Melissa's reviews
Melissa lives in Newport so you are not going to find someone better educated on the area.

Melissa Schwartz did an exemplary job throughout the booking experience both pre-cruise and with follow-up after the cruise. She actually asked what I like doing on a cruise and shared her concerns that the River cruise might be less glitz then what I was accustomed to. I had always wanted to try a River cruise so I am glad that I did. Melissa was so delightful that I have already used her services to book an African Safari & an Iceland Extreme cruise. Melissa is wonderful & I look forward to planning many more vacations with her.
