AmFund (American Fundraising Foundation) - Maitland, Florida

This was our 3rd trip through AmFund – Costa Rica, Aruba and now Spain. We just returned from the Spain getaway, and it was the best yet. AmFund selected the best adventures and hotel accommodations. Included with the trip, we went on a catamaran ride (with snorkeling) in the Mediterranean Sea, enjoyed a Flamenco show – in which we had front row seats, and toured the city of Barcelona with the best tour guides around. AmFund was flexible with scheduling, our requested upgrades and even helped guide us with booking our own activities. Highly recommend AmFund and Joanne Bayless.

Our recent AmFund trip to France was a five star experience all around. We stayed in fabulous hotels, ate amazing food and participated in prearranged tours that came off flawlessly.

This was our second AmFund purchased tour. Each has been fabulous. After having a rough patch with staffing, AmFund has worked out the kinks and its now easy to contact your coordinator and plan the trip details. Our coordinator, Lisa, couldn't have been more helpful! She assisted with details, changes and was flexible with our evolving plans. The hotels selected by AmFund were perfect - very charming and unique venues, reflective of the local area. We would have likely overlooked them if we were booking for ourselves. The guided tours arranged by AmFund were terrific. The tour guides showed up on time, in the right place and we were whisked off to a guided tour that we could not have done on our own. All in all, a very wonderful experience. We will bid on these tours at every non-profit fund raising event we attend - they are good deal for both the organization and the travelers!

Thank you Maiken Pickton for setting up an awesome trip to Greek Islands. The hotels were beautiful, and the flights were on schedule with no issues. This trip reinforces how nice it is to travel as a couple versus the big tour groups. I never would be able to do a cruise with all those people and the long lines we saw in the Greek Islands.

The recommended excursions/activities allowed us to customize the trip to our interests. All the excursions were on time, and they went out of their way to ensure everyone was enjoying themselves. I highly recommend the sunset cruises.

Thanks again for setting up this wonderful trip that will be remembered for the rest of our lives!!

What a great trip to France. AmFund really took care of everything and were with us every step of the way; even fixing a few hiccups along the way. They were so accommodating to move plans around for us so we could see Paris, where I proposed to my wife 10 years ago. The castles were so charming and the smaller cities, delightful. But if you plan to shop, stay away from Paris on a Sunday. Go see some museums or the Eiffel Tower. Also, avoid Air France if you can. Sorry, not the best airline. The hotels that were chosen for us were perfect. English was never a problem. And the food, what can I say, the only way to stay on your diet is to walk. Absolutely perfect vacation.

We traveled to Capri, Italy and can’t say enough about what a wonderful trip this was. At La Floridiana, we were treated like family and the island views were breathtaking. We enjoyed a day trip to the Amalfi Coast. Thank you for making this such a memorable trip.

We purchased a trip to Iceland at a non-profit fundraising event, and were skeptical at first, because of the unknown of using a travel company we'd never heard of. We just returned from our trip to Iceland and AmFund did a fantastic job! Great communication during the process, detailed and professional information with our itinerary before the trip, and we loved our trip: the hotel was great (great location, very nice upscale hotel, friendly staff), and the outings were really fun (food tour, golden circle tour, Sky Lagoon), and the schedule was good because we had days where we could arrange our own activities. Everything went extremely smoothly, and we were very pleased with the whole process with AmFund.

Recently returned from the Greek Odyssey trip - it was wonderful! This was our 3rd trip with AmFund. Yet another outstanding experience with convenient, easy travel.

Our specialist, Maiken P. was awesome to work with. She made everything easy from the start. We added on 2 additional nights in Athens and it worked out great. She so provided recommendations for add-on excursions that we wanted to take.

All aspects of the trip were top-notch. The timing of the flights was perfect as well as the other arranged transportation.

The hotels were gorgeous, well-situated and the service could not have been better. In fact, we received a nice surprise at the Myconian Korali with an upgrade to include a private pool attached to the room! What a pleasure to be placed in a Relais and Chateaus property - and we had access to the sister hotels on the property. The Lilium Hotel in Santorini was as sweet as could be with amazing views. The Herodian was comfortable and conveniently situated for exploring Athens. All the hotels had excellent breakfast, were helpful resources for reservations, recommendations and provided assistance with transportation and drivers as needed.

Thank you again AmFund for another memorable travel experience.

I purchased a trip for me and my best friend at a charity auction benefiting a local animal shelter. I was a bit skeptical about the quality of the trip, but figured it was for a good cause and therefore went ahead and booked it. My friend and I were both blown away by the trip and our experience with AmFund. Maiken did an absolutely amazing job booking the trip - from finding amazing hotels to scheduling everything, suggesting amazing places to visit and fun excursions and beyond. The process was super simple and the trip was definitely once-in-a-lifetime. I will definitely purchase a trip through AmFund in the future.
