Audley Travel - USA Reviews 

From the initial inquiry right through to our return from South Africa Thora Taylor from Audley Travel could not have been more professional. The suggestions itinerary wise, as well as lodging could not have worked out better. Questions and requests for information were always responded to in a timely manner. Her hands on experience with the many aspects of such an adventure were truly appreciated.

The itinerary was perfect. Thora took careful consideration of my priorities and built a unique experience that left both my husband and I with a desire to return in the near future. We met wonderful people from different parts of the world, learned a lot about the local environment and took home memories that are irreplaceable.

Had an amazing trip to Japan thanks to Audley Travel and our rep, Adam Falk. He took time to listen to our requests, what interests we had, what we hoped to take out of this holiday. Everything was beyond what we imagined, hotels were perfect and in good locations, the guides he had set up along the way provided information we never would have known if we did this completely on our own. The itinerary fit us perfect, from big city to small towns, gardens and temples. This is our second holiday with Audley, completely satisfied with the planning and service they provide, their reps are very knowledgeable, will definitely use again for future travels.

Sarah was an absolute pleasure to work with and she did an outstanding job planning our last-minute customized trip to Italy! She listened carefully to all of our requests, she helped us check off all our boxes, and she made some additional suggestions that turned out to be terrific! Thanks to Sarah and Audley Travel, our trip totally exceeded our expectations! I strongly recommend Sarah and Audley Travel to anyone planning a vacation. They are knowledgeable, responsive, and with you every step of the way. They address every detail so all you have to do is enjoy your travel experience! We can’t wait to do another trip with them soon!

We had a great experience working with agent Jeff Procopio, based in the U.S. We were planning a 35th anniversary trip to Switzerland & Italy (we'd never been to either) and only had a high level vision for our trip. Jeff listened to our thoughts and crafted an itinerary that realized that vision and aligned with our budget. Jeff was amenable to making adjustments based on our feedback, until we arrived at the perfect itinerary for us. Jeff was also immensely helpful identifying best modes of transportation between the many points during our 2-week journey; sharing his insights on tipping, activities, tickets, excursions, etc. We were sent a well-organized binder with all the details and documents preceding a 90-min pre-trip call with Jeff to review every detail of our trip. It was only on that call that we realized how many questions we had and asking Jeff in real time was so valuable. We felt confident as we embarked on our trip and Audley Travel was highly responsive to any questions that came up while touring. And...it was truly a trip of a lifetime. I would highly recommend Jeff and Audley to craft a personalized and special experience.

My daughter and I went on a literary tour of England and it was the best trip we have ever taken! Lily, our travel specialist did a fantastic job of designing the perfect itinerary and every location we went to had the best amenities and every guide was knowledgeable and very friendly. I would recommend Audley Travel to anyone wanting to go on the perfect adventure!

I have to admit I was a bit worried at first, using an agent we found online, but the reviews are true. Our trip to Italy was planned perfectly and was fabulous! If we had questions, there was always someone available to answer them. Even while in Italy, the partners that work with Audley were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Cassey is who we began our planning with until a position transfer, and Jenna is who we completed everything with. Both women were wonderful to deal with and very knowledgeable. Our drivers were all extremely pleasant, our tour guides made the experience so much better, and our hotels were all very clean and comfortable. It was an amazing journey.

From the first contact to our arrival home our experience with Audley and Eric was the best vacation time we have ever spent. We have done others and none compare to the expertise and quality of service we received from Audley. We had a wonderful time and would continue our frendship with all that were involved.

We recently returned from an unforgettable journey through Spain—exploring Barcelona, Madrid, and Seville—expertly arranged by Hannah Whitesides at Audley Travel. Her thoughtful planning, local insight, and attention to detail made our experience seamless, immersive, and truly unforgettable.
Culinary Delights
One of the standout moments of our trip was a hands-on paella cooking class in Barcelona. With guidance of our wonderful chef, Ana from Fresh Cooking Spain led us through the art of crafting traditional paella, along with tapas. Her warmth, humor, and passion for Spanish cuisine made it one of our favorite memories.
Architectural Marvels
In Barcelona, the Sagrada Família left us absolutely speechless. Gaudí’s visionary architecture, from its towering spires to its intricately detailed facades, was even more impressive in person. Our guided visit brought the history and symbolism of the basilica to life, and it was an experience we’ll never forget.
Artistic Treasures
Another highlight was our visit to the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC). The museum’s extraordinary collection of Romanesque church murals, Gothic altarpieces, and modern Catalan art gave us a deeper appreciation for the region’s rich artistic heritage. In addition to the artwork, the rooftop terrace offered spectacular panoramic views of Barcelona—an unforgettable vantage point that perfectly capped off our visit.
Seamless Travel Experience
Every step of our journey was effortless, thanks to Hannah’s expert coordination. From beautiful accommodations to knowledgeable local guides, she tailored the entire experience to our interests and preferences. Her personalized touch and support throughout made us feel both cared for and inspired to explore.
We can’t thank Hannah enough—and a special thanks as well to Ana for sharing her culinary talents with us. This was a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and we wholeheartedly recommend Hannah Whitesides and Audley Travel to anyone planning a customized and enriching adventure through Spain.

The whole process from initial inquiry, itinerary, booking and service during our trip was very prompt and professional. We worked with Thora Taylor and she really paid attention to what we were looking for on our trip and put together an amazing itinerary for us on short notice.

We just completed a 12-day Scandinavian tour and Aislyn Emerson at Audley Travel was fantastic to work with in planning, booking and support while traveling. I highly recommend calling her if you are interested in visiting that beautiful area of Europe.

We just recently came back from 12 amazing days in italy. Audley travel and Sarah Quigley did an extraordinary job planning and communicating with us throughout the planning, traveling and follow up. When I first began to plan our trip I was unsure of where to go in italy. I reached out to many travel companies but chose Audley for their personal individualized approach.

Our experience with Audley Travel was excellent. Their European travel partners also provided personalized and attentive service. Samantha was especially terrific to work with. She understood our quirky requests and made arrangements for planes, trains, cars, and transfers that more than met our expectations. Her suggestions for excursions and tours were excellent and immeasurably enhanced our overall experiences in France, Switzerland and Italy. When we fell ill with a cold/flu bug she was especially helpful and even sent us a care package of lozenges and herbal tea.

Four of us 1969 Tuy Hoa vets decided to return to our old air base and its environs and then to revisit places we’d seen only briefly during the war, and then to tour some of “North” Viet Nam. The question was whether to do it on our own or sign on with a travel agency. We concluded that doing it ourselves was possible (we’d been there before after all) and that it would be relatively inexpensive.
However, we might run a lot of risks, small and large: coordinating all the stops and hotels, eateries, ground transportation; all the air connections; not to mention, our visas. Even a small misstep by any one of us could hamper our tour; a larger one could ruin the trip for all of us. We opted for professional help. And among the professionals, Audley Travel (with a lot of input from Meghan Berger) was the agency that topped our list. After weeks of massaging our trip --- changing places and lengths of stays as we four debated priorities --- Meghan put together a package that gave us exactly what we (ultimately) chose.
She provided excellent air service from LAX to Saigon, handled all our air and ground transportation throughout Viet Nam, booked some awesome hotels for us, provided knowledgeable, local guides and responsible drivers, and even helped us go on to Cambodia and Thailand afterwards. The trip was fantastic! We got “a lot of bang for our buck.”
The professionalism displayed by Meghan and her local “crew” was impressive. They were all friendly, helpful and informative; and they kept us on schedule, whether preparing for our journey or while we were there in Viet Nam.
If I were to return to Viet Nam next year, would I travel with Audley? Maybe not, because I already learned so much from traveling with them this time. But if I were traveling anywhere else over there, somewhere I’d never been before, or traveling again with a group, yes, absolutely, yes!

This was our 3rd trip with Audley Travel experiencing multiple countries on 2 continents. We keep coming back due to the consistency of quality and reliability in every aspect of our travels. We appreciate the care and attention provided by the specialists, guides and drivers to ensure we have the best experience possible. When planning our most recent trip Sebastian made the process so enjoyable. His insights and suggestions made our time in Paris even more special!

Our trip was to London and then on to Ireland. Lily Cohen, Audley's UK specialist, spent time talking with us and getting to know us and what our dreams were for this trip. She designed a trip specifically for us, and we were 'over the moon' with her results! Every day was perfect, and we wouldn't go back and change a thing.

Audley was recommended to me by a friend after his positive experience planning a New Zealand. We asked our Specialist to provide options for Italy for a wine region, historical city, and sandy beaches for a trip within the next 3 months, and they delivered! We just got back and it exceeded our lofty expectations. I couldn't imagine coordinating the hotels, day trips, and car service without Audley. We only had a few minor issues and it was resolved within an hour. In my opinion, it's worth the extra money for Audley to coordinate a trip that you couldn't plan on your own. We will use them again.

We had used Audley for planning help with a trip before and decided to use them again for our recent trip to Italy. We were extremely happy with our experience. Our advisor, Andria, helped us plan a trip that was enjoyable and memorable. She was knowledgeable regarding our travel area and offered insights and suggestions that were quite useful. All in all, she was instrumental in providing us with a great travel experience.

We booked our honeymoon to French Polynesia through Audley, and Anthony V was incredibly helpful with the planning. He took care of everything, resorts, inter-island flights, and timing. He quickly addressed any issues that came up while we were traveling.

We were a little unsure about using a travel agent at first, but given the complexity of this trip, we’re so glad we did. We’d absolutely recommend Audley.

We had an AMAZING trip to Greece and it was all because of the wonderful service we had with Audley Travel. My mom, sister and I traveled to Greece for 2 weeks. For reference we are all 56 or older. We had private tour guides for all of our excursions, private cars and drivers (THE BEST!!) and lovely hotels. Our tour guides were so knowledgeable and friendly to us. We were in Athens for 4 days, Nafplio for 4 days, Chania (on Crete) for 4 days and then back to Athens airport for the night before our fight home. We went kayaking, sailing, explored ruins, castles, and the loveliest towns and neighborhoods. We even had a private cooking experience in a lovely home! All of the food we had was out of this world and the Greek wines were delicious. We had to buy 2!! extra suitcases to get home because of all of the wonderful shopping we did. We were recommended to Audley Travel by a friend and we are so happy for it. None of us have ever traveled on a trip that has been curated by a travel agent before. This trip was very bougie and a once in a lifetime style of travel for us. Thank you Jeffrey and Audley Travel!!!
