Great Expectations Travels

I want to thank Sherrie for planning a once in a lifetime tour. I went on her 2-​week Best of Thailand 2015 tour that celebrated the Thai New Year and I have to say it was one of the best trips I’ve ever been too. On this tour we visited Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phi Phi and Phuket.
Sherrie planned everything perfectly, and she is on top of every detail. It is not easy when you are spending 2-​weeks in 4 different cities to see everything, but we covered all the places we needed to see and activities we needed to do. We saw all the temples, visited the elephants at a rescue sanctuary, played with the tigers, went snorkeling, and did many, many day and night tours around Thailand. Once again, everything was planned perfectly. Sherrie is also a caring tour guide, making sure that every person on the tour had a very good time.
Our hotels were incredible and we only stayed in 5-​star hotels. We stayed in hotels that were centrally located, and easy to walk to markets. When we went to the beach in Phi Phi, we stayed at a hotel that had the entire side of the island to itself.
I am going to continue going on the tours Sherrie puts on because I can’t see myself traveling any other way.

If you want to have the most extraordinary experience on a trip, Id definitely recommend Great Expectations Travel. I just returned from the most incredible trip of my life — Thailand [ including four cities] !! This is the 2^nd trip I am going on with this tour that is out of the country. She made this trip so amazing, she is so organized and free-​spirited from the flights to the buses etc…
From the temples to the baby tigers and elephants along with the serene beautiful Islands — everything was just perfect. The hotels were breathtaking, the food was amazing, the love we all have for each other as a group– its just family. Also the pricing was unbelievable. I do not understand how she does it =). Last year I wrote «Cant wait for Thailand April 2015 with Great Expectation Travels.» Now after my return I can write this review saying «Cant wait for South America 2015». My 3^rd time with this Tour Company /​Sherrie, and definitely not my last.
Thank you for the memories that will never be forgotten.

I just returned from Thailand with Great Expectations Travels. It was an incredible experience. Very well organized. The hotels were all beautiful and very accommodating. The trip definitely blew me away. Words cannot explain how amazing my experience was. We got to take care of elephants and take pictures with tigers. We saw monks and incredible temples. I definitely recommend Great Expectations Travels to everyone. I am already looking forward to my next trip with GET!

I recently traveled to Costa Rica using this company. At first, I wasn’t sure about booking a tour package, as I’ve always planned my own itinerary. It was actually great having Sherrie take care of everything and not having to worry about a darn thing. Everything about this trip was amazing! I’m not usually very adventurous and I never would have done a lot of the excursions on my own. I went on this tour thinking I wasn’t going to go on some of the planned excursions, but I found myself excited for what awaited me the next day. Doing this with a group was so much fun, and it gave me the courage to try new things I’d never do. I can honestly say this was the best vacation I’ve ever taken!

I recently traveled to Costa Rica with GET. I can honestly say that it was one of my favorite trips of all time. As a traveler, I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect vacation. Everything was so well organized not to mention the best hotel accommodations!
Great Expectations Travels way surpassed my expectations! I would recommend it to all!

I don’t even know where to start. I would recommend Great Expectations Travels to EVERYONE because I used the travel service and I wasn’t disappointed for a second. I gave Sherrie the task of a lifetime and she pulled it off!
Like many people planning a wedding and finalizing all the little details, the bachelorette party, and honeymoon are often not at the top of the list of ‘Things To Do’ right away. My now husband and I knew that we wanted to have our closest friends get away with us for a little vacation to seal single life, so I called Sherrie to pick her brain and see what she could come up with for a young couple who wants to go to a great destination that has it all for my girls and his boys. She was super patient with me and had great advice on where to go, what to do, and how much it would all cost. I never felt that she was selling me a destination that she wasn’t truly passionate about and it helped that she knew all the details of different places because she had been before. After going back and forth with my fiancé (at the time), we decided to go to with Cabo! Although we were going to Cabo for a joint bachelor/​bachelorette weekend, we wanted to not be together most of the time. She booked the girls a separate resort from the boys and customized the perfect little vacation for each group. For a short 4 day getaway, she packed in everything everyone wanted. We were greeted at the airport by two private buses and taken to Melia Cabo and the guys went to Dreams. We got to our rooms and we were blown away by our accommodations. Without breaking the bank, we got a lot more than we expected. We hung out at the pool, got pampered at the spa, at amazing food, and got some necessary girls celebrating out of the way. On our last night in Cabo we wanted a joint dinner and Sherrie made the reservations for us at the restaurant and got us a stretch limousine to take us out at night. Although we had a great concierge at our resorts, she had taken care of all the details from LA and left us with nothing to worry about. It was just like having our own private concierge doing everything all the way from LA.
The Cabo trip was incredible and I could go on and on about all the cool things we did. Needless to say, the wedding was great and she has taken over and helped us plan our summer honeymoon to Italy, Spain, and France! I’m so excited to go on that trip because I know it will exceed my expectations… again! Thank you for your help with making the planning of my trips so effortless and memorable. I will never go to another travel agency.

I just got back from a trip that was put together by Great Expectations Travels and I was completely blown away. The accommodations were incredible and the different excursions /​activities were a blast.
In the past I’ve stayed away from tours because I enjoy traveling like a local. That was not the case with this trip. Our guides knew exactly where to take us to eat and drink like the locals, but also made sure we saw all the sights we needed to see.
The trip to Costa Rica put together by Great Expectations Travels surpassed every expectation I had. I’m already counting down the days for our next adventure together! Thanks again for a great trip Great Expectations Travel!

I just got back from Costa Rica with Great Expectations Travels and can honestly say it was one of the best experiences of my life. Between the amazing excursions (zip lining, white water rafting, rappelling, snorkeling) and the beautiful hotels it was truly and unforgettable experience.
Sherrie had everything planned perfectly and was a joy to be around. After the first day on the trip, I already felt like I had broken even. This trip was the perfect blend of excitement and relaxation (who wants to come home from a vacation exhausted?).
I would recommend Great Expectations Travels to everyone and cannot wait for the next trip!

I had the most incredible experience with Great Expectations Travels. I just returned from their Extreme Spring Break trip to Costa Rica and could not be more impressed.
The hotel accommodations were beyond my expectations. We had a different experience everyday, from ziplining, waterfall rappelling, white water rafting, and snorkeling, all included in the package. I highly recommend this trip or any trip with Great Expectations!

I had the most amazing time of my life! I am truly blessed to have picked GET tours for my vacation. This was my first vacation, and it exceeded my expectations. I was able to experience Costa Rica inside and out. I zip lined thoroughly the jungles, river rafted for my first time and even got to waterfall repel. I was able to get over my fears and made life long friends.
The trip leader was very organized and on point. I never once felt like It was unsafe or confused about the activities for the day. Not to mention the hotel rooms! I felt like a queen, with views of Volcano Arenal, or the coastline. It felt like I was in a movie the entire trip. Wish it wasn’t over! Pura Vida!
