I can't recommend Mackenzie Kantwill and Trailblazing Travel enough. Mackenzie planned a surprise trip to Ireland for me to surprise my girlfriend with a marriage proposal she never saw coming. While planning the trip, no detail was overlooked, no matter how small. For example, Mackenzie made sure to have a Garmin GPS reserved with my car so I could focus on navigating those ridiculously narrow Irish roads instead of on where I was going. She's also great under pressure. I had a travel emergency that caused me to miss my flight, and Mackenzie was there to walk me through it and help me re-book. From hotel booking to finding the perfect spot to pop the Q, everything was handled perfectly. Thank you to Trailblazing Travel for bringing my marriage proposal plan to life! |
This is the type of business you don't even know you need, until you use it! It's affordable yet feels so personalized, hands off yet you still feel like you're part of the travel planning. Why didn't I do this sooner?! My husband and I LOVE to travel, but we both are full time professionals with busy social lives. We began to realize that we were going on fewer vacations because how time consuming it was to research cities and neighborhoods, find flights, hotels, activities, car rentals. We stayed up late, torturing ourselves on google flights, and would go to bed frustrated-no closer to having our "fun vacation" planned and def not excited to travel. And that's were Trailblazing Travel comes in! Mackenzie saved us so much time, energy and agonizing over all the details. She listened to the type of vacation we wanted (down to balcony wants, price range, neighborhood vibe) and compiled a long list of amazing hotels, car rentals, flight options and areas to stay (complete with embedded links and photos!) so all we had to do was click the links and dream about our amazing vacation. We were actually excited about our trip after we picked everything! She made an amazing recommendation about flights which both saved us money and gave us extra time on our trip! Mackenzie also has a rare gift of gleaming insight in your personality and relationship through just a few conversations. She truly tailored our trip to our personalities and guided us to insights we didn't even know we needed. Do yourself, your relationship and your wallet a favor and use this travel service!

I have used Trailblazing Travel to book 2 trips now! One to Grenada to scuba dive and one to Las Vegas as a surprise birthday trip! Both trips included air fare, lodging and planned activities. Everything went smooth as silk and met all of my expectations! You don't realize how much time you can spend putting the logistics of a trip together until you have already spent the time... It's nice to have a "go to" that you can trust and that makes sure every detail is in place. Save your time and energy. Let a professional take care of everything for you!!! It's 100% worth it!! |
Mackenzie arranged an amazing getaway in Maine for my fiancé and I to celebrate our recent engagement this past August. We only had about 48 hours to spend and wanted to visit Acadia National Park and the surrounding area, and Mackenzie helped us make the most of our limited time! She booked us a room at the most romantic Inn, and gave us some great recommendations on hikes of all levels, restaurants, and other sites to see! She worked with the Inn to arrange early check in and late check out to maximize our stay, and checked in with us throughout our trip through the app to make sure everything was going well! It was so nice to have everything arranged in advance so that my fiancé and I could just relax and enjoy the trip! I look forward to working with Mackenzie and Trailblazing Travel again for our honeymoon! |
Trailblazing Travel planned a SURPRISE trip to Las Vegas for my birthday weekend! What an amazing trip! The flights were non-stop and no issues at all! Great and reputable airlines! Once in Las Vegas, we stayed at Mandalay Bay. What a beautiful resort/hotel! It is located at the far end of the strip ... far away from the craziness ... but also within walking distance if you need a little nightlife. The entire trip was perfectly planned! With Trailblazing Travel, all I did was pack a bag and get on a plane. Literally! I will 100% trust them to plan my next vacation! Thank you for this wonderful and memorable experience!

We planned our honeymoon through Trailblazing Travel, and Mackenzie absolutely knocked the entire experience out of the park. From day one, she worked with us to make it the adventure of a lifetime. When we started planning, we weren’t sure where we wanted to go, so she took the time to put together a handful of options for us. We settled on two weeks in Thailand and Vietnam, and Mackenzie helped us customize the entire trip piece by piece, based on our travel style and our budget. Unbeknownst to us, she even contacted the local hotels to let them know it was our honeymoon, so we were surprised with a lot of sweet extras throughout the trip! Not only was Mackenzie incredibly hands-on and responsive during the planning process, she also was constantly available during our trip itself, to make sure everything was going as planned and to smooth over any worries we had. She even gave us our itinerary in an app that was updated throughout the trip and worked offline, which came in handy, especially during our more complicated travel days. The entire honeymoon was perfect from start to finish — by far the best trip we’ve ever taken! We would recommend Mackenzie and Trailblazing Travel to anyone looking for a fully customized and worry-free travel experience to remember forever. |
My friend and I used Trailblazing Travel for a trip to Thailand last fall. Neither of us had much experience planning an international trip by ourselves and Mackenzie handled everything so well! She worked with us to create the perfect itinerary that met what we were looking for (both touristy tour days and leisure), had answers to questions we didn't even know to ask and was there to help the whole time we were there, despite the time difference. It took so much stress out of the equation. I would recommend 100%!! |
