Cassandra is very thorough. Recently she went the extra mile to get us cheaper flights than the tour company was able to provide. She also booked us on a direct flight from Orlando. Other couples on the same tour had to make connections in Chicago and Denver. We are so thankful to have Cassandra as our travel agent.
