A Word from AwayBug’s Happy Clients

“We used Away Bug Travel for our family trip this summer. Angie gave us several different resorts to consider and we made our choice from them. It was a difficult choice since each of them were exactly what we were looking for. She made all arrangements and everything was meticulously done. Our week in Jamaica was the most stress-free trip and we loved every minute! Can’t wait to use Away Bug Travel again.”
Nikki R. / Jamaica

“We just returned from a fantastic trip to England, planned by Angie. Though we knew where we wanted to go, she found the accommodation, how to best tackle London so we weren’t overspending unnecessarily, had great suggestions, and thought of things we didn’t (like a private car from airport to accommodation for 6 people and luggage!). Angie is a seasoned traveler herself, which really helps. In each step of planning she presented choices for us. If we had questions, she was quick to respond with an answer, even while on our trip. We highly recommend Angie and AwayBug!”
Carrie L. / London

“We canceled our trip when COVID-19 came on the scene but the cruise company didn’t want to give us the refund we were due. Angie was so diligent and would not give up. She continued to work on our behalf until she wrestled it out of them. I could not be more impressed by her dedication to her clients. We look forward to working with her on a trip once it is safe to go.”
Myra S. / Greece

“Angie did an fantastic job planning our trip to Thailand! I’m a planner myself, but was simply too busy to do all the research for hotels and tours – Angie took care of everything. She learned what our interests were and took care of the rest, including airfare, hotels, transfers, tours, trip insurance, and pulling together other recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area. She always confirmed before booking but we were always happy with her first suggestion. It was really nice to not have to worry about the details so I could focus what spare time I did have researching the ‘fun stuff’ – areas we were visiting and other things we wanted to do. I received a well organized packet of information prior to our trip. It was a great experience working with AwayBug Travel!”
Lisa L. / Thailand

Meet Your Travel Advisor – Angie Fanning

I caught the “travel bug” early—and haven’t stopped exploring since! Today, I love working with clients who want to explore beyond the surface, who aren’t satisfied with the “just check it off the list” status quo. And—who don’t want to lift a finger to plan it themselves (I’d rather you save your energy for your travel adventures, anyway!).
