Russell Crowe with owner Matt

Matt has Traveled extensively around the world and has dived all over the world. Matt & his travel agent staff in Folsom want to give you personalized service that you can only get from the smaller agencies. He will research every avenue to give you the BEST VALUE with no unwelcome surprises. Not all travel agencies are alike. Some just quote you a price, without researching it. WE will NEVER do that. We always look for the BEST VALUE, not just the cheapest deal. Some of those so-called deals are cheap for a reason. We investigate all of the angles, and come up with the best plan for your vacation. We realize that you work hard for your money, and we too will work hard to make it a great trip.

• We'll make this your best "escape" ever !
• We want every trip to be a TRIP OF A LIFETIME !
• We value our relationships with our clients, with most of our business coming from the referrals of past vacationers.

SO...... If your tired of surfing the net, and tired of going around in circles, and being more confused than before....STOP, and just call or e-mail us with your travel desires. Tell us what you want, and watch us put it all together.
