Kelli Benitez Headshot

TRAVEL DESIGNED TO BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER

HI, I'M KELLI BENITEZ

Travel has always meant more to me than simply seeing new places. Some of the best journeys are the ones that bring people together: families and friends, communities and organizations, or travelers who share a common interest.
That belief is at the heart of 7 Wonders Vacation. I thoughtfully curate travel experiences with the people, purpose, and details in mind, so you can focus on experiencing the journey together.

I care deeply about the experiences I help create, and I approach every trip with patience, attention to detail, and the same high standards I would want for my own family.

Welcome!

Kelli is so thoughtful in helping make each traveler's experience memorable and special. She truly puts so much care and effort into making sure that her clients have the best experience and shares all of the highlights of what the trip offers. She has a wealth of knowledge in her industry and I trust her advice and planning implicitly!

Anne | San Diego

Family Cruise | Bahamas, Caribbean

Switzerland

Kelli helped us plan an unforgettable family vacation. She found the perfect Mediterranean cruise for us to spend our first week visiting Greece, Turkey and Italy. Then she helped us research and plan an incredible week in Interlakken, Switzerland. She has a ton of knowledge and expertise and makes trip planning fun and easy.

June 2025 | Mediterranean Cruise +7 day Switzerland Extension

Mexican Riviera

This is our second trip we’ve done with Kelli’s assistance and guidance and it was fantastic. All the planning, communication and check in’s Kelli does through the entire process leads to a seamless and enjoyable vacation. So happy with her services. Will be back for more!

Jim | Long Beach, CA

Norway Fjords Tour

We had an amazing trip and Kelli made it so easy to plan. Everything went smoothly and it turned out perfect. Kelli was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. She took time to get to know my needs so we could pick the perfect trip. I would use Kelli again in an instant

Vicki | San Jose, CA

Northern Europe | Norway Fjords Land Tour

New York City

Kelli was our travel advisor for a corporate event we planned in NYC in December, 2024. She negotiated the hotel room block, assisted with all venues and event orders at the hotel, made the travel arrangements to NYC for all our participants, and arranged for bus transportation to/from all the events we held off property. Everything was perfect and went off without a hitch. We have already discussed using her services for our event in 2025. You're in good hands with Kelli!

Caribbean Family Cruise

Kelli was great to work with. She always there to answer even my "silly questions" but things that help put my mind at ease when planning a family vacation. I will absolutely circle back with Kelli when we are planning our next vacation. She was knowledgeable about the cruise line and helped to narrow down what would be the best experience for my family.

Katrina | Livermore, CA

Western Caribbean Family Cruise

Greek Islands Cruise

Excellent customer service. Kelli planned everything down to the smallest detail. The app is easy to use and incredibly functional. We loved having all the details and tickets all in one place during our trip. Our airline went on strike right before our trip and we were very nervous. Kelli outlined every step we would need to take if it impacted us, which it didn't. She's incredibly detail oriented and asked questions we never would have thought of! Incredible trip we will remember the rest of our lives.

9 Day Italy Land Tour

Hawaii Family Trip

Kelli was knowledgeable, organized, punctual and professional. Kelli helped us determine the best value and location for our family vacation. In the end, we thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and Kelli made it a breeze to decide on and book a location. There are so many reviews and options for travel these days that I often fall into a pit of over-analyzing and decision paralysis. Kelli saved me from that and we finally went on our relaxing vacation with our three young children. We made the best family memories!

Jessica | Livermore, CA

Kelli was so responsive and easy to work with. She got all the information I needed quickly and was spot on to my requests.

French Polynesia Honeymoon

Kelli was wonderful to work with! She made planning our honeymoon to the French Polynesia (Tahiti, Moorea & Bora Bora) so much easier. It felt comforting knowing we were in great hands! She is knowledgeable, quick to respond and so helpful! Highly recommend working with her for any vacation.

Jaydee | San Diego, CA

Maui, Hawaii

I knew we were in for a grand and unique experience by the first email we received from Kelli outlining our travel options. It was elegantly displayed, informative, and full of outstanding options that were exactly what we were looking for. Kelli pays attention! Her commitment to detail and customer service is unparalleled, and so refreshing. Our experience mattered to her at every level. She found the perfect condo in the exact location we were looking for, negotiated a good rate and looked out for us for the duration of our stay. We even received a lovely, welcome gift! She provided us with restaurant recommendations , excursion ideas, beaches to see and tips that made our 10 days on the beautiful island of Maui unforgettable. We are so grateful!

Melissa | Pleasanton, CA

Maui, Hawaii

Multi-Gen Mediterranean Cruise

Kelli is a gift that keeps on giving (literally). She was tasked with coordinating a trip for 3 families, 5 countries, for 22 days. As you can imagine there were a lot of moving parts to plan. She thought of everything from the transportation (arranging private transfers, trains, planes, & water taxi) while being thoughtful about how to best use our time (train vs. plane) & keeping budget in mind. Our entire trip was loaded into a beautiful user-friendly app that also held all our documents & tickets. Kelli is very organized, dependable, a joy to work with, and puts her heart into making sure the trip is special. Her level of caring felt as if she were planning it for her own family. To top of an amazing experience, we were greeted with a welcome gift in our room to start the trip and a welcome home gift to end the trip. Thank you, Kelli, for making this trip so special and memorable!

Unbelievable trip...We can’t thank Kelli enough for arranging our unbelievable trip to Italy, Greece, Montenegro, and Croatia

9 Day Mediterranean Cruise + Italy Land Extension

Multi-Gen Alaskan Cruise

Kelli planned a phenomenal Alaskan Cruise for my family. From the initial contact to the day we embarked, Kelli was accessible, and responsive, and worked tirelessly to give my family the best trip possible. At one point, when the cruise line separated our room (wife and me) from our kids' room (without notification), Kelli was relentless in solving the problem and ensuring we were close enough to keep an eye on things. Kelli also had a special treat waiting for us in our staterooms (chocolate-covered strawberries) and even decorated my parents' room for their anniversary. It is evident that this isn't just a job for Kelli but a passion...she truly found joy in making sure our trip was memorable. Thank you so much, Kelli!

Mediterranean Cruise + Italy Land Extension

Multi-gen Family Trip, Maui, Hawaii

Kelli was a joy to work with! She was given a complex task of two families vacationing together coming and going at different times throughout the trip. She listened to what we wanted and our feedback to the initial finds and landed our families with a great resort, flights and suggestions for activities. When I asked for flight additions after our trip was purchased, she worked with us on figuring out solutions. She also kept us in the loop and sent us off well right before we left. I would work with Kelli again in a heartbeat!

Your guidance you gave us along the way really made us at ease and we’re so grateful for your patience through the process.We had an incredible time, wow! Just wow! What a thoughtful surprise to come home to those Crumbl cookies! After all the flights and time zones, they hit the spot in the best way.

Thank you so much for helping us plan the most amazing memorable trip of a lifetime! Everything was perfect and the hotels were exactly what we were hoping for - central location, enough sleeping space for our family and number of bathrooms, level of hotel service and amenities with restaurant & bar/lounge and breakfast included daily was a perfect start and end to everyday on our trip! We all enjoyed every minute and can’t wait for our next European vacation Can’t thank you enough...YOU’RE AWESOME!!

A Dream Italian Thanksgiving

European Summer Vacation

So happy with 7 Wonders Vacation & Travel with Kelli Benitez! Kelli helped us with 2 vacations now both in 2024, one in Costa Rica, one in Europe, and it really is peace of mind to have someone to help make the reservations up front, and to be able to call in case there was a question or issue (which there wasn't!) We were greeted with a sweet welcome note by Kelli upon check in' s and just received a sweet treat as a thank you for booking through her. There can be so many moving parts in planning vacations, it's wonderful to have someone helping on the preplanning part with suggestions and recommendations! Thanks Kelli!
