We had an awesome time in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Dee's Travel handled everything from top to bottom so we didnt have to worry about a thing!!! Would definitely recommend them to anyone traveling!!!
Great trip!! Smooth from beginning to end!! Rock did a great job! Love Jamaica!
I have used Dee's travel for about 4 trips now and you will not get faster, more detailed service from anyone else. When I call they start looking while I am on the phone and if they can't answer a question they will get the answer and email, text, or call you back within an hour or less most cases. You can't go wrong using them.
These guys are the best
Rock was very professional and was very helpful in helping to plan our vacation.
Me and my girl friend never went out of the country and this will be our first trip to Cancun. Dee's travel has answered any question we have had and made a smooth process of booking.
They always go above and beyond to get ur trip booked ,if you have any questions just ask ..if it can be done itll get booked for ya..
Once again Dee's Travel Agency has made setting up a vacation stress free! The service and knowledge as well as recommendations could not be any better. 5 stars is an understatement. I will always use Dee's for setting up all my vacations!
Thank you for providing great customer service and prompt service. Very competitive on pricing and by far the cheapest in the area. Can't wait for our trip to Jamaica and many more trips to come. You are appreciated, keep up the good work!
Rock is a pleasure to work with and responds to all your questions promptly. He is our go to for our travel needs! Thanks again Rock
Deanna and Rock got our vacation booked quickly which we are so happy about. Very easy process and they are very pleasant to work with! We cannot wait to go to Florida!
Got me setup with a nice vacation quickly with no hassle!! Very simple fast and easy! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Dee's Travel Agency helped me with every detail in planning my All Inclusive trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico. Basically all I had to do was give them my passport and payment information they took care of the rest. They were very informative of what we would need and expect. The trip far surpassed my expectations.
Dee's Travel was extremely helpful in setting up a cruise for us. As first time cruisers, they made the extra effort to make sure we understood everything and were comfortable. We were extraordinarily pleased with their service and will absolutely be using them again! Thanks so much!!
Rock is absolutely amazing! Easy to work with and always available! Can't wait to keep booking more trips with him! Finds amazing trips and even more amazing trips! Disney is absolutely amazing... and last minute changes have been so easy with him!
Wow, is what I say! When we text a question the response is returned so quickly which makes Rock a ROCK! Blessed to be able to book memories through him! Thanks Therese
Excellent experience! They saved me almost $1000 on my trip and answered all of my questions. I will definitely be using for all of my trips from now on!
Great experience!! Perfect trip with no issues!
Just planned a trip for April, Rock was very tentative and knowledgeable. Made me at ease from the beginning. Thank you, looking forward to our vacation .
For my first time booking a trip to an island, Rock gave great advice and personal recommendations. He was always available through email, text or phone, even on the weekends. We will be working with him again!
Excellent service!!! Pleasure to work with these folks.
Rock was very helpful! This is my third time booking with a Dee's Travel Agency and it was a great experience! He was very informative and helped me pick the best resort for what we were looking for, be even answered every single one of my questions and I had a million! I will definitely be working with him again! Thanks for everything!
My sister recommended Rock and Deanna to me for a last minute trip we wanted to book. It was great to be able to plan an entire trip via Facebook and email and not having to plan out or schedule a time to meet and plan a trip. They gave us many travel options for the Dominican republic and we definitely plan on using them again for future trips!
Rock was great to work with, and was able to find the best prices for our vacation in order to make it work out. He took care of everything, and made himself available to speak on the phone if need be. My first time using a travel agent and I would definitely do so again.
Rock was very helpful in finding my friend and I the trip we wanted and never became impatient no matter how much we changed our minds or questions we had. Can't wait for Rivera Maya in August! Thanks!
I can't say enough about this travel agency. Thus far, I have booked through them twice. I was all set to go on one trip and I had a family emergency. Rock took care of EVERYTHING. He was gracious, courteous, and helped put my mind at ease. We are traveling to Mexico in May, and again, he found the best deal for an all inclusive. I really tried to beat his deal, but when all is said and done, this agency got my business and will continue to do so.
Rock was awesome! Will definitely be using them again in the near future!
Rock was great to work with and gave me all the options quickly. It made everything very easy. All I had to worry about was packing. I will definitely travel through Dee's Travel Agency again!
I highly recommend Dee's travel agency. It didn't matter what time of the day it was if I had a question I could call Dee's and they always answered the phone if they didn't have the answer to my question they would call me back within the hour with the answer. This is my first time traveling with this agency but I can highly say it won't be the last .
Excellent planning for our group trip to Punta Cana!
Loved working with Dee's and great pricing!
I believe this is the third time that we have used Rock to handle our travel plans. He has done an amazing job each and every time (Dominican and Jamaica). He will answer your phone call or email practically any time of the day or night. Rock is able to offer pricing that the "big name" travel agencies can't touch. Even more important than the cost savings is the superior customer service from start to finish when planning your trip! You never have to worry that something has been missed as Rock takes care of literally everything.Thanks again Rock and we are looking forward to our trip to Aruba and the next trip after that!
"Got my family and I great prices :) love you
Dee's Travel Agency was able to find a 4.5 hotel for a very afortable price, everything included. I highly recommend this Agency. Thank the Rock for always having such a good communication with me to let me know everything that was going on.
best travel agents!!!! they went above and beyond for my booking!!! very professional, very courteous!!! absolutely the best prices around!!!! I would recommend Dee's travel.agency for your vacation needs!!!! I will definitely use them in the future!!!! thanks Rock and Deanna can't wait for my all inclusive trip to Punta cana!!!!
I contacted Dee's travel Agency for information regarding an all inclusive resort for my husband and I. I spoke with Rick and he was extremely knowledgeable, personable and most of all willing to go above and beyond to find the right package for us. We booked our vacation and a few days later I reached out to Rick to gather some more information about a couples resort. Rick immediately got back to me with other packages and pricing and offered to switch the booking. I was surprised at how easy it was for Rick to change things around to accommodate my husband and I and we are so appreciative. Thank you, Rick!!!
Dee's travel was outstanding in planning our first vacation together. Rock went above and beyond our expectations. I would highly suggest all who take vacations to try Dee's travel. He worked with us as we had to push back our original dates and even got us an extra day for nearly nothing. They are someone you can trust and do business with. Thank you so much Dee's Greg and Patty
What a great time we had on our first cruise, Rock and his team did a great job helping me with this surprise for my wife. I always had my questions answered in a timely manner and it always felt like Rock had my back!! I would highly recommend this travel agency as I will be using them as well!! Thanks Dee's travel agency 👏
We booked our honeymoon to Jamacia with Dee's and everything went so very smoothly, from the plane to the shuttles and the resorts. Therefore, when we decided to travel again we used Dee's once more. We booked our trip for June 2018 in November 2017 with 4 other couples. Even though there was a little mix up with couples during booking everything turned out fine and was effortless on our part. Then, in December one of the couples broke up. Rock helped them get almost a full refund even though they had not purchused travel insurance. Then my husband and I found out we were expecting a baby in October. We told Rock we would have to cancel due to the fact that I would be almost 7 months pregnant and the risk of Zika. Rock helped me file the claim with the travel insurance and after it was denied (even with a doctors note) he went to bat for us and was able to get us 7/8 of our money back thus far. He is still working on the last portion! Rock will help your travel go smoothly, even when those unexpected life events occur. He will help accomadate his clients to the best of his ability.
Rock has been amazing in helping us book our dream vacation. I had hundreds of questions and he answered them no problem. I can't wait for April to relax in the sun in the Dominican Republic!
Any experience I've had with this travel agency has been excellent. Speedy communication, great deals and they really make an effort to get you what you want! I will continue to have them book my get-aways, big or small!
Rocky was great to work with!!! Our vacation was just what we needed thanks to D's travel. We wanted to go to Jamaica and what a vacation we had. I highly recommend Jamaica and D's travel agency. Way to go Rocky!!!
This is the second time we have asked rock to help with planning a trip. Last year to Mexico and this year to Costa Rica! I love that I can message Rock and he gets right back to me! He also is accommodating to my neurotic personality. Answering every question and filling in the blanks for me. Traveling is easy woth Dee's Travel Agency! We aren't local ( anymore) and still Rock knows his stuff and gets you the deal! Great service, prompt and informative! Book woth rock today!! ❤
I'm so glad I met Rock and Dee (on vacation, nevertheless!). They are professional, fast, experienced, and just all around nice folks. Both rooms, airport transfers, and package details have been amazing even beyond what I expected (or have experienced in the past with other companies or by myself). I have already traveled twice through them, have another trip booked, and plan to continue working with them.
So happy with Dee's travel agency. Rock came through again. He got us the exact time we wanted to go to Jamaica & even did a later upgrade that we requested. Thanks again. We'll be back!
Rock was awesome. He helped my fiance and I greatly. We knew that we wanted to go to the Caribbean for our honeymoon but we were not sure what island to go to. Rock gave us his honest opinion and set us up with a trip to Sandals Royal Caribbean in Jamaica. Our honeymoon is not until October 2018 so we have a while to wait but I am sure that everything will be fantastic!
Rock was awesome dealing with us and our friends/family for organizing and planning our upcoming trip to Jamaica. I will definitely use him again and will recommend him to others!
I called Dee's Travel Agency on a Monday morning at 10. Just a feeler call regarding All-Inclusive to Mexico or Dominican Republic for my wife and me. By the time the call ended, I felt comfortable enough to give Rock the go-ahead to start his research. Long story short, by the next day, we had a vacation to Cancun picked out and booked! Rock was awesome as far as his knowledge and research to all the different resorts. He was able to get us the best price possible along with the ocean front room! We're leaving in Jan 2019 and we couldn't be more excited! I highly recommend Rock and Dee's Travel Agency for any type of vacation you may be planning. We'll give a follow-up once we return, Thanks again Rock and Dee for all the work in such a short time!
Im working with Rock to attend my best friends wedding in Jamaica He has been very helpful with all of my questions and keeping me informed as the process unfolded. This will be my first trip using a travel agent as an adult and he has been wonderful to work with and i would recommend him to anyone who needs knowledgeable advice when planning a trip. he covered all the bases and told me what i needed to do in order to travel internationally. The trip is in November and I am pretty positive it will be smooth sailing from here. We cant wait!!
We have been using Dees Travel agency dor years, we have never ever been disappointed with th high quality of travel service we have been givin, the point is he's has never sent us anywhere that's was not exceptional and price worthy, we have had small issues at Check in at the resorts...we call Dees Travel agency from the carribian mind you, and he takes care of everything from the states , what travel agent do you know that is available 24 -7. , we have used many other agents in the past and they have the most personal ,honest , loyal service I have ever encountered, so for your next trip please call them you won't be disappointed.

These guys were great at helping us plan and execute our short-notice vacation.
Efficient and professional.
From beginning the journey, keeping in touch during the visit and following up after, Rock is so helpful. Transitions from airport to and from resort were flawless.

Can't wait for out next adventure !

I have 2 trips this year alone that I've booked through Dee's travel agency. I have recommended their services to family and friends as well. I highly recommend them !
Fantastic and easy to work with.
We haven't going on our cruise yet, but Rock did a great job getting the early dinning that we wanted. When Disney was having a high call volume, he stayed on the phone for hours to get us what we wanted. We will diffidently us Dee's again.
Dee's Travel was recommended by friends of ours, and we would recommend this agency to others. Rock helped us plan a honeymoon/vacation to Jamaica where we enjoyed stunningly beautiful beaches. He was friendly, prompt in his responses and paperwork and very knowledgeable. He also helped us stay within our budget. Thank you, Rock!
Rock did a great job helping us pick our vacation. He was very patient and answered a lot of questions back and forth. I would highly recommend you consider them for all your future travel needs.

Once again I would like to thank Rock from Dee's travel as always he surpasses my expectations with service. I just booked my 4th trip with Dee's travel agency and what sticks out the most for me is rocks patience as I jump around trying to figure out where to go, when to go or how many people I will be taking, he's always quick with a response I even nto the evening hours which I so much appreciate because of my work schedule so once again I thank you very much Rock for all you do for me and my family and I give you a 5-star rating and always refer friends and clients to your business
This is the second trip that I have booked through Dee's Travel ! Rock does a fantastic job meeting all our expectations . Promptly answers any questions or concerns. I will be booking next year again with Dee's Travel!
We use rock Arnold with Dee's Travel every time we travel outside the country. Our group of about 20 this time experienced a catastrophe this trip with our boss becoming very ill. We called Rock and he helped settle any and all matters while the rest of us could enjoy ourselves and not fret. He is very personable, knowledgeable, and above all makes his job organizing everything seem effortless. We highly recommend Rock and the agency itself to anyone who asks!
Dee's has helped us plan the best destination Christmas vacation for the past two years. We already booked 2018's trip. They will work with you to get the best experience for the best price. Airline times are great also! I highly recommend my friends and family to use Dee's!
I was stressing out about choosing the right location and resort for our honeymoon but Rock put my worries to rest when he told me about the perfect resort in Mexico. He made it more than easy to book and we loved the resort we stayed at. Will definitely recommend to anyone!
This it the second time I've used Rock. He just booked my All Inclusive Punta Cana vacation. Any agent can give you a price but how many agents hit you back, later in the day, to tell you they have a better price? Rock will work hard for you to get the best deal.
Loved working with Rock!! He answered all our questions and made it easy for us to pick our mid winter vaca!!!
They were helpful and got us an amazing deal. He kept me up to date on everything and was very nice. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get away to a nice resort. Great service
Awesome guy to work with very quick to get back with you with answers. Work out of town a lot very accommodating with making arrangements for payment
I was extremely satisfied with Dee Agency. Rock, has proven to be very courteous and helpful from the very beginning, trying to organize our Girls Trip to Mexico. My friends and I had a wonderful time at Iberostar Paraiso Beach. Highly recommend it!!! It was an unforgettable experience! If you need to plan a trip talk to Rock!
Rock was very helpful with booking our honeymoon vacation,from the part of leaving the u.s. to arriving in Mexico clean up to the travles home. Dee's worked with us from the very beginning to schedule an appointment to discuss a trip. Not to mention they took the time to help up find the right destination that was perfect for me and my bride. The resort we choose thru dee's was amazing. Hands down would go thru dee's again and look forward to booking more trips in the future
Rock is very informative on various trip planning details. He is patient and concerned about finding and making your trip the best it can be. Dee's also gets you the best prices for vacations, we recommend anyone to check Dee's Travel Agency out and have fun planning your trip with Rock a really nice guy.
We have been wanting to book a Disney cruise for years. We chose Dee's travel bc our first interaction (1-2 years ago)was comfortable with Rock. He was sooo patient, honest and reliable. We finally booked and are very excited. He did all the work and all we need to do is show up, bring our passports and.... kids!!!!! Lastly, he is always easy to get ahold of..... and friendly. Best customer service then I had in years. Thanks!!!!!
As always, Roc from Dee's Travel Agency has taken care of us with the biggest "bang for our bucks"!!! This last vacation has been the best, by far!!! See you soon for another trip, thanks Roc.
Rock was fantastic. He coordinated a company trip for us. Despite some things going wrong at the resort end, Rock was committed to getting involved and making it all right in the end. You can always count on him answering his phone. He's the best.
Rock was extremely helpful and professional in booking our trip to Jamaica. We definitely will use Rock and Dee's Travel Agency to book our next trip.
We used Dee's for an all inclusive trip to Jamaica. From the transport from the airport in Jamaica to the experience at the resort. Top notch all the way. I already have and will continue to recommend Dee's to everyone.
Rock was great he saved us a lot of money on our trip and flight to Negril Jamacia and made it so easy, I just had to speak to him on the phone and he found exactly what we wanted for our honeymoon. Thanks Rock at Dee's Travel.
I was part of the group of 14 that recently went to Jamaica. It was awesome! Rock and our group leader worked very hard to find us a really good deal on the price. The resort was fabulous! He even recommended a trusted tour guide to take us to local spots.
Rock comes highly recommended by my parents. He was very responsive in getting us multiple quotes for places that we requested, in addition to other resorts that he found for us. He is easy to work with and very friendly. We leave in two months (tomorrow) for our trip and are very excited!
Rock was wonderful to work with. He was very timely in his response time and extremely helpful. I gave him a pretty tight budget to work with for a 6 person family vacation and he found a wonderful place that was even cheaper than the budgeted price. Thank you again Rock!!
Worked with Rock to book my honeymoon. Excellent service, easy to reach, we spoke mostly on facebook chat and on the phone.Rock got me a great price at the resort we wanted in Punta Cana at a rate better than what you can find online. Will update my review after the trip if necessary, but I'm not expecting any issues.
Dee's Travel Agency is the agency to use for all of your travel plans. We met Rock while on vacation in Mexico, last year. Rock is knowledgeable, reliable, efficient and always available to assist you with your planning. We just returned from the Dominican Republic with a group of 14. Our travel was smooth from door to door. Rock also booked an excellent trip for us to Vegas, earlier this year. We will not use anyone for making our travel arrangements as long as Dee's Travel Agency is in business. Rock, Rocks....Don't look anywhere else....
Rock was excellent and very patient with me ..he had us booked and done in no time i would definitely recommend them to do all your travel needs i will be using them again in the future
Rock is such a wonderful travel agent to work with! Answers all your questions and responds as quickly as possible! Would definitely recommend Dee's travel agency to anyone.
Dee's Travel Agency is very helpful. This is the second trip I booked with them. My first trip to Mexico was amazing and I couldn't wait to book another. We are headed to Punta Cana in the fall this year over Thanksgiving break. I have two children ages 13 and 20 and Dee's Travel found the perfect resort to meet the interest of everyone in my family. They were able to answer all of my questions and help me with every detail of the trip. I can't wait for our trip.
Our family couldn't have had a better experience using Dee's Travel Agency. We took our first official family trip to Disney World. Dee's Travel was helpful with everything from start to finish! Everything was perfect, we stayed in a great hotel, had a wonderful vacation package, all at a great cost! I can't wait to book our next vacation with them!
High quality service
Dee's Travel Agency has been a pleasure to work with. Through all of this COVID-19 stuff, they have been working super hard to make our trip happen. When our flight was canceled, Rock did everything he could to get our trip rescheduled & even went above & beyond to switch us to a 5 star resort with an amazing package. We are looking forward to our upcoming trip next week & are so grateful to have chosen Dee's Travel Agency to help us plan our honeymoon. They are very friendly, caring & professional. I would recommend their agency to anyone looking to book a trip!

Our trip was flawless. Rock connected us with Danny, and that is the way to travel. Danny provides the transfer from the airport to the resort - a perfect way to start and end the vacation.

I greatly appreciate all the knowledge and speedy responses as well as the patience for dealing with a first time traveler! Thanks for making our island dream a reality...

I can't say enough about this travel agency. Thus far, I have booked through them twice. I was all set to go on one trip and I had a family emergency. Rock took care of EVERYTHING. He was gracious, courteous, and helped put my mind at ease. We are traveling to Mexico in May, and again, he found the best deal for an all inclusive. I really tried to beat his deal, but when all is said and done, this agency got my business and will continue to do so.
Exceptional service

Rock was absolutely great and I will definitely be recommending this him an this agency to anyone I know planning vacation!
Very professional, extremely knowledgeable and easy to work with.

If your looking for an honest, responsive, patient and knowledgable travel agency, Dee's Travel Agency is the way to go.
Italian Sightseeing
I was looking for a trip to Italy for my daughter and I and Dee's made it a reality. Since there are so many amazing sites to see in Italy, I was overwhelmed with my choices. Dee's Travel Agency recommended a tour that fit my budget. We received all of the required paperwork in a timely fashion...always with follow up emails to insure our understanding. They made our Italian vacation become a dream.
I called Dee's Travel Agency on a Monday morning at 10. Just a feeler call regarding All-Inclusive to Mexico or Dominican Republic for my wife and me. By the time the call ended, I felt comfortable enough to give Rock the go-ahead to start his research. Long story short, by the next day, we had a vacation to Cancun picked out and booked! Rock was awesome as far as his knowledge and research to all the different resorts.We're leaving in Jan 2019 and we couldn't be more excited! I we highly recommend Rock and Dee's Travel Agency for any type of vacation you may be planning. We'll give a follow-up once we return, Thanks again Rock and Dee for all the work in such a short time!

From beginning the journey, keeping in touch during the visit and following up after, Rock is so helpful. Transitions from airport to and from resort were flawless. There were some problems at the resort and Rock was available to help whenever we called. Rock is friendly, professional and willing to search for the perfect vacation for you. Can't wait for out next adventure !

Working with Rock was the best I have ever had with a travel agent!!! The attention to detail and making sure I got everything I needed.
Great service and very helpful
We booked a trip to the Dominican Republic and picked a resort that looked like exactly what we wanted. Upon arriving at our resort we had a few small issues that added together made us want to switch resorts. We contacted Dee's and within a few hours we had new reservations at a different resort, no hassle and a very easy switch. Dee's was very prompt on getting back to us and willing to go out of the way to make sure we were happy, and always followed up with us to make sure everything was ok. Highly recommend Dee's Travel Agency!
Friendly and Knowledgeable Service
Dee's Travel was recommended by friends of ours, and we would recommend this agency to others. Rock helped us plan a honeymoon/vacation to Jamaica where we enjoyed stunningly beautiful beaches. He was friendly, prompt in his responses and paperwork and very knowledgeable. He also helped us stay within our budget. Thank you, Rock!
Very Professional
Planning to use my newly acquired "Passport" at age 52 for a trip with my daughters. We were not sure where we wanted to travel, so I had many questions to throw at Deana and Rock and they took the time to answer each and every one of them not only in a timely fashion but based on first-hand account, being the explorers they are. While my daughters have been on island vacations before, they have never done a cruise so that is what we decided on. With God's Grace, we will be leaving on December 30, 2018 on a 7-day cruise to the Bahamas with a balcony view and stops in Princess Cays, Nassau and Freeport. Thank you Dee's Travel for your guidance and recommendations. Karen
Professional and Friendly
I highly recommend Dee's Travel Agency! I go my cruise booked quickly and at the best rate around!! I will definitely use them for future trips!

High quality service, provided emails with info , has alwaysbeen there if needed even if you are in the carribean they are always a phone call away.
Awsome service, friendly, best prices around, give them a call first !!!
Rock helped my fiancé and I plan our honeymoon. We are not big travelers and don't have a lot of experience, especially with international travel. Rock was great with getting us some options within our budget. He has and continues to be extremely available to us. You can call, text, or e-mail anytime for questions and I always get a response back extremely quickly. He's been a lot of help and we're looking forward to our honeymoon in a few months!
Quick, responsive, answers ALL questions asked
I was referred here by a friend and literally booked within two days! Very easy, very good at returning emails, prompt and informative. Knowledgeable and courteous.
Dee's Travel Agency helped me to orchestrate a trip for 18 of my husband's employees. This is no small feat, and Rock was helpful and knowledgeable every step of the way. He was patient with my many questions. I would highly recommend using their services!
Awesome service
Dee's travel did a outstanding job In coordinating our company trip. They went above and beyond our expectations. We will definitely be using them again!
Dee's Travel Agency was very cooperative,thorough, and knowledge of our destination spot was extremely helpful to us!
Costa Rica - Honeymoon
Rock helped us plan our honeymoon adventure. We chose Costa Rica unfortunately it fell during their rainy season (traveled in October) this was beautiful for all the luscious green but we didn't have any sun. Locals recommend traveling in November for the sun and luscious greenery. The resort Rui Gunacastle was beautiful, with friendly staff. Be warned if you are traveling looking for sandy white beaches and crystal clear aqua waters Costa Rica is not the location for this. This location is more for the views of the jungle and tours of volcanos. The volcanic ash make the beaches black and the waters didn't have that aqua blue color. We completely enjoyed ourselves. Food was great, rooms nice, shows fun, casino staff friendly. Overall great honeymoon - Thanks Rock for helping plan it.
Quick and responsive

Jamaica Trip
I was part of the group of 14 that recently went to Jamaica. It was awesome! Rock and our group leader worked very hard to find us a really good deal on the price. The resort was fabulous! He even recommended a trusted tour guide to take us to local spots.
This was the first travel agency I had ever used. I had no clue what I was doing when making travel arrangements. They we very helpful and friendly. I had millions of questions and they were very patient and answered all of them for me. They made me feel very comfortable with my choices.

Excellent Vacations at Affordable Prices
Dee's Travel Agency is the agency to use for all of your travel plans. We met Rock while on vacation in Mexico, last year. Rock is knowledgeable, reliable, efficient and always available to assist you with your planning. We just returned from the Dominican Republic with a group of 14. Our travel was smooth from door to door. Rock also booked an excellent trip for us to Vegas, earlier this year. We will not use anyone for making our travel arrangements as long as Dee's Travel Agency is in business. Rock, Rocks....Don't look anywhere else....
Dee's comes through again!
This is the 2nd trip Rock scheduled for us. The 1st one was so easy. He took care of everything. We had a wonderful cruise to the Bahamas!! This time he booked a trip to Cozumel Mexico. He handled everything over the phone like the 1st time. He came to our house to discuss things & answer any questions we had. He's exceptional, professional & very down to earth. Always a pleasure talking to him. He makes scheduling a vacation effortless. The only thing for us to do is enjoy!!! Thank you so much Rock. I'm sure we'll have a great time!
This will be our first time traveling out of the country, Dee's Travel Agency has been a huge help! Rock made the process very easy and enjoyable.

Very good service through Dee's Travel
Rock was very pleasant to work with. I was offered this trip through a friend and coordinated my reservation with theirs so all who were going would be near each other. There is 3 adults in my party and everything was well done to accommodate us. I would definitely use this agency again.
Wonderful Travel Agency
This was the first year that I have planned my own trip with a group of people and going through Rock myself rather than someone else doing all the work, he was awesome to work with. Any problem or question we had we got an answer within the hour. whether it was a question on prices or a question on our reservations he had the answer to it all within timely manner! Our trip was booked within days with the price we wanted and dates we wanted. I was referred to him through family and I would refer him to anyone looking to travel!
Great travel agent
I am an inexperienced traveler and Rock was very good in all aspects -- from basic questions to providing accommodations options - on my trip for 6 people...with many different opinions. He was knowledgeable about various islands and resorts on each. He was proactive in the planning phase and had great patience throughout the process. I have confidence he will stand behind his information should there be any issues.
Dee's travel agency
I would highly recommend Dee's travel agency. Any questions that i had were answered in a timely manner. Rock was great this my first trip that i ever booked, any trips for here on out i would gladly use their services.
Fast response, knowledgeable and very friendly service.
Responded very quickly to our last minute decision to get away, and made it very easy and pleasant for us to book our anniversary vacation. Would and will recommend using them for help with where and also booking vacations. Will continue using Dee's Travel for all of our annual anniversary vacations.
Great Find
I stumbled onto Dee's Travel agency on FB and was pleasantly surprised by the transaction. Rocks communication was quick & efficient and once he knew what my group was looking for - he delivered a property at a price that pleased everybody. I found Rock, picked a resort & booked within 24 hours ......last years agent took weeks to deliver disappointing results. Looks like we have found our new travel agent ~
This is the second time I booked an all inclusive with Rock. He gets back to us right away and begins searching for the vacation that fits our families needs. He gives you a lot of options to choose from and has knowledge on different resorts. I would highly recommend using Dee's Travel Agent!
Awesome service
I contacted This requesting his help to plan my honeymoon. This will be the first time myself or my fiancé have traveled outside the country. He Helped me find the perfect resort at a perfect price and gave me pointers on the way. Anytime I had a question he answered a very promptly helped me find the perfect resort at a perfect price and gave me pointers on the way. Anytime I had a question he answered a very promptly! I am very satisfied with my decision to book with this agency

High Quality Service
Rock has always took great care of me in planning my vacations. They have always had the best deals with the most bang for your buck!
Patient & Thorough! Rock WILL get you the best deal!
After a total disappointment with a trip that was canceled last year, Rock worked hard to find us a comparable trip this year. His patience with us deserves a mention. He went above and beyond. We will continue to book with Dee's Travel!!!
Excellent customer service
Dee's made everything simple! Our vacation was amazing! We started planning our next trip with Dee's as soon as we returned!
Great Experience
Rock was great in helping me book our honeymoon to Mexico. I had talked to a few other agents previously but none were as nice or as informative as Rock. He already had various options ready as soon as I arrived for our appointment. He was also straight forward of pros and cons to different locations so that I was able to make the best decision for us. We can't wait to go on our trip!
Works hard for the best deal
Rock just booked my All Inclusive Mexican vacation. Everyone is going to give you a price but how many agents hit you back, later in the day, to tell you they have a better price? Rock will work hard for you to get the best deal.
Outstanding Service From Dee's Travel agency.
I have friends who have used Dee's Travel agency in the past. They recommended that I try Dee's Travel Service. I am 65 years old and this is the first time I have used a travel agent. I am so glad that I used Dee's to plan our trip to Riu Rebublica. They made everything so easy. They took care of all the details and are always available to answer any question.
Very professional and exceeds expectations
I was very pleased with the quick and efficient scheduling of our vacation! It was a pleasure working with you! Thank you for the perfect vacation!
Professional Service
This is my first time using Dee's Travel Agency and so far I have been very impressed with the professional and friendly manner in which they conduct business. I love how they make themselves available and promptly returns calls or respond to any questions you may have. I will definitely be recommending Dee's Travel Agency to all my family and friends.
The extra mile...
Rocky at Dee's travel did such a great job during my last vacation, I used him again to book a party of 8 to Jamaica. Within four hours we were booked, and looking forward to our vacation! I wanted it all... Low price, great resort, no hassle... Rocky was able to provide us with everything we needed, and was never more than a text or call away to answer my many questions!
Professional agency - dream vacation
Rock helped me with booking a family vacation. He helped pick an incredible location. The resort was amazing from food, room, pools, beaches, activities. We wished we could've stayed longer. Thanks - Rock for helping create memories of a lifetime.
Great service thus far!
Recently, I emailed Dee's Travel Agency about my upcoming 30th wedding anniversary. I shared our max budget and the date we wanted to travel. Rock was able to find us an excellent all-inclusive package in Montego Bay, Jamaica and stay well-within our budget. Thus far, their service has be excellent. I will report back again once we actually complete the trip in March 2017.
Great Agent
Rock booked our honeymoon trip for us and it could not have been a better place! We had some issues with some of our package once we arrived but Rock was on top of it and got everything sorted out quickly! I would recommend him for future travels as he is very polite, courteous, and prompt in getting you answers. 5 star agent for sure!
Rock made booking my trip fast and easy, his prices we're great much cheaper than Apple or cheap Caribbean, I also love the fact that we were able to text message back and forth he was always quick with a response to my many questions.I will definitely be using Dee's travel again and I highly recommend them to anyone looking to travel within the states or abroad.

Amazing travel agent!
From the minute we contacted rock I could tell he was different. He cared so much about getting us the right resort and in our budget! We just got back from RIU Republica in the Dominican Republic! It was breath taking and rock spent the time to make sure we had the right flight setup and we knew everything before leaving! He even checked in with us once we got there to ensure everything was correct. Wouldn't book with anyone else now because rock was so amazing.

We will definitely be back to book again.Plus we high recommend them for your next vacation.
Professional, Flexible and very Considerate
We only changed plans at least five times! It did not matter, they were willing to make all the necessary adjustments to our booking in order to ensure that we got just what we were looking for. They really went the extra mile and communicated with us every step of the way. We really appreciate the level of service we received and will do business with them again.
Professional, reliable and helpful
Rock was amazing, he provided the best service! I never went through a travel agency before and this was a great experience. I will defiantly recommend Dee's!! Thank you again

Fast & Friendly service provided by Rock
I was referred to Rock by a coworker and I must say the service was fantastic. Rock was able to find a cruise within my dates, budget and distance I was looking to find within minutes.

I found rock on google, this was the first time I have ever used a travel agency. Rock booked us oir honeymoon and we had a issue with coming up the rest of thr money and had to cancel. Rock was very friendly and expressed that he was upset we lost out on the money we put down. Just today I reached out to rebook and pay in full. In a matter of 30 minutes rock booked us and we are all set. He has been so helpful from the time we reached out. He really cares about his customers and I recommend using him to book anything. Thank you so much rock!!

Cabo vacation was exactly what we requested. Rock was quick to respond to emails throughout the process and was very reasonably priced. We had a great time. We thank you again, Dee's Travel!!
Everything that my whole family did a great week at Disney!
Rock booked a wonderful family vacation to Disney World. We had 12 people in our party and did not have any problems! Flight went great, hotel rooms were right next to each other, and no issues with park tickets. He made our trip easy and carefree. Rock also gave the kids each a $25 Disney gift card. The kids loved to shop with it. Definitely will be booking our next trip with Dees travel agency!
Quick and painless.
I don't travel a lot. Rock knew exactly what I wanted and booked our trip to Disney without any problems. Next time I'm planning a trip I'm definitely using Dee's Travel Agency again!
THANK YOU for your quick reply. Because of your attention to customer service and immediate communication, even on a weekend, I was able to get on the same flight and resort with my family! thank you : )
Excellent Service
My wife and I recently booked an all-inclusive vacation to Jamaica through Dee's Travel. A few weeks later we decided to extend the trip and make a significant change regarding the resort. Rock happily made all the changes and saved us several hundred dollars in penalties. He's very prompt and efficient and great to work with. Thanks Rock!!
Prompt and exactly what I was looking for.
I contacted Dee's Travel Agency through the website. I gave a small note about what I was looking for and within the hour I had not only a response but a quote for the exact trip I was looking for! A quick phone call and some info and I am booked and ready to go. Easiest trip planning ever! I highly recommend you give them a call and make your trip better than what those "lowest price websites" will find for you and in my case better priced than those as well.
When I spoke with Dee's Travel Agency they were very knowledgeable and experienced. I would recommend them to anyone. With questions I had and they did not know they found out and got back to me very quickly.
Excellent Service
The service we received from this company was was excellent We travel every year abroad,and we dealt with many Travel agencies Dee's Travel went above and beyond to meet our needs, we will pass their name on to other travelers. They said we will beat any quotes you get !!, and they did by hundreds of dollars. They checked everyday for a better rate , and we got the cheapest rate that we ever paid . They are very Professional, and Personable. We will return to this company and use them for years to come
Highly Recommended!!!
Very detailed, I told Rock what I needed and he put together an all inclusive package that was perfect for my family.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Dee's Travel Agency. I received prompt feedback and he was always available to answer all questions/concerns. I would highly recommend him for any travel (domestic or international).
Quick turn around
My wife & I booked our first cruise through Dee's Travel Agency. Rock got everything in place. Flight, cruise & transfer. Everything was effortless on our part! Within days, Rock was alerted that the ship we were to sail on would not be ready in time due to refurbishing. He immediately contacted me. We had a certain time frame in which to take our vacation. The very next day everything was completed. New cruise, new flight & transfer. Rock is a very efficient & professional travel agent. He does whatever it takes to make you happy. The only thing we have to do is pack! Thank you so much for your effort & dedication. We will never go to anyone else for booking a vacation. Very, very pleased.
Rock got us everything we asked for
We had recently gotten back from our first cruse and decided to book our second one through a travel agent and the experience was great. A quick phone call to get things started, a couple of emails back and forth and we were all set. Now is the hard part, waiting to set sail again.
Great Travel Agent
Rock was referred to us by one of my employees, who used him to book their honeymoon and was glad I used him. Rock was very professional, friendly and efficient with booking a vacation cruise for me and my husband to Alaska for August. He found the best prices for cruise ship, airfare and hotel. I would recommend to anyone who needs a travel agent.
Our Booking Was a Piece of Cake!
Dee's travel agency was very helpful and informative! They helped us around the clock to get the best prices and flight times available for our first family Christmas vacation getaway!!!
Great experience
Very responsive and helpful. Answered all my questions and got me the info i requested very quickly. Made the experience hassle free. My wife and I will definitely use Dee's again
Convenient and professional.
This is our first cruise so we decided we should seek the help of a travel agent. Dee's Travel Agency came with perfect reviews. All of our travel reservations have been made either online or by phone which is very convent for me since I work long hours. Rock found the perfect vacation within the time frame we have. We have yet to meet but will do so to tie up last minute details. Thank you so much for a hassle free and professional service. Looking forward to meeting in person. We will definatly recommend Dee's to all of our friends.
family vacation planned for Punta Cana
Dee's Travel Agency is very helpful. This is the second trip I booked with them. My first trip to Mexico was amazing and I couldn't wait to book another. We are headed to Punta Cana in the fall this year over Thanksgiving break. I have two children ages 13 and 20 and Dee's Travel found the perfect resort to meet the interest of everyone in my family. They were able to answer all of my questions and help me with every detail of the trip. I can't wait for our trip.
Wonderful experience !
Have a great experience with this travel agency.. He was super patient and helpful when coordinating three families for our Disney trip! Look forward to using his services in the future!
Great as a destination wedding agency
I had to go through Dee's Travel Agency for a destination wedding in Mexico, and the service was great! Rock helped find me the best deal for airfare and hotel accommodations. I had many questions, and Rock was more than happy to respond via text or email.
Great service
I was very pleased with the deal we received for our cruise. Rock was very helpful and willing to answer all my questions. I would defiantly use their service again, and recommend them to friends and family
Dee's Travel Agency will always be my choice :}
We have never used a travel agency and now will start using Dee's. We always book ourselves , and it is always a long painful process . Rock at Dee's was EXTREMELY helpful, he literally took all the work out of our hands . He quickly answered any questions. We booked 4 of us a trip to Punta Cana Chic Resort it was fantastic . He saved us money, gave us tons of helpful tips, and took care of everything. Do yourself a favor for your next vacation, let Rock handle it. Rock thanks again for making things so easy:}
Excellent service
Rock helped us book a trip to the DR and was very helpful throughout the whole process. He was recommended from a family member and I will continue to recommend him to others as well.
I would like to say thank you for all your hard work. You helped us with our trip and we are excited to go on the trip. From Judy and Robert Brown!
A Great Travel Agency
I had a great time looking for an all inclusive at Dee's Travel Agency. Rock was polite and informative with the many questions I bombarded him with, seeing this will be my first all inclusive trip. After viewing numerous destinations Rock advised me that Cancun, Mexico had a lot to offer us because we want to explore and see variety of scenery. So thank you Rock for making this happen.
What a treat discovering Dee's Travel Agency. We booked a trip through Rock to the Dominican Republic which we've taken many times before but Rock found us the trip cheaper than ever before. We look forward to using Dee's again next year. I recommend them to all.
Excellent service, professional, and friendly!
My fiance and I used Dee's Travel Agency to book our destination wedding in the Bahamas. Rock was able to get us an excellent deal, along with some extra perks. He handled booking our guests from other parts of the country, even those that decided to stay at other resorts. He was also able to help a guest that decided to book at the last minute, even though it was after the resort's deadline. He always addressed our questions and concerns in a timely manner. We will definitely use Dee's Travel Agency to book future vacations.
Very friendly, super easy and best price around
My fiancé and I are getting married in May, and we wanted to look for honeymoon ideas. I never worked with a travel agent before so I was a little worried until I spoke with rock. He made sure he found the best price and he also made sure he told us everything about the resorts so we could make the best decision possible. I would definitely recommend this travel agency!
Excellent Service
Rock was very helpful , always polite and professional, i have already book our next vacation with Rock and look forward to booking future vacations with him.
Personal, responsive, knowledgable and friendly!
Met Rock and his family on a trip; kept in communication with them via email and they always sent us what trips they suggested. Just booked an all inclusive through Dee's and Rock answered all our questions and made all our arrangements. Having never visited an all inclusive, we are confident that Dee's recommendation will leave us with a wonderful experience! Sue and Ed
Knowledgeable and timely
We have relied on Dee's for our trips to Jamaica and Punta Cana and our experience has been both friendly and professional. Rock has the answer to any question that may arise and he always keeps in contact leading up to the travel dates. Our friends that we travel with have all mentioned how smoothly the travel and resort arrangements just fall into place. We highly recommend Rock and Dee's Travel!
Dee's Travel... They beat internet prices!
I usually travel 2-3 times per year to the caribbean. Rock at Dee's Travel met all of my needs in a timely and professional manner. When I compared online prices, Dee's was hundreds lower than all of those sites offering low rates! I saved hundreds on my trip to Jamaica by using Dee's!! I would highly suggest anyone planning a vacation talks to Rock before booking elsewhere. He will save you money!!
Would Recommend!
We booked our first trip with Dee's Travel Agency (Rock) in 2013 when we were planning our honeymoon to Jamaica. We had a great trip, so when we wanted to go on another trip he was the first person I called. He found us an all inclusive resort within our budget for the amount of time we wanted. Thanks! And you will definitely have our business again.
Excellent Service
Rock helped my family so much to find us a fabulous rate for a all-inclusive in Punta Cana. He meet all my needs for our trip. We are all so excited to go. Thanks so much Dee's Travel.

Our family couldn't have had a better experience using Dee's Travel Agency. We took our first official family trip to Disney World. Dee's Travel was helpful with everything from start to finish! Everything was perfect, we stayed in a great hotel, had a wonderful vacation package, all at a great cost! I can't wait to book our next vacation with them!
Very professional and Great Customer Service
Dees Travel is by far my favorite agency to book vacations through. They actually take the time to check out the resorts for you to make sure they are compatible with your lifestyle as well as taking the time to shop other resorts to make sure your getting the best price possible! Highly recommend using them for your future vacation planning!
Rock was awesome! We had a personal issue arise and he was able to come up with a solution and it was quick and efficient. Def recommend him.

I look forward to speaking to Rock about many more future trips.
Just a another great job in planning our family vacation
Well Rock at Dees travel agency did it again for our all-inclusive family vacation in 2016 all we needed to do is tell him were we wanted to vacation and that was Mexico and Rock found us a great deal to the Iberostar Quetzal plus he made sure we knew everything when traveling to Mexico that we needed to know. I do highly recommend Dees travel agency to my friends and anyone looking for a agency that works for you. Thanks John A
Rock found us a great deal on an all inclusive resort in Punta Cana. He made sure we were informed on everything we needed to know.
top notch customer service
I've been completely impressed with the customer service i have received. Rock has been available whenever i needed a question answered. Whether via phone, text, email or Facebook he's always there for information, advice and helpful tips. Extremely knowledgeable and professional. I'll be booking all future vacations with Rock at Dees travel Brad n Renée Snyder
Excellent to the 3rd Power!!!
From identifying the perfect honeymoon vaca to finding the best deals, Dee's is the "One-Stop" shop we were glad we found. We have requested their services two times so far... with many more to come!!! I've been recommending them ever since our first time...
Awesome travel agency
Rock had planned our family all-inclusive vacation to Punta Cana being we are new at international travel and had no idea on where to travel so we left it up to Rock and man he did a awesome job the Memorial Splash in Punta Cana was great we all loved it I would highly recommend Rock and Dee's Travel Agency to anyone. We will be back next year. Thanks Deanna
Our agent "Rock" has a well deserved name because our vacation rocked!! He was very flexible and understanding with our hectic schedule and came to our home to help make it even easier on us. We had a miscommunication between our kiosk guy and driver so our ride was extra scenic since we got to see another part of the island we wouldn't have otherwise seen. The resort was beautiful and just the place for us and what we were looking for. We wanted to relax, unwind, and not dodge children. RIU was very low key. The beach was well taken care of, the pool bar staff amazingly funny and engaging. The shows sounded amazing and the food. Oh my, the food. We got your traditional American fare and salad at every meal, even breakfast, as well as the traditional Dominican dishes which I am on love with. We will definitely be going back to him for another vacation in the future. If you're smart, you'll do the same!!
Great customer service
We were uncertain of where to go for a Carribean vacation. Rock sent us lots of places and Islands to choose from. Once we were all in agreement with which Island we wanted to go to Rock quickly booked us at a very good rate. I would recommend using Dee's Travel Agency for your next vacation.
Wonderful and STRESS-FREE experience!
Could not have asked for a better vacation planned with Dee's Travel Agent. My mother planned it as my surprise high school graduation gift, and EVERYTHING was spectacular. They were very patient while working with my (worrisome) mother, and executed everything to a "T." Not once did my mother or I feel uncomfortable with the planning process, and the trip itself was spectacular! Everything went as planned, and I certainly look forward to planning another trip through them again.
DeJesus Family
I have used Dee's Travel Agency twice now, and I have had a amazing experience both times. The Agency is very efficient and takes all your needs into consideration when booking your trip. I truly appreciate the level of professionalism he provided me and my new husband Rafael. He met all of our expectations and our accommodations which made our vacation that much more memorable. I would and have recommended their travel services to my friends and family! We will be planning another vacation next year (2016) and we will be calling Dee's travel agency of course. Please call Dee's travel agency for your next vacation they are the best!!!
Dominican Republic all inclusive vacation
When my wife and I coated Dee's Travel to check on a family vacation to the Dominican Republic we had no idea how professional they would be. But once we gave them all of our information about what we wanted to do and when we wanted to go on our trip we essentially put the ball in their court and boy oh boy did they take the ball and run with it. We ended up getting a fun filled vacation at Splash Resort in the Dominican Republic that was great for our children because the waterpark was 50 ft from are room. But all in all from the non stop flight to the transfers from the airport, and the accommodations, Dee's Travel did a wonderful job providing us with an affordable vacation experience that will be etched in our memories for a lifetime, Thanks Dee's Travel
Smith family
Dees travel agency is very personal and helpful Rocky made the trip prep easy. I highly recommend him
Awesome Service
We booked our first vacation for a June 2015 Carnival cruise. Dee's travel agency helped us every step of the way. They were consistent and beyond helpful. They did everything they could to ensure that our trip was a success and they've maintained a relationship with us since then. If you're looking for a travel agency that you can trust, this is the way to go.
Awesome service!
First time doing a vacation internationally and Dee was amazing. Was always there to help and fulfilled all my requests. If I had any questions or needed any documentation, he was there to help at all times of the day. I would definitely recommend to all. My travel documents provided had specific instructions and booking the trip was so easy. Dee worked with me to meet all my needs for a perfect honeymoon vacation!
Super Helpful
I have never traveled before and was not sure which company to use to help me. I chose Dee's Travel agency and I am happy I did. I had explained what I was looking for to Rock and he explained all of my options and also told me what to expect from his personal experience. I was traveling to Las Vegas with my wife on our honeymoon and thanks to Rock it was perfect. I am so happy that I had Rock help me and also so happy to meet Rock. He is a great person and very helpful. Thank you. I wrote this review again because my computer kept auto correcting Rock's name to Brock. Hope this clarifies that. Thanks Again Rock and I wish you and your family the Best. Sincerely, Joe Schaufele

He saved me money at a great resort and made the process stress-free We highly recommend booking your vacation with Dee's Travel Agency if you are wanting a agency that cares about you and your vacation planning.
Rock was great to work with. He gave many options with great pricing. Very pleased with Dee's Agency
Cruise June 2015
Dee's Travel Agency was absolutely amazing. My family and I went on a cruise to celebrate me turning 25, as well as graduating from college all within a couple of weeks. we went with a group of 16 and Dee's Travel Agency made the entire booking process a breeze for our large group. Great Agency!!!
Dee's Travel did a wonderful job in planning our vacation. We gave them a few ideas and they did the research and came up with several options. We will use their services again when we need to get away. Wishing them the very best! M Chris Williams
Professional, friendly and hard working
Rock is planning our Disney vacation as a surprise for my daughter and he has done an amazing job planning our trip so that it is perfect. I have made many changes and he accommodated all my requests. Would highly recommend Dee's for all your travel needs.
I Highly Recommend Dee's Travel Agency
This travel agency was very personal and helpful in the decision-making process. I have never planned a trip like this before, so they just laid out all the options after asking plenty of questions and we came to an agreement that had more value than what I was expecting. We even got a room upgrade for not a big difference of money! I would definitely use this travel agency again in a heartbeat for our next endeavor. John Arnold

Fresh off of her court hearing on Friday, Lindsay Lohan is already back in front of the cameras.
The actress, who was sentenced on Friday to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service for a probation violation, paid a visit to the set of "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Monday, Access Hollywood has learned.

According to a source, Lindsay pre-taped an interview with Jay, which will air on the NBC late night program on Tuesday night.
No other details of her appearance were immediately available on Monday afternoon.

However, Linsday does appear to have a connection to the show — her attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, is married to Dorian Holley, who is the lead vocalist for the show's house band, led by Rickey Minor.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Lindsay spent most of the day on Friday in court for a preliminary hearing in her felony grand theft case, in which a Los Angeles-area jewelry store, Kamofie & Co., claimed the actress stole a necklace worth $2,500.
During the hearing, Judge Stephanie Sautner sentenced the actress after viewing surveillance video from the store the day Lindsay allegedly took the necklace, ruling it constituted a violation of her probation.

Lindsay spent approximately five hours in custody before posting $75,000 bail and being released under the terms of a "work release" program.
She was expected to begin her community service on Monday at a women's shelter in downtown Los Angeles.

By now, you've probably seen the Alicia Silverstone pre-mastication video [1]. It's totally safe for work (maybe not for lunch, but your mileage may vary), but some viewers will find it a bit unsettling: Silverstone feeds her baby pre-chewed food directly from her mouth, just like a bird. I found it pretty fascinating and not at all upsetting. Before you recoil in disgust and/or horror, think about how people weaned babies before Magic Bullets, Vitamixes, Gerber baby food, and even mortar and pestles hit the scene. That's right – they chewed their food for them. In a paper entitled "Premastication: the second arm of infant and young child feeding for health and survival," Gretel Pelto speculates that pre-mastication was likely common practice among pre-agricultural groups and confirms that it continues today across every continent (PDF [2]).
As to why this practice arose in humans but not other mammals, it's the neoteny [3]. Humans are born completely helpless, and remain so for several years (some would suggest "decades"). Newborn babies have no teeth and don't even develop a decent set until about a year or later. This isn't an issue at first, since they have access to plenty of delicious, nutritious breastmilk that goes down smooth. But because breastmilk is fairly low in iron [4] (albeit a highly bioavailable form designed specially for infants), once kids run out of their pregnancy iron [5] stores, they need a more reliable source of the mineral in addition to the milk [6]. Nowadays, kids get iron-fortified rice [7] cereal or baby vitamins or something silly like that, but before all that stuff, kids needed to eat iron-rich foods when the iron supply dwindled. What's simpler and more effective for a hard-working hunter-gatherer who needs to feed her child some adult, iron-rich food – chopping up and crushing a strip of venison liver [8] on a wooden plank with stone knives, or chewing it up and transferring it directly to the kid's waiting mouth?
Okay, so there's historical and evolutionary precedent for it, but is there any reason to chew your kid's food today rather than whip out the food processor? Are there any extra upsides?
Free Mechanical Digestion
Since babies are rather limited in the tooth department, they can't chew their food effectively, which is how most animals – humans included – mechanically digest their food. That's why "baby food" is pureed; it's a more socially acceptable (and financially lucrative) way of pre-chewing their food for them. And since the greater surface area of mechanically digested food bits exposes more of them to enzymatic action, pre-chewed food is more easily digested by babies (and adults).
Chewing your kid's food is definitely cheaper than buying baby food, and it's more time-efficient than making it in a blender or food processor.
Oral Enzymatic Pre-Digestion
Infants are born equipped with the enzymatic machinery to handle the simple sugars [9], animal fats [10], and animal protein in breast milk. They are not ready to digest a whole lot of other things, particularly dietary starch (which is often "baby's first food" regardless). In humans who have it, salivary amylase predigests starch during the chewing process, initiating the conversion of starch into more easily assimilable carbohydrate derivatives like maltose (a disaccharide of two glucose units) and dextrin (a polysaccharide). Infants don't come equipped with much salivary amylase right out of the box, so when a parent who wields the full array of salivary enzymes pre-masticates their food, the infant digests the food better. To get an idea of what kind of enzymatic digestion this pre-mastication is providing, let's check the numbers:
In adults, salivary amylase (which predigests starch) is present in concentrations of 70-300 U/ml. Infants are born with "negligible" amounts, attain "appreciable levels" by 3 months, and reach 85% of adult salivary amylase levels by five months (PDF [11]). Since Alicia Silverstone feeds her kid a vegan diet [12], presumably rich in fruits and starches, pre-mastication is a sound tactic.
There's also lingual lipase, which breaks down long-chain triglycerides into glycerides and free fatty acids. Infants have lingual lipase at birth, but they have very little gastric (gut) lipase. Since babies absorb far less dietary fat than adults (65-80% versus more than 95%), a little extra lingual lipase activity provided by the pre-masticating parent combined with the kid's lingual lipase could improve absorption rates [13]. Hey, maybe that's what's causing infant obesity – a wave of pre-mastication sweeping the nation!
Unless you're drooling into your Vitamix, the parent who pre-masticates may be giving her kid a digestive advantage.
Transplantation of "Good" Oral Bacteria
Over 700 species of oral bacteria have been identified from human mouths, and the oral microbiome of any given individual may house from 30 to more than 100 different species. While oral bacteria can trigger the development of dental caries and periodontal disease, it's not all "bad." For example, many strains of oral bacteria taken from healthy children actually provide protection against harmful oral pathogens [14] and are being developed as oral probiotics. Other strains have been shown to directly influence the immune response in gum tissues [15], as well as protect the host from oral pathogen-induced apoptosis and inflammation [16].
I wasn't able to pull up any explicit references to pre-mastication as a transplantation method for "good" bacteria, but there is evidence that mouth to mouth contact between mother/father and offspring can transfer pathogenic cavity-causing bacteria to the child [17]. If the "bad" can be transferred, why not the "good"?
Development of the Immune System
Saliva contains the very same antibodies found in breastmilk, like immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin G, and immunoglobulin M. These help establish the budding immune system and provide passive resistance to pathogens, including bacterial infections and viral infections. There's very little research on the impact of saliva-borne immunoglobulins on infant health, but we do know that breastmilk-borne immunoglobulins are crucial to the development of an infant's immune system [18], so it seems likely that pre-mastication is also helpful (especially since both breastmilk and pre-chewed food enter a child through the same orifice).
Perhaps it's even a way for non-breastfeeding mothers to give their child a leg up.
Are there any downsides?
Transfer of "Bad" Oral Bacteria
As I just mentioned, a parent with dental disease [19] caused by bacteria could transfer the same bacteria to their child by pre-chewing his food. If the bacteria takes hold early enough, it could be difficult to dislodge it. The same could just as easily be said for the early transfer of good bacteria, though, so it's impossible to say who "wins."
It all depends on the oral health of the pre-masticator.
Transfer of Saliva-Borne Disease
Transfer of saliva-borne diseases is a possibility. Those include hepatitis G, herpes, TT-virus (which is widespread and seems pretty harmless), hepatitis B (although the hepatitises are present in low amounts in saliva), and there's mixed evidence that pre-mastication can and has transferred HIV from caregiver to child [20], although that probably requires an open sore or wound in the mouth.
Again, it depends on the health of the caregiver.
Pre-mastication appears to be a valid, viable way for Ma (or Pa) to deliver food to a baby's maw. There are some impressive potential health benefits, it might save money, and it could even bolster immunity. The potential downsides, however, must be considered. Overall, I don't think it's necessary for parents, and the social pariahism you're likely to face may not be worth the trouble, but I certainly find it intriguing.
How about you, folks? Would you – or have you already – pre-chew your kid's food?

This topic actually jumped into my head back when I was watching the first episode of "Who Do You Think You Are?" when Sarah Jessica Parker found out she had an ancestor named Jabez.
And then again when ClueWagon tweeted "This is cool: it tells you how to pronounce words, so you don't sound like a dork. http://bit.ly/9PbMZ" (and I am just now getting around to posting it.) So I click on the link to check it out and there I discovered that I have been sounding like a 'dork' for quite a while! That is not how I have been pronouncing Jabez.
The site we were all a "Twitter" about is called FORVO. If you are not sure how to pronounce a word, you can go to this site and actually hear how it is pronounced. However you may not find the pronunciation you are looking for if no one has submitted that particular word or name.
Of all the names in my database that I am not sure how to pronounce, only two of them have been submitted:
Hezekiah (I have been pronouncing this wrong too!)
So here are the other first names that I am not sure how to pronounce:
So if you know the proper way to pronounce these names, could you do a fellow genealogy blogger a favor and hop on over to FORVO and tell me how? (pretty please, with a cherry on top.)
Speaking about (okay, writing about) names, There are a few unusual ones in my database -- Preserved Fish -- (Come on, what in the world were his parents thinking?). Then there is Golden Bridges Keetch, and Daisy Fern Madsen.
Then there are the Puritan names like Increase, Experience, Comfort, Content, Fruitful, etc. It turns out that Given names have histories. Here is an excellent resource on names in history Given Names in Early America: Shaped by history, religion and traditions, by Myra Vanderpool Gormley, CG

The Department of Veterans Affairs is taking a page from the private sector to protect the "brand" of one of its most famous programs: the GI Bill.
The VA has registered "GI Bill" with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office making the agency the sole owner of the phrase, VA officials announced today. The move is tied to an executive order issued in April by President Obama directing the VA to "stop deceptive and misleading" promotional efforts aimed at servicemembers, veterans and their eligible family members or survivors.
"We want to ensure the right balance with these new guidelines so that our stakeholders can still promote GI Bill and we can prohibit others from using it fraudulently," Curtis L. Coy, deputy undersecretary for economic opportunity, said in the statement released today by the VA.
The VA expects to issue terms of use for "GI Bill" within the next six months, it said.
"We want to ensure the right balance with these new guidelines so that our stakeholders can still promote GI Bill and we can prohibit others from using it fraudulently," said Curtis L. Coy, deputy undersecretary for economic opportunity.
The VA also obtained the rights to the GIBill.com website after the original owners agreed to give up the site as part of a legal settlement. That site was operated by an online marketing firm whose clients included for-profit schools and colleges.
The firm, QuinStreet, not only gave up the GIBill.com domain name, but agreed to pay $2.5 million in penalties under the legal settlement with several state attorneys general over deceptive advertising practices intended to bring in veterans.
VA Secretary Eric Shinseki said the agency would continue to support veterans by helping them get the best education of their choosing.
"We all want veterans to be informed consumers in their educational pursuit," he said.
The VA says it has paid out more than $23.8 billion in Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to more than 866,000 vets, servicemembers and dependents since August 2009. The department currently has more than 478,000 Fall 2012 enrollments for bill benefits, it said.
