Joanna was exceptional to work with to plan a private surprise birthday celebration on the Unity Yacht for my husband. It was a superb event from start to finish. The yacht was perfect for our 18 guests; the caterer’s food was absolutely delicious and the DJ kept the party going all night. Highly recommend Allen Batista Travel for any special event!

I’ve been on at least 4 of AB Travel’s themed boat rides and they are always fantastic! You choose the theme that you like: magic show, salsa class, comedy show, belly dance, etc., and for a reasonable rate you get great entertainment and a wonderful evening on the water with amazing views of NYC.

I went to Washington, D.C. with Allen Batista and I must say the trip was fantastic. First class hotel breakfast included. We took the night tour around the city and next day we visited the museums. I would recommend ABT to anyone that may want to take a group on a week end tour and the price is right.

I attended a trip earlier this year, put together by Joanna, to Niagara Falls. With a group of a couple hundred students and their professors, the organization was on point. The buses kept to their itineraries on time, while the hotel was comfortable and centrally located. A well-organized group trip overall.
