TESTIMONIALS
Top Notch Partner
Advantage International have impeccable attention to travel details. They offer only the best to their clients and partnership with them in the past 3 years hasn’t disappointed during my role as President for South African Tourism in the Americas. Bangu Masisi
Excellent African-American Travel Programs
First of all, I am a very picky traveler. When I travel I expect luxury accommodations, and adventures as well. Advantage International, gives me all of that, and then some. I have traveled to Africa, Italy, Panama, Switzerland, Cuba, and Greece with A.I., and I have never been disappointed with my experience or accommodations. The best part about traveling with A.I. Is, once you book and pay, you can relax and enjoy, everything else is covered by Gene & JaVonne. The added bonus is, when you travel with A.I. You become part of this big traveling family, where everyone gets along and looks out for one another. A.I. always takes time to educate and inform you about your destination BEFORE you travel, and you have several opportunities to ask questions and concerns BEFORE you travel. I am looking forward to Dubai with A.I. In October! Temeka Strange
Great company

Amazing Customer Service
Awesome trips and amazing customer service. You can’t go wrong using Advantage International! Barry Macon, Director, marketing and Partnerships, TV-One
Platinum-Level Care
I didn’t expect group travel to be so much fun or for such a large group to bond so well. One of our tour mates lost her passport. Remarkably, another had a frat brother at the consulate in Cape Town who remedied her situation in no time flat. Ja’Vonne routed our buses by the consulate to pick her up as we began our day—and to everyone’s delight, we didn’t miss a beat. That’s platinum-level care!
Like part of a large travel family…
“I am so extremely happy that I bravely took this trip without any of my friends. I met so many wonderful people and you designed the trip so thoroughly that I felt like I was part of a large travel family. I look forward to expanding my travel events with Advantage International.”
A Wonderful Trip to South Africa!
“Many, many thanks for a wonderful trip to South Africa. We have traveled many places and none could come close to the way this trip was for all. We look forward to other trips.”
Extraordinary!
“The level of travel that you do is extraordinary. I’ve traveled with you for 13 years. I’ve traveled with other people and it has never been better than traveling with Advantage International.”
Small touches were most memorable…
“Through the years I have used different companies for client trips to various destinations around the world, but Advantage International was unique in the sense that the small touches you provide to each trip were the most memorable.”
Radio One Philadelphia
Thoughtful planning…
“Thank you for all the awesome experiences we have enjoyed due to your thoughtful planning and personal attention to every detail that continues to make each trip an experience that we truly enjoy.”
