North America: Our First Traveller!
Wednesday, August 29th, 2012*Phew*
It’s been a hectic couple of months since we launched our brand new Topdeck North America programme on the 4th of July. The response so far has totally blown us away - so many of you have booked and started planning your very own adventure with us.
A little bit of trivia for you: the first ever Topdeck North America holiday booked was a seven day Southeast States trip from New Orleans to New York. It was purchased by none other than Topdeck veteran Lorraine Kagatse who already has a massive six trips under her belt!
To say thank you for being our very first bookee we’ve shouted Lorraine a helicopter ride over the city that never sleeps, NYC.
Here’s a bit more about Lorraine…
Tell us a little about yourself.
I am 30 and live in west London. I enjoy going to concerts, reading, meeting new people, but my real passion is travelling. One of my favourite places I have visited is Sarajevo in Bosnia. It’s full of friendly people, great food and amazing history.
Where have you travelled to with Topdeck?
Venice Carnival, Amsterdam for Easter, Turkey, Morocco, Valencia for Las Fallas and Berlin for New Year.
What was your favourite trip story?
A hot air balloon ride over the chimney like rock formations in Cappadocia Turkey - it was like something out of a fairytale!
How would you sum up the Topdeck experience?
Fun and enjoyable. I have had many amazing and memorable experiences on the tours I have done and made lifelong friends from all over the world
What made you choose Topdeck North America?
The range of cities that would be visited and it was value for money.
What are you most looking forward to in the US?
Everything! The noise, the bustle and the food. Making new friends, shopping and my helicopter ride over New York!
Who would you recommend Topdeck to?
Anyone who enjoys travelling, having amazing experiences. It is also good for people who travel alone as it’s a great place to make friends
What has been your favourite travelling memory?
Celebrating my 29th birthday in Turkey on both the Asian and European sides - I got two birthday cakes and got to party with my new Topdeck friends
