“Hey Mrs. Brenda! Just wanted to let you know me and my daughter have just arrived back from our little getaway, and we had the best time and made wonderful memories! The Hilton was in the perfect location for us and the Rockettes were awesome! Thank you again for all your help!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!”

_ J. Anderson (Vanceboro, NC)

Christmas Spectacular (Radio City Hall), December 2019

“Where do I begin?  This cruise was my first cruise. Does the word

relaxing mean anything? It certainly does for me.  The trip was refreshing, calming, and most of all just plain fun. Imagine been catered 24/7 with nearly

everything being done for you, you just simple have to enjoy the moments.

Our cabin was perfect with a balcony giving us a great view of the sea. Let me say, the morning breakfasts were to “die” for and dinners were spectacular.

The events on the ship were numerous, there was entertainment so no boredom set in, and if anyone was bored, it is because you chose to be bored! to an

extreme, so if you got bored on the cruise, it’s because you just wanted

to be bored. I can not say anything negative about cruising on MSC’s Seaside.  Looking forward to cruising on other cruise lines now! Thanks Nomadic Star Travel – you provided excellent service!”

F. Moore (Alexandria, VA)

First Cruise - Impressive on MSC

“You did it again!  The Disney cruise was wonderful.  My entire family had an amazing time.  The adjoining staterooms and verandahs gave us plenty of room for the grandchildren to run and play and made babysitting so convenient.  If this trip wasn’t as good as St. Lucia it was very close. Thank you for your expertise and attention to detail.  Hawaii here we come!”

Dr. S. Carraway (Winterville, NC)

“The cruise was more than I expected, although I had issues with my knees.  Services from your agency was good, although I had a glitch with receiving my documents (Oceania’s problem). The experience was great. Long range goal is to do this again. Thank you for working with us.”

W. Carlton (Durham, NC)

Brenda and Jim,

I cannot begin to express my gratitude for the marvelous service you provided to me and my group for my retirement cruise. Working with a group of 35 was no easy task but you went above and beyond expectations to insure that everyone’s needs were met. You gave new meaning to the term full service travel agency. I will cherish the many memories of our group as I move into retirement. Thanks again for you attention to details and for the way you pampered us. Please know that Nomadic Star Travel is now the official travel agency for Union Baptist Church.

I am looking forward to planning more cruises and travel opportunities in the very near future.

Wishing you all the best,

Kenneth Hammond, Senior Pastor (Durham, NC)

“The Mediterrean Cruise to Monaco, France, Italy and Spain was a dream of a lifetime.  Doing a cruise like this one was on my bucket list.  The seven days on the Riveria were beautiful even though the weather was hot!!!!!!  I’m used to hot weather, but the weather In those countries seemed a wee bit hotter than in Norh Carolina.  The excursions and the visits in the cities were exciting and remarkable; however, the Riveria was something to behold.  The hospitality and service were excellent and we enjoyed “our butler”, Leslie.  Again, thanks for the opportunity to sail with you and Jim and we look forward to doing it again.”

Livingstone College, Salisbury, NC is in the infant stages of its international study abroad global initiative. This program includes sending Livingstone College students to other parts of the world and having students from institutions abroad come to Livingstone. To date there have been two students who travelled to Peru, South America, six students to  Invertis University, Bareilly, India, and six students from Invertis University to Livingstone College from August- December 2016 and three Livingstone students for summer 2016 study in China.

Livingstone College used Nomadic Star Travel as the travel agent of record for Livingstone College student travel. When there are students and faculty travelling to distant parts of the world many things can happen to interrupt travel plans. For example, two students travelling to China arrived in Chicago only to discover their American Airlines flight to Beijing had been cancelled. Within minutes after being notified by my students, the Nomadic Star representative had me on a three-way call with the agent at the gate assisting my students. I was kept on the telephone until the students were re-routed via Japan to Shanghai, China.

Other instances of changes of departure and return flight times and dates were performed well by Nomadic Star Travel. Through this agent, Livingstone College was able to secure all of the necessary insurance coverages for international travel. Livingstone College is very pleased with the performance of Nomadic Star Travel, LLC.

“Dear Brenda,

A note to thank you so much for your extraordinary work in arranging our family trip to South Africa!! It was a beautiful, fun, fantastic adventure and we will remember it forever!  That you took such great care, with grace and ease, in working out all the logistics for our group of ten is truly appreciated.

Oceania is a wonderful company and does many things absolutely top notch on their beautiful ships.  We especially enjoyed the terrific service, yummy cuisine, interesting excursions, the guest speakers and music groups and the very nice rooms with balconies that were awesome for viewing whales and sea lions! We had a delightful experience that included many individual, thoughtful surprises –  including balloons in our room, singing and a special cake for Mom’s birthday celebrated on the ship.  The holidays were also celebrated beautifully and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.

South Africa is an awesome part of the world – not to be missed.  The beautiful people, breathtaking and diverse environments, spectacular animals in the wild and in the sea…so much to enjoy and experience deeply.  We were welcomed everywhere and treated kindly in every port.  The days at sea on the Indian and Atlantic Oceans were beautiful and peaceful with an abundance of sights to observe and enjoy.

We had SO much fun!!!

Again, many thanks for your skill and efforts in making this wonderful trip possible of our family!  Hope you like the pics…Nomadic Star Travel rocks!!

With gratitude and appreciation,

Dee and Daureen”

L. Pippin (Greenville, NC)

“Thank you so much for all of your help with making this trip possible. Everything went very smoothly on the hotel end and we have no complaints. We had a very pleasant stay at the Double Tree.

B. A. (Farmville, NC)

“Hi Brenda,

Just wanted to take a moment to send you a Heartfelt Thank You!  I soooo enjoyed the Smooth Jazz Cruise and enjoyed both you and your husband Jim even more.  I truly had a FANTASTIC time and look forward to doing business with you in the future.  I will be recommending you to anyone that is in need of a GREAT Travel Agent!  I am also extremely happy to be a part of the “family”!!!! Again, thank you so very much for all your help!  I had a BLAST!!!!”

S. Fondren (Lansing, IL)

“Hello Brenda, winning the cruise in the silent auction was truly a blessing for us. We are travelers, and once we got on the ship,  a great time was had by all. We took full advantage of most cruise activities. We dined most meals in the formal dining room – all meals served and prepared to the finest. We now plan to incorporate additional cruises in our future. Thanks again Brenda!”

Renee D. B-H. (Greenville, NC)

“We had a wonderful time on the Smooth Jazz Cruise 2015, and look forward to joining you again in the future.”

Still on a cruise high since returning from Smooth Jazz Cruise. I had a great time.
Thanks for everything.

D. Pattani (Philadelphia, PA)

“Oscar and I had so much fun on the Smooth Jazz Cruise, January 11-18, 2015.  You and Jim were the perfect hosts from the time we met at the hotel with friends we had not seen since the last cruise. We especially liked you greeting us each night at dinner with great conversation about the fun activities of the day.  Oscar and I really appreciate the reserved seating each night at shows. Nomadic Star Travel,  YOU ROCK!”

I. & O. Little (Baltimore, MD)

Hi Brenda,

I am writing to thank you for our marvelous experience in the Bahamas on a Royal Caribbean cruise. Nomadic Star Travels provides the extra level of customer service that travelers need. From proactively sending me passport applications to checking on my family once we returned, Brenda Fairfax goes the extra mile. Mrs. Fairfax is courteous and prompt which adds value to time-starved mothers like myself who do not want to be involved in non-value added activities related to excessive follow-up. My sons are still talking about the cruise three months later. I would strongly recommend using Nomadic Star Travel to meet all of your travel needs.

Warmest regards,”

 

 

Dr. M. Patterson (Greenville, NC)

“Many thanks to Mrs Fairfax for making my summer vacation worry-free and very affordable. I recently had to travel to  Providence, RI  and Baltimore, MD. I had limited time and funds for the trip. I attempted to make arrangements but had trouble coordinating flight schedules to be compatible with my need to be at several places at specific times. Arriving in Providence in  time for my meeting without having to spend extra time there gave me the extra time I needed for Baltimore. I tried to do this myself without much success and my wife suggested Mrs. Fairfax who had successfully arranged other travel for her. Once I contacted Mrs Fairfax  everything was handled more efficiently and inexpensively than what I was able to do on my on. The next time I travel I now have to make only one call!!

Mr. E. German (Riverside, CA)

“Thanks Nomadic Star Travel for excellent service.  Our graduation cruise in June 2014 was very nice.  We enjoyed every thing and thanks for the t-shirts.”

Dr. J. McKenzie (Hampton, VA)

“The cruise was wonderful! Everything went well. The food was delicious, the weather was very nice, the beach at Great Stirrup Cay was very relaxing for us. We enjoyed the straw markets on shore at Nassau and other shopping areas. NCL is the way to cruise! Thanks Nomadic Star Travel.”

V. Boyd (Falkland, NC)

“My first travel agent happens to be my very dear friend, Brenda (Nomadic Star Travel). All of my personal trips are completely taken care of by Brenda.  I do not have to worry as she takes care of all details as if she was booking her own travel. I highly recommend Nomadic Star Travel if you are looking for travel agents that have that “personal” touch. Thanks Brenda.”

G. Fanning (Alexandria, VA)

“I took my first and certainly not my last International trip to Spain and Europe with Jim and Brenda Fairfax of Nomadic Star Travel. It was an awesome experience, stellar service. You’re not just a client; you’re a friend and part of the family; the Nomadic Star Family! From the onset (booking, reservations) to culmination (departures, return), the trip was well organized, planned, and executed. Jim and Brenda are committed to their clients having a good time, their comfort, safety, and ensuring that your needs are met! They go above and beyond…From Artist to Entreprenuer, I can’t begin to tell you the people I’ve met while traveling with them and places I’ve experienced. Nomadic Star Travel is always my first travel choice!!! They provide that personal touch of elegance and luxury; service above and beyond.”

“Awesome Smooth Jazz Cruise in January 2014. Wonderful group hosted by our friends, Jim and Brenda, owners of Nomadic Star Travel (NST). Delightful company, great music, fantastic food (group treated to specialty restaurant by owners one night while onboard), and superb service by NST. We were notified of all required actions from documentation, payment status, check-in status, and lodging accommodations prior to the cruise ~ kept abreast of every thing! If you have not traveled and want an agency that will provide personal attention to your travel needs, I highly recommend Nomadic Star Travel … they are true professionals!  Your experience(s) will be memorable.”

Oscar & Irene L. (Baltimore, MD)

“The services provided by Nomadic Star were personable, professional, efficient and all details were covered.  Brenda is thoughtful and communicates everything needed for a successful trip.

“We were very happy with Nomadic Star Travel. Brenda knew which cruise would be perfect for us and made all the arrangements. All we had to do was show up. Brenda went above and beyond to be sure all our questions were answered and expectations were met.  She even checked in with us while we were on the cruise to be sure we were having a good time. We had a fabulous time and look forward to the next cruise booked through Nomadic Star Travel. P.S. If you like smooth jazz music, have Brenda sign you up for the Smooth Jazz Cruise. Amazing!”
