan your honeymoon and would use her again for future trips!
