Testimonials

Whether it's inspiring you to visit an authentic family owned taverna, or visit a destination you'd never considered before, Travel Secret Source's mission is to give you recommendations to make your trip something you'll remember for a lifetime. 

My fiancé and I wanted to make our bucket list dream of visiting Greece a reality, and James created the perfect itinerary for us. He recommended an incredible mix of cities, history, and island hopping that let us experience the authentic side of Greece while avoiding the typical tourist crowds. One of the highlights of our trip was spending our final evening in Milos watching one of the most breathtaking sunsets from a café James recommended. It was the perfect way to end an unforgettable vacation. We couldn’t recommend James more for anyone looking to experience Greece beyond the usual tourist attractions.

James is my go-to source for where to eat, shop, and stay whenever I’m exploring a new city. I’ve followed his recommendations across Italy, France, and NYC, and every pick has been an absolute treasure. James’ well-curated list of restaurants, activities, bakeries and shops, helped me set an itinerary for a recent mother-daughter trip to Paris. My mom and I especially loved dining at Le Procope, a restaurant with rich food and even richer history!

James is a visionary in everything he does. So naturally every place he has recommended to me has managed to be both culturally enlightening and aesthetically outstanding. His list of suggestions for my Athens exploration spanned chic gallery-filled neighborhoods and charming bakeries that made me fall in love with the energy of the city. I cannot wait to see where he goes next. His page should be everyone’s first stop when planning an upcoming adventure.

After watching James' beautiful videos my partner and I decided to visit Corfu and Paxos/Antipaxos. We were so happy with James' suggestion of booking the boat day cruise around Paxos with Yianni at Paxos Classic Cruises. All of his tips for our trip helped so much. My heart stayed in Paxos and absolutely loved Corfu, I could have stayed another couple of days!  

I went on a solo trip to Sicily in September last year. James had a plethora of reccs. An unexpected recommendation was the Majolica tile museum! A truly unique museum which had a tour explaining the fast history of a lot of these tiles. Some were hundreds of years old! Would put on my list if I was in Parlemo! :)
