Why I chose Susan Helfrich to be my Cruise Planner:
"After 30 years in the Entertainment Business I've employed countless agents, personal managers, business managers, lawyers and publicists. Since working with Susan, I realize I could have fired the whole lot of them and just hired her. And saved myself a whole lot of money. What a joy to discover her incredible and infinite expertise. It has made not only my maiden voyage with Holland America Cruise Line a complete success, but improved the behavior of my
children. Go figure."
Dirk Benedict, actor/writer/director

I want to say, yet again but never enough, that Susan Helfrich deserves all the credit for making this cruise not only a reality, but so completely void of problems. She worked so hard to make sure that all those who attended were comfortable and provided for.
Dirk Benedict

 


Susan Helfrich has been a HUGE blessing to work with. 
We have been working with celebrities for about a decade and we plan many events for them. In all the years that we have been doing events, fundraisers, and cruises Susan has been the easiest person to ever work with. She knows her clients and truly cares about them. She works extra hard to make everything just right and she is a woman of her word. Susan knows her stuff, because whenever we had a question she was always so happy to answer it and if she didn't know the answer she would find it out in record time. We hope to do many more events with Susan.
We pray the Lord's richest blessings upon Susan and every project she touches.
Your Friends,
The Chrisagis Brothers

I've had the pleasure of working with Susan Helfrich on a few of her celebrity group cruises on our "Fun Ship" Carnival Destiny. As you can imagine, Carnival, as the Most Popular Cruise Line in the World, carries more groups than anyone - - by a wide margin.  
Susan Helfrich, Cruise Event Coordinator is absolutely outstanding to work with:  Personable to her group guests and professional and proficient in coordinating all aspects of the groups activities.  Simply put, she's one of the very best group agents in the country!

Ahhhhh.....laska!
I'm still feeling the gentle sway of the Westerdam (my Holland America cruise ship) although I've been off the ship for a day now. My third Kurt Bestor Cruise is now over and I have many incredible memories, a group of new friends, and more than a few kilos to take off!

Thanks to Susan at Cruiseevenets.net who did a yeomans's job of cruise hosting. She's a delightful lady who really goes out of her way to make sure all have an unforgettable time.

All of my fellow cruisers are already talking about our next port of call. Be sure to check in on the website to find out just where we'll be headed.

Dear Susan,
This was my best cruise in its own way. Changes happens as has with all the cruises we done. The group has become closer and also new friends to meet and taken with warm arms to join. You, Susan, our mother Goose, did it again and made us feel happy and having fun. Thank you.
Let us not forget who brought us together for fun at sea, Dirk, our host. I thank him for always sharing something new to take with me to the future.

Haije Nielsen, Holland

The group this year, as last was terrific. They were all nice and we all got along famously. All I can say about my cruise experience  is that I've made friends for life and for that I must first thank Dirk for agreeing to do these cruises and
Susan for arranging them so well.

The fun I've had will stick with me for the rest of my life
and I also have lots of new friends to visit on holiday!!

This cruise was fun in every way, we all danced every night! 

My favorite part of the cruise was being with old and friends just being able to let loose and have fun without anyone judging. It was liberating and people really seemed to like me so that was a plus.
Thanks again for wonderful memories

Debster Marshall, England
