Testimonials

Carlos,Your US Open travel package was perfect - all of my expectations were exceeded. In addition to spectacular tennis at Flushing Meadows I compliment you on your choice of our hotel. That was a great location for a short subway ride to the Open andeasy access to mid and lower Manhattan. I wanted to get familiar with Manhattan and I did thanks to being in a central location. Thanks for being available for sightseeing tips and guidance. Thanks also for the gifts you included in your trip package and the surprise limo ride to the Open. And thanks for all the US Open tips and the Sharapova sightings. I never did go to my purchased seats!

Sam and I had such a wonderful time in New York at The US Open! We got to see some incredible tennis, and meet great folks like you and Nelson! From the moment we met you at the social, we knew we liked you guys! You were both very informative and easy-going, and your passion for tennis showed in how well you ran the tour. I've already phoned our travel agent and told her how super you guys are, and that we would highly recommend your tour group to others. Sam and I would be very happy to post a recommendation for you, just let us know how!

Tom and I enjoyed our tennis vacation immensely. Thanks for everything you did to help make our U. S. Open experience memorable. Hope the rest of our fellow travelers enjoyed it as much as we did.

Ourtripto the U.S. Open tennis tournament was FANTASTIC! Broach Sports Tours, Carlos, and his associates could not have done any more to make sure that every client on this trip had the best experience possible. They took care of every detail andwent above and beyond expectations on numerous occasions. Our accommodations were wonderful (Maria Sharapova even stayed there). Throughout the event theycontinuously triedto upgrade our seatsand stayed in contactto see if there was anything else they could do for us. Thanks for amemory that will last a lifetime!

Hello from London, Carlos!

My dad can't stop talking about our Wimbledon experience. He said that other than marrying my mom, this has been the most blissfully happy experiences of his life. We REALLY had a priceless, memorable, outstandingly beautiful all-day experience there.

Everything was perfect. We watched nearly 5 matches and bought up lots of Wimbledon souvenirs.

The people were SO nurturing, professional, and very personable and friendly. The man who handed us our tickets at our table knew you personally. We felt so welcome. Everything was easy to find. The food was unrivaled and the servers were smiling and gracious and well-informed about the current tennis matches the entire time. We really appreciate the fact that you provided us with the hospitality experience.

We had no idea how much of a lovely experience in itself hospitality could be. The pianist/saxophonist even played all the songs that I knew from high school.

We think highly of the service you provided us and you've gained our trust.

I'd like to keep in contact with you about attending either the Australian Open or the US Open. My dad would like to join me again, and my husband Brandon would like to come to see the tennis next time, too.

-- All of our best,Anita Adeeko Cook

Traveling with Broach Sports Tours and Carlos was a very fun experience. We knew it was him when we heard his voice in the lobby of the hotel in New York City. Our trip started out with a social for the group the afternoon we arrived. He gave us all the tips and in's and out's that we needed to make the most of our trip like, how to use the subway, where to eat, where to shop, things to not miss at The Open, etc. He also made it possible to get our teenagers pictures with Andy Murray when we ate at the same restaurant. When a lady on the trip lost her ticket Carlos took his time away from watching tennis to stand outside the gates to try and buy her another ticket. We found Carlos to be very easygoing with a great sense of humor. Thanks to Carlos for a great trip.
