During the first two weeks of April, this spring, my wife and I went to Morocco on a GVG tour. Morocco is a very diverse country both in its people and its land. Gene is a very knowledgeable leader and was very helpful to me as an older senior. We have been with Gene on several tours, and this one may have been the best.

Just returned from Maine hiking the Appalachian Trail after my first GVG trip and won't be my last. Everything I expected and more. Gene and the other guide anticipated all details and organized a wonderful trip so all I had to worry about was enjoying the beautiful scenery and hike. Already looking at other trips on the 2020 schedule.

We joined Gene on the Baltic Sea cruise tour August 22-Sept. 4th. This was our first trip out of the country, other than Mexico, and I was very impressed with the amount of time and effort both Gene and Christina put into making sure all of us had a wonderful trip. We had a few hiccups along the way, but that is what makes travel exciting right! The ports were wonderful and we got to see places I have only dreamed of seeing. We are looking forward to our next "adventure" with GVG tours!! Thank you Gene and Christina!!

We just returned from our 2019 Tanzania vacation with Gene. This was really a wonderful vacation. We saw so many animals in their natural environment every day. It seems every day was better than the previous day. Our favorite: elephants playing in a pond, splashing each other and two playful youngsters not wanting to leave when the matriarch said it was time to go. We checked off almost every animal from our map of 50 animals to see in Africa. All up close and personal. Fantastic! You need to do it!

We had a wonderful trip to Italy in October!! The weather was fabulous (except for the last night in Rome). So glad we made the trip!! I enjoyed learning about the horse races in Sienna, and actually seeing Pompeii - it was a large city!! I was impressed with the Florence American Cemetery and Memorial. I did not realize that there were American soldiers buried over there. It was very inspiring. All the local guides were very knowledgeable and it was good to have Sabina with us for the whole trip.

My brother, three friends and myself enjoyed immensely a recent Canadian Rockies / Glacial National Park tour. Our Canadian bus driver even secured beer for a pizza party. An extra touch appreciated by all. Gene is a great tour guide. Our only disappointment was the final score of the Bear Packer football game.

My wife and I just completed a fabulous tour of Italy with Gene. He goes above and beyond to make sure everybody enjoys their experience. He is with you the entire trip. Our trip covered all of the important tourist spots in Italy plus some add ons. I would highly recommend this trip and especially GVG tours. The group of people on this tour was phenomenal.

My husband Jim & I traveled to Ireland in October. We had a fabulous time. Beautiful scenery, fascinating history, lovely people. We appreciated how well the travel details were taken care of so we could relax & enjoy every minute of our time on the Emerald Isle.

Ireland trip was fantastic! The bus driver/ tour guide,Mickey , and Gene, each gave a tremendous amount of information on history, stories about fairies and leprechauns, Celtic stories and so much more. I want to go again!
