“We loved Danielle, our personal guide in the countryside. She was fun, informative and made sure we enjoyed every minute of our visit.”
–MD (France 05/07)
Our experience and insider knowledge allows us to create unique, enriching and memorable travel experiences as we feel luxury vacations don’t have to “break the bank.” We work diligently to create the most value for your travel investment dollar. Planning a cruise? Consider a custom tour for your shore excursion at various ports as an alternate to what is offered by the cruise ship. This can significantly enhance your experience of the areas visited, and can often even save you money!
“What comes to mind when you hear the word, PARIS? Museums, Eiffel Tower, Rodin, Bois de Boulogne, City of Lights, Louvre, tea rooms, Coco Chanel, Wine, Moulin Rouge, cathedrals, fine restaurants, flea market, OOH, LA, LA! I experienced all of this PLUS much more by going to Paris with Jan Acorn of Gateway Destinations and her French guide, Eric. There is no substitute for seeing France with a Frenchman. Jan made it all so easy by meticulous advanced planning and bookings. She smoothed the way at every turn and the only decision I had to make was choosing between the fruit tart or the chocolate éclair! I was treated like the infamous queen, but through it all, unlike the queen, I was able to keep my head. Eric’s daily French kisses on both cheeks weren’t hard to take either.”
–Kay S. (France 8/09)
