Great preparation and fabulous trip

Loved the facilitation of the cultural experiences. We really didn’t have to worry about any logistics, details, etc….just experiencing and enjoying the cultural interactions.

All the plans were beautifully executed.

Most recently, this was the fourth time we worked with TCS to build out a trip to Europe and the second time this year. In June we took a 19 day trip to London-Santorini-Athens-Paris and in October a 19 day trip to Florence-Rome-Amsterdam. On both trips, there was no detail left behind starting with arrival at the airports. We are well traveled, however, nobody likes a new airport or waiting in line. VIP airport assistance was phenomenal - fast tracked with no line thru customs on the way in and luggage tagged and dropped and thru security on the way out faster than any combination of priority programs in the US. There were times we looked at each and thought how can we ever travel again without this? Once in our destination, our assistant and driver were always waiting ready to take us to the hotel. Each hotel, which we collaborated on, was exquisite and TCS ensured the hotels had our room preferences including floral, beverages, allergies, etc. as well as knowing about a special occasion. Together with a dedicated travel program planner we discussed both specific sights or experiences and other times we weren't sure so they provided recommendations. The experiences we had with TCS ranged from a fabulous day on the Aegean aboard a yacht to see ancient Greek temples to a quiet afternoon in Rome for a private tasting of local cheese and wine to private tours of Ruinart and Dom Perignon, and the most memorable ever, a romantic anniversary dinner atop a terrace overlooking all of Florence with champagne of the same brand we had at our wedding and the same vintage of our wedding year, a sea of red roses, a soprano, and finishing with a cake replicating the top layer of our wedding cake. The details were many and the execution was flawless. The quality of the guides TCS connected us with was really a key part of what has made us come back again and again. Every guide we had on every one of our trips we have remained in touch with after returning and we have been back to see several of them a second time. It is the difference between just going on a tour and having an unforgettable experience. TCS is genuinely interested and makes a point of getting to know their client and build a long term relationship both before a trip and afterwards. The experiences, destinations, and people they chose to lead us through the discovery and reconnection in the past year have truly given us a lifetime of memories. Traveling stress-free, with however you define luxury - hotels, car and driver, little details and over the top details all handled, local guides, private and unique out of the way experiences, no lines, and feeling safe, secure, and valued - this is how TCS has made us feel each and every time.

The entire experience was great. Every detail was taken care of. The best hotels, wonderful meals at every stop, and the rest: transportation, visits to sites, guides. Truly the best of the best.

The trip was very well organized. We covered so much in such a short time. The staff was great. the food on the plane was just ok but everything else was great. WE were totally exhausted when we got home. I would have liked more down time. and time to enjoy some of the hotels. We had a lot of parties, maybe a little too many. but all and all we loved the trip

We would give TCS 10 stars if we could! TCS executed an incredible adventure. Every detail was covered, every lecture was timely and interesting and every detail was perfectly done– even anticipated. This was our first Group Tour after being apprehensive for years. TCS knows how to do everything right.

If you have ever thought about taking a trip around the world, this is who you want to do it with. Just wow. The best parts of this trip are a total surprise, so I'm not going to ruin them for you here. TCS is amazing, and it was more like a lovely dream than a trip. When you see the Southern Cross for the first time, you'll understand just why you came this way.
