Meet Tiffany

She participated in the Walt Disney World College Program, helping couples make memories of their own through Disney Fairytale Weddings. Today, she’s found a new way to make memories, by bringing travel dreams to life for groups across the country.

My favorite travel memory
My favorite travel memory was on a family trip to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We went ziplining in the Smoky Mountains, and I was so terrified to step off the first platform – they basically had to push me! The final zipline of the day was over 250 feet off the ground, and the view is something I will always remember. It was totally out of my comfort zone, but it quickly became one of my favorite things I’ve ever done.
My hobbies and pastimes
My hobbies include playing tennis, going to flea markets, and spending time with my family, friends, and dog, Noodle. I’m hoping to make a new hobby out of my recently acquired passport!
My favorite destination
My favorite travel destination is Florida. It holds a special place in my heart because it was the first place I ever went on vacation, and I have always loved Disney and the beach. Walt Disney World is very special to me because I lived and worked there for a year and had some of the most amazing experiences.
The personal touches that BRT provides. Your company gets to know the people they work with. I have never felt like a "number" with BRT.

I appreciated the flexibility Bob Rogers showed us with the billing and various payments we had to make. We thought we were adding more and ended up not but you were great about giving us extra time to work out what we needed to on our end.

BRT is always on top of all details. Even when something has slipped through the cracks, changed, or something unexpected comes up, BRT is flexible enough to make the changes needed to make everything right. We have always been so well taken care of and the personal attention is what makes your company special.

You make the process so easy - step-by-step of what needs to be done, guidance along the way, available (and quick) to respond to questions and making me feel like me and my students are your priority.

The quality of service that you provided us with was second to none. The organization and communication were exceptional and we always felt we were in “the loop” on things both before and during the trip.

BRT hands down has been the absolute best travel company I have worked with in my 18 years in education. My interactions with BRT have always been so much more than just traveling from one destination to another...the focus has always been on people and providing them with experiences of a lifetime.

From the scheduling, to planning, to overseeing, to leading, to customer service, everyone involved was courteous, prompt, and hospitable. Everyone did their jobs well and turned the trip experience into something better than we had anticipated.

Very Organized - even when problems develop. We've gone on enough trips with Bob Rogers to know how BRT operates - always first class, always prepared.
