    Magic !

    That best describes our trip to Italy, to Tuscany.

    We began by visualizing our dreams and acknowledging our limitations: in our 70s with knee and back issues. We did not want to be shuttled around in a group, we did not want to see all the stunning art – just some… We wanted a leisurely pace, settle into places to get a real flavor of the region, the people, and the food – and, wow, THE FOOD !!

    And Tessa made it happen. She was very easy to work with, and fully understood our wants and needs. She built our trip around experiencing agritourism to refined, some eccentric, some cultural, but all were unique and memorable. She took care of all the detailed planning and booking. 

    We were in Florence for a few days but mostly in the countryside (“agriturismo” style), island life (Giglio Island), and a (710 year old monastery converted into a 5 star villa!  The weather was great (we know Tessa can’t control this) – so a cooking school occupied the one day of rain. The few challenges we had were driving on narrow country roads, but that’s inherent in Europe.

    Truly, one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. Thank you, Tessa!

    Tessa did an amazing job! With the trip right around the corner, and a few reservations still not completed I was so grateful for Tessa’s quick and quality work. She found great options and communicated everything very clearly. I was so impressed, I’m working with Tessa to book an anniversary trip for my parents in Tuscany, Italy! Highly recommend working with her on travels near and far.

    Tessa at Honey Sun Travel curated an absolutely unforgettable two-week trip to Germany for my husband and me. From the very beginning, she listened carefully to our wishes and crafted an itinerary that perfectly matched our needs and desires. Every detail, from the flights to the lodging, restaurants, and attractions, was thoughtfully planned to ensure we had the best possible experience. Tessa even made sure we were aware of local customs like tipping and business hours, which made our trip so much smoother. If you're looking to create incredible memories without the hassle of planning every detail yourself, I highly recommend Tessa and Honey Sun Travel. She took care of everything, allowing us to fully enjoy our vacation. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
