Some of the most common concerns clients have about traveling to our destinations include health-related questions regarding vaccination requirements, disease prevention, drinking water, and food safety. While Ker & Downey cannot prescribe medication or inoculations, we can recommend precautionary steps to help make your trip safe and enjoyable. We advise that all travelers seek medical advice, preferrably from a specialist in travel medicine, before travel and that they continue to seek advice during and after travel.

My son, Mark, and I have used Ker & Downey for three international trips: South Pacific, Amsterdam/Budapest, and most recently Italy. Each of our three trips have been wonderful adventures for us. The travel recommendations and execution of the itineraries have exceeded our expectations. From the “hotel” selections, to the travel tips (like purchase the tram and museum passes before arriving in Amsterdam), to the itinerary adjustments we requested as we were travelling in Italy — every facet of our trips was handled professionally and efficiently. In addition, Nicole’s personal knowledge of the areas we visited and her understanding of our interests were most impressive. I know we are not your largest client, but I did want to take a few minutes of your time to express our satisfaction in working with Ker & Downey and Nicole. Mark and I are contemplating future international travel adventures and it is our intent to work with Ker & Downey and Nicole on these trips.
