Omigosh, Patty was wonderful!
This was our first time using Fora and working with Patty. Her recommendations and attention to detail was spot-on. She made our bucket list and milestone vacation an experience to remember…beautiful hotel and upgraded accommodations, transport accommodations, and fabulous and personable tour guides. She even left us a welcome note at each hotel (Miami, Santa Cruz, Quito) with a lovely snack; and champagne to celebrate our 40th anniversary…so very special and so very appreciated.
We also liked using the Fora app; it had all our travel information in one location and was easy to use and easy to communicate with Patty.
Thank you again, Patty! We look forward to planning our next vacation with you.
PS:
- We give Hilton Blue Lagoon 4-stars; great location near airport, wonderful and spacious suite. *We give Wyndham Airport Quito 4-stars; great location near airport, wonderful and spacious suite.

Communication was definitely timely and clear. Patty provided helpful information about the hotel location and amenities, and gave prompt assistance when a change needed to be made. I would certainly recommend her services to my friends.

Patty was amazing! She is so easy to talk to and listened to exactly what I wanted from my vacation. She gave me several options for the tours we talked about and her recommendations were spot-on. She left me notes and treats when I got to each hotel I stayed at, which was such a lovely surprise touch. The itinerary she sent me was perfect. Patty had every detail so well-organized and it was so easy for me to know what, where and when all my activities were each day, including my flights and connections. I can’t wait for Patty to help me book my next travel adventure. Thanks Patty!
