When planning group travel, there is that one person who ends up being in charge, whether it’s by job title, accident or having a reputation for detail.

And, here YOU are. You are in the right place for destination ideas, help with logistics, and solid support from initial planning and booking through the return. It’s a lot to handle for a small group, much less for hundreds or thousands of people. We’re going to become your best friend.

Let me start by saying THANK YOU to you and your team. You guys really took a lot of the stress off of my plate, and I knew I could trust you to handle our top customers with white glove service. I especially want to give kudos to Jason. He flawlessly handled a number of our international customers who had canceled flights the day before our event and was an amazing partner… Could not have asked for anyone better!” - Tony M., NYC

Rio, Bogota, Helsinki, Munich, Miami, Patagonia, New York City, Detroit, Scottsdale and D.C. These are just a few destinations of corporate meetings that we’ve planned. Whether you have a set tour itinerary that must be followed, a sales goal you’re incentivizing or charged with bringing fresh ideas to a legacy meeting location, you take the credit, we’ll work tirelessly behind the scenes.

Through our buying power with First in Service Travel and our A-list industry connections, the best pricing, service and perks are at your group’s service.

I just wanted to send a quick note to say thank you for all of your help with the Atlanta trip. It really could not have been any better. The hotel worked out wonderfully and the staff there was so helpful. My entire group was able to get early check-in, the boxed lunches were perfectly on time and delicious, and the location was just right for our meetings. Everything from flights to buses to the weather was just spot on perfect. It was a roaring success and all of your behind the scenes work made me look very good!” - Megan M., NYC

I’m sure you just had a very busy last couple of days with the blizzard hitting the NE.

Wherever You Travel. Whatever You Do. CIRE Travel’s Got It Handled.
"We got a solicitation voicemail yesterday from some corporate travel agency down the street, and I made a point of calling them back just to tell them that we were so happy with our travel guru, CIRE Travel. We didn’t need to hear about their corporate travel planning services because we were not looking to change. Shortest solicitation call of my life.”

– Emilian P, Cyber Security – Washington, DC

"Eric is so great that he takes care of problems before you even know there is a problem, especially with weather delays and other travel snafus. I cannot say enough good things about Eric and his team and highly recommend them for both personal travel and corporate travel planning needs!” 

– Benjamin, Media – New York

"I was spending countless hours on travel booking and airline websites. What was taking me a ridiculous amount of time to do, CIRE Travel handled in minutes. And with a trip involving three airlines and four airports, I’m relieved knowing that if something goes wrong, I just call CIRE.” 

– Brenda H, Advertising – Kansas City

"Eric is wonderful! He helped me organize a week-long conference in New Delhi and he managed each piece seamlessly—from the flights to the hotels to the ground transportation. He knew all about our various options within New Delhi and helped weigh in thoughtfully as we finalized our contracts with each vendor. He was a genuine pleasure to work along every step of the process!”

–Preeti B, Fashion – New York

"Eric is truly the best travel planner. He goes above and beyond every time, without fault. He seizes absolutely every opportunity to improve and enhance your travel experience. As a client, I know I benefit each trip from the relationships he has established, and the credibility and outstanding reputation he has earned in the industry. His disposition, ease, and professionalism qualitatively set him apart. Regardless of the request, the urgency, the challenge, he handles each issue and transaction with a calm and efficient attitude. Above all, he is just a great person and simply such a pleasure to work with. I have and will continue to recommend Eric, without hesitation and unconditionally, to anyone who needs a corporate travel agent. And if you think you don’t need one, after working with Eric for a couple of times, you’ll wonder how you lived without him.”
