Testimonials
Melissa is one of the friendliest, most helpful people I have ever dealt with. I can personally recommend her for exceptional advice, professional service, and thorough and detailed results. She is always happy to go out of her way to do all the little things that make me feel special.
I am a travel writer and travel frequently and extensively overseas. This means that I need a travel advisor who is knowledgeable of travel products, understands my travel needs, looks after the smallest detail, and puts together a relevant travel package. I have used Melissa Madigan for a number of years and she delivers – always. Unlike many travel advisors who often are inexperienced, unworldly, and intent on just selling a product, Melissa goes out of her way to understand and meet the client’s needs. I have no hesitation in recommending her.
Melissa Madigan has looked after me and my family for over 10 years. In the modern era of online access, I have come to rely on the personal service that she always delivers for me. We have had well over a dozen trips in that time, and I am always grateful to have her expertise through the booking process, and problem-solving skills when things inevitably go awry. I have recommended Melissa’s services to many friends who have also found that she adds a layer of care that puts any traveller at ease. I expect Melissa to be arranging my travels for many years to come.
