Sunset Travel & Cruise Agency
A Tale of Two Travelers
Owners Antonio Milito and Renee Meaux — a married couple with four daughters of their own — love traveling for two reasons — the food and the culture!
They don’t just go for the most popular tourist spots, but rather research and find the best off-the-beaten-path hidden gems that allow them to truly immerse themselves in local culture.
They take time to get to know local restaurants, watering holes, hotel managers, and tour guides to find the best spots. By befriending locals, they get an insider’s perspective into the best things to do, places to eat, and experiences to have.
It’s these experiences that they want you to experience, as well!
They took over the business from Tony’s father, who started it in 1973, and are still in the same location. While many travel agents went out of business with the rise of online travel booking, Sunset Travel & Cruise has kept going strong because of a passion for travel, clients who love them, and the in-depth knowledge that it takes to not only book the best options, but curate an experience that will never be forgotten.
Their favorite location?
That would be Italy, due in large part to the fact it has such varied regions with truly unique food and culture. Whether you’re visiting Northern, Central, or Southern Italy, you’re guaranteed a unique adventure, breathtaking scenery, and memories that last a lifetime.
But it’s not just about Italy — it’s about wherever you want to go.
Rely on the Sunset Travel & Cruise team for not only the best places, but the best ways to travel!
With insider information on flight discounts, tour packages and local hospitality, they can help the people of Chicago make memories and have experiences that will last a lifetime, and change their view of the world.
