Dean is a very knowledgeable travel agent who is well-travelled himself and has lots of great advice. He spent a lot of time preparing an on-line version of our Peru itinerary in an app which had links and was full of information. We used it every day and it was an excellent resource. - Susan G.

Excellent. Dean is very professional and always give you a choice of the trips - Irene R.

Dean provided excellent recommendations for our trip to Canada. We had a great time! - Ling L.

Dean was great in the details. He even told us what the bridge was named to cross in Venus to get to our hotel!!!. Talk about knowing useful information! Great job Dean. Thanks - Arthur R.

When my son and I met with Dean Barreca last Christmas to discuss a father-son vacation in July, all we had in mind was camping in the Grand Canyon. Dean spent a lot of time asking us about our interests, travel preferences, and wish-list of vacation spots. A few days later he told us we should avoid the Grand Canyon in July because temperatures usually exceed 40 degrees, which could make for an uncomfortable week. Dean was absolutely right! Instead, we explored other options he presented and decided on a 7-day tour of the US Southwest that included a day at the Grand Canyon, plus Yosemite, Death Valley, the Sierra Nevada mountains, and 3 iconic California cities. What an incredible treat of terrains, temperatures, and magnificent natural wonders. And the urban stops were tons of fun, too. My son and I had an amazing experience together that we'll share and remember forever, and we would never have had this incredible experience without Dean's patience, insights, & knowledge. - Peter S.

Working with Dean on planning our anniversary trip was an absolute pleasure. For years I used to do the planning for all our Vacations but this time, due to work commitments, I wasn't able to. We relied on Dean to plan out our trip based on the conversations we had over the phone, and he did an amazing job. The services he offered are a lot better and more detailed then any other travel agent we have ever spoken with. He got to understand what we liked and didn't like and based on this consultation he suggested some amazing trips for us. In the end we picked Peru as our destination and from start to finish Dean and Lima Tours took great care of us. I look forward to booking our next vacation with Dean. - Kartik N.

Dean has booked an Oceania Cruise through the Mediterranean for Fall 2014. He answered all questions, made valuable suggestions and has followed up to see how we are doing. Having recommended Dean's services to friends, Dean contacted both us and our friends in immediate followup which we found to be very good as did our friends. - Rodney G.

I've been dealing with Dean since he started in this business and as an avid cruiser I've had nothing but positive experiences in all of my cruise vacations handled by Dean. He is attentive, efficient and a pleasure to deal with and works hard to get the best price, service and meet all of my needs! Bravo Dean!! - Virginia D.

Wonderful cruise - everything was perfect! Service, food, entertainment was all fantastic! Looking forward to the next one ... thanks for your planning and efforts! Great trip! - Frank L.

My family and I went on a trip south. It was a great vacation spot. I've used Dean 4 times now and I'm pleased at how speedy he takes care of things. Quite pleased. :-) - Edward W.

Dean always gives us fabulous fast, friendly service and always seem to throw in an upgrade or little extra. I have dealt with him for over 10 years now and would strongly recommend booking your next vacation with Dean!!! Looking forward to booking my next vacation this winter with you :) - Pamela B.

Dean is a great advisor who is helpful and organized and works in a timely manner. I am a repeat customer as I have always been happy with his service. - Susan G.

We use Deans services every time we travel. It does not matter where we go and for how long. From a week in the Bahamas to a weekend in Ottawa or Quebec City or a month in Europe! The hotels he suggests are always in a great and convenient location, high quality and we are always amazed how he keeps in touch before, during and after we go away. Thank you Dean for arranging our great 4 day get away to beautiful Ottawa and for our stay at The Chateau Laurier. - Fernanda C.

Dean, once again you have outdid yourself when it comes to creating an experience that is second to none. From the initial contact you were uncanning at uncovering our every need and want. Thank you for another fantastic vacation - Cheryl V.

Dean is very knowledgeable about the cruise ships. Gives good advise on what would interest us. It was a pleasure working with Dean on our booking, and would recommend him to everyone we know. Keep up the great work Dean. Dean really enjoys his work. It was a pleasure to do our booking with you. Hope to book another trip soon. - Pasquale P.

My wife and I have worked with Dean three times now, and his knowledge and expertise were, as usual, invaluable. This trip had its "ups" and "downs", unlike our previous two, but Dean was a steady hand we could rely on - even thousands of miles away - in helping us navigate the "downs", and we benefited greatly from his pre-departure advice and planning help. In fact, we elected not to follow some advice, to our detriment, but that is too long a story to go into now. We will use Dean again, no doubt. - Richard L.

Dean is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful! He listens to what is important to the client! Every time I have asked Dean to plan a trip for my husband and I he delivers something that is beyond my expectations! - Lisa T.

Dean had challenges organizing this trip as it was affected by hurricanes that had gone through the Caribbean earlier in the year. - Harry T.

Dean got us the best rate at the place we wanted to stay. Always consistent good service! - Jan R.
