Michelle Yaddaw

We had the pleasure of working with Michelle Yaddaw at Fora Travel for our four-day getaway to McMinnville, OR, and we couldn't be more impressed. Michelle went above and beyond to ensure our experience was seamless and memorable. She successfully arranged an exception to the Atticus Hotel's one-dog-per-room policy so we could bring our two small Chihuahuas. She even coordinated an early check-in for us. Upon arrival, we were delighted to be greeted by name—our dogs included! To top it off, a thoughtful thank-you gift of sparkling wine awaited us in our room. Michelle's meticulous planning extended to our wine tastings, focusing on small boutique wineries as we had requested. Each winery was unique and offered outstanding experiences—we were so thrilled that we joined two wine clubs! Michelle even helped us book a return visit to relive the magic. The Atticus Hotel itself was stunning, with exceptional customer service and an incredible on-site gourmet restaurant. Additionally, Michelle recommended and reserved three wonderful restaurants for us, each one a perfect fit for our tastes. Her dedication to organizing every detail of our excursions was worth every bit of her planning fee.

Working with Michelle was a fantastic experience. We wanted to plan a Christmas cruise for our whole family, including our daughter and son-in-law, and their three kids, and Michelle made it completely stress-free. She found the perfect Royal Caribbean cruise for us and even secured two staterooms right next to each other and researched what the noise level was in that part of the ship. She thought of every detail and checked in with us before we sailed to make sure everything was set. Her help made the planning process easy, and we felt totally prepared. I highly recommend her!

Our travel advisor was awesome. She was detailed, friendly, and considerate of our family and needs. She was quick to answer questions, honest about rates for the trip, and ensured that we had details of the area so we could do all the DC touristy things. Michelle found us the perfect location for our trip! We had a wonderful time without the worries of picking the right place to stay! She found us a great spot

We recently returned from a European trip planned by Michelle, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. She took care of every detail, making our experience seamless and worry-free. Because we booked through her, one of our hotel rooms included an upgraded view, $100 resort credit, and a lovely gift from the hotel. The itinerary Michelle created struck the ideal balance between guided tours, independent site-seeing, and relaxing downtime, allowing us to truly enjoy each destination without feeling rushed. Her insider tips on exchanging Euros, navigating the train system, and her fantastic restaurant recommendations were invaluable. From the beautiful streets of Nice to the charming Italian towns of Ventimiglia, Rapallo and Portofino, and even our unforgettable day in Monaco, every moment was carefully curated. Thanks to Michelle, we were able to focus solely on enjoying our trip, and we can't wait to plan our next adventure with her!
