Carissa Rhule

I just want to say thank you to our travel advisor, Carissa. My wife worked with her to plan a surprise birthday trip for me to St. Petersburg, and she absolutely nailed it.

This isn't the first time we've worked with Carissa, and she has a perfect track record. She always delivers. She found us a fantastic hotel, the Mint House, which was in the perfect location for us.

More importantly, all the tours and activities she reserved were top-notch. She recommended some incredible restaurants and breweries that were right up our alley and handled all the reservations for key spots like the Dalí Museum. It was completely stress-free. We just showed up and had a great time. We're already looking forward to planning our next trip with her.

Words fail to capture just how incredible Carissa is as a travel agent. I had an outstanding experience working with her from start to finish. From the first call about planning, all the way through execution and the thoughtful follow-up after I got home, Carissa’s professionalism and attention to detail never slipped for a second. I hadn’t been back to Jamaica in 33 years, so Carissa really took the time to understand what I was hoping to get from the trip. Somehow, she managed to go “above and beyond” what anyone could expect—not just hitting that usual gold standard, but redefining it entirely. The itinerary she put together for my stay at RIU in Falmouth, Jamaica was spot on. She handled everything: immigration advice, airport transfers, flights, hotel accommodations, and recommendations for both local sights and entertainment. Because of that, I felt like I could truly relax and enjoy the trip, knowing every detail was covered. What stood out most was that Carissa made herself available during my vacation, making sure any questions or needs were addressed right away. I can't recommend Carissa and FORA highly enough to anyone planning a trip. You won’t regret trusting your travel plans to them. Thanks to Carissa, what could have been a stressful experience became one of the smoothest, most memorable vacations I’ve ever had!

I am so thankful I chose Carissa to handle the arrangements. From our very first conversation, her professionalism was evident. She listened to our needs and curated the perfect package for our team at PGA National.

What impressed me most was the constant communication. I was kept in the loop throughout the entire process, which gave me incredible peace of mind. There were no last-minute scrambles or unanswered questions. The real cherry on top, however, was the collection of wonderful perks they included for our group. It was such a delightful surprise and made our entire team feel incredibly valued. Thanks to their meticulous planning, our trip was seamless and stress-free. I will absolutely be using her services for all future corporate travel and would recommend them without hesitation.

Coordinating our annual corporate golf tournament travel is no small feat but putting it in the hands of Carissa was the best decision we could have made. Her service was impeccable from the get-go. What I appreciated most was the proactive communication; I was always kept informed of the arrangements, which allowed me to focus on my own work without any added stress.

The real mark of a top-tier service, in my opinion, is the attention to detail. The extra perks they arranged for our group were a fantastic and welcome surprise. It's those kinds of touches that elevate a standard trip into a memorable event. Thanks to her seamless planning, I could simply show up, enjoy the golf tournament, and share a few good bottles of wine with my colleagues. I will be giving her my highest recommendation for all future company travel.

Our booking experience with Carissa Rhule was absolutely outstanding. She went above and beyond to make sure all of our room reservations were handled smoothly — even accommodating several last-minute attendees without any issues. Carissa was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process.

Her attention to detail and commitment to making everything run seamlessly truly made a difference in our stay. We couldn’t have asked for better service — she made what could have been a complicated group booking feel effortless.

I highly recommend working with Carissa for any future reservations, no matter where your travels take you!
