    Honeymoon Review

    Gale planned our honeymoon to Costa Rica and we are so glad we got her to help us! We were very busy from wedding planning and had a lot of decision fatigue, so trying to plan a honeymoon on top of all of that felt daunting. We had a general idea of what we wanted to do, and after describing what we were looking for to Gale, she delivered an amazing trip! We wanted mostly relaxation, but also wanted to do some trips and see some of the wildlife in natural settings. The two resorts we stayed at were amazing and we took some great excursions. I would definitely recommend Gale for any travel planning needs!

    Gale was very knowledgeable and wonderful to work with in planning our 10th anniversary trip to Playa Mujeres, Mexico. She recommended the perfect resort for us, and it was just what we wanted. We received an amazing upgrade before the trip, she took care of all the flight and resort details, and we had the best time! We will definitely use Gale and Great Getaways the next time we travel.

    Great experience with Gale. Made everything super easy, one less stress you need to worry about during wedding planning time!

    I'm a super satisfied customer! If anything does come up that is an issue with anything, Gale will go out of her way to solve anything.

    Awesome person to work with!

    Gale was able to find better deals than we could find ourselves. As we were approaching a booking, the prices jumped on the cruise we wanted (which was a good deal before the jump in price). She went above and beyond to immediately find us an even better deal than the good deal were originally booking. Same price, but an upgraded BALCONY room! We had a great time on the trip!

    Gale was extremely knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process of finding the perfect honeymoon spot. She was able to answer all of the questions I had and was always prompt in her responses. She gave several options and guided us to the best fit for us based on our interests. We could not have been happier!

    Gale was outstanding! I pestered her with questions and asking for different options and she never batted an eye. She always replied quickly and with a friendly, happy response. She got us a wonderful trip for a very reasonable price and we had a great time. We will most definitely use her again, and have already been passing her name around to our friends and family.

    I would definitely recommend Gale Adouli to help you with all your travel needs. She will go out of her way to make sure you take the right vacation at the right place. She will search for prices that will suit your budget. She has traveled to many of the destinations that she offers so she can give you great advice when planning your next trip!

    Gale was amazing! She had our honeymoon planned in no time. She was very knowledgable about resorts in Costa Rica and gave all of her recommendations. We had everything planned for us including transportation from the airport to resort and back. She also recommended certain activities for us to do. Highly recommend Gale for ALL of your travel needs! She is a gem!

    Great service! Gale was so awesome! She helped us book the perfect honeymoon at a great price! Then when we missed our flight and she helped us find another flight quickly at a good price! She even gave us her cell number to call when we were at the airport panicking! Great service!

    My spouse and I planned our destination wedding through Gale Adouli of Great Getaways. We decided on having it in Costa Rica. Gale quickly responded with a listof resorts. Each resort list contained detailed information including amenities, price, length of stay, etc. Gale handled everything once we selected our resort. We flew in and a shuttle was waiting specifically for us and another couple to take to our resorts. Thank you, Gale, for making our Wedding/Honeymoon trip wonderful and stress-free!

    Gale has been such a pleasure to work with. We have used her services multiple times, but our wedding was our most memorable. Gale not only helped me with transportation and lodging at the wedding but she also played a large role in our wedding planning. I asked her to suggest some resorts in Mayan Riviera area and she provided a variety of resorts at different price points. We couldn't be any happier with the resort she recommended. It was perfect! She also helped all of our wedding guests with transportation and lodging. Planning a destination wedding can be stressful but Gale really helped me out. She's always professional and responsive.
    I would recommend her services to anyone!

    Gail at Great Getaways has helped schedule several trips in/out of the country for us and always does a fantastic job w/ all the details. On one of our belated anniversary trips, she made sure the hotel knew it was our anniversary and we were surprised with chocolated covered strawberries, rose petals on the bed...it was such a sweet surprise!! Great Getaways does a great job and I have referred many of my friends to them.

    We have used Gale and Great Getaways for all our cruises. She is very professional and always works closely with us to make sure the cruise is everything we want...from room choice to trip insurance. Gale is very personable and she looks out for us. We do not hesitate to recommend Gale.

    Greatly simplified our lives planning our honeymoon. Plenty of options and coordinated our resort and flights (without any stopovers), no additional charge to us. Would certainly recommend to anyone planning international vacation/travel.

    We had an extraordinary honeymoon at the Excellence Resort in Punta Cana. We passed several different resorts along the way and the one that we stayed at was by far the nicest one. Gale was so amazing at getting us the perfect honeymoon getaway. She has personally been to many of these places and knows firsthand just how incredible these places are. I am never going to book another vacation any other way.

    Gale made our destination wedding very easy and worry free, getting all of our guest from different locations to the Dominican Republic and back home again safely and without any hiccups. She is very friendly and quick to respond back to any questions you may have and give any suggestions that she may have. My wife and I are very happy with her services and would (and have) recommend her to anyone looking for a travel agent.

    Gale was great at helping us pick out the location for our destination wedding. The resort was fantastic, the wedding was better than I could expect, and all of our guests had a great time. We can't wait to go back!
