I take care of all the trip planning for you!

I take care of all the research and planning of my clients' trips for them, from inspiration to a fully-planned vacation! My past clients have included couples, families, “girlfriend” groups, grandparent/grandchild trips, church groups, school groups, multi-generational family trips, and folks looking for solo time away. They have traveled to places across the US and around the world. As an independent agent I work for you, not the travel industry. Through meticulous research and obsessive planning, I ensure that you have a wonderful, memorable trip without having to do the work of arranging it all! Some of my favorite places are Tanzania, Australia, Costa Rica, Spain, and Yellowstone National Park. My husband and I have two children: one who loves cities, and one who loves nature. Needless to say, I am accustomed to balancing the desires of multiple people into a single trip! We have two rescue dogs who will happily travel wherever the family can take them!

    Best Vacation Ever
    Reviewed By BJ - Atlanta, GA | Traveled to Yosemite National Park ~ California ~ USA
    This was my first time using Dynamic Escapes, our trip was to Yosemite National Park and San Francisco, CA. Lauren was excellent, after discussing where I wanted to vacation and my options. I selected the option that we desired and she arranged the trip, we were pleased at how coordinated our itinerary was, no problems along the way. The hotel/lodge were first rate. This was the best trip ever. No stress trying to arrange our vacation as I have done in previous years. This was definitely the way to go. Thanks! Lauren.

    Discovering the Rain Forest
    Reviewed By Julie W - Wadsworth, Illinois | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
    This was our second trip planned with Lauren. Like the first one, this trip was absolutely amazing. Lauren is very thorough and knowledgeable , finding answers to each and every questions, even the ones that are minor and relatively unimportant. She is an excellent communicator with the ability to listen and "hear" what you are saying. Working with her is a pleasure - with great rewards.

    Continuing the Adventures !!
    Reviewed By TJW - Illinois | Traveled to Chile ~ South America
    We had the good fortune to meet Lauren on a trip to Peru last year. As we so enjoyed that vacation, we began talking about future similar "adventures". Lauren was a wealth of information, taking into account our interests, hopes and dreams. We just returned from a trip to Chile that Lauren arranged with us. The trip was amazing and working with Lauren insured that all aspects were well thought out and met our needs. We have already planned another trip with Lauren - to Costa Rica.
    Lauren Rock responded
    "It was a pleasure meeting you in Peru! I'm delighted that you enjoyed Chile and have no doubt that you will find Costa Rica a joy as well. Thank you for entrusting your trip plans to me."
    I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    Great Safari In Tanzania!
    A couple of folks have asked about how we arranged our safari trip so I thought I'd share that info broadly. We worked with another Galloway alum, Lauren, who runs Dynamic Escapes, LLC. I knew she had been to Africa, and when we came up with this crazy idea I reached out to her immediately. When I told her when we were traveling she immediately knew that Tanzania was the right place for us and ran with putting together the whole experience. Lauren and her partners at Topguides put together an itinerary that built up really well in that we started with what now feels like a "starter safari" which felt amazing and then the experiences built and built from there. Many thanks Lauren Rock!

    Peru trip!
    We returned from Peru a few days ago and I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help! I believe I can speak for everyone when I say that we had an amazing time. Wilfredo and his family were absolutely marvelous and the sites were all breathtaking. It was extremely convenient to have all hostels and transportation pre-arranged and made for an easy trip. Of course we had to get creative with our return flights due to hurricane Irma but all in all, surely would say it was a once in a life-time trip. Thank you so much,

    A Fantastic Experience - no more stress
    "This is the very first time I have used a travel agent for a vacation trip and I was a little concerned how this trip would turn out; arranging family vacations year after year have been so stressful, but this year using Dynamic Escapes has been great from beginning to end this was a fantastic experience. I plan to use their services again."
