I usually book our own trips, but the prospect of planning and booking a 5 week trip to Europe was to overwhelming for me! I was trying to find a travel agent early this year to help plan our August trip to Croatia and Italy and was recommended Carine. From first contact I had fabulous service and very fast responses. Carine made some great suggestions and recommendations and took all the stress away from planning a 5 week trip. I would highly recommend to anyone considering, and know I will definitely be going back to Carine for our next trip!

Linda and Carine took the time to truly understand my travel preferences, interests, and budget. Their attention to detail was remarkable, as they curated an itinerary that was tailored perfectly to our needs. Their commitment to making the entire process seamless and stress-free was great. From booking flights and accommodations to arranging transfers and tours, everything was organized. We were able to embark on our journey with complete peace of mind, knowing that every aspect of my trip had been taken care of.Communication was exceptional throughout the entire planning process. Carine and Linda promptly responded to my inquiries and provided updates. Their professionalism, combined with a warm and friendly demeanour, created an incredibly positive experience.

I was recommended Carine from MTA travel by a friend in the tourism industry and it has been one of the best introductions that I have ever had. Professional and knowledgable advice regardless of where my family has travelled to and it has made the planning and preperation for our travel so much easier. No request is ever too hard and I enjoy dealing with genuinelly capable people!

They listened to my requests and gave me great advice and a number of options with flights, accommodation etc.Communication with them was easy and immediate. I highly recommend Carine and Linda as their assistance is invaluable and they make travel easy.In fact, they’re already organising our next trip.

Over an extended period (around 15 we think) Carine has been efficient, knowledgeable and very quick with providing solutions to problems.I would hate to have to book a lengthy overseas trip myself - it is so demanding.We appreciate everything Carine has done for us over the years.Cathie & ColinTasmania

Carine Boost has been our absolute saviour with international travel. Whether it's jetting back to the US quite suddenly for a death in the family or a luxury jaunt across the North America and Europe to celebrate a big decade birthday, or even a luxe Maldives honeymoon that had to navigate the various restrictions, tests and travel declarations in a COVID world. Carine has incredible knowledge of destinations and provided superb recommendations for the perfect places to stay in Rome, Paris and on the Amalfi Coast. She has been so incredibly understanding with last minute flight changes and done everything to make sure our flights, changeovers, airport and seating preferences are all taken into account. We never need worry and our bags are checked all the way through!COVID has created even more challenges with travel as we all know. Carine was right up to date with the changes in requirements and clear instructions for what we needed to do at every step of the journey.

We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary recently with the help of Linda to organise an amazing staycation at the Ritz-Carlton in Perth (for 3 nights). Linda was extremely helpful giving us options at various Perth hotels before we settled on the Ritz-Carlton - we were not disappointed! The bonus of booking with Linda was she was able to offer us "virtuoso inclusions" such as room upgrade at time of check-in, daily breakfast for 2, $140 AUD credit to spend on dining/beverages/spa services/valet parking, early check in and late check out subject to availability. The most wonderful surprise was arriving back to our room after being out for lunch on our anniversary and finding a bottle of champagne on ice, a framed photo of myself & my husband along with a note from both Linda and the Ritz-Carlton wishing us a happy anniversary and to enjoy a celebration drink on them! The perfect touch to a magical stay, thanks again Linda for all your help organising our special anniversary.

I had booked a Pilbara tour with Crooked Compass but due to Covid this was cancelled. Corine then put together a self-driven tour that encapsulated all the main points from the tour. This included a helicopter ride, snorkeling and walking in Ningaloo Park and hiring cars to drive myself around Karratha and Exmouth.Corine answered all my questions, even some inane ones, and was helpful and flexible. She managed to keep all the great aspects of the tour intact while giving me ideas for other things I could do.All in all, a brilliant trip. Thanks Corine.

We have used Carine & Linda a few times now and they are incredible. So responsive and nothing is too much trouble. And even a lovely message when we arrived home to see how the trip was. We will continue to use these ladies without question. Sure it’s easy enough to arrange things yourself but the difference here is that they have amazing deals that I can’t find beaten elsewhere and often it really is quicker to get someone in-the-know to help you organize your trips. Thanks again ladies for impeccable and efficient service.

I found this company online & can honestly say, without a doubt the best travel agent/consultants I have used over a 30 year period of travel (extensive).Carine is not only knowledgeable, professional & a total delight, nothing is too hard. Working with constant border changes, & also our own need to make changes to our existing travel plans, (which normally sends a agent into a spiral) is handled with total ease. I cannot recommend Carine high enough . I certainly plan on using Carine for all of our travel plans ( when you find someone as great as this, you dont want to lose her)
