“She doesn’t just plan a vacation, she makes your dream a reality”

To Julie & The Jetset Gals:

Matt and I can not thank you enough for our amazing honeymoon. We had the most beautiful time in Greece and we owe it all to you gals! No detail was spared, ever. Julie managed to get us upgraded during high season, which made our honeymoon even more special. She puts her whole heart into every vacation she books and her work speaks for itself. We had multiple hotel managers approach us during our stay to personally thank us and to give their love to Julie. I will never book another vacation without her! She doesn’t just plan a vacation, she makes your dream a reality.

A million thanks,

-Amy C.

“PERFECT FROM THE START”

“Julie and the girls at Jet Set Getaways have planned two unforgettable trips to Italy for me and my family. They both were perfect from the start. The hotels, tours, and restaurant recommendations were all amazing from Rome, to Il Borro, Florence, and Sorrento. Our cooking class in Florence in Meri’s Tuscan kitchen was a highlight topped off with a full day boat tour along the Sorrento Coast, Capri Island, and Nero Bay with Giovanni and having lunch at Conca Del Sogno on our last day. It’s truly an experience we will never forget. Can’t wait to have Julie and Get Set Getaways plan our next trip”

-Rhonda

"Jet Set Getaways makes dreams come true”

Jet Set Getaways make dreams come true. Outstanding on every level. I’ve flown over 1 Million miles in my life and traveled extensively. Julie and company are true professionals and far exceed any and all expectations. I cannot recommend high enough. Pure professionals and handle incredible details. Do yourself a favor - retain the outstanding services of Jet Set Getaways and I guarantee you will be impressed. Job well done Julie. Thank you !!!

-Vince

“All details are thought of…”

When thinking of booking travel, three words come to mind: convenience, relaxation & luxury. When booking with JSG each of these elements has always been met & often exceeded. From the onset of booking our honeymoon, JSG was prompt to provide hotel recommendations that were matched with our desires for our trip to Greece. We stayed at the Blue Palace - Marriott Luxury Collection in Crete & The Chromata in Santorini. When we checked in, the staff pulled up our itinerary & knew what extra Virtuoso Amenities would be included, which luckily afforded an upgrade for our stays. Additionally, to our surprise, we receive a hand written letter with welcome treats & wine at each hotel! It was incredible to walk in our room & feel so special. The JSG team treats each of their clients exceptionally & personably. All details are thought of from the inception of the booking process & throughout the stay. I would highly recommend putting your trust in the JSG team to plan your next vacation!

-Shelley

“No detail was spared.”

“Julie Juba is an amazing travel agent and I HIGHLY recommend her. She planned the perfect trip for us for our 5 year wedding anniversary to Grace Bay Club in Turks and Caicos. No detail was spared from planning our daily dinning to setting up a romantic private beach dinner on our anniversary night. What makes Julie unique is that she truly gets to know her clients which enables her to customize the perfect vacation. We had an amazing vacation and are looking forward to our next trip that Julie is planning! After working with Julie there is no one else I would ever use!.

— Michele V. 

“WE WILL DEFINITELY USE YOUR SERVICES AGAIN”

“Thank you so much for making Emma’s sweet 16 celebration in Paris an experience she will remember forever. Your recommendations and attention to detail were fabulous. We especially loved the bike ride through the streets of Paris and our visit to the Eiffel Tower. It was great not having to wait in the long lines for the Eiffel Tour. You allowed us to maximize our time and maximize our fun! We will definitely use your services again for our next trip...we can’t wait!”

-Andrea

“a trip of a lifetime"

“We just want to thank you both for helping to make our honeymoon a trip of a lifetime. Thank you so much for the fantastic hotel recommendations and lists of things to do along the way. We loved every minute, and very much appreciated all the goodies waiting for us at each hotel! It was such an adventure and we had great weather. We hope to work with Jetset Getaways in the future! All the best!”"

— The Cymny’s

“We’re now huge Julie Juba Fans”

“The Jet Set Gal made our whole vacation amazingly do-able! As a mom to four small children, its never easy to make everyone happy, including the parents, but by working with Julie everything was personal and went smoothly. From the initial booking to returning home, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My husband said it best: “We’re now Huge Julie Juba Fans.” I can’t imagine planning another vacation without her help!.”

— Laura

“I cannot imagine booking a trip without Julie.”

I cannot imagine booking a big trip or even a small weekend getaway without using Julie and Jet Set Getaways. We have been using their services for years and have experienced each time the benefits and peace of mind that come with booking through them. Recently we booked a trip through Julie with many different hotel stays and long drives between each destination. When my husband's business meeting was rescheduled one night earlier than planned we had to skip one hotel and drive directly to our next destination. Julie handled all of the arrangements to make that happen. What could have been a stressful situation turned into no big deal. She handled it on a Sunday afternoon all the way across the country and made our trip work out perfectly. Julie's relationships at the best hotels provide even more peace of mind and wonderful perks! What's the point of taking a vacation if you're worried about all the details? With Julie we can relax knowing that we are taken care of.

— Jen S.

“Thank you very much”

"Thank you very much for helping us pick our “Minimoon” destination. The staff at Bucuti and Tara was nothing but exceptional and beyond pleasant. This was a great vacation, a great experience and the Bucuti Resort is amazing. We have been recommending the resort to everyone we have been speaking to since we got back. Thank again for the recommendation. We look forward to continuing our conversations on planning our real honeymoon to Italy next year.

— Andrew M.

“I CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH”

“I can’t thank you enough for the amazing hotel you booked for us in London, The Corinthia. The location, service, and rooms were amazing!!! You could not have picked a better place for us to stay!!! Thanks again.. No doubt I will be calling you again before our next vacation...”

-Jodi Brover

“There is only one person to contact-Julie.”

“Julie was so helpful in helping me plan our 25th wedding anniversary trip to Las Vegas and San Diego! I had done some leg work of my own. I kind of knew what I was looking for, but needed help.I posed a question about travel agents on the Wyckoff Moms Facebook page and everyone recommended Julie. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with. Even though we had never met, she understood exactly what I was looking for and was able to add so many “perks” to my accommodations. It made a great vacation into an unforgettable and spectacular one!”

“Words could never express our sincere gratitude.”

“Thank you so VERY much for all of your fine touches and making our family vacation to California so memorable. Words could never express our sincere gratitude. The hotels…amazing with stunning views and incredible hospitality…each and every one. The restaurants, delicious but exactly what we needed for that point in time. The amount of time in each destination was perfect and the distance between destinations was “just right”. Sightseeing spots were perfect with just enough time for much needed relaxation. Truly, I can’t think of anything we would change. Thank you again. We look forward to planning our next family vacation with the JetSet gals!”

-XO-

Katie, Toby, John & Megan

“There is only one person to contact and that is JULIE JUBA”

She was patient, understanding and spot on with everything she handled for me! She even had a special treat sent to our room for our anniversary! The next time I have an occasion for a trip or mini get-a-way, there is only one person to contact and that is JULIE JUBA.”

— Sandy

"WE LOOK FORWARD TO BOOKING OUR NEXT VACATION WITH YOU!”

“We had a wonderful trip to Hershey this past weekend! Thank you for the sweet chocolates from Jet Set, it made our daughter extra excited to see chocolate waiting in our room!”

-Victoria  

"YOU ARE THE BEST”

“Thank you both for your recommendations and help arranging our anniversary getaway! We loved the hotel- every member of the staff was friendly and so helpful- especially Andy at the front desk. The spa services were exceptional- I highly recommend their signature facial. The short trip was such an enjoyable break between 2 very busy weeks. You, again, are THE BEST !”
— Terri

“FORGET GOOGLE”

“Whenever I’m ready to plan a trip, I make one call: Jet Set Getaways. Forget Google. There is no replacement for the passion, knowledge, insight, experience and true love for travel that JSG provides. Julie and the team at JSG have arranged trips for my family both domestic and abroad - we’ve had the pleasure of visiting Aruba, Cayman, the Bahamas, Charleston - and most recently, a memorable trip to Italy. They take care of every detail - from hotels, to transfers, activities, and even restaurants; and they work hard to make sure that you have an unbelievable vacation.

Hats off to Jet Set Getaways and thank you AGAIN for taking great care of us!"

-Sabrina

“Highly Recommend.”

“I had first heard of Julie Juba’s travel service through Wyckoff Moms Facebook group. After enduring 5 days of Hurricane Sandy, my family and I were desperate to escape the mess and take a last minute vacation to South Carolina (somewhere within drivable distance). Within minutes of speaking to her on the phone, she sent me an email with several options of lodging which fit our budget. She was so pleasant to speak to on the phone, which made it so much easier as well! The place we chose was The Sanctuary in Kiawah Island, S.C. As Julie mentioned in our conversation, it was an amazingly beautiful place!!! She was able to get us an upgrade in our room and free buffet breakfast during our stay, which was an added bonus at no extra charge! She knew exactly what our needs were and steered us in the right direction. The hotel was so accommodating to my family and me. My kids (9 and 7) absolutely loved every minute of it. To date, this is probably the nicest place we have ever stayed at. I would highly recommend Julie’s service and expertise in arranging your next vacation. She definitely knows her clients needs! Can’t thank you enough, Julie. Because of you, you truly made Hurricane Sandy more bearable!” 

— Jeannie

“She went BEYOND.”

“Julie has been such an incredible help in all of our travel needs. Even if she was making a hotel reservation for a quick weekend trip she made it feel like a vacation in which relaxation was a priority. She went beyond in investigating what was available for my children not only at the hotel but in the surrounding areas. On our recent trip to Italy, Julie’s experience and knowledge was beyond what I had dreamed. We had requested a fairly intense trip from Southern to Northern Italy that was child centric. To say that this was the most concise trip would be an understatement! To the minute on each stop we had someone waiting to greet us and take us around. Whether it was a car, boat or taxi not a second was lost! On the last day at 11 at night (right before our flight!) my daughter broke her elbow while hugging a new friend. Julie was the first person I called to help! Again it was amazing what she did to help us- and to top it off there was a get- well basket waiting for my daughter when we returned to New Jersey!

I have called Julie at 6:30 in the morning when I was bumped from a flight (by my own choosing- who could resist $1600!!) and she changed my hotel reservations for me without penalty. She has made sure all of my children were taken care of individually when there was a special children’s treat available upon arrival. We have been welcomed, literally, all over world by the hotel managers who have personally made sure that we have everything. This treatment all is because of Julie’s special relationship that she has with the hotels and their staff. She makes us feel as if we are entering a family’s home! Julie may be “The Jet Set Gal” but she certainly makes me feel like one as well!”

— Andrea

“We will be using Jetset for all our future travel needs!”

“Dear Julie and Team Jetset Getaways,

I  wanted to reach out to let you know that my aunt and uncles trip to Tuckers Point to celebrate Susan's 70th birthday was fantastic. The champagne and strawberries you sent to their room kicked off their week! They were upgraded to an ocean view pool side room with a pool cabana! They enjoyed every moment of their stay. The staff at Island Brasserie made sure to sing happy birthday with their souffle on evening one and the staff at Blue did the same offsite. 
Thank you again for planning their stay! We will be using Jetset for all our future travel needs!”

-Debbie S.

“EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS”

“Wanted to send a quick note of thanks as JSG has once again outdid yourselves and exceeded our expectations with our latest family getaway to Hawaii! From the hotel to the activities and the food - each recommendation was spot on for our family to insure it was not only enjoyable but a memorable one! Thanks JSG - you are the best!

Keep doing what you do!”

-The Sedlaks

“JUST WHAT WE NEEDED”

“The trip to Italy was beyond amazing!!!! Castiglion del Bosco was incredible!! The food was unbelievable, the service was phenomenal, they cared about the kids needs and wants and they all had such a fun and delicious cooking class!!! The wine tasting was so incredible too, perfect cheese paring and we ended up taking home 8 bottles of wine!! Anyway, Tuscany was our favorite part of the trip! Capri was beautiful but very crowded. I don't think we'd go back to Quisisana, the service was outstanding and the location unbeatable but the accommodations were dated and not that comfortable. Hotel de Russie in Rome is always such a treat! They really went above and beyond to take care of us, and its such a great location too. It was a spectacular getaway, just what we needed, so thank you very much for all your help!!!

Hope to plan another trip with you soon!!!”

-Minelle

“USE THEM - YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED”

“Julie and her entire team at JSG have helped our family plan several vacations over the last few years and we couldn’t be happier to have found them! They are exceptional at making the whole experience of booking a trip as hassle free as possible. From booking flights and hotels to planning our daily excursions to even recommending great restaurants,  they come up with a plan that fits our needs and listen to what our goals/objectives are for that vacation.

We recently took a two week trip to Italy and visited four different cities.  On top of perfectly planning the travel arrangements in between cities for 6 people, the team gave us great recommendations on things to do in Italy that made our trip extra special.   They included day trips to smaller towns in surrounding areas, activities for kids such as pizza making classes in Rome and mask making classes in Venice….and even an incredible private boat ride in Sorrento.    To top it all off, Julie and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process and were always accessible for questions and/or concerns, something that was very important to us.    Use them….you won’t be disappointed!”

-The Tenebruso Family

“EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT”

“Just wanted to say Thank you to you both for planning such an amazing trip for our family and for all the thoughtful touches you included. Everything was perfect. It was a trip our girls will remember for a lifetime” ️ 

Thank you so much!

-Beth

“I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND YOU AND YOUR TEAM"

“You have no idea how big the smiles on my kids faces were when they saw their special surprise in our room!  You and your “Gals” outdid yourselves.  The Four Seasons Santa Barbara is such a beautiful hotel and I would definitely recommend it and you and your team.
Thank you so much!”
-Katie 

“You will not find better.”

“First of all, I wanted to say thank you for your recommendation and efforts in planning the perfect getaway for us. We had the most amazing time at the St. Regis in Bahia Beach Puerto Rico. Everything on our trip was picture perfect. You had it all locked in! It was a great adventure for us!

For anyone considering the services of a travel agent, I want to wholeheartedly recommend Julie Juba. As a former member of the travel industry myself, I am well aware of how extraordinary a travel agent she is. She is part mind reader, planner, organizer, and trusted advisor; all the characteristics you would want of your travel agent.

She loves her work, especially working with her clients to make sure she understands what they want and need for that memorable trip. You will not find better travel ideas and expertise anywhere. She pays attention to every detail and is a creative thinker and a pleasure to work with. I am happy to recommend Julie to anyone seeking travel expertise.”

— Jennifer

“A FLAWLESS TRAVEL EXPERIENCE”

“In front of the world’s largest vase at The Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg - one of the many shore excursions we enjoyed from our outstanding Baltic cruise on Silverseas which was part of an incredible vacation that JetSet Getaways put together for us. Julie and her team once again exceeded our expectations with the finest luxury accommodations both before and after our cruise! We have turned to JetSet for many incredible trips both domestically and abroad and are always impressed by the many contacts Julie and her team have to coordinate a flawless travel experience! Looking forward to planning with them our trips in 2020.”

-Lynn

“THIS IS DEFINITELY A WEEK WE WILL ALL REMEMBER FOREVER”

“Sitting on my patio having my last morning coffee before we leave today. I can not thank you enough for making my parents 70th beyond amazing! We were upgraded to a huge connecting master suite, and welcomed to our decorated living room with birthday cake, chocolate strawberries and champagne. Our concierge was super attentive and went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. This is definitely a week we will all remember forever!
I’m turning 45 in December! Can’t wait to have you plan it for me! Thanks again for everything!”

-Erin

“IT’S PERFECT”

“The kids love it here!!!! It’s perfect!!! I knew you would find something for us!! Thank you so very much!!!! All the stress pays off! Wouldn’t ever trust anyone’s recommendations for travel but yours.”

-From Maryanne

“The most magical 2 weeks of our life!”

“Our honeymoon was the most magical 2 weeks of our life! Working with Jet Set Getaways was the best decision we made. When we were starting to plan our trip we weren’t sure we needed a travel agent but a friend recommended we call Julie Anne. We are SO happy we called! Julie Anne and Katy helped plan our honeymoon from start to finish not to mention all the surprises they planned while we were away. All the little details made our honeymoon more special than we could of ever imagined. Julie Anne and her team are extremely professional, genuine, more than helpful, and a pleasure to work with! We cannot wait to plan our next trip with Jet Set Getaways and have already recommended them to our newly engaged friends!”

— Sarah & Kyle Sanchez

“Thank you, thank you, thank you for a wonderful experience!”

“We sincerely thank you for all your help and guidance you provided for our 10th wedding anniversary trip to Italy! Tara, your itinerary and flight suggestions worked perfectly for us. Each hotel you secured was amazing and exceeded our expectations! (And of course we loved the special note and bottle that greeted us in each destination.) Every restaurant, travel tip or idea you offered was so helpful and made our trip run seamlessly. Your feedback and communication was always timely, knowledgeable, and patient (as we changed our minds more than a few times!)

Thank you, thank you, thank you for a wonderful experience.”

-Erin and John

“Nothing can compare.”

“We can sum-up why we are delighted Virtuoso travel clients in two words: “Julie Juba.” Julie is extraordinarily talent at planning, knowing us and our family, anticipating our needs – sometimes before we even anticipate them. Without fail, every property she’s booked for us has been fabulous, every excursion perfect, every trip a delight. We have tried other tour offering and packages in the past and nothing can compare. Julie is the first and only call that we make because we know that in her hands our trips are a lock to be our best family memories.”

— Mary Lou and John Squires

“This is our favorite day!”

“Julie has helped us plan many family vacations, from Disney to Anguilla. This year we did our dream trip to the Amalfi Coast! It was truly amazing!!
Julie planned each day and made each day super special. Everyday we kept saying, “This is our favorite day!” We did a private boat tour that will be a forever memory!

— Wendy Lagstein

“We have been booking our vacations with you for about 7 years. Each and every trip has been amazing.”

“Dear Julie and the Jetset team,
I want to thank you again for a fabulous vacation! We just realized we have been booking our vacations with you for about 7 years. Each and every trip has been amazing! The locations and hotels have been fantastic-ALWAYS!!
We have just returned from a summer vacation at the Cliffhouse in Maine. The property is truly spectacular with stunning views! Our corner suite was beautiful, clean and spacious with wraparound terraces. Definitely a place to return to! Thank you again!”
-Ilisa

“You went above and beyond.”

“You have been a lifesaver for me and my family, and I just wanted to take a moment to express my long overdue gratitude. When we were getting ready to take an annual family trip last year, our flights were suddenly changed by the airline, leaving us with only 20 minutes to catch a connecting flight in Florida. We decided to spend the night in Fort Lauderdale to avoid the risk of missing the only daily flight into Treasure Cay, Bahamas. Being unfamiliar with that area, we reached out to you to help us find a nice, clean, safe hotel to spend the night with our two young children. Well, you went above and beyond! Not only did you book us a gorgeous room overlooking the beach in the luxurious Atlantic Hotel, you arranged a car service (with car seats!!) to transport us from the airport and back again the next day. We also thoroughly enjoyed the fruit and cookies left in the room with a handwritten note from the hotel manager. And to make the deal even sweeter, you secured us a rate that was half of what we would have paid had we booked on our own. So, thank you!!

Not only are you an expert on travel, you are also an amazing resource for day-to-day needs, and you always go the extra mile to help someone in need. When my car was in a fender-bender a few months ago, I wasn’t sure where to turn to have it repaired, since the accident. You recommended your uncle’s auto body shop, and they could not have been more fantastic! Your own mother, in spite of the fact that she was terribly ill that day and on her way to the doctor, took my call and began making arrangements for me to get the repair estimate. Then your uncle’s partner, Jim, took over (since my own insurance agent proved to be pretty useless) and handled EVERYTHING! He wrote up the estimate, contacted the other driver’s insurance company and dealt with their adjuster, followed up with me to schedule the repair, and even arranged for my car rental. I did not spend a dime out-of-pocket, did not have the added stress of dealing with an insurance company, and my car looked brand new after the repair!

Twice in the past year I have found myself in difficult situations where I didn’t know what to do. Both times I turned to you, and both times you came through for me! Whether it was reaching out to your professional contacts to find me a fabulous hotel room at the last minute or reaching out to your own family members to get my car fixed, you gave 110% to making sure my experiences were the best they could be. For that, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!!”

— Renee S.

“We are COMPLETELY blown away”

“We are COMPLETELY blown away already - after such a long trip here, this hotel and everything you have set up thus far has made it ALL WORTH IT!!!!! Thank you SO much! Still mind blown on how you got this picture here!!!!”

-Brittani

“The honeymoon of a lifetime!”

“Julie and Jet Set Getaways designed the most wonderful honeymoon for us in Bermuda. The planning process was seamless and a breeze. Julie is super knowledgable about the hotels she works with and was able to make recommendations regarding activities and restaurants. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, and we didn’t! We really had the honeymoon of a lifetime and it just wouldn’t be possible without Julie’s expertise and arrangements.
Thanks Julie!”

— Claire and Todd Ballantyne

“100% recommend”

“Julie and her team at Jet Set Getaways helped create the most perfect honeymoon we could imagine. She was extremely knowledgeable in helping decide on a destination and suggested spots that we would have never discovered otherwise. She and her team were attentive, prompt, and very detail oriented. They were able to suggest and book dining, activities, and transportation with ease. There is no question we received extra special service as a result of booking through her including champagne and dessert upon arrival. I can’t wait to have Julie help book our next Getaway and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to travel for the perfect vacation destination.”

— Jennifer Meuller

“Customer for Life”

“I knew planning a trip for my honeymoon halfway across the globe in Greece wouldn’t be an easy task. Deciding to go with Julie was by far the best decision I made. Both her and Katy are very detail oriented and made sure that everything was covered while planning the trip. From booking our flights to making transfers from island to island to setting up dinner reservations, I can go on forever, everything was covered and made this trip go as smooth as it could possibly go. Julie has a customer for life and I cannot wait to plan my next vacation with her!”

— Josh Walkowitz

“She thought of absolutely everything.”

“My family and I vacationed at the Somerset in Turks and Caicos this past March. This is a privately owned townhouse located in Grace Bay and I can honestly say this was my absolute favorite vacation ever thanks to Julie.

She thought of absolutely everything before we even left. Upon her suggestion, I pre-purchased groceries and she made our dinner reservations at a different restaurant each night, along with exciting excursions during the day, all before we left. Some of the excursions we enjoyed were jet skiing, horseback riding on the beach, deep sea fishing, a spa day, just to name a few!

Since she has visited many destinations I feel confident in her experience and professionalism as a travel consultant. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone who is interested in traveling near or far. I plan on calling her again for all of my travel needs.”

— Gina Logan

“Truly worry-free, luxury honeymoon”

When it came time to say “I do”, I knew I could handle planning a wedding and a large rehearsal dinner, but the idea of tackling a 10-day honeymoon would put my stress over the edge. Julie was referred to me by a friend, and she and Katy really created a dream vacation! My husband and I knew we wanted to go to Bali to experience the gorgeous scenery and lovely culture, but outside of TripAdvisors and YouTube, we were pretty lost.

With Julie and Katy’s guidance and advice, I selected flights, hotels, and day trips, it was a breeze. As the trip approached I received access to their App, which not only refreshed my memory of all we had put together, it also provided a means to communicate with both Katy and Julie while we were overseas! Maybe the efficiency of their App should have been an inkling, but we experienced 10 days of A+ VIP status all the way! The hotels greeted us with champagne, learned our names in less than a day and decorated our villa with framed photos of our wedding. Oh, and those day trips I thought we “threw together” came with a personal driver and tour guide!

I’m sure we would have had a great honeymoon regardless, but working with Jet Set Getaways allowed us to breathe easier, and truly experience a worry-free, luxury honeymoon.”

— Marc & Jessica Wenstrom

“Can’t wait until our next trip!”

“We had no idea where we wanted to go for our honeymoon! Julia Juba helped us narrow our choices and pick the perfect place! We ending up choosing the Bucuti & Tara Resort in Aruba! As Julie said, it was a fabulous adults only resort within our budget. Julie and her staff provided us with many restaurant recommendations, answered hundreds of questions and booked all of our reservations (hotel, restaurants, massages, snorkel trip, etc.). Julie checked in on us a few days before our trip and provided us with a detailed itinerary via an app. I can’t say how happy we are to have used Jet Set Getaways! I can’t wait until our next trip!”

— Jean and Rob

“Julie and her team NAILED IT.”

“We never thought planning our honeymoon would be so much easier than planning the wedding especially when we couldn’t see the venues and places ourselves! We relied on websites, forums, brochures, and comments provided by Julie and her team. Throughout the process we felt we were in good hands, because Julie and her team were knowledgeable, patient, and understanding. They arranged flights, transportation, lodging, and an action packed itinerary catered to our needs.

We kicked off our honeymoon with a few days in Cape Town, South Africa where we got a glimpse into what Julie’s team had in store for us. From the moment we landed we were treated like royalty. Landing in Cape Town, we were immediately greeted by a knowledgeable driver who whisked us away to the beautiful Taj Hotel. We were upgraded to a suite where Julie had arranged a wonderful welcome package for us that included champagne, dessert, rose petals, and a framed photo from our wedding! From that moment on, we knew this trip was going to be special. We began our African adventure the next morning greeted by Tony, our driver and personal tour guide for the duration of our Cape Town stay. He would start us off with a cable car ride up Tabletop Mountain, followed by a quick coastal drive to Boulder Beach, and ending at a private lunch at the Flagship restaurant. Tabletop Mountain would end up being the first of many breathtaking views we got to experience. If you like penguins, Boulder Beach is the place to be. Lunch at the Flagship is a uniquely special dining experience. Chef Duncan serves a multi-course meal to a limited amount of people right in his home. The delicious meal paired with a different wine for each course was delightful, as was the interaction from Chef Duncan and the other guests.

Our quick visit to Cape Town didn’t stop there. The next day we were scheduled for a few wine tastings in the winelands. Julie had gotten our wine preferences earlier and put together a list of a few vineyards she thought we might enjoy. No need to bore you with the details but we were well taken care of and everything was definitely a hit. We were treated to some excellent wines paired with different foods and chocolate that really accentuated their flavors. We capped off the day with lunch at the Delaire Graff Estate. Suffice to say, the estate was a beautiful property with commanding views of the Stellenbosch Mountains. Tony made sure we had the best seats in the house so we could really enjoy the the superb lunch accompanied with delectable food and great service.

Can an African adventure really be called an adventure without seeing some big game? We think not. After our whirlwind tour of Cape Town we spent the next few days in Kruger National Park for a safari. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by personal driver, tour guide, and photographer extraordinaire, Barry Peiser. We would spend a whole lot of time with Barry over the next few days but we started it off with a ride to the Singita Sweni Lodge. Already excited to see some animals in the wild, we managed to spot three out of the Big Five just driving to the lodge! The lodge itself was a truly remarkable and magical place that we could not believe existed in the wild. From the attentive staff, the gourmet food, and the beautifully appointed private cabins, everything was like a dream.

Lauren and the Singita Sweni staff are all stars. Especially our personal host, Fortunate, who made our stay in the wild a home away from home. She made sure our room was always tidy, our glasses always full, and our bellies always satisfied. We were very “fortunate” to have experienced her hospitality. Boasting an extensive wine library, the Singita Sweni manages to really complement every meal with something new and delicious. And the meals themselves? Being in the middle of nowhere and eating on some of the best gourmet food we’ve ever had was definitely an unexpected highlight. Dining on rack of lamb and pan seared sea bass while sipping a Pinot Taj under a star filled sky in the middle of Africa with the one I love? CHECK

Now for the real reason we came to Singita, the safari! Everyday we were treated to two private game drives with Barry and Sunday, our super powered animal whisperer and tracker. These guys were the BEST. With Sunday’s super powered vision and ability to track animals through footprints and random tracks, we were able to see all of the Big Five. Barry was knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us for the best views on the reserve. We were even blessed with seeing an elusive white lion cub as he walked with his pride a few feet from our truck! A priceless moment, indeed.

Capping off every afternoon game drive while watching the African sunset is something very special. The radiance of the sky coupled with the best company you could ask for… no words or photos can accurately describe what it’s like to really be in that moment. We were on such a high that we did not want to leave, but Azura Benguerra Island in Mozambique was awaiting for our arrival. We stayed for a few days in Mozambique in complete beach bliss – another gem in the middle of nowhere. We were upgraded from a suite to a house! The many benefits of being Julie’s client :) We had a private pool that was within steps from the secluded beach and our own host that took care of our every need. The weather, ambience, and service at Azura was the perfect and only way to end our honeymoon.

Julie and her team nailed it! The level of treatment from start to end made us feel like a million bucks!”

“Perfect Hawaiin Honeymoon”

“I wanted to let you know how happy we are with your service and how appreciative we are for all the work you did to make our Hawaiian honeymoon perfect. With all the stress of planning a wedding (and finding out we were expecting a baby during the process) we had little time to research honeymoon activates, never mind actually booking anything! From the first time that you met with my husband to discuss the trip, we both felt that you all did your very best to get to know us so that you could take the reigns and really plan the trip for us. We love that your team took control and didn’t bother us with minor details. More importantly, you gave us your honest opinion and encouraged us to change our mind when you thought that you had ideas that would give us a better experience (thank god we listened)!

Every single aspect of our honeymoon was taken care of, from car services and dinner reservations, to snorkel trips and helicopter tours. Your services allowed us to enjoy the experience and each other without having to sweat the small stuff. Each activity was perfect for us and the hotels were AMAZING. Your team was professional, quick to respond, understood our needs and adhered to our budget. You guys also made us feel special by letting both hotels know that we were on our honeymoon/babymoon and having little gifts and snacks sent to our room over the course of the trip! So sweet!

We would, and do, recommend Jet Set Getaways to anyone looking for a dream honeymoon (or any trip) and we will continue to use your services in the future. Thank you so much for the trip of a lifetime. We are so lucky to have worked with you and can’t wait to work with you again in the future!”

“We don’t have to worry about anything”

Just a quick note to tell you we are truly enjoying The Ritz Reserve Property. It’s gorgeous and the staff here have been extremely wonderful. Thank you for the bottle of wine and the chocolates. We truly enjoy having you help us plan our vacations because we know we don’t have to worry about anything! Cheers:)

“The peace of mind you gave me is priceless”

Dear Julie and all of the wonderful people at Jet Set Getaways:

This is the view from my suite on MSC Cruises.  We were leaving Mykonos at the time.  We had such a wonderful vacation and it was all thanks to your help.  You guys made it all so easy and we were not disappointed at all.  The cruise was amazing and everything you said it would be and more!   Thank you again.  I will be booking all of my vacations with you.  The peace of mind you gave me is priceless.

“Thank you again for everything!”

Thank you Julie and team for a fantastic stay at The Grand Excelsior in Sorrento and Belmonde Castello di Casole. Both properties were absolute perfection.  

The upgraded room at the Grand Excelsior commanded a nearly 360 degree view of the amazing Sorrento coastline and water views from possibly the highest room on the Coast.

The luxurious room was fresh and beautifully appointed.  Located in the historical part of the hotel, the room reflected the hotels legacy with brand new fixtures, white marble bathroom and and fresh white built-ins.  But the view! Amazing. The service was professional and gracious. And the manager sought us out and provided us with an upgrade beyond expectation.

The Belmond in Tuscany was incredible as well.  The manicured grounds, infinity pool overlooking the beauty of the Tuscan hillsides and beautifully appointed rooms. I hesitate to call this a hotel or property.  The buffet breakfast was the best we have seen and the staff ready to meet out every whim. The gym with its stone vaulted ceilings and state-of-the-art equipment.  Just beautiful.  

Every detail was considered at this property and we will definitely be back.

We also stayed at the Westin in Milan for one night and that was perfect! The rooms were well appointed, another great breakfast buffet and a short walk to the Milan train station.

We met up with friends at the Westin Rome and although the rooms were enormous, we basically had a large penthouse, it is a large, dated hotel that serves its purpose for  a place to find respite from the busy streets of Rome. Next time, we will consider the Hassler.

We had a private yacht tour of the Amalfi coast and that was definitely an amazing day and a night tour of the Colosseum was a perfect way for our kids to escape the heat while getting a tour in.  We had a private tour of Florence (Hotel Brunelleschi...which was an incredible location...just not a 5-Star resort but we loved and will stay again if we go to Florence). We also had a private tour of the Vatican and St. Peter’s and that was another trip highlight and really the only way to tour such a busy and vast site.

Thank you again for everything. I look forward to working with you as we plan our Spring Break for 2020!  And possibly a Turks and Caicos trip this Christmas...

“Consummate Professional! Love the Jet Set Getaway team!”

Big or small, Julie's team is the go-to team for all travel needs. Julie had arranged our first trip to Italy a couple of years ago. Our trip to Rome-Florence-Amalfi coast was one of the most memorable family trip we've taken. Whatever concern I may had about taking my family abroad was quickly allayed by all the details Julie thought ahead for us. She really thought of everything! Recently, Julie's team helped us again for our trip to Arizona. Through her connection, we received so many perks with the resorts in Sedona and Scottsdale. We saved hundreds of dollars and were treated like a royalty. Big thanks to the entire team for your help once again!

“Just Incredible”

Our private cooking class at “Ill Borro” was fabulous!! If you enjoy cooking, learning about authentic Tuscan dishes and most important, the most brilliant chef imaginable to assist you, Allesio is your man and “Il Borro” is your place!! We had such fun preparing and cooking our meal...and then they served us our meal for lunch in their restaurant!! Just incredible!! Thank you Jetset Getaways for making this piece of our honeymoon the most perfect slice of life!!

“you pulled it together for us and made it happen!”

I just wanted to thank you for rescuing our Spring Break! That could have been a total disaster and you pulled it together for us and made it happen! We are so appreciative, the kids are now in love with the skiing at Jackson Hole, they are crazy about the mountain. The Four Seasons needs a refresh but we all knew that before we booked. Thank you immensely for all of the goodies upon arrival as well!! My son wore the hat every day and the girls rocked them too and all of the goodies from the wine to the chocolates, cookies etc., were such a wonderful treat. Also the ski guide, phenomenal, I don't know if you hand picked him or if it was because of our level but he was so knowledgeable and so much fun. We really appreciate all that you did!!!
