Everything was wonderful and well organized. Extra effort was made to get our kids home safely when freezing weather occurred on the trip back. Thank you!!

My daughter had a fantastic trip to Orlando! This was her very first flight and everything went very well. My family really appreciated the extra effort of getting busses to pick the kids up at the airport and bring them back to the school on the return trip since a winter storm was passing through at pick-up time.
By Amy D for Westwood HS Band - Orlando - January 15-20, 2025 on Jan 29, 2025
Everything was great! Your team went above and beyond when they chartered a bus for our kids to get back to school from the airport due to the freezing weather. Your commitment to safety of our kids and ourselves is greatly appreciated.
By Adrienne D for Westwood Band Families - Orlando - January 15-20, 2025 on Jan 23, 2025
Everything from flights, buses, accommodations, to theme park tickets runs smoothly. Staff is friendly and helpful. For our safety coming back to Austin on a snowy day, Note-Able helped arrange bus transportation to avoid having too many cars on the road. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great travel experience. Thank you. The only thing that can use a tiny bit of improvement is their staff's photography skills. :) But we can live with that.

Thank you, Note-Able Travel Experiences, for an exceptional trip! Our band had an amazing time in Orlando. Everything was everything well-planned and organized. I especially appreciate the assistance we were given when inclement weather threatened our return. Note-Able Travel was at the ready to provide contingency plans and ensured our travelers got home safely. Thank you for going above and beyond!
