Testimonials
Amazing Kenya Safari
“Sue guided us every step of the way. She had to coordinate members of 2 families coming from 5 different cities and figure out the logistics so that we all made it to Istanbul and then Nairobi on time, and in comfort. From facilitating rapid airport/customs processing, to making sure we all got our visas, Sue was instrumental in making the trip smooth. Her expert advice on which Kenya preserves to choose with limited vacation time for our kids, and what activities to do to made the trip so special! The balloon ride over Maasai Mara was a highlight!” - Merry
Trip to Australia & New Zealand
“Sue helped us hire private tour guides for Sydney which were outstanding--we were there for 5 days and had wonderful experience--especially the private tour of the zoo to hang out with the Koalas--and great wine tour and tour of the Opera House. The Oceania cruise was exceptional and she helped arrange our business class flights round trip were great. All in all another home run from Sue.” - Cathy
Patient Travel Advisor
“Susan was accommodating and knowledgeable about my travels in Morocco. She exercised great patience with my special requests and tour schedule changes. She checked in several times before and during the trip to make certain every detail was nailed down. Her oversight gave me confidence as someone traveling alone, that I could reach her and depend on assistance if necessary. Susan has my hearty recommendation!” - Mary
2 week trip to Europe
“Sue masterfully created an itinerary for a 2-week trip to Europe on very short notice...and with a limited budget! She offered her insightful feedback and suggestions to help us make the best decisions for our trip. Sue was responsive and went beyond the call of duty to make sure that we were comfortable with all of the arrangements and that we had an enjoyable trip. I highly recommend Sue...she is a joy to work with!” - Kimberly
honeymoon in southeast asia
"Sue worked diligently throughout several months to help me and my wife plan our perfect month-long honeymoon in South East Asia. She provided valuable advice and insights concerning where in Vietnam and Cambodia we should visit and recommended tours and location she knew we would like based on her understanding of our preferences, interests, and objectives. Moreover, Sue was always lightning-fast in responding to our emails and queries (and boy did we have many!) She diligently followed up with resorts to ensure we would receive upgrades -- and we always did, including an over-water villa in Cambodia. There was nothing we asked Sue that she couldn't do for us and we were so grateful to her efforts and wisdom. We cannot recommend her enough." - Alejo & Abby

Best advisor I ever had!
Fantastic. She is Really good and very knowledgeable. Great travel advisor. - Fran
Galapagos Expedition
Sue made all the arrangements for my trip with my teen-age granddaughter, who wanted to learn about the Galapagos Islands. She found the best cruise ship at the best price, got us a special credit, a cabin upgrade, and made sure that my special dietary needs were met. The Silversea cruise was superior in every way, and it was the easiest trip that I've ever taken, thanks to Sue. I won't plan any more travel without her kind assistance. - Janice Moore
Ski Trip to Val d'Isere France
Sue is extremely helpful when planning a trip. She responds timely and pays close attention to all details whether we are taking the kids or doing adults only. I wouldn't hesitate to call or email her. It's such a relief to find somebody reliable who can offer ideas and make all the arrangements, plus stay in the budget!
Birthday trip to CHARLESTON, SC
Susan helped plan a trip to Charleston SC for my husbands birthday. As always , she makes sure every detail is correct and taken care of. She also surprised us by sending champagne to the room to help us celebrate. Thanks Susan! - Joyce D
So easy to work with!
Susan was so easy to work with. She Responded to all our questions, suggestions and concerns immediately. When we wanted to add an event at the last minute, she made it happen. And she never got annoyed with our endless emails! We really appreciated her list of "tips" for our trip, from how to pack to what to tip, etc. we referred to them often. I would definitely recommend Susan and hope to use her again.
anniversary trip to Cancun
My husband and I just returned from the most wonderful trip to a resort about 40 minutes from Cancun. Sue did a fabulous job finding the most beautiful, peaceful resort for us to celebrate our anniversary. She took care of all the details and made sure that our trip went smoothly. She is so knowledgeable, I can’t even imagine planning a trip without her expertise. Looking forward to many more trips to come. Thanks Sue! - R. Greene
Costa Rica
My family and I just returned from a fantastic trip to Nayara Springs Resort in Costa Rica. Susan did a fabulous job with the planning and all the details for the trip. She was thorough , professional and made sure everything was perfect even when we had a last minute change of plans! Thanks Sue! - Joyce D
cruise to The Caribbean
Sue helped us to put our winter cruise together to the Carribbean. We had a fabulous time and she helped with all the details. When I was on the trip I had a question about our pick up and she responded right away and got me what I needed. Great service! - Cathy L
Thailand Honeymoon
After spending a year planning a wedding, planning a honeymoon seemed like a daunting task. My friend recommended Susan to me, and I am so grateful she did. She planned our dream honeymoon, neither my husband or I would change a thing about it. She listened to what we wanted, and she put together a vacation that seemed like it really was made just for the two of us. Not only was it so much fun and relaxing but it was easy! We didn't have to worry about transportation or any of the small details the whole 3 weeks we spent in Thailand. I would recommend her and use her again in a second!
ireland & England vacation
Susan helped my wife and I plan a trip to Ireland and England. We wanted to walk the Kerry Way, but at our age we didn't want to be roughing it. She connected us with Back-roads, which turned out to be perfect. In London she found us a place to stay between Hyde Park and Paddington Station; a perfect location for what we wanted to do at a reasonable cost. In addition to the normal London things, we wanted to visit Chatsworth in the Peaks district. Susan was able to create a private tour that more than met our expectations; including a private tour of the great house, a visit to Blenheim and to Oxford where we were able to get into interesting places without being in a big tour group. Working with Susan you won't end up on the cheapest tour out there -- you will end up on the special vacation that meets your own desires and expectations. And it still won't cost a fortune. - Mark
trip to Uganda
Sue planned my wonderful trip to Uganda. Every detail was addressed and it all went smoothly. She even warned me how physically challenging the hike through the "impenetrable forest" to see the gorillas would be, and she was right! I highly recommend her services. - Leslie
peru vacation
Sue booked our trip to Peru this past February. We were so happy with all the arrangements she made for us from our flights to the Tour company Condor Travel. we didn't have to worry about a thing which made our trip so enjoyable. I would definitely recommend Sue for any of your travel needs. - Kelly R

norway cruise
Sue helped us plan a wonderful cruise to Norway. She gave us lots of information beforehand, which helped us plan what to do in each port. That was very helpful. I would recommend her to anyone planning a trip. - Traveler from Portland, OR
World's best travel agent
Sue has been our travel agent since 2010. She is wonderful to work with - conscientious, creative, respectful of our needs and preferences, well-informed on travel all around the world. She has become a good friend in the process of working with us. I recommend her 100% and hope that anyone reading this review will give Sue Morley the opportunity to make memories for them. - Babbie Cameron
travel agent with amazing connections
Sue has helped us on both small and large trips, from short weekends at in state Ritz, business stays in Las Vegas at the Four Seasons, to planning assistance on a trip to Paris and Barcelona. I enjoy an active role in planning my own trips and Sue is great about using her truly world-wide network of vendors and other agents to help find exactly what we want. Her affiliations also get us great deals and nice amenities at great places like the Fairmont Kea Lani in Hawaii, Ritz Carltons, Four Seasons, and many others. She is the best! - Rusty
family cruise to alaska
Sue planed a trip / cruise to Alaska with 4 of our grandchildren, on a small 490 passenger cruise ship. Our oldest, then 11 year old granddaughter told me how well all was thought out and the side trips well advised. Then our cruise this spring to the eastern Caribean again was well advised and planed. We plan to do a similar cruise in the near future.Currently Sue is organizing and thoghether we have a 4 country trip to Europe planed for this summer.Without Sue I never could have planed a trip like the one to Europe and I plan to use her servises as long as we still can travel.

25th Wedding Anniversary
Susan was awesome! She paid attention to all the details and made sure our 25th celebration was memorable. We will definitely refer Susan to other friends and family. Thanks again!! - Team Thomas
First trip to Hawaii
To describe Sue as knowledgeable, experienced, easy to work with and personable would be understatements. She knows what she’s doing and seems to be able to anticipate your next question. This was our first trip to Hawaii, and her knowledge of resorts and other amenities was top shelf. She just became our travel agent from here forward. - Connie
Heavenly Trip to Greece
“Sue put together the trip of a lifetime and took care of every detail! We felt prepared, supported and pampered and got to experience everything we had hoped for and more. She is knowledgeable and was able to offer suggestions that made the traveling experience seamless. It was such a joy to work with her and we plan to use her for our future travel!” - Rebecca

Her personal love of travel and vast travel experiences make her a wonderful travel advisor. I highly recommend her!” - Susan
African Safari
“Our travel advisor, Sue Morley, took care of us from the moment we decided we wanted to take an African Safari to the time we got home. No detail was too small to make sure we had every question answered and were well-prepared. It was a bucket list vacation for us, and we had never traveled so far or for so long before, so we had a lot of questions. She walked us through every step, directed us to specific websites to make sure we got the right visas and vaccinations, and regularly kept in contact to answer new questions as we thought of them. She even sent us a two-page document of travel tips she had accumulated over her years of travel to help us - some of them were real gems and we'll keep that for future travel! She checked in with us while we were gone and also when we got back. I can't sing her praises enough. I highly recommend Sue and will always use her as my travel advisor. I can't imagine having tried to tackle this trip without her!”
Simply the best travel advisor
“Working with Sue is a pleasure. Her attention to detail, her listening ability, her timely responses, and most of all her caring attitude are what make her stand out as a travel advisor. This was our second trip organized by Sue. On our first trip, we had some health mishaps and she checked in with us almost daily even though she was on vacation herself! On this trip, she also checked in part way through and then immediately after we got back. The trip went like clockwork partly because of her planning and partly because she works with high-quality, reliable local tour providers. Our private guides contacted us before the day we were to meet them and they were all excellent, meeting our needs perfectly. Being a travel advisor is not just a job for Sue, it's a passion to provide you with the best experience possible.” - Steph
Unforgettable trip in South America
“Susan really helped make this trip a success. The tours she set up in Buenos Aires were excellent but what was over-the-top were the Tango lessons and the side trip to Iguazu Falls......two of the best experiences in my life. She also set me up in a lovely boutique hotel in South Beach (in Miami). This is the second amazing trip Susan has helped me with. I am sure there will more.” - Steve
Palace Hotel San Francisco

Blissful beach birthday
Sue helped me plan a girls' beach/yoga trip to celebrate my birthday. She found a 5-star all-inclusive beach resort so we wouldn't have to worry about spending money while on vacation. We couldn't have been happier with the quality of the food/drinks, service and yoga. We found our inner peace at the beach! Thanks Sue! - Shashi

Working with Susan was great. She found. Location and house that fit our family needs for holiday vacation. Easy to work with and answered all our questions. - Rita
Sonora Resort in British Columbia
Susan helped me to plan a summer vacation for the members of our family – all 10 of us. This can be a complicated endeavor with 10 different ages, interests, etc. and Susan had to work with me! I am constantly asking questions, being concerned about flights, cost, location, what is there to do, and a thousand other thoughts. AND you never know when I will come up with these. Susan was gracious and worked through each one with me. We found a vacation of a lifetime and everything worked like clockwork. There were things along the way that I was concerned about, but there was no reason for it. Everything was great. - Julianne H
New York City vacation
Just returned from a fabulous trip to New York City all planned and organized by my fantastic advisor, Susan Morley. No detail was overlooked and the hotel she suggested was unbelievable. We stayed at the Edition by Madison Square Park and the y were so accommodating and the service was superb. Thanks again Susan for another fabulous trip. - Nancy A
Our first cruise
I cannot say enough about how helpful Sue Morley was in helping to plan my first cruise. Not having any idea of how to book a cruise, what questions to ask, what things to schedule, or how to plan, made planning a cruise for my mom and me a bit stressful; however, once Sue entered my world, the worries went away. She provided great advice, helped arrange different services and responded quickly to many of my crazy questions. I will most definitely enlist Sue's assistance when planning my future adventures.
Hotel del Coronado, San Diego
Coronado and the Del are so much fun! Sue helped us get a wonderful room at the Del. Thanks again for helping us plan a beach get-a-way!
florence vacation planning
Our trip was amazing. Everything went perfectly. We especially loved Chianti and the hotel there. The only thing we regret is not having enough time in Florence. Since we took a day trip we wanted an extra day in Florence to be able to see it more. The day trip was completely worth it though. Thank you so much for all the planning. The trip definitely went well. - Scott & Audrie
belize vacation
Thanks Sue!!! We loved our trip to Belize ....perfect amount of relaxing and adventure. - Leslie
southeast asia
Recently, I have returned from a trip to SE Asia organized by Sue Morley. Although I have travelled often over the years, I have not had the assistance of a travel agent. Sue was introduced to me through a mutual friend and I drove her crazy before I left asking about details (where was I staying on this date, how was I to get to that airport, wasn't there an earlier flight – all those little irritating and necessary things involved in making connections in strange places where one doesn't speak the language). Through it all, Sue did not lose her patience and always seem to have the answer. Just before I left, itineraries appeared that had the details – who knew that it worked that way?
The trip was filled with many lovely experiences that I could not have found on my own (one example would be the cooking classes – there were six). I was continually amazing at the simplicity of the connections. Each and every time the guides were where we were told they would be, a car was waiting, and the hotels had been confirmed. In countries where movement is not easy, we progressed on schedule cramming many activities into our days.
The problem, of course, is that I am now spoiled and have no wish to return to my previous method of planning -- it never worked out nearly as well. - Jennifer Ryan
biking trip through croatia
Sue Morley has arranged several trips for me, always with efficiency and sensitivity to my tastes and needs. My daughter and I did a bike trip in Croatia this year with Backroads, and Sue made all ancillary arrangements. Her advice turned out to be more than helpful; it made the difference in truly enjoying everywhere we went and stayed. - Happy Traveler
yosemite hiking trip
Susan arranged a six-day hiking trip to Yosemite in mid-June. From the hotel in San Francisco prior to leaving for the park to the fabulous hotels in Yosemite, our needs were flawlessly addressed. Selecting Backroads for this adventure was perfect. I needed a stress- reduction trip and this did the trick. I can't wait for another adventure - Sheryl
adventure travel
We have used Sue to plan 2 major trips over the last 4 years. We journeyed to East Africa, visiting Kenya and Tanzania, and did not experience any hiccups along the way and the itinerary was fantastic. Beautiful accommodations,and the safaris were amazing! Our other trip was to The Galapagos Islands with a group, and again could not ask for a better itinerary to see and do everything we wanted. After the Galapagos my husband and I journeyed to Peru, to experience Machu Picchu. Sue set us up with our own personal guide and we were so well cared for. Sue pays attention to details, and arranges trips that utilize reputable tour services, and are personalized for you! -UsMuellers
galapagos islands
My 60th birthday was spent at sea in the Galapagos Islands. Susan Morley arranged the flawless celebration trip for me and my daughter. From the charming hotel in Quito and the excursion to Otavalo market to the perfect boat, Susan planned a perfect trip. On my actual birthday we crossed the equator several times accompanied by jumping dolphins. Susan listens and takes into account the type of trip you want. I recommended her to a friend who recently traveled to New Zealand with her and had a fabulous time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Journeys Around The World again.

Thumbs up for Susan Morley
Susan was very receptive to all of our input and responded in kind, always with enthusiasm and efficiency. One outstanding example: I am hearing impaired and asked if (as in many other places in Europe) our driver's car was equipped with a "PA system," including a mini mike for the guide and speakers in the car. She checked into it and let me know they were making a special installation for our visit!!! That's customer service.....and satisfaction. - Elsie
Fabulous Travel Agent
Fabulous! Sue ran with the little information we gave her and planned a terrific vacation for us. She sent gentle reminders when we needed to do something on our end and was a delight to work with. She was thoughtful and sent little "gifts" to both our cruise ship and the hotel. Those were pleasant surprises. I can't wait to book my next trip with Sue. - Martha M.

Malaysia travel
Sue Morley helped me make arrangements to travel to Malaysia but international events (the missing Malaysia Airlines airplane! )made the trip more challenging than I anticipated. I don't know what I would have done without Sue's intervention. She helped smooth over the missed flights and missing information and I arrived in to everything on time. - Leslie
group travel agent
Sue Morley is the best travel agent with whom I have ever worked. In the past, she has helped me with group travel. This year, she facilitated a personal trip, and she even helped me to problem-solve after I returned.

Many thanks, Sue, for continued awesome service. - Betty Brown
birthday travel
The celebration of my 70th birthday was only enhanced by Sue's excellent assistance. Her knowledge of the best aircraft seats and most cost effective choices can't be outdone. She kept us up-to-date and informed every step of the way. Wouldn't travel without her help. - Cliff & Sandy
India group trip
Sue helped orchestrate our medical/dental group to a remote part of India. This was not a typical adventure. Sue worked with us for months to ensure its success. She is knowledgeable, efficient, a delight to work with...so good that I am having her help me to plan another trip now. - Betty Brown
The Galapagos Islands
Sue planned our trip to the Galapagos Islands and it was perfect. Every side trip, transfer and accommodation was top notch, the boat and guides on the actual sail were excellent, we had a choice of some excellent side trips, and the entire cost was more reasonable than i expected! Great for a group trip or individual trave!
iceland, ecuador, the galapagos and norway
I have used Journeys Around the World now for few trips and have loved each of them. I have now had wonderful vacations in Iceland, Ecuador, The Galapagos and Norway. I am definitely contacting Journeys Around the World for my next vacation and have recommended them to several friends.
large group trip to india
Sue Morley, from Journeys Around the World has done a terrific job helping me get 24 people to India. At one point, while at the Delhi airport, we needed help and gave her a call. Although it was 2:00 am her time, Sue took care of everything!

Sue is a wonderful travel agent. She is on top of everything and keeps in touch throughout the entire process, from the planning until after your return. I would highly recommend her for all of your travel needs.

kona, hawaii Honeymoon
My wife and I were married at the end of January, 2016 and our honeymoon trip in Kona, Hawaii was extraordinary, thanks in no small part to Ms. Sue Morley. She knew where the best locations were and all those things that we would value on this once-in-a-lifetime experience. For instance, we were able to get a deluxe oceanview room, which was a free upgrade with Sue, that really made relaxing on the lanai special. We also were able to find an amazing deal based on the recommendations she gave us, based on reviews of professionals in the industry. The trip went so well, and we are so thankful we had Sue to help us. I would recommend Sue very strongly to anyone and know you'll be happy working with her! - David C
incredible attention to detail
I have used Sue Morley from Journeys Around the World many times for trips all over the world. She is an excellent travel agent, with tremendous attention to detail and personalized service. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to plan a trip. - Joyce D
Everything was perfect!
Once again, Sue was able to gather 4 family members from different locales and get us all on the fabulous Lindblad Galapagos trip. She navigated the covid protocols, getting my daughter from Mexico and then to Chile, and was patient with our many questions and moving parts. Everything was perfect. She's a wizard at the details and is always so kind and pleasant to work with. Her knowledge of each place and the best ways to improve the experience is invaluable. She's incredibly skilled and resourceful! Love her!! - Meredith
I Should File This Review
Re: the title of this review. Whenever we return from a trip we've created with Sue, a request for a review follows. Our response is always the same: Sue is great to work with: pleasant, knowledgeable, experienced and patient. Sometimes the latter is the most important characteristic as, especially in the Covid Era, things change. Perhaps the best summary is we keep coming back for more.
- Jean
Upgrades galore!
Susan Morley booked my sister and I at the Westin Kierland in Scottsdale. We had a wonderful time at this fab resort, but the icing on the cake were the upgrades we received because of Susan’s behind-the-scenes connections….. including an upgrade to a higher level room with gorgeous view and large balcony and breakfast for both of us for two mornings.
Rancho Trip
Susan responded to my last minute request for assistance and provided excellent options to help me realize my travel dream. As always, she was extremely helpful! Her communications are clear and informative. She made sure I had the best price and package available. - Pat
