what our clients Say

“We had an absolutely wonderful time on our river cruise set up by Jeff & Cindy Coggin. It was so helpful to have them make all the transfer arrangements ahead of time - and then, due to a last minute change on the embarkment town, they canceled the existing ones and scheduled new ones. We would not have had a clue how to do that on our own. They took care of every single detail and responded very quickly to any of our concerns before and during the trip. I would high recommend them.”
Steven H’s trip to France
“What an amazing trip we had! Our sincere gratitude for your help in planning our French/Rhône river cruise. We are certain that your personal, hands-on attention and expertise to our needs made our trip special. You were invaluable, and we could not have asked for a better travel advisors. Beautiful cities were visited and the excursions were plentiful for our varied interests. The riverboat crew was courteous and attentive and the food and wine pairings were exquisite. Our private wine sommelier and additional wine tastings expanded our knowledge We also appreciate the personalized wines you brought to our dinners. Thank you again, we had a trip of a lifetime, and we highly recommend you to our family and friends. Until we travel again.”
Helen J’s trip to France
“Just got back from an awesome Avalon "Wine Lovers" river boat cruise of the Rhone River, put together by Coggin Travels. We loved every thing about the boat, the excursions and of course... the wine tastings! This was the perfect way to experience France and all the different wine regions. Jeff and Cindy took care of everything and made sure we were able to focus on "the experience" while they handled all the details.”
Alan Z’s trip to France
“Coggin Travels planned a long trip to France for us and other friends and family. They did a great job! The wine experiences were incredible before and after a great Rhone River wine cruise.”
Tammy B’s trip to France
“Attention to details and personalizing experiences catered to our tastes is a gift from Coggin Travels! We thoroughly enjoyed a river cruise in France without complications- from the airlines, to hotels, excursions, transfers, and cruise line- The trust we had in Jeff and Cindy to take care of these and any surprises that came our way made the trip all that more enjoyable. Thank You Coggin Travels!”
Brad O’s trip to France
“Nothing short of spectacular experience with this travel agency!!!!!”
Michael W’s trip to France
“Cindy has created several travel packages for us. First, an amazing trip to Iceland and most recently a quick Alaskan cruise. Every detail was perfect, the itineraries, the accommodations, the meals, the tours. We have nothing but good things to say about Cindy and Coggin Travels. We highly recommend them and will use them again in the future.”
Halran H’s trip to Alaska
“Thank you, Cindy and Jeff, for helping us book our vacation. Your product knowledge is awesome, and your enthusiasm is contagious. Here's a picture my niece took of us departing NY harbor. If you look closely, you'll see us waving at her!”
Jerilyn J’s Cruise
“Coggin Travels went above and beyond with us for this Oceania cruise on the west coast. They took care of everything including a reservation at the Beverly Hilton the night before so that we could enjoy dinner at our favorite LA restaurant, Crustacean and booking private transfers to and from the ship. As always the cruise on Oceania was wonderful and relaxing, and the staff went over the top for us. Great food, great shows, and a relaxing itinerary for a short 7 day cruise.”
Diana N’s Cruise
“Highly recommend Coggin Travels for planning any trip! Jeff was fantastic and shifted gears with us several times before finally choosing a European cruise for our vacation. He sat down with me for two hours to look at all of our options and we decided on the boat, place, and timeline that best fit our wants/needs. Jeff planned an awesome itinerary and the travel app was very helpful throughout our trip! He was patient, kind, and fun to work with! Thank you Jeff & Coggin Travels for an amazing vacation!”
Sara P’s Cruise
“Coggin Travels has helped us with several trips, both domestic and international. It is a pleasure to work with Jeff. He makes sure every detail is addressed in advance, and he offers suggestions to enhance your trip even further. Great experience!”

Thomas B’s Alaska Cruise
“It was awesome! I would highly recommend. “
Kathleen C’s Alaska Cruise
“We’re not cruise people — we never took a cruise before, and probably never will again, but this is the only way to see Glacier Bay, et al. Nonetheless, I was pleasantly surprised at how efficient Holland America was. With over 2,000 passengers, we were rarely standing in line anywhere.”
MIke S’s Alaska Cruise
“Jeff made wonderful arrangements for flights, lodging, transfers, and guided tours. His experience, thorough planning, and availability certainly helped make our vacation safe, productive, and FUN! Merci beaucoup!”
Julia B’s trip to France
“Cindy went over and above to insure we had a great trip. I will use Cindy again!”
Gail C’s Alaska Cruise
“Everything on this trip was amazing, from the crew, tour guides, the food and of course, the wine. And of course this wonderful experience would not have been possible without Jeff and Cindy Coggin and their great working relationship and friendship with Mirela! She was such a blessing! Thanks for this special memory of Croatia!”
Jean T’s trip to Croatia

Jim B’s trip to Croatia

Taylor J’s trip to Croatia
“Our experience was wonderful from start to end. Every detail was well thought out and executed flawlessly. Cindy & Jeff are amazing! We are so happy to have Coggins Travels handing all of our Travel needs!”
Craig S’s trip to Croatia
“This trip was very well put together. The country was beautiful and portrayed a very safe atmosphere. The people of Croatia were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Jeff and Cindy Coggins plus Mirela, our local tour host, worked very hard to try to ensure we all had a wonderful time. When one of our stops was not possible due to the wind conditions they quickly came up with a nice alternative. We also had a passenger who experienced a mishap and had to visit a local hospital. Cindy, Jeff and Mirela ensured that passenger got the best care. I definitely recommend this trip. My only suggestion is before taking this trip, or any trip, you ensure you understand the amount of potential physical activity involved to ensure it is the best trip/itinerary for you. (I also might think about adding one more night on the yacht/one more day in Split due to the amount of shops and potential opportunity to shop more. Also, some people might choose on that extra day to do another outing from there like the Blue Cave)”
Terri J’s trip to Croatia
“This was my first trip with Coggin Travel and all I can say is bravo for the best 15 days that I have ever spent with a group of people. The boat and its staff, plus food and drinks, made you feel at home. Every need was promptly taken care of always with a smile. The food, you couldn’t have asked for better. The side trips to all the cities had guides who were very knowledgeable and answered all questions with some stories to make it even more interesting. Cindy and Jeff gave us Mirela, who was like the big sister who was knowledgeable, passionate about her country, and concerned for all our needs. Jeff and Cindy couldn’t have made the trip more inviting with the love of travel that they prepare for to entice the traveler into a special part of their world. Gold stars all around! Will definitely book through Coggin Travels for all future adventures. “
Julie D’s trip to Croatia
“You couldn’t ask for better hosts. They were generous with their time and support with everything. I can’t imagine a better vacation ever. Thank you!”
Wendy M’s trip to Croatia
“This was an amazing trip! We loved the intimate size of the ship and the cozy feeling we had with all the guest, ship crew, our hosts. The extra’s that the staff did to honor special request of the guest was above and beyond (stopping for a quick visit at a highly recommended olive oil boutique; adjusting our route to include the stone quarry tour when weather impacted other plans and the swimming stops along our route – just to name a few) There were so many experiences!! I can’t begin to list- life long memories were created. Thank you Coggin Travels for putting this trip together – ya’ll are the best! We look forward to many more in the future. I love how you introduced us to new adventures in our big beautiful world! So much fun! “

Troy C’s trip to Europe
“We just took an amazing trip of the American West none of us will soon forget! Every transaction was as Jeff planned. He secured our flights, rental car, hotels, tickets for multiple top notch tours, and travel insurance. He planned and managed all of the logistical details. He was very knowledgeable about the area and it was evident he had visited the area himself (Phoenix AZ, Sedona, South Rim, Page, Zion, Las Vegas). He booked us with one of the most trusted airlines, reserved us an Infinity QX60 for a one way trip during a rental car shortage. This 10 day trip was all planned by Jeff in less than 48 hours. We began with a different travel company and at the last minute we were told our plans included unrequested time in Las Vegas, an airline we’ve never heard of before and we had to find our own rental car due to national shortage. I contacted Jeff and he replied the same day and this entire trip was booked in about 48 hours for the dates we originally scheduled. No complaints, only gratitude! We will definitely use Coggin Travels again and highly recommend this agent!”
