Pros
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience for my first travel assignment. American Traveler has made the entire process feel easy from start to finish. Everything was explained clearly, and I always knew what the next step was, i never felt like i was left in the dark. One of my favorite things has been how communicative everyone is. Whether it’s my recruiter, Amanda, or Iranna from payroll, I always get a quick response when I have a question. It’s nice working with a team that actually follows up and keeps you in the loop. Amanda has been awesome throughout my assignment. She checks in regularly with a call or text just to see how things are going and make sure I don’t need anything. That level of support has really stood out to me. I’m rly happy I chose American Traveler for my first assignment, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with them again.

Rancho Mirage, CA
About
Rancho Mirage in southern California, just south of Palm Springs, is a wonderful place to escape the winter blues. The city’s name comes from a story of a woman named Ruth Wheeler who saw a ranch in the distance and mistook it for a mirage, hence the name “Rancho Mirage.” Characterized by abundant sun, desert and palm trees, Rancho Mirage offers much more than you might imagine. Visitors love Sunnylands Center & Gardens, a 200-acre estate once so popular with U.S. presidents that it earned the nickname “the Western White House.” Play a round of golf at one of Rancho Mirage’s many stunning golf courses, or enjoy some live music at the Rancho Mirage Amphitheater. For those with their heads in the clouds, try stargazing at the brand new Rancho Mirage Observatory, featuring a telescope where you can see objects 50 million light years away.
