Trip to Singapore & Okinawa

The trip to Tokyo, Japan was amazing. The itinerary was detailed and easy to follow. I was nervous about how the metro worked but was fully explained in detail how the stations worked during a meeting with you. The trip was amazing and fun, having you plan took the stress away and the anxiety I had about traveling.

Trip to Japan

Alissa was extremely thorough, thoughtful, and helpful in every way. She made getting ready for our vacation stress free from the moment we contacted her to the moment we got back home. She took everyone into consideration and made sure there wasnʼt one point in our vacation where anyone would be excluded due to dietary preferences or any other reason. Hiring Alissa was the best decision.

Alissa planned a trip to exact specifications and desires. As a family of three with different interests and

Trip to Vietnam

Using Watts Next Travel services was an excellent choice! Our trip ran extremely smoothly as all accommodations, drivers and tours were well organized. The choice of accommodations were consistent with what we requested and the activities allowed for us to get a taste of the local culture. The best part was the attention Alissa gave us while we were on the trip. She checked in often and was always supportive of any extra help we needed.

Trip to Thailand & Vietnam

As a person who loves to travel, but does not enjoy making decisions and planning, I cannot recommend Watts Next Travel enough. Alissa has planned two of our trips so far and I look forward to working with her on our next. She goes above and beyond to make sure your vacation is stress free. Her food recommendations always hit. Thanks Alissa!

Trip to Vietnam & Taiwan

This was the best trip ever! Alissa took such good care of me. She pinpointed the best places and hotels for me to visit. I felt so pampered. I am not a traveler, but after this experience, I think I’m becoming one thanks to the wonderful planning by Alissa from Tern. I will highly recommend them to my friends. I don’t think my vacation could have been any better, it was perfection! It was magical! A good memory that will last a lifetime.
