"Grace's attention to detail on our group tour of China in 2006 ensured a wonderful travel experience. We more than got our money's worth! The accommodations were first-rate -- couldn't have asked for better! The recent trip to Italy with her group was equally marvelous!"
-- Richard & Trish Solomon, L.A., CA
"Traveling to Australia-New Zealand and Italy was great! As a father and daughter who live far apart, it gave us an opportunity to spend time together exploring new sights, enjoying each other's company and much to our delight building lasting friendships with the wonderful people who join Grace's tours. These were some of the best times we've ever had."
-- James Mann, Cambria, and Joyce Mann, Santa Monica, CA
"We have traveled with WISE & Healthy Aging to Australia/New Zealand (and China with Grace before that), and we could not have been more pleased with all aspects of our experiences. The planning, organization, and expertise that Grace and her team demonstrated was impressive. We also found that the high intelligence level of the participants in both trips was a contributing factor in our enjoyment of the sights, culture, and information provided."
-- Jim and Diane Christianson, Palm Desert, CA The Land Down Under is BIG! The WISE & Healthy Aging tour of Australia and New Zealand was a wonderful introduction to the many faces and places of these fascinating countries."
-- Jeannette Hartman, Van Nuys, CA
