Student Testimonials

“This course is so amazing! It has... provided valuable tools (structure, travel goal setting, etc) to keep the stress down to a manageable level. And that's just been in the first module!”

Ellen

“Through the course, I have gained confidence in planning. I used to feel like I never knew if a certain flight was a good deal. Now I know and feel really good about planning for trips and being able to create a budget. Budgeting has always been an area of travel that I feel unsure about. I want to make sure we stay in a budget but never felt like I could plan effectively with a realistic budget. Thank you Parks Family Travel!”

Christie

“I loved all the tips on application! Tips on Calendaring, tips for comparing costs, tips for making plans for future trips and writing them down. All that is super helpful for me!”
