Brad and Eric put together a Hawaiian vacation for us. We could not be happier. They got us the best prices with an amazing resort. The view from our room was fantastic. We could not believe we finally made our bucket list trip at such an amazing price. The tours that were set up for us were great also. From transportation to tips and hints, this trip went off without a hitch. Highly recommend Anytime Anywhere Journeys! We will be booking again with them for sure.

My journeys outside of America would be filled with worry and anxiety if I were responsible for the plans, preparations, and execution of my trips. With that being said, thanks to Anywhere, Anytime Journeys for planning stress and worry free trips anywhere in the world! my recent trip to Egypt with seven of my friends was amazing. It could not have happened without the professionalism and superb customer service that Brad and Eric provided as our escorts on a 15 day journey throughout Cairo and sailing for 8 days on the beautiful Nile. He treated my group as if we were his close friends and family members from the beginning to the very end of the trip. Without a doubt, if you are planning a weekend trip to Las Vegas or a trip around the world.....your place to begin is with Brad and Eric with Anywhere Anytime Journeys. You, your family, your friends, your business partners, our church members, and communities will not be disappointed with the caring and expertise provided by this amazing travel agency. Guess What? I'm only writing the review because it is true. All the Best. Tara

I've just completed the trip of a lifetime to Egypt!

Secrets of Egypt and the Nile Cruise Tour was hosted and facilitated by Brad and Eric of Anywhere Anytime Journeys. From takeoff to touchdown, the 11 day excursion was impeccably managed and fine tuned to maximize our enjoyment. None of our travel mechanics were left to chance. From Cairo airport arrival and luggage handling, airport transfers, hotel arrangements and accommodations, river cruising, and food options, were 5 STAR. The partnership between Anywhere Anytime Journeys, AmaWaterways Luxurious River Cruise Line, and AmaDahlia Riverboat was seamless with each element interlocking as one.

The awesomeness of the Egyptian antiquities could have only been exceeded by the attention to detail exhibited by Anywhere Anytime Journeys. Brad and Eric made the trip with us which demonstrated to me their true commitment to the travel product they offered us. They gave us an "11 day lifestyle experience" allowing us to become immersed into the Egyptian culture.

They never boarded a bus or left a venue until every group member was accounted for and onboarded. They knew our faces, names and individual oddities ten minutes after first encounters. They out spent us, Egyptian pound and US dollars, at every market, getting right down into the bartering rituals with us. This kind of personal attention and participation made communications and interactions comfortable and easy as all of our needs and reasonable request were met and exceeded. They cared about us both professionally and personally.

The hotel rooms were large and gorgeous. The tours and site visits well organized and time bending. The food was excellent and options built around the local offerings with an always appealing presentation. Special dining request were performed with a simple ask. Tour guides, support personnel, bus drivers, and even our personal security team members, were professional yet personable, accomplishing their respective duties yet making us feel pampered and safe at the same time.

AAJ has no real control over the personalities and quirks of their respective clients and group dynamics can sometimes be a crap shoot. For some reason, the 17 travelers in the Anytime Anywhere Journeys Group meshed as a real group. We became the easily recognizable "Green Family" named after the large green sign held high by our outstanding group Egyptologist, Eman.

This was a trip of a lifetime and Brad and Eric of Anywhere Anytime Journeys helped to make it such. Their Domestic and International Travel Client List will certainly find my name on the roll of the many for all future travel. This duo hit a home run with me and my wife Brenda in providing us with an outstanding travel experience, especially when we had early reservations and anxieties about traveling to this part of the world with the current state of affairs. We felt safe every step of our journey.

The trip of a lifetime. I will always suggest that you let a travel agency take care of all of the intricate details for your once in a lifetime trip. They take care of everything (hotel, date of tours, transportation,etc). I have only worked with 1 travel agency and that is “Anywhere Anytime Journey”. With Brad and Eric taking care of everything the only thing you have to do is to enjoy your trip. Job well done.

I had never booked a trip with a travel agent before, but when we decided to take a pretty spontaneous trip to Florida we figured we'd see if it made a difference. Normally we would be ironing out details for a trip up until departure and have all of the stress of confirming things at the last minute etc. We had none of that on this trip. We spent a couple hours planning in the office, and walked out with everything but our food plans at Disney locked in. And, because we had met with them, we knew we needed to make food plans among all of the other things we didn't know to expect.

They gave us great directions as well as setting up our rental car and everything else we needed. We never had to wonder where we were headed next because everything was planned out and easily accessible. I completely recommend Anywhere Anytime Journeys for any travel planning, and the next time I escape Illinois I'll be calling them up myself.

We worked with Brad and Eric at Anywhere Anytime Journeys to help us find a tour of Italy that would meet our interests and budget. They presented us with two options, and we chose the one that worked best for us. Brad and Eric are the most incredible travel agents I have ever worked with! They are well traveled, so they are able to give lots of tips. They really took their time with us in discussing the trip details and answering all of our questions. They even contacted our tour group for us to see if we would have time to fit something in that wasn’t on the itinerary. They had us meet with them a few weeks before our trip to go over everything. They gave us a booklet of information that they printed out specific to our trip. It has the complete itinerary, flight info, travel vouchers, important contact info, info sheet to give to your family and friends in case of an emergency, travel insurance info, checklists for packing, etc. They left no stone unturned. We had an amazing trip, and upon our return, Brad called me personally to hear about our trip. We will always use Anywhere Anytime Journeys for our future travels. We highly recommend them - they are the best of the best!!!

I've used other travel agents in the past but not ONE of them ever gave us the level of services provided by Brad and Eric From our initial contact, Brad proved to be an attentive listener and paid close attention to our travel wants and needs. He followed through on every step and met each commitment early. He handled every travel detail. One of the features I most appreciated was the detailed itinerary portfolio, print as well as on an App. In one place, I had all the information I could ever think of needing. Brad was always quick to respond, gave us options and discussed the pros and cons of each so we felt fully informed. They put together a travel package within our budget, with no pressure to add upgrades or excursions. Brad and Eric also take a personal interest in you and strive to make a genuine interpersonal connection. This is not just a business for them, but a true passion and calling to help you have the best travel experience possible.

We had the honor of traveling with Brad and Eric on a trip to Rome and then onto a cruise on the APEX for Celebrity Cruises. This was hands down the most amazing trip we have had yet! The personalized, detailed service from both of them was A+! All my questions were answered immediately as they have thought of everything from where to park to where to eat to hotels, tours etc.

I highly recommend using them on any trips. I have them working on our next trip and will be customers for life. Thank you Brad and Eric for the trip of a lifetime and a much-needed relaxing time away from our business without any cares in the world as you provided excellent service!

Had the trip of a lifetime with Brad and Eric and several other companions on the APEX! I hated to come back to work after being pampered by the cruise employees. The sites we got to see were absolutely amazing. We went to Cyprus, Israel, Greece, Turkey. Seeing the ruins was my favorite. Knowing that we walked in places Jesus walked gave me the chills. I highly recommend this cruise to anyone. You will not be disappointed. We used the spa on the ship and Aneta had amazing hands that massaged my cares away. Of course since we got to travel with Brad and Eric the owners of Anywhere Anytime Journeys it made our trip more exciting. They are extremely attentive and detailed guys. Love them both!

Brad and Eric were great to work with. We won our cruise through a local radio station. What we were told was different from what it was supposed to be so it was a little rocky starting. Once we scheduled an appointment and walked in their office, everything changed. Eric was very informative, friendly and very comforting. We sat down with Brad and told him what our likes vs dislikes and what we really wanted was. He worked on meeting our requests for a couple of weeks. Then we got a call with the perfect cruise vacation! All of our wants were met and more. In fact, on our cruise, we booked another one for them to work on for us! Great place to work with! Recommend to anyone, go to Rantoul and meet with them to get the knowledge and atmosphere you deserve!! Thanks Brad and Eric!!

Don't think that once you have it booked, he's done...one of our return flights was cancelled by the airline, so I sent Brad a quick email and he had us on another flight within an hour.

I would highly recommend Anywhere Anytime Journeys for any getaway you are planning or thinking about planning, no matter how big or small. My family has used them for short road trips and for planning cruises. They totally take the stress and work out of planning your trip. They are so knowledgeable. They always are able to find us the nicest hotels to stay at, with the most reasonable rate. They are able to suggest activities, sites to see on our trip that we never would have thought of. When we had a family emergency and needed to fly out of state quickly, I just called them and they planed our flight and lodging for us. For our return trip home the weather was bad, Brad was also traveling himself. He took the time out of his own personal time to call us and help us reschedule our flight so we could get home safely.

I used Anywhere Anytime Journeys for the first time in November 2021. I have worked with other travel agencies but Eric and Brad are the BEST agents ever! They were extremely prompt with quoting my airfare, asked about my aisle preferences, airline preferences, airline rewards #'s, etc. But the best part is their App! They provided clear, concise instructions for how to download the app, how to use it, checked in with me to make sure I didn't have additional questions regarding how to use it - basically they held my hand through the whole process. They forwarded a wonderful trip itinerary for me use, provided their contact information if I had questions or problems during my travel. One of the best experiences I have ever had!

Well, we are back and settling in to real life, which by the way, we both think is overrated! The alarm was a bit more than abrasive this morning :)!

I just wanted to thank you for taking care of everything for us. It was a wonderful trip! We relaxed, spent time together, drank, laid in the sun, walked the beach, had GREAT food, gambled a bit (Kurt, not me) and yes he won, slept in, no alarms. It was truly what we wanted!

We did do one excursion; snorkeling and a party boat type morning. We met great people. We enjoyed it a lot. We are glad we only chose one for the week; given that we didn't want a lot of schedules.

The resort was outstanding-gorgeous; the restaurants were wonderful, the service and atmosphere was fantastic. We did get to talk to several people who had been other places and Bavaro is their favorite. Great pick!

Travel went smoothly with everything. It was truly a wonderful trip; really all that we wanted it and hoped it would be for us to be away from the world.

Thank you - thank you so much for all you did; especially with changing of flights. Oh, and we did get the refund on that one day - all came through on my credit card already! It was weird (and wonderful) to just show up at the airport with our bags and not have to think about all the details.

You blessed us so much. We will be sharing this with others and recommending you for people who are traveling; made the trip so much easier in so many ways!

Keep doing what you're doing!!! Have a great week.

WOW! Is all I can say about Brad and Eric from Anywhere Anytime Journeys! My wife and I recently traveled abroad and unfortunately fell ill during our trip.

Within less than an hour, they had us booked on a direct flight home the following day so we could get home and start feeling better! I couldn’t be more pleased with these guys and highly recommend them if you plan to travel.

Daren and I ventured into the Canadian Rockies to visit Banff National Park. A bucket list vacation for sure! Banff had everything we’d want in a vacation; breathtaking views, amazing spas, golf and plenty of outdoor activities. Bria got to spend some quality time with both sets of grandparents and didn’t miss us for one minute!

Thanks to Brad Martin at Anytime Anywhere Journeys for planning and booking our (now second!) trip for us! The expertise, free room upgrades, food and spa credits couldn’t be beat!

I wanted to take a moment and recognize Anywhere Anytime Journeys in Rantoul, Illinois (https://www.anywhereanytimejourneys.com/). I started using them two years ago and use them for all of my IFSI-related business travel. A few weeks ago I looked at a particular flight online and the best price I could get on my own, even with status on AA, was over $550. Anywhere Anytime Journeys was able to find a better routing option for just over $400. For the cost of a $25 ticketing fee, they saved me $125 on this trip. Check out their website above or visit them on Facebook to learn more!

The benefits far outweigh the minimal cost - destination information in a useful app and the ability to access fares and routes I can't see personally make it worth it!

[The Pocket Travel Conultant] app is so easy to use. They downloaded it and showed me how to use it, helped me play with it. It made check-in so easy. We are not electronic savvy, but this is so easy. We definitely recommend using this app.

I will always treasure memories of my 60th birthday journey to Europe because of the superb service provided by Brad Martin with Anywhere Anytime Journeys. For the twenty-one amazing days that I spent in Europe all I had to do was show up because Brad took care of every detail for every day, every hour and every minute. Because of Brad’s expertise and professionalism, every tour guide and chauffer were in first-class formation from London to Paris, cruising thru Germany on a riverboat, to Prague, and ending with a grand tour of Bologna and Rome. From the minute that I boarded the plane in Oklahoma City to Europe and returned home all my travel was managed well and in order. Thank you, Brad Martin. Without a doubt Anywhere Anytime Journeys is the travel agency that will exceed all of your expectations when in need of travel agent who understands the business. Brad, I owe you a great debt of gratitude for making my 60th Birthday trip to Europe a trip of a lifetime. Looking forward to working with you in the future! All the best.

I haven't taken time to tell you, but the trip to New York in December for my mother-in-laws 75th birthday FAR exceeded my expectations. The stay in Times Square was perfect, Big Bus was an amazing company with wonderful staff and were very compassionate when we needed to extend our 48 hour on the bus to accommodate [one of our party] who ended up with the flu on what was supposed to be day-2 of the tour. I was amazed and impressed with NYC as a whole... it was a wonderful time! Thank you so much for your help with all of that!

It [Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre] was a lot of fun! It was a married couple who did the acting and there was crowd participation, which was fun too. Wine tasting and bottles/glasses of wine, beer, water, etc can be purchased. I'm not a wine lover, but did enjoy the three free samples and ended up buying a bottle. Also bought some local cheese. Dinner was good. Tossed salad, fruit salad, mashed potatoes, green beans, chicken pasta and ham.

The bus ride was nice. Nice charter bus and Brad Martin was a great host serving us plenty of snacks.

All in all I would rate it a 10/10. Of course a lot of that had to do with the company I was in. I laughed so hard my sides hurt!

My husband and I were planning to go on a dream vacation and started doing all our own research. I had always taken care of our extensive business travels so thought this would be a "piece of cake"! Well...it started getting more complicated than I could have imagined so a friend recommended I call Brad of Anytime Anywhere Journeys. Thank goodness I followed that advice! Brad put together the most amazing Southern Caribbean Cruise package including perfect flight connections, hotel reservations, excursions, etc! His attention to detail and personalization of these details was first class! Right down to listing what to bring, wear, etc. One thing Brad highly recommended was purchasing travel insurance and I thought why...nothing is going to stand in our way!! Wow...am I glad I listened to him. Just before our departure my husband was hospitalized and we had to cancel everything. We were reimbursed everything thanks to Brad and he "held our hands" through the entire process! Folks...don't do it by yourself...call Brad, Anywhere Anytime Journeys...he is truly the best "Travel Designer" and you won't be sorry!

Your documents are more than a 'step above the rest'! Not only did it include a pre-departure check list, a complete itinerary and luggage tags, it was bound in a booklet for us to keep as a souvenir of our trip too.

Thank you also for the follow-up after our return. You have truly earned our respect and loyalty, we know exactly who to call when we want to plan our next trip.

We made it back, and I have to say Thank YOU!! What a wonderful trip. The flights worked out perfect, no issues at all. The Four Seasons went above and beyond expectations. The Villa they moved us into was amazing… we had more space than we could’ve ever used. 5 people could’ve easily lived in that villa for the week. We had a full kitchen, which they let us stock with bulk food at discounted prices (for example, beers were 24 for $40… or I could go to the beach and pay $6 for one!). We were able to have breakfast every day in our villa, and have snacks during the day, saving us a ton of money. We had over 1,000 sq ft of screened-in porch, and an outdoor deck with our own pool. We were right on the golf course, looking down the 18th fairway to the ocean. Just a beautiful spot. We even had our own golf cart to cruise around the resort, it only took us about 5 min to get to the beach. The service was outstanding as well, exactly what you’d expect from the Four Seasons. They don’t ever tell you they can’t do something, they figure out how to get it done. My wife was craving chocolate ice cream after dinner one night… she asked some random lady standing in the lobby if she knew where she could get some. Instead of ignoring it, the lady told her to sit down and she would handle it… 5 min later, my wife had a bowl of chocolate ice cream. Just amazing service all week!

Anyways, thanks again for planning our vacation. We had a wonderful time and I thank you. Nevis is a beautiful island and I’d highly recommend it to any of your clients.

Brad is a true professional and an absolute joy to work with. I had the pleasure of traveling with him on an educational visit to South Africa last year, where he completely immersed himself into the country. Now, more than a year later, he continues to stay on top of new trends, properties and experiences in South Africa to share with his clients. His passion for world travel and culture remains an inspiration.

I have done business with Anywhere Anytime Journeys for many years for a variety of trips and events (sea cruises and river cruises, tennis opens Australia and Wimbledon). It is not so much the great seats at the tennis matches and Las Vegas shows, it is the excellent travel arrangements that go along with these adventures. Convenient schedules and cheap fares on airlines, outstanding hotels, international train connections, and tour itineraries are just a few of the reasons that our travels are relaxing and as worry free as possible. Brad Martin’s attention to detail and personal touch for all the accommodations add to the enjoyment of the excursions.
