Road trip en californie
(Translated by Google) The website and its use to prepare our trip is very well done. We can modify the itinerary, the hotels, the duration...
For the return of our experience, we believe that some hotels are not necessarily do not necessarily deserve to be offered on this site because the hotel is of good standing but its geographical location is not good, either because the standing of the hotel does not correspond to the standard of quality that can be expected from the site.
Everything about reservations and organizing our trip, no surprises, everything was perfect.

USA with family
(Translated by Google) Family trip with 2 children aged 12 and 6, the organization was perfect and the distances between each site were suitable for a trip with children. The choice of hotels was also perfectly adapted both for their comfort and their proximity to the parks. Due to the health situation in the US, our route had to be adapted several times and we were able to benefit from the responsiveness of our adviser Charlotte and her advice to make our trip a success. Superb trip perfectly organized by a very professional team. [...]
Unforgettable trip!
(Translated by Google) We chose the "USA family" road trip and everything went perfectly! We configured our trip as we wanted and Authentik USA was always very responsive to our requests.
I really recommend this agency! The travel instructions were very clear, the road book ultra-complete, the reservations for hotels and excursions made and completely corresponding to what we had seen on the site. We had no bad surprises.
Our advisor was always attentive and always answered our questions very quickly, including during our trip. We really felt that everything was framed and very well organized. And that was very reassuring, especially traveling with 9 and 5 year olds.
A big thank you to Virginie and Authentik USA for allowing us to spend an unforgettable time with the family, without any false notes!

Exceptional trip to the American West
(Translated by Google) Week-long family trip to the American West: Magnificent, very varied and breathtaking landscapes!
Very well adapted road trip rhythm and good quality hotels organized by our very responsive advisor, Virginie!
A big thank you for this fantastic trip which will remain unforgettable for the whole family!
No grain of sand in the organization, amazing in the desert!
(Translated by Google) Hello,
Recommended by my godson who went through Authentik for Canada and West USA in a caravan, we (parents and 2 boys aged 18 & 21) loved the USA west coast which made it possible to satisfy everyone's sensitivities (Nature or urban environment - Authentic or kitsch galore). Hotel, course, road book corresponded to our expectations.
The downsides (because you need them otherwise it's not funny):
- Hotel mammoth moutain inn at Mammoth lake in a winter sports resort (low season for them) - 8 p.m. = curfew in the "city" => no restaurant, complete darkness - Hotel restaurant closed at 9 p.m. = > no more place to eat, we fall back on a dessert as a meal. We slept in a motel-type room (to see if it wasn't rather a well-equipped condo room planned) isolated in the basement next to the underground car park (a sign tells us not to leave food because of the bear!) - Wake up call and breakfast: no dish below 15€, no buffet and an interminable wait. Frozen sweets and duplicate order received. Positive point: Swimming pool and 4 Jacuzzis.
- Mammoth lakes (Again him) - Hilltop hot springs not found. The secret is actually well kept by locals and on the web. Provide a more precise gps point to access it.
- Valets in hotels and overpriced parking! Do not hesitate to avoid valets and/or park outside hotel car parks (if not provided) and in regulated but free places in cities because the budget can quickly explode - Especially in Los Angeles
- GPS (~280$) requested on the spot from the car rental company as planned while we received at the Hotel a pre-configured GPS (not normally provided) by Authentik with the Road Book. Shame!
Thank you to the guides Christophe and Vicky for the personalized visits (in private!) which allowed us to better immerse ourselves in local habits and customs.
Thanks to Virginie for her wise advice even though we didn't call her during our trip, which is a pretty good sign.
Recommended - For the rest, do you have an equivalent for Japan?

Unforgettable trip
(Translated by Google) Very nice trip, breathtaking landscapes and flawless organization
Great trip
(Translated by Google) Our trip went very well. We were very satisfied with the organization, the processing of our requests, the services booked and the advice provided in the Road Book which is extremely well done.
The only downside concerns the distance from our hotel in Yosemite (but we had probably booked too late), the hotel in Zion which was very nice but a bit tight for a family of 5 and the hotel in Barstow whose cleanliness frankly left much to be desired.

Total change of scenery
(Translated by Google) Very good agency, available and efficient
An exceptional and unforgettable trip :-)
(Translated by Google) From San Francisco to Los Angeles, a treat, unforgettable scenery. The best for us, Yosemite, Zion, Monument Valley, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon were essential for the three of us. The choice of hotels was very well done, we had a very good quality car (SUV) (almost 4500 km traveled :-))
In Los Angeles, we also did Universal studios, Venice Beach (disappointing) Santa Monica and even San Diego (in 4 days)
I thank the quality of listening of Manon and the seriousness of your agency ;-)
Another time for other adventures

Excellent !
(Translated by Google) Dear Mrs Gibeau,
We would like to thank you especially for all the organization of this wonderful trip. Once again you and your company had been quite impressive in terms of organization and choice of hotels. Hats off to you for your kindness and kindness.
The only downside that we should underline is the maintenance of the stay in Yosemite despite the fires (almost no activity possible) and the Catamaran Resort hotel which, despite the description, did not have any rooms with kitchens.
We sincerely thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
Good for you
Marie and Olivier Renard

Unforgettable family trip prepared with great care by Charlotte Mathiere
(Translated by Google) First experience with Authentik USA to renew without hesitation
We plan to do Texas in 2020 hoping that this state of the USA, will face the Authentik USA program at this time !!!!!!
an unforgettable trip
(Translated by Google) Very nice trip, very well organized with an advisor always available, thank you Manon, in short we advise with eyes closed
An unforgettable and very well organized stay
(Translated by Google) We came back delighted with our American stay, with lots of memories and beautiful photos. Our only regret will be that we weren't able to enjoy Yosemite Park as much as planned due to the fires that had made it largely inaccessible.
The organization was very satisfactory, especially since we had to react quickly (the day before our departure) to reschedule 2 nights in the hotel initially planned in Yosemite, in an area that had become difficult to access due to the fires. and smoke when we were supposed to stay there.
Then, the stay went as planned and we were very happy.

Very good stay, no bad surprises
Up to our expectations
very good holidays.
(Translated by Google) Overall a very good organization. both upstream and downstream. 2 wrong gps points on our pre-programmed gps. which earned us a postponement of an activity in the afternoon to the morning. Accommodation as advertised.
Remarks . 2 activities not in line with expectations. : rafting on the colorado is not white water rafting as we imagined but a balla of inflatable boat. therefore less interesting. jeep activity. 'pink' from

wow !
(Translated by Google) Dear Laurine and dear Authentik team
Thanks to you we had an unforgettable trip.
You were competent, patient, reactive, professional.
This trip is a success and we would like to thank you for it.
We visited magical places.
No missteps, no regrets.
Only beautiful and wonderful.
We would like to thank you because it is rare to be able to count on real travel agents, and I speak about it knowingly, because I was one "in another life".
If this trip filled our hearts with joy, we owe it in large part to you.
Such an important trip requires preparation, even for months, and with you I was listened to and understood.
I'm already preparing for the 2019 trip and I'm counting on you.

Magnificent stay!
(Translated by Google) We really enjoyed it. the organization of our trip, the different choices of accommodation, the road-book a valuable tool with a maximum of details on the trip, very well done. In addition Charlotte told us the routes on the associated road maps. Finally with the GPS (offered!) pr& scheduled impossible to go wrong.... Bravo! and thank you again. We recommend Authentik to our friends. [...]
A very well thought out dream trip with unforgettable experiences. 110% satisfied. WELL DONE !
(Translated by Google) A very well balanced trip; as a route, choice of hotels and level of services, locations in relation to visits and entertainment. Very good exchanges with Authentik USA throughout the preparation. Availability of our interlocutor. We can only be satisfied with Authentik which allowed us to organize this family trip by responding exactly to our needs. our request. [...]
Successful trip
(Translated by Google) The experience was very good. However, some of the hotels offered are a little too far from the parks, such as the budget hotel for Zion located at the hotel. to St George. Staying only one night, we had no warning on this point. We noticed this and were able to change a month before departure. But for novices from the USA, it is important to be well advised. so as not to regret it once there.
Our advisor reacted well when we told her what to do. that the hotel goulding lodge had taken from us; a second time the amount of the night. However, I will not be reimbursed. bank charges of 4.14€ corresponding to; the operation.
Just as I have not been refunded aggio fees from my bank when it charged me; 2 times the balance of the trip because the first direct debit had been in Euro;.
If we have to do usa or Canada àgrave; again, we think we'll come back to you.
Extra road book.

A very nice well organized trip.
(Translated by Google) No problem for this autotour which took place without any unpleasant surprises, whether concerning accommodation or activities. Beautiful memories to; the key. Thanks to; our advisor.
Very nice trip, perfectly organized.
(Translated by Google) 3 weeks in the American West is obviously a dream come true! Our stay there went perfectly, without any unpleasant surprises in terms of the organization of the stages and the hotels, which were on the whole of good quality. The vehicle was comfortable to cover the 3900 km of our journey and adapted to our journey. to the volume of our luggage. Our advisor even told us during the stay an incident related to to the fall of a rock on the road we had to take! No additional costs for accommodation or for the car (apart from petrol of course). [...]
Great Trip
(Translated by Google) Why 4 stars and not 5?
- The organization proposed by Authentik USA was perfect, the Road Book very well done and the few restaurant choices very interesting. We only encountered no difficulty. No problem when picking up the car, the choice of rooms was good. respected. For the organization I would give 5 stars.
- On the other hand, we had some mishaps, but not directly related to Authentic USA
1- In one of the hotels (rather expensive) the swimming pool was of a high quality. more than doubtful, many people complained, the water was cloudy there were questionable substances floating. When we informed the pool staff and the hotel management considered this normal!! Not me and not to this price !
2- We stayed at the Grand Hôtel in; Grand Canyon, this hotel is in a superior category and given the location was certainly one of the most expensive of the trip. We have been surprised to have unironed sheets. When I informed the direction of the hotel of my astonishment this one explained to me; that he had no "facilities" but that the sheets were clean. At this price there; ? In the USA? It's just a shame! I stayed in many hotel of different categories in many countries and this is the 1st time that I have a bed with unironed sheets. !! Even in the middle of Tanzania under the tents the sheets were ironed!

We lived a dream with our eyes open!
(Translated by Google) We recommended Authentik USA at; everyone around us: no worries, no problems. From car rental (a Dodge Charger!), to hotel reservations, and guided tours (thanks to Françoise, our guide in Yosemite for the picnic at the edge of the stream), everything went perfectly.
Thanks also to; Virginie, our advisor, always prompt and precise in her answers
Very nice trip!
(Translated by Google) Dense but well-paced road trip allowing you to see as many things as possible while maintaining the pleasure dimension of discovery and without excessive fatigue. provided you have a comfortable vehicle
A wonderful trip.
(Translated by Google) Hello,
Overall I am satisfied with some constructive remarks:
- very useful and well done road book (adaptation concerning the speed limit 65 to 70 and even 75 miles sometimes, remember to indicate and perhaps add only for access to the parks Nationals from 3 entries, there is an advantageous subscription.
- concerning Hotels:
SF hotel Cova, no problem for the hotel but neighborhood with a lot of homeless (I think we can find better)
Hotel Best Western Meriposa for Yosemite Park, too far from the park, 1h15 drive, 2h30 over the day, it's too much.
The accommodation on "Page" nice.
Brice Canyon Hotel Best western, room for the disabled, somewhat gloomy atmosphere
Overall no problem of organization and excellent memories.
Good day.

(Translated by Google) Quick email exchange, French language for telephone interview. The hotels in Mammoth lakes (Alpenhof), Springdale (Driftwood lodge) and àgrave; Las Vegas (Hilton) were very good choices.
Road book, perfect description, except for our arrival at Vegas. We had a lot of trouble find DOLLAR, located finally in the parking lot of the Treasure Island hotel, then at the hotel. find the floor where their office was. The Hotels offered at EL portal, Yosemite view lodge and & Stovepipe wells are quite "average" and out of the way to interesting areas.
[...]
(Translated by Google) What I liked the most during our trip it is the insurance to have the reservations for the hotels and the circuits well elaborated.
The most critical point is the car rental company (dollar) which is not at all available. the height from the point of view of the park of its vehicles and the maintenance of these. two vehicles taken during this stay and two vehicles more than 50,000 kilometers with brake and cleanliness problems. After many exchanges with other tourists, it seems that ALAMO is more efficient. In this type of trip, the vehicle is more than important and unfortunately, your distance does not allow you to choose the most effective partner.
