Jeff did an amazing job picking this hotel in Sitges (and our hotel in Barcelona) for us. He even communicated to the hotel the approximate time we would be arriving and everything was all ready for us when we arrived. Booking with Jeff was easy, straightforward and he communicated well along the way. I will definitely be using Jeff's Fora services going forward for my trips and will tell friends and family about his amazing service as well. This was my first trip to Europe and his expertise and experience put us at ease and his information/hotel packets were informative and value added. This trip went so well, and Jeff played such an important part in booking these beautiful hotels.

Jeff did an amazing job picking this hotel in Barcelona (and our other hotel in Sitges) for us. He communicated to the hotel the approximate time we would be arriving and everything was all ready for us when we arrived. Jeff also left a welcome gift for us in our hotel room, which kicked our trip off with a positive vibe from the start.

Jeff curated an excellent itinerary for my NYC trip this past September with a variety of activities to suit my interests. He has a knack for planning and logistics from booking the hotel and entertainment to finding unique restaurant experiences and even helping me navigate public transit (e.g. train, subway). All I had to do was show up and enjoy the weekend. I highly recommend working with Jeff for your travel needs!

Rehoboth Beach, Delaware: An Ecotourism & Sustainable Travel Guide
Rehoboth Beach has been my favorite beach to visit since I was a kid, and it’s a place I’ve continued to revisit year after year well into adulthood. It is a quaint coastal destination that offers all the modern conveniences you could want at the beach while maintaining vintage charm, luxury, and respect for the environment. The community is welcoming, friendly, clean, and tidy, and you can generally get around car-free once there. Quiet, yet never sleepy, Rehoboth is the perfect spot for anyone looking for an upscale and inviting coastal retreat in the Mid-Atlantic region.
