Colleen made our arrangements and all the attention to detail we hoped for. The itinerary and information in our travel App she created for us guided us smoothly and easily without any hitches. Thank you for making that stopover seamless. Erich G.
Colleen goes above and beyond to make sure that everything about your trip goes smoothly. Truly takes the stress out of it. My wife and I were looking into different accommodation options for our Vegas wedding and she created an entire pros and cons about all the different options, including any added amenities available, and was helpful the entire time throughout the trip as well. Would absolutely recommend her services to anyone! I went on to recommend her to a few other people in our wedding group who were still looking for hotel options and they all were extremely happy with her prompt and wonderful service as well. 10/10 would recommend.

We had an awesome Alaskan Cruise on Viking Ocean Cruises. Colleen Connelly, our travel agent, was right with us every step of the way from booking, options, ideas, helps and hints! Thank you Colleen. You helped us with an amazing bucket list trip. Viking could not have taken better care of us. Their staff was always available, friendly and efficient. David H.
My travel agent nailed it when she booked my stay in Malibu. I appreciate the welcoming emails and detailed itinerary that I receive from Colleen. She makes the booking process a breeze and traveling easier. Dawn F.
Navigating HK is never easy, between high-speed trains, the metro, and with signs often not posted in English. Colleen planned our entire 3-day trip and covered every detail from our arrival in HK, to our hotel, excursions, and our return back to HK airport. Removed a lot of potential stress, and confusion and allowed us to enjoy our stay in HK. 5-star rating and a big thumbs up to Colleen. Fabio C.
I was traveling in CO and needed a place to stay for one night in Denver at the last minute. I contacted Colleen and right away she went to work to find me a this historic B&B for me. I enjoyed my stay very much and greatly appreciate Colleen for her quick and thoughtful service. She even provided me with a list of boutiques for the next day for shopping convenience. Dawn F.
My name is Colleen Connolly, an independent travel advisor of Fora Travel. I have chased the Northern Lights in Iceland, herded cattle for two days in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and witnessed the Big 5 while on Safari in Africa, to name a few. My heart beats for the thrill of discovery and travel. Taking in sunrises and sunsets that defy description, locating those tucked-away cafes and venturing out on excursions that are a chance of a lifetime. However, what truly brings me joy is sharing these moments with others. As your travel advisor, my role goes beyond booking flights and hotels — I strive to create unforgettable adventures. Whether it's finding a secluded beachfront villa, arranging an inner tube ride down the Rio Celeste in Costa Rica or experiencing a concert in a centuries-old cathedral by candlelight, I'm here to make your journey extraordinary. Bon voyage! 🌎✨
