"Family vacation"
Apr 29, 2026TN
I don’t think I could sing their praises enough. I wanted to explore Scotland but had no idea how to begin planning. I didn’t have to do anything. It was all taken care of. I just had to show up, I had no stress the whole trip.
This was the first of many trips to come. I’ll definitely be a return customer.
"Family Vacation"

Amber M knocked it out of the park AGAIN! As always, she provided great insight and excellent service throughout the process. Clients had a wonderful time and loved the quality of the tours and professionalism and knowledge of the drivers and guides!
"Multiple itineraries all over the world!"
Apr 20, 2026Nashville, TN
As a travel advisor, I get requests for trips all over the world. So far Authentic Vacations has helped me plan trips for clients throughout Europe, Iceland, and Australia. And my clients always come back happy and eager to plan another! I have worked with everyone, but most extensively with Ellie and Michelle, and I can’t say enough good things about them. They are thorough, kind, knowledgeable, and always willing to help get the job done! Highly recommend the entire crew at Authentic, and will keep coming back!
"So glad we booked our UK vacation with Authentic"
Jan 1, 2026Illinois
This review is long overdue. We booked a 2 week vacation in the UK through Authentic Vacations and are so glad that we did!! Amber was our advisor, and she took my wish list and crafted a great trip that provided exactly what we were looking for. It was so nice to have it all pre-arranged for us so that we could just go and not have to worry about anything. The hotels were great choices and the tour companies that Amber booked were really good ones. Communication was clear and easy, and the company kept all of its commitments. Thank you, Authentic Vacations! Nice job!
"A Complicated Itinerary Made Easy"
Nov 24, 2025Scottdale
Lauren did an excellent job with my clients! She was so helpful in a very unique and complicated trip for a solo traveler. We combined it with some Air BnB that my client did and lauren was so great! Thank you again for being amazing to work with!
"Pleasure, Memory Tour in Ireland"
Nov 15, 2025VA
YES! Joleen put together a wonderful itinerary for my return trip to Ashford and Dromoland Castles in Ireland. The drivers and transfers were very pleasant and always on time with very comfortable luxury transports. The castle hotels were exactly what I expected but I think Joleen must have said things in the booking process because it seemed as though they may have stepped their normal attention to details up a bit. The upgrade at Dromoland was unexpected but much appreciated! Truly felt like a prince at both locations and all things went as planned without any problems. Thank you, your staff and especially Joleen for all that was done to make this a trip to remember!
"My clients were SO happy with their Italy trip"
Nov 10, 2025Missouri
I worked with Ellie at Authentic Vacations to plan a client's trip to Italy. Not only were the clients SO happy with the itinerary that Ellie crafted, but as the travel advisor, working with Authentic made the whole process seamless and stress-free!
My clients toured around Florence, Rome, and Tuscany. They were sending me pictures throughout their trip, letting me know that I "nailed" the itinerary. Authentic Vacations and its staff really understand the destinations and what travelers are truly looking for.
On the travel advisor side, it was an absolute joy from start to finish working with Ellie. She was always quick to respond and available to help in any way. I truly can't wait to work together in the future!
