Romantic Journeys

Romantic Journeys is a fantastic travel company. Barbara has made sure our vacations and anniversaries were phenomenal! Always has a great attention to every detail to make sure our trips run as seamlessly as possible

The best wedding gift we received was the referral to Barbara as our honeymoon specialist! She was so pleasant to work with and has become an extension of our family since our first conversation in 2019. Communicating with Barbara was so easy, even from a different state. She truly listened to what we were asking for and constantly provided updated and check-in's as we navigated the uncertainties of the pandemic. Unfortunately, COVID-19 affected our original honeymoon plans in 2020, but Barbara worked tirelessly to make sure all our honeymoon dreams came true even with a last-minute pivot due to sudden travel restrictions. The combination of both her knowledge and attention to detail created the perfect itinerary that balanced adventure and pampering. We will undoubtedly continue to give the gift of working with Barbara to all our friends and family and look forward to planning more special milestone trips with her.

So happy and thankful we chose Barbara to help us with our honeymoon planning! She made everything so easy and it all worked smoothly! Staying in budget was a priority and she made that happen! The place she recommended for us was AMAZING! It exceeded our expectations! We got the honeymoon of our dreams and more! We will definitely be reaching out to her in the future and will refer family and friends to her.

Excellent service! The honeymoon Barbara planned for us was amazing and we have her to thank for it. Barbara ensures that your trip is personalized to fit you! She initially helped us narrow down a destination, which was very helpful. Each step of the process was streamlined prior to the trip and our travel documents/itinerary made our travels seamless. We are so very happy with her and plan to book with her again in the future! She is an outstanding resource - and her help in the process will make all the difference. Thank you so much!

Barbara from Romantic Journeys was the best hire for planning our honeymoon! Once we gave her our budget, she shared several sample itineraries at different locations around the globe. We chose Bali and then she built out an incredible itinerary - from hotels to excursions to car transfers - everything was taken off our never-ending wedding planning to-do list and we were able to know the honeymoon would be perfectly mapped out, a true escape after the wedding. We received an adorable packet before our trip that detailed all of the travel information we needed and even sent a link to our itinerary so our families knew where we would be traveling. Barbara is so much more than a travel planner - she's a friend and we will absolutely use her for future trips we plan!

My Husband and I cannot thank Barbara Oliver enough for hard work on our honeymoon. She went above and beyond for us! She is patient, through, professional. Barbara was by our side and available before during and after our vacation. I should share the short version of our honeymoon journey to explain how great this travel agent is… We approached Barbara before planning our wedding wanting to honeymoon in the Caribbean. Barbara came back to us with a dream vacation planned with a detailed packet and power point! With family influence we decided to tour Europe instead. Barbara again created a trip touring the must sees in Europe. When the wedding planning began we quickly realized that we needed to significantly cut our honeymoon budget. Barbara, who was as enthusiastic as the first day we met her, went back to the drawing board. She presented us with our dream island vacation in St. Lucia. We went forward with booking. However, poor Barbara had to redo our honeymoon for the 4th time!! Due to natural causes happening in the Caribbean and my husband and I being cautious traveling virgins. We changed our vacation location yet again! Long story short Barbara planned an unforgettable trip to Greece and we had an amazing time! During our stay in Greece we came across a few issues that come with traveling to distant countries We called Barbara at 4:00 am in the morning and she was more than happy to help. After the call we were able to sit back and relax on our trip while she took care of the issues. You will be in good hands with this travel agent! She is extremely knowledgeable and makes the process stress free and fun!

Barbara is amazing! Her assistance in booking our honeymoon was phenomenal! She personalizes everything and really goes above and beyond to make it special! Having a travel agent will SAVE (yes save!) U money. It doesn't cost u anymore and it takes all the stress out of planning the trip of a lifetime when u have so much else going on!

My now husband and I got the opportunity to work with Barbara on our honeymoon in early October of 2014. We decided that there was so many wonderful places in the United States to see and explore so we decided to have our honeymoon in San Francisco, Yosemite and Napa valley. We went to the right person. Barbara was professional and new all the right places for us to check out. She was easy to work with and very responsive. We will reach out to her when we want to make another trip- maybe our 1st anniversary! She makes the planning easy! Thanks so much for making our honeymoon so memorable. :-)

My husband and I are so glad we decided to use a travel agent to plan our honeymoon. In the midst of wedding planning, the last thing you have time to think about is the honeymoon, despite how important it is! Barbara Oliver was so helpful in planning our trip. First, she listened to our wants and needs and created multiple package options for us. Once we finally decided on Bali, she took care of all the details and provided us with a couple different options for how the trip would go, based on budget, experiences, and specific hotels. In the end, the trip was everything we could have hoped for and more. Everything was taken care of for us from rose petals in the bathtub and "honeymooner perks," to transport between our hotels and activities. I would highly recommend taking advantage of Romantic Journeys to help plan your honeymoon...it doesn't cost you anything and it'll save your sanity, brides!

Barbara Oliver with Romantic Journeys was referred to us by a coworker of my husband. She had planned his honeymoon and he and his wife had nothing, but incredible things to say. We decided to give Barbara a call and she was everything they had described. We never actually met Barbara until a week before our wedding. But, the year leading up to our honeymoon she talked to us via phone conference and email to get everything organized. We started off with location ideas. Everything was immediately described to us and mapped out on a calendar to give us a better feel of what we could actually do. To start working with Barbara, she only required a $100 deposit which ended up being applied towards the total cost of our trip. We thought this was wonderful. Barbara painted a beautiful picture and really listened to everything that we wanted out of a honeymoon. She made sure to check what our preferences were when it came to location, quality of hotel, excursions and tours to book. She did it all. She monitored and tracked prices of hotels and gave us updates as the months went by on what we needed to do next. Before booking anything she would always send us a list and summary of potential options. We would then contact her with our final decision and she would book. She had a wonderful system to reserve our reservations and make payments. Everything went seamlessly. The week before our wedding and honeymoon we met with Barbara to review the final details. She provided us with a folder organizing every detail of our trip. She had a website that we could locate all of our information and also share with our families so they could track our adventures. She also gave us maps, printed out our confirmations, receipts, and excursion tickets. When one of the tickets didn't make it to us by the time of our meeting she shipped it to our house so that we would absolutely have it before we left. She gave us a bounded book that listed every detail of our trip on a daily basis so we would know exactly where we needed to be and what things we could be doing at all times. We literally didn't have to lift a finger, which was such a relief when in the midst of planning a wedding. The trip went flawlessly. We had the absolute best time of our lives and did not run into a single problem because everything was so well organized. Barbara found the perfect hotels and planned the perfect trip based upon our few interactions. She achieved and executed on all of our wishes. I would refer all of our friends and family to Barbara and I only hope that she plans other vacations beyond honeymoons so we can work with her in the future!!
