Testimonials

My husband and I went on our first of what will be many “Happy” trips to the Galápagos Islands. The trip exceeded my expectations. The “Happy” vibe permeated the entire experience and Robert has so much to do with it as it starts from the top and trickles down to everyone. All of our accommodations were wonderful, clean, local, charming and staffed with such friendly people who truly loved having us there. We loved our guides and not only learned from them, but became friends with them. It’s so nice to be able to go what I call, “deep local” and really experience such a magical place as the Galápagos. So many destinations are westernized these days....this refreshing trip reminded me of why I love to travel and how very “Happy” it makes me. Robert, thank you for spreading your infectious happiness and love of travel.
We can’t wait until our next trip.

I have been on many trips, & nothing comes close to the fun and laughter I had with this one. Ecuador does a great job with COVID19 precautions, & made me feel safe traveling. Our hotel hosts were warm and accommodating. Our guides Danny and Jorge were enthusiastic to share their love of the Galápagos Islands with facts and entertaining stories complete with sound effects. I was fortunate to be with an energetic, spontaneous, playful group. At the dance floor, a restaurant, or on the bus there was always something fun and funny going on, and nothing stopped this group from bursting into singing. Robert took care of the details, big and small. I don’t bike and I appreciate him for attempting to rent a tandem bike so I wouldn’t be left behind. Since none were available, he had a guide accompany me to snorkel instead. Robert, thank you for putting together an amazing trip!

I just returned from my first Happy trip (Galapagos) and am completely hooked! If you like to laugh, have fun, be active and adventurous while you travel, then you must try a Happy trip! Our guides, Danny and Jorge, were so knowledgable, helpful, fun, and relaxed. Every transition was perfectly timed and seamlessly orchestrated whether we were traveling by van, bus, boat, ferry, foot, plane or bike so that my only job was to relax and enjoy experiencing all the Galapagos has to offer without a worry or care. The mix of activities was ideal--snorkeling, hiking, biking, walking, eating, drinking, dancing. I loved all the family-run hotels we stayed in and also felt like there was just the right mix of time together with the full group and alone/couple/small group time in the evenings. I was wondering what it would feel like to travel during Covid and happy to report that I felt safer on this trip than I do at home! Robert, thanks again for the amazing trip!

Happy Tour,
Happy People
What a vacation! Truly, a bucket list vacation. It was the most active vacation I've ever experienced. We traveled several times up to 12,500 feet, we took six planes, two trains and numerous vans. We hiked 10 hours, 13 miles one day. An experience of a lifetime. We want to sincerely thank Robert and his travel agency "You Can't Steal my Happy". Check him out on Facebook if you would like to travel with him in the future, I know we will! We made some wonderful new friends for life. Could not have asked for a nicer group of people to experience Peru with.

Happy In Machu Picchu
Just want to say that our Machu Picchu experience was fantastic! Everything worked. I thought the pacing was good; we were able to see and do a lot in a short time while not trying to overdo it. Cynthia was a great leader; enthusiastic, taking care of details, letting us know what was coming up next. Freddie, Sandro, Claudio and the other Peru contingent were amazing; very information on what we saw and visited and they were personable and lots of fun to be with. My wife and I very much look forward to traveling again with You Can't steal My Happy. Mark & Barbara Fridell

Fantastic Experience in Cambodia!!
Hello, my name is Scott and I am about to tell you what a Fantastic Experience I was fortunate to enjoy in Cambodia with "You Can't Steal My Happy." This was my first trip with this organization. I decided to arrive 2 days early to become fimilar with my surroundings. Upon arrival, I noticed that Robert Hearn had already checked in and sent him a text to let him know, I was there. We had never met and decided to meet for breakfast in the morning. We met and arter introductions, we talked and talked about ourselves to establish a foundation pertaining to our past, present and our future. As our conversation progressed, I realized we would become life long Friends, as we shared many of the same goals. I was really going to enjoy this adventure! As the tour progressed, I was amazed at how Robert had indeed done his research and provided a service which was exactly what I had hoped for my first experience in Cambodia and "Happy in Cambodia" I highly recommend Robert and his company to anyone who wishes to travel without the hassle of planning your next vacation. I am already planning to be a part of the Belize trip in Oct. Happy Travels!!!!!!! Sincerely, Scott Mc Canle

I just wanted to say how much Pat and I enjoyed our Happy in Victoria Falls trip (Sept. 15-21) and the hospitality at the Nhkosi Livingstone Lodge! Kathy and Sonile did a fantastic job of providing all of us with an adventure-filled itinerary, comfortable accommodations, and supportive communication when we had any question or concern. Honestly, we couldn't have asked for more! This was our first YCSMH trip, and we are looking forward to more. Thank you: Rob, Bailey, and YCSMH!!

We just got back from our Machu Picchu trip. As you know it was beyond fantastico!! Omg! I loved every single minute. Sandro, Saul and their local crew…. OMG!!! Beyond beyond amazing! They were so fun, so Knowledable , such hard hard working guides, carrying all our stuff, carrying our lunches up the Inca trail, always so helpful, so everything! I think I fell in love with Sandro!! Omg! Lol. And Miss Becky!! She was sooo good too! So calm and so sweet and so helpful. She was awesome ! So thank you for all you do cuz I would have not gone without your organized trip.

Loved this trip & your company. Impressed with Bailey, Ryane & Bentony & all support staff & guides.

Well run, no hiccups & loved all the good surprises as the trip built each day better & better!

I’ve traveled with several other travel groups for over 20 years & loved the smaller group size. Great job!

I’ll be watching for other trips with your company & have already referred friends.

A few years ago, while sitting in Baltimore Airport, I met a friend who had just returned from a memorable trip to the Galápagos Islands. She enthusiastically recommended a travel company called "Happy," emphasizing that their only requirement was that travelers join with a positive attitude. I thought to myself, "That's something I can definitely do."

My wife has always wanted to visit Iceland, but she doesn’t enjoy traveling the way I do. I tend to embrace spontaneity, figuring things out as I go. A few years ago, I decided to join Bailey and the Happy Team on a trip to Iceland. That experience solidified my commitment as a loyal and dedicated Happy traveler. While I know there are many travel companies offering similar trips, I feel a much deeper connection with this group.

Bailey was my introduction to both Happy and Iceland. While exploring Iceland, we committed to a Scandinavia trip with Bailey just a few months later. During that journey, I signed up for a Vietnam trip and was overwhelmed by the warmth and hospitality we experienced. Our guides, Ryan and Robert, demonstrated incredible dedication to the communities we visited, which is a defining quality of Happy's travel philosophy.

I must also mention Dana, who was an outstanding guide during our tours of Nepal and Bhutan. Her expertise and warmth added so much to our experience.

I can confidently say I will always be a loyal Happy traveler. A special thanks to Bailey for the incredible introduction to this remarkable company. The Galápagos trip was spectacular, and our guides were knowledgeable, engaging, and true professionals.

Please don’t change a thing — I have so many more places to visit, and I want to explore them the Happy way!
