Gina helped us plan our family Christmas vacation this past year and we couldn’t be happier with her services. We stayed in Liberia, Arenal and San Jose Costa Rica. 🇨🇷 Gina sent us several options to choose from in each region and helped set up all of our excursions. We visited the ocean, jungle and volcano. We ate some awesome food and saw some pretty amazing animals along the way. 10 out of 10!!!
We just got back from a trip of a lifetime to Phuket, Thailand. It was amazing and with the help of Gina we were able to book an amazing resort called Aleenta, get excursion ideas from her repository and assisted us in identifying the best flight choices. I highly recommend using Gina and her services.
Would definitely recommend Gina Arefi Travel. We recently returned from Egypt. I had particularly requested an organized group tour and Gina found great options. She is very responsive and accommodates your requests and needs. Will definitely use her expertise for the next trip.
We had 2 European jaunts this summer covering England, Ireland, Switzerland, Germany and Italy. Gina helped my wife determine the various activities, logistics, hotels, trains, etc. and then masterfully developed a color by number itinerary with everything we needed. Superb trips both and great recommendations. Would have been really tough without this great plan.
Me and my boyfriend went to Tulum MX and it was the best time. It was my first time traveling without my family so I was very nervous to plan the whole thing myself. Also, I have never used a booking agent before and she was amazing at taking the time to explain the what her and my role would be. The resort and excursions were everything I had hoped for. She was very transparent with us whenever I would ask for receipts and price breakdowns. Even when one of our excursions lacked to include some information about an event thus making me ineligible to participate, she did everything she could to get a us refunded (which we were). If you ever are considering a travel advisor. DEFINITELY use Gina! 5 ⭐️
I reached out to Gina to help me find a hotel for a 5 night stay in Barcelina, Spain. She worked up a package for us that offered at least five different hotels and made recommendations on tours and sightseeing ventures. My cousin and I stayed in one of the recommended hotels on Ramblis Street. We were in the middle of everything and had a beautiful terrace that overlooked the street. It was a trip if a life time and Gina made it easy.
We had the best time on our honeymoon due to Gina planning such a great trip for us! She made the process so easy and stress free� Would absolutely recommend!
Gina Arefi travel is absolute top notch when planning the perfect vacation for you and your family. For me, traveling with my family of 6 was something I had wanted to do for a while. I knew I had a tall order for whichever agent was going to help me. I was planning for a group with teenagers and seniors. We all had something different we wanted to get out of the trip. In addition I had a pretty modest budget, considering all I was asking for. I really felt like my trip was possible but, I would need a travel magician to craft it into a trip that catered to everyones interest and needs. After talking to Gina she came up with some options for our hotels, activities and travel between countries. While we were talking, she was just as excited about my trip as I was. She thought of everything and I couldn't be more grateful for all her help! If you are like me and travel with a larger family and a wide range of ages I would highly recommend talking to Gina.
We just returned from 3-weeks traveling around New Zealand. A trip of a lifetime that was on our bucket list. Gina was referred to us by a local moms group and after interviewing several travel agents we chose Gina and are so happy we did. She listened to us - our wants, desires, importance of things, places and items - and planned an itinerary for us of driving around the entire country so we could see and experience everything. It was perfect for us. She kept in contact with us before and during our trip even during the holidays and while she was with her own family on vacation in another country. She checked in with us when we got back making sure everything went well. We would highly recommend Gina, without hesitation to anyone wanting a great experience.
I highly recommend Gina Arefi planning your next vacation. She booked our last summer vacation to Cancun, Mexico, she provided a personalized itinerary according to our preferences and budget. During our trip she took the time to check on us. She was in charge of everything from flights, accommodations and transportation to and from the airport. She was always available when I had questions, we really enjoyed our trip and her help. I’ll give her a call for our next trip for sure. Thanks Gina!
I recently used Gina as my travel agent for a trip to Costa Rica, and it was the best decision I could have made! From start to finish Gina took care of everything! Will be using for all future travel
Gina took care of everything for my friends and I to have the most amazing girls trip! When you have 3 gals all wanting to get something specific out of a trip it can get complicated and it didn't even phase Gina she nailed it for everyone and we are so grateful!! Thank you so much Gina
Gina listened to what we wanted, found several different options for us and even dealt with my indecisiveness with patience and kindness. She is super fun too! She loves to travel herself, so she understands just how important all the details truly are. We had to get to the airport at an ungodly hour, but she knew it was what we needed to make our connecting flight work. 😴 Thank you, Gina, for the luxurious and relaxing vacation that you so carefully curated for us! ❤
