Hello Maria.The trip was wonderful, D&I cannot say enough about how organized, and everything ran. Thank you again with your help with the airlines in the beginning. Lodging, food, train, busses, Ship, and staff where all top of the game. Mt McKinley prices lodge when it reopens after renovation would be one of the stops for sure.

Maria went above and beyond to help me with my booking as it was a previous booking that was cancelled last year due to health issues I had. It was more than just booking, she had to send my travel certificates to the Sandals Miami office, and we had to wait to make sure it went through before my certificates expired! It did happen and we were able to book our trip. She was always available to me, and all turned out perfect! I would never hesitate to book with her again or refer my family and friends, she is the epitome of the best of the best!

Maria was always attentive to all my needs! Every time i had a question i knew she’d answer me within a couple hours! I’ll always use her for every vacation now!Monday, January 24th 2022
We had never used a travel agent before to book vacations, and always either booked ourselves or went through Royal Caribbean directly to book a cruise. This time however, we went with some friends who used Maria to get everything set up, so we did as well. She was great, there were no hiccups at all. She was able to make sure all 11 of us were set up to have the perfect cruise vacation. I am going to use her for now on, and would recommend her to anyone looking for a travel agent.

Hey Maria!! I just wanted to thank you for such an amazing honeymoon if it wasn’t for your Recommendations we would've been completely lost!! A couple just came up to us and said that the water at la toc was completely rough and they couldn’t go on the beach and I remember talking to you about how I like swimming and you recommended the grande so if it wasn’t for that we would’ve definitely been unhappy but we were totally impressed by this resort and I can thank you enough for all your help!!!Ally & Mike

Maria Tilto, is the best,Saturday, March 21st 2020
I had never used a travel agent until Chris suggested you last year for Punta Cana. It was an easy choice to come back this year for the Mexico trip! I was sold prior to the need to cancel, but your handling of the situation has elevated you to the top! You have a customer for life and will be referring you every chance I get!Thanks!
Hi Maria,
Just wanted to let you know the trip got refunded today! As I said before, I can't thank you enough for how simple you made this. I can't imagine the daily grief you are dealing with, but hang in there, hopefully all those close to you stay healthy, and we all get through this challenging time!
I want to help spread your name/business through my friends/coworkers/family/etc! Is the best way to do that friend you on Facebook and then post about this positive experience with you tagged? I'm gonna shoot you a friend request- at a minimum I'd like to post with you tagged- it's amazing how that travels in today's world.

Maria,Cruise Planners,
This travel agent is one of the Best. If is definitely an experience worth trying, when booking a trip. Maria is down to earth, honest, funny, respectful, and responsive. When calling her office if she can not answer your call, she actually is texting you apologizing for not answering because she is on the other line and without fail calls you right back. So happy to use her knowledge of traveling and cruising. Plus, this is the only place that can nickname me P.I.T.A. and get away with it, lol.
Sincerely,

Maria,There are truly no words to express our gratitude and thanks. Our honeymoon was meant to be a trip of a life time for us and it was exactly that. Each hotel you picked out in each city was perfect and unique. Each location was central to each city yet just far enough away to still be quiet and peaceful. The hotel in Rome is the oldest hotel in the city. How many people can say they slept in a hotel that has been around since the 1400's! The view in Sorrento was beyond breathtaking. The courtyard in the hotel in Florence was so peaceful and allowed us to unwind from the busy crowds. Venice - our canal view/corner room on the top floor was the perfect way to spoil us on our last leg of the trip. The hotel's amenities were incredible.
We never had to worry about transportation - you had that all lined up perfectly. Each train we rode, every private car transfer and the water taxi in Venice was well thought out and organized. Listening to other travelers describe their nightmares figuring out how to get to each destination made us even more grateful for all the behind the scenes legwork you did for us.
Our two guides in Rome for the Forum Tour and Vatican Tour were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommended you continue to use that company.
The minivan tour in Tuscany was great as far as what we saw/did.
I cant say enough about the company you used in Venice. They were like having our own personal escorts. I wish I could remember the young lady's name that picked us up from the hotel to take us to the airport. Not only did she ride with us in the water taxi, she made sure took us all the way to the Delta ticket counter inside the airport (no small feat either).
The way you placed Sorrento in the middle and Venice in the end was also very much appreciated. Rome and Florence were busy and crowded and being able to have the water/mountain views to relax with not much planned other than the gondola ride was perfect!
Thank you Thank you Thank you for truly giving us more than we could ever have hoped, dreamed or imagined!

We just returned home and I wanted thank you for all of your assistance in planning a great vacation. I know it wasn’t easy dealing with 12 travelers but you were with us every step of the way. I can’t begin to imagine how much time you spent taking care of us from air to cruise to tours in Barcelona. It seems like we were planning this for a year or so and you were always there to help one of us. Thanks again - you are the best!

Hi Maria,
I just wanted to THANK YOU for coordinating the most amazing trip for us. Mike and I had a wonderful time. It was truly the trip of a lifetime. Booking through you was so incredible because we had to think about NOTHING. All the transportation and tours, the vouchers... all of it, was such a treat because it allowed Mike and I to sit back and enjoy the trip with no stress which lead to NO fighting! ha All the accommodations were wonderful, the transport was easy and accommodating. Aside from missing our transfer to Hoedspruit (which was because a flight delay to Johannesburg) there were no hiccups and even that worked out fine and Carmen was so helpful in that process.
We cannot thank you enough. Seriously, best trip ever.
Thank you!!!

While it was back to work today, I keep reflecting on the amazing European vacation I was able to experience with my spouse and my mom last week. And while we visited so many awesome sites and locales, it wasn't about checking things off the to do list with militant Griswald precision (ok, maybe a little). Instead it was realizing the blessing of taking the time to spend together and to share experiences that we will cherish forever.Jim and I have been fortunate to have visited many of these amazing places before but seeing the awe on my mom's face as she entered St. Peter's Basilica or gazed upon the statue of David before her just gave me so much joy and happiness. And while a trip abroad would have been way beyond my Dad's comfort, I felt his grace and spirit with us throughout the journey.
A huge thank you to travel agent extraordinaire Maria Mastandrea Tilton! I met Maria while we were both vacationing at a resort in Mexico six years ago (though she spent much of the time investigating other properties) and had an immediate connection and confidence in her vast knowledge and abilities. Since then, Maria has coordinated several cruises for us and she constantly exceeds expectations! This recent trip was no exception in her recommendations for the perfect itinerary/ship/cabin, coordination of mom's scooter and saving us over $4,000 in airfare and providing many added perks. Maria you are the ROCKSTAR amongst rock stars and I can't thank you nor recommend you high enough!

My wife and I have wanted to cruise Tahiti for a while. We contacted Maria and left everything in her capable hands. Before our trip she was always available to answer any of our questions or calm our concerns.Our 12-day trip went off without a hitch. The air reservations were perfect, our cabin (which was upgraded to a penthouse suite) was beautiful, and every port was a daydream location. We followed Maria's recommendations and were never disappointed.
Thank you Maria for all of your hard work that you do for your customers. I know my wife and I certainly appreciate it.

"I'll admit - I was a bit skeptical about not booking the trip myself, but Maria did such an amazing job selecting the perfect resort (from experience) right away. Everything was taken care of - from Airfare, Resort (plus some bonus credits!), and even transfers to and from the Airport to the Resort - needless to say, we felt like VIP's. Since everything was done for us, we had nothing to do but enjoy the amazing trip. Thank you again Maria!"Ron

Hi Maria,Oh my GOSH....that's all I can say about that trip. It was absolutely AMAZING! (& Mother Nature cooperated and we had beautiful sunny days, 9 out of the 10 days!)
The location for both hotels in Rome and Florence were perfect & the accommodations were outstanding! We were upgraded in all the hotels which was awesome (thanks to you!)
And Positano was just as close to paradise as I'll ever get...and our balcony was beautiful! We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sitting out there at night as peaceful as ever. The tour with Raffeale was awesome and he took us to the same restaurant he took you and your friend to with awesome food and a beautiful view. And we had Antoinette for our tour guide for Pompeii who was so funny and knowledgeable. Just like you had said, well worth the money for that whole day experience to really see the Amalfi Coast.
Colin and I really cannot thank you enough for planning an absolutely AMAZING trip, one that we will surely remember for the rest of our lives! And everything went seamlessly as far as drivers, hotels, tours, etc, so you ROCK! We will definitely be reaching out to you again :)
Any suggestions for good, warm places to go in February? haha
Again, thank you so so much for planning the trip that we will always remember!!

Maria,I want to personally THANK YOU for everything you did to make our destination wedding absolutely perfect! All our quests were ranting about how exceptional and efficient your services were! Everything went according to planned and not one person had a complaint about our destination or traveling, which was made easier all because of YOU! Planning a destination wedding is stressful but you went above and beyond in every aspect to make sure we had an amazing wedding and "mini moon" with as little stress as possible. I felt confident and trusted all your decisions to make our traveling experience and wedding absolutely flawless...and that it surely was! All went as scheduled and was everything I hoped and dreamed of. Your sincerity, efficiency, expertise, and kind personality, made it all an amazing experience. My guests, and Rob and I, will definitely be contacting you again to assist with future trips. I can't thank you enough. It is more than appreciated and I am so grateful to have met you. Thank you!!!

Hi Maria:We are back and cannot thank you enough for our beautiful vacation. We were treated royally thanks to your making us upper class. Also thank you for your chocolate strawberries.
Thanks to you it took us about 7 minutes to board the ship and begin vacationing, even though there was a long line waiting to board. Our accommodations were outstanding. Room large, plenty of storage space, balcony large enough for 2 chairs and table. Food was great, casino was kind, ship beautiful, staff on ship was amazing. It was really great (even the extra pounds) and we thank you for all your hard work.
Thanks again.

My wife and I wanted to do something very special with our family so we contacted Maria to help us plan a family cruise. We have 6 adult children (with 6 adult significant others) and 9 grand children. My brother and his wife also joined us for a grand total of 25 people.We started the planning with pricing for inside cabins, then moved to outside cabins, finally settling on balconies for all of us. But not just anywhere. We wanted adjoining rooms. Maria kept up with all of our changes just fine.
We decided, on Maria's recommendation, to sail on Royal Caribbean's "Freedom of the Seas." What a beautiful ship and terrific choice!!
When we arrived we found everything as promised. We were able to open up the dividers between our balconies allowing us to walk from cabin to cabin giving us tons of room and a great location to spend with our family. And to our surprise chocolate covered strawberries were delivered to our cabin. A thoughtful gift from Maria.
Maria also made sure that we were all together for dinner. Three tables were arranged for us. We could eat together every night, enjoy each others company, and talk about our daily events. My wife and I live in Florida; my brother and his wife in Phoenix; one couple in Vegas; one couple in Williamsburg; and the rest in western New York so we are pretty spread out. This gave us the perfect opportunity to catch up; and for some to meet our newest family members. Everyone agreed that dinner each night with the family was one of the best times on the cruise!
This, by far, was the best cruise ever. Being able to spend it with our family was priceless! And we never would have been able to do this without all of Maria's hard work and planning!
Thank you Maria!!!!!!!!!!

It was amazing! We really had such a great time! Having the car allowed us to do so much. While in Scotland it rained 1 time, but we were eating lunch so it didn't matter. In Ireland they were actually in the middle of a heat wave! It was in the 80s for most of our time there. Haha it wouldn't have been so bad? but we packed for weather in the 50s-60s lol everyone there was like we haven't had weather like this in 10 years!! LolMaria, thank you so much for everything!!! Our trip was a once in a lifetime opportunity and everything we could have imagined! We appreciate all off your hard work and are looking forward to more trips!

Booking our vacation to Mexico with Maria was the best thing my husband and I could have done! We told her our budget, what we wanted, and when. Within 24 hours we had several options to choose from. She even scored us an upgraded room! She gave us clear instructions from the minute we got off our plane to arrival at our hotel. Every detail was taken care of, the only thing we had to do was enjoy our vacation. I would recommend Maria to anyone and will be using her services for all our travel needs!Lauren & James Tuosto

Just booked a Carribbean Cruise cruise with Maria Tilton, Cruise Planners. This is about our 11th cruise and she readilly knew our concerns and adjusted her schedule to speak to me one on one each and every time we communicated. She displayed professionalism, friendliness and a genuine concern for our trip. Beside that, the price quoted was all that could be expected working with Celebrity in a popular cruise market - that was excellent and she made it work. Thanks MariaNewcomers to cruising, deal with Maria, you'll love her friendliness and expertise

Thank you Maria ....For a wonderful time on the celebrity Summit! We renewed our vows in front of the captain and was treated like Royalty throughout the ship. The ship itself was beautiful and yet so warm to be living within the week we were away. Bermuda will go down as one of the most beautiful islands that we have ever experienced. Thank you for answering all our questions regarding our trip and giving us handfuls of helpful hints regarding what to pack and what to do when we got to our destination. You were very helpful and we look towards booking our next trip with you. Thank you once again! Daniel &Tracey Damiano .

Maria, I have been so busy since we got back from our WONDERFUL Oasis of the Sea trip, I haven't had a chance to not only thank you for all you did to make it so special, but the location was perfect also. You put us all on the perfect floor of the ship, close to elevators etc. Thank you so much for the chocolate covered strawberries as well. That was sweet of you!! Everything about that shop was unbelievable!!! The only thing I wanted to do and tried several times to do was the Zipline!! It was very sunny and hot up there and lines were just too long--that will have to go back on my "bucket list". I will talk about this trip forever, it was truly something I will never forget. My son is a special guy, and I love him for giving us this memory. Love ya, Lois (Bob Reese's Mom) XXX
