Oyster Travel

Thank you Melanie! Our family had a wonderful time in Kona, Hawaii. The resort Melanie recommended and booked for us was absolutely perfect. We were looking for something really nice, but also something family-​friendly. We had a seamless experience with oyster travel. One of the best vacations we’ve ever had!

I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate Oyster travel services! Their service is both very professional and prompt. Recently my husband and I decided to take a cruise. Because it was at the last minute, Oyster Travel had to move quickly to find one that would fit our needs. It is a great deal! And we needed airline travel as well. Although it was a bit complicated, they worked efficiently and found us a great deal. It would have taken me hours to find an airline that would fit with my schedule and I would never have been able to find the deal they did. In short, the service is tops, I feel I am getting a great value for my money, and all of this was done in a short amount of time. I would highly recommend Oyster Travel for all your travel needs!

As an avid backpacker, I live to travel. I work to travel, but I’ve been busy. Way to busy to plan a vacation. As a DIY, I usually shop for the best rates. I’m a budget backpacker and I’ve never really thought of using a travel agent, because if I did go somewhere fancy and nice I probably wasn’t paying for it.
Although Melanie specializes in packages, Hawaii and cruises… she can really send you anywhere in the world!!! Melanie was able to get me a rate lower than I could find on the Internet for a trip to Central America. She also suggested a better itinerary than I was originally looking at. I also got a detailed unbiased report on Nicaragua and Costa Rica with information about transfers. The great thing about going to less traveled places is there aren’t as many tourist, but the bad thing is transportation can be really unreliable. Melanie was able to provide a great affordable solution with a reliable shuttle company which is the best way to travel especially in Costa Rica as I used Inter-​bus last time which the bus overheated in the jungle on my way to the airport.
As a precaution, I got trip insurance. I never get trip insurance. NEVER!!! Turns out, I needed it this time. Even though it didn’t work out on my end, I would definitely use Melanie again. Now, I just need to pick new dates and new places! If you want someone who knows travel, give her a call. And if you enjoy your trip, I’d love to hear about it!!!

Melanie is extremely knowledgable about world travel and more importantly gives great service, following up timely and offering other ideas if she finds an alternative that she knows you may enjoy or find more cost effective.

Thank you Melanie for planning and organizing the family trip of a lifetime for us! Our «intimate» group of 20 familiy members, as young as 6 months had a flawless trip to a kid friendly resort in Arizona. Thank you again Melanie, for finding the resort, and taking care of all of our needs!
We appreciate your excellent service and professionalism.

Melanie planned and followed through on my honeymoon trip last June. She did a wonderful job finding great places for us to stay and things to do in Costa Rica and helped with all the travel arrangements to Petit St. Vincent. Our flights went a little awry on Fathers’ Day evening and we called her and she went out of her way to help us. Everything was fixed and we were able to enjoy the second half of our honeymoon.
Melanie is great and I can’t wait for her to plan our next trip!

Melanie Hibbs sent my husband and I on the honeymoon of our dreams. She truly listened to what we were looking and found the perfect cruise for us. Having never been on a cruise before, she really prepared us for the experience and we were able to take advantage of all our ship had to offer. She helped us plan and book exciting excursions that we would have missed out on if not for her expertise! Before we left she made sure we had all the documents and information we needed and we had the time of our lives! She will be my travel agent for life!

Melanie has a great personality. She is so very easy to work with and her prices are the best. I know that my trip will be planned with the sites and sounds I have been hoping to experience.
Thanks Melanie for your dedication to making my trip a memorable one.
