Destination Wedding
My wife and I got married in the Dominican Republic. Flawless trip and Dawn was extremely attentive, accommodating, and most importantly always available to communicate with. She is a rockstar! You would be doing yourself a disservice not using her!

Dream Family Vacation
Dawn is knowledgeable professional, helpful, insightful, prompt and courteous. My boys were 9 and 11 in May 2019 when we booked and took our trip to Universal Studios, Orlando. Their mother and I had talked for years about such a trip, and after stops and starts researching our trip ... thought it would never happen. From the moment we contracted Dawn, she made the planning seamless, answered all our questions and steered us in the best directions ... many that we would not have considered. Dawn found us reasonable first class accommodations at a truly amazing hotel, beautiful suite, early park entry w express passes, We are so grateful for Dawn's expertise and thoughtful, knowledgeable trip suggestions. Until the next time we book with Dawn, ... truly the trip of a lifetime for our family.

A Great Trip With Little Stress!
it was a great trip and thank you very much for helping set this up. We love Secrets over all the all-inclusive, adult only is the only way to go. Will probably do a Secrets next time just a different location, Aruba, Mexico or someplace different so we can try different things. Will keep you in the loop and recommend you to anyone who asks! Cheers and again thanks for helping, you are definitely worth it.

A Memorable Familymoon
Dawn did an excellent job throwing together a last minute "Familymoon" for our family. Getting a group with multiple family members is NOT an easy task but she did it. She was also a great help for me who was traveling for the first time with all my kids out of the country. Its overwhelming to ensure you are being safe and doing what you need to. Thanks for all your help and checking in with us throughout our vacation as well.
Brandee H., Fox Lake, IL

Some Of The Best Vacations We Have Ever Taken!
We have booked two vacations through Dawn at Twilight Discount Travel. She is wonderful. She worked very hard on getting our trip to exactly what we wanted to do and see. We booked a trip to Vegas and also to the Dominican Republic. These were some of the best vacations we ever have taken. The hotel/resorts that we stayed at were top notch. Dawn had everything in writing and spelled out for what the hotel/resort offered and how much everything was going to cost. Very easy to work with and always there to help. Thanks Dawn - we will be back!

Been Using Dawn For The Last 7 Or So Years
Twilight Discount Travel and Dawn are AMAZING. We have been using Dawn for the last 7 or so years. Just recently she helped both of my daughters with their honeymoons and did an excellent job! Not only was everything planned perfectly, but she also surprised them with special items. My husband had an issue with his vision one year when we were in Dominican Republic, and I reached out to her while she was there, and was EXTREMELY HELPFUL!!! I cannot pick a better person to plan my vacations!!!

20TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY
Dawn, we can't thank you enough for all your help in making our 20th anniversary so memorable. From the room upgrade, to the food, to the resort, to the staff (especially Omar) to knowing you were available if we needed anything. We can't wait to book our next trip. You are an amazing travel agent and an asset to have on hand to answer all my crazy emails.

FAMILY VACATION TO DREAMS PUERTO AVENTURAS
Dawn booked our family of 6 a beautiful vacation to Dreams Puerto Adventuras. We had issues with our flight to Cancun and Dawn was there right away fixing our transportation from the airport to the resort since our times had changed. When we got to the resort Dawn made sure the concierge gave us a tour of the resort since we were a little confused on where everything was and how it worked! She upgraded us to Preferred status so we could get extra spoiled and she sent cookies and champagne to our room to welcome us which was too kind! She checked in on us to make sure we didn't have any more questions and also made sure we didn't have any issues getting home! We will definitely be booking our next vacation with Dawn and Twilight Discount Travel! Thanks again for everything! ?
Krystal R., Johnsburg, IL
Amazing Trip
Thank you Dawn Olson for booking us an amazing trip. We had a wonderful vacation and met so many awesome people.

Now Sapphire Riviera
Dawn- Thank you for all your help before and after our recent trip to Now Sapphire in Rivera/Cancun Mexico! Our group trip was fantastic, an we're already dreaming and thinking of our next big trip. Also, thank you for answering all of my annoying 'first time out of the country' questions. It certainly helped knowing what to expect in the process. Can't wait to see what upcoming all inclusive specials Twilight Discount Travel will have later this year/early next. Did someone say Cabo...Jamaica?!? ????????
Rayna Y., McHenry, IL
Another PERFECT Trip!
Can't thank you enough for ANOTHER perfect vacation! Had the greatest time with the kids at the Now Sapphire in Mexico/Cancun. The kids loved it. There were activities for all the kids (6-13) all day. The adults loved it too. Everything went off without a hitch! Thanks again!
Bryan S., Antioch, IL
Family Vacation to Iberostar!
Dawn, We had a great time! You made choosing a venue and booking a breeze! The Iberostar resort in Mexico is huge so we could mix it up, so every day seemed like we were someplace new! The Paella that was cooked on the beach was awesome! We're already looking to see where we want to go next!
Steve B., Genoa City, WI
Awesome All-Inclusive Vacation to Punta Cana
I've never used a travel agent before and now I will never not use one again! Twilight provided excellent service and detail, all I had to do was give her an idea of what I was looking for and she took care of the rest.
