Lori chose a great all inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta. Snorkeling excursion with Vallarta Adventures she recommended was the favorite for our family.

Lori did a great job coordinating travel for 4 of us traveling together from two different parts of the county. Our trip was originally planned prior to the Covid pandemic and had to be postponed. Lori seamlessly handled everything while keeping us informed and up-to-date. When we were able to travel again, Lori informed us of what information and requirements were now needed. She rebooked our tour group, airline and airport transportation. While we waited to go on our trip, Lori took time to keep us updated on all the changing covid testing requirements ensuring we would not have any surprises during our travels. She also promptly made sure we received all necessary information from our tour company so we could adequately prepare for our trip.

Lori was so patient with all our questions and concerns. Very easy to work with . We added on to my sisters vacation and she was so helpful with arranging all the air and hotel reservations to match their's.

Lori is passionate about what she does- she loves to travel, and loves to help people plan their travels! Her vast travel experience and years spent working in the travel industry show through in her attention to detail and thoughtful suggestions. She was great at taking our interests into consideration while helping us plan our cruise to Alaska and offered great suggestions so that we could make the most of our time and get the most out of our cruise. I would highly recommend Lori to anyone wanting to plan a trip!

We took. group of boys here for their senior spring break and it was a great time! It was a perfect resort for prices point, food, entertainment and something for everyone! Parents also had a a great time and the resort and beach were so well maintained. What was the best part was the staff. They make you feel like family and it's hard to leave them!

She listen to what we wanted, and what was inportant and put it all together to make everything go perfect. we had time of our life Thank you so much.

We had a great experience working with Lori. This was our first Cruisetour with Holland America and only our 2nd cruise. There were 2 couples in our group and she made sure to communicate with both of us. She answered all of our questions in a very timely manner, both by phone and email. Very helpful through the whole process.

Lori made our trip from start to finish … perfect !!! Any questions were answered promptly, and so helpful. Thank you for our fabulous experience.

From day one, Lori had information and options for the cruise that we enquired about. She was very calm and informative, had answers to our questions and kept us informed on any changes that incurred. Any time I emailed or texted her with questions, she responded very promptly. We ran into a passport glitch close to our vacation week and she was able to guide us through the steps needed to get it fixed quickly. I would highly recommend Lori to help with you plan your next trip.

This trip was a trip of a lifetime and Lori made the whole trip amazing. Everything was taken care of from the beginning to the end. Lori was always in contact with us on all of the steps of our cruise and land tour. Would definitely recommend Lori. We will be utilizing her skills in the future.

Enjoyed the trip with a friend of mine. The beach was kept clean along with the pools. Only ate the buffet food & it could have been better but was still nice.

First, Lori was right on with Holland as the cruise to take seeing Alaska. Well planned, great accommodations, excellent food, fun shows and activities. Second, Lori was very professional, detailed, excellent communication, very quick response to questions, and extremely knowledgeable about Alaska travel. She guided us in the perfect stateroom location, side trips, and most importantly documents needed for travel , luggage identification, and itineraries throughout our 10 day travel. I absolutely would recommend Lori Gardner as your full service Alaska travel agent. Thank you Lori for the lasting memories! Jim and Judy V.

Two years ago my husband and I decided we would take our family on an Alaskan cruise to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary in 2025. The group included our adult son and daughter, their spouses and our three grandchildren—ages 12, 10 and 9. (Our son and his family live in Philly; the rest of us in Minneapolis.) None of us had ever been on a cruise. We worked with Lori from the get-go to plan a 10-day cruise/land tour with Princess cruise lines. As soon as the 2025 bookings for the Sapphire Princess became available, Lori selected and booked the best staterooms on the ship for us, which included a family suite and two mini-suites. The trip involved a cruise from Vancouver into Glacier Bay with stops in Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway, and then a domed train ride into Denali Park. There is NO WAY we could have planned and organized the logistics of a multi-generational 9-person Alaskan expedition without Lori’s guidance. Everyone had an absolutely marvelous time, everything worked out

Lori helped myself and extended family put together an Alaskan Cruise in May of 2025. For many of us, it was our first time on a cruise. Lori helped us get rooms near each other and walked us through any questions we had. Lori emailed us reminders prior to the trip of when things were due, and gave helpful tips of what to pack and expect on our Alaskan cruise. Lori responded to our emails in a timely fashion. I would recommend her to others looking for a travel agent.

We had a wonderful experience on our Alaskan cruise and land tour to Denali National Park. We are especially grateful to Lori Gartner for her exceptional planning and coordination. From flights and airport transfers to hotel accommodations, train travel, and our staterooms on the ship, every detail was flawlessly arranged. With four of us traveling, managing the logistics on our own would have been overwhelming, but Lori made the entire process seamless. We will definitely reach out to her for future travel plans and will enthusiastically recommend her to our friends and family.

From preplanning to travel prep Lori was so helpful. Our vacation was wonderful and everything went exactly to plan from the airport transfers to our planned activities and accommodations. Our trip was tailored to our needs and wishes and was everything we had hoped it would be.

Lori did a fabulous job of putting together an agenda that was perfect for our group. It included everything we were looking for in our once in a lifetime group. Lori was always quick to answer our questions.

We had the most unreal trip you could ever imagine...our flight was grounded midway to our destination because of a security threat. The city we landed in was not a city that our airline flew out of, so things were absolutely crazy. Everyone else on our flight was panicked and calling the airline...but not us! We had Lori in our corner, and she handled everything!! With three little kids in a situation like this, we already had our hands full, so you can imagine how phenomenal it was to not have to worry about calling the airline, trying to get information and freaking out about the unknowns. Lori was a STAR!!! Not only did she handle it all, she made us feel at ease throughout the entire process and ensured us that things would be OK. After the daylong delay because of the security threat, the city we were in had a once-in-a-decade dust storm that grounded all their flights...so another day of our 5 day vacation was wasted at the airport. But again, Lori saved the day! She was on th

When we decided to travel this year, I thought I would set it up all on my own. I can do this right? I found that there were so many things that I needed to research and consider. I eventually chose to go to Travel leaders and was placed with Lori Gartner. From that point on, planning was seamless. She found us a deal at the resort we were interested in and took care of everything. Whenever I had a question, she was quick to respond and made sure I understood what to do. It didn't matter how little or silly the question was, she answered it. When the trip came, everything was perfect. Lori made sure we know what last minute things to plan for and book and everything went off without a hitch. It was so relaxing and comforting knowing someone had our backs and made sure we did not forget anything. Thank you Lori!

Our honeymoon was amazing! Travel was easy for our first trip together and the resort was beautiful.

Lori had everything so organized and was so easy to work with. Her communication via email was excellent. I will definitely book with Lori again!

Lori takes care of everything, so we can just pack our bag and enjoy our trip! We'll definitely keep traveling thru Lori.

Lori has been extremely helpful in helping us replan our trip to Maui. She was quick to act upon a flight in LA that was canceled & rebooked us on a flight to Seattle instead. That made us get to our destination of Maui earlier in the day. We are much appreciative for that. She kept on top of it all & communicated with us when needed.

Very easy booking experience.

She made it easy, answered all of our questions and was very concerned about it being a perfect trip. It was. She suceeded/

This was an adventure cruise with 22 people to unpredictable Alaska. Lori’s attention to detail, fine tuning of so many logistical details, all came together perfectly.

I can’t imagine how everything could have been any more perfect. We all had jam packed agendas (many excursions chosen from Lori’s input) and everyone seized each day, ports, sailing days and land travel.

Even the weather was exceptional for the entire trip.

Holland America, once again provided a very special experience each and every day.

Thank you for your valued assistance with everything.

Using a travel agent is no doubt the best way to travel. Lori was such an informative, helpful, and resourceful person. Every single detail from planning our trip a year in advance was taken care of. She is very attentive to the big and small details, the best pricing, the best deals, airlines , updates, etc. If you are going to use a travel agent you can trust in Lori whole heartedly.

Lori arranged an excellent 6 day sunny spring break vacation for my husband and I along with our two good friends. She listened to all of our requests regarding ocean front rooms, location of resort, and price range. After talking with Lori, she provided us with three different options and we made our selection. We decided to try an adults only all inclusive resort in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, which was wonderful! The food, service, and the optional excursions were all top notch. The transportation vouchers she provided made traveling go smoothly. This is our third trip using Gartner Travel, and we were pleased with her ideas and suggestions and are already thinking about our next vacation!

Highly recommend Lori was very helpful including a typo error in paper work that she was able to correct in minutes

Lori is fantastic to work with. She is very responsive to inquiries, form the initial planning stages, and all the way through the entire process. Our group travel ended up needing a date change which she handled perfectly and efficiently. She maintained great communication throughout updating us with everything we needed to know.

Lori arranged our trip to Costa Rica. We had an absolute great time. Lori took care of our flight arrangements and our tour with Globus. Everything went perfectly.

Very Prompt with everything and very responsive!

Excellent, she was always very responsive.

Lori is incredibly thorough in preparing us for the cruise from flight, to transfer, to cruise, to transfer and return home.
No one can ask for more support than what you get from Lori!

Lori was fabulous to work with. This was our first cruise and we had a lot of questions. Lori was always prompt about getting back to us and reminding us what needed to be done before the deadline. We will definitely use her again when planning future cruises and trips!!

Lori dies an amazing job of lining things up and has a working knowledge about many destinations.

Lori is a very professional and detailed individual. She went the extra mile to ensure the trip covered everything from start to finish.

Putting our travel to France wish list in Lori’s very capable hands was the best decision we made. From start to finish her organization of flights, hotels and complex train schedule went without a hitch. We were truly able to relax into the vacation and know all the details were taken care of. Lori really cares about her clients and does everything to ensure a care free and memorable experience!

Lori was well versed and extremely helpful whilst planning our Mexico vacation with us. She provided great detail for the different tropical resorts and vacation packages. She also took the worry out of getting to Mexico, traveling to the resort, and back to the US. Overall, outstanding experience and we would recommend Lori for any future travel endeavors.

Lori was very easy to work with. She handled all of our questions and requests in a professional and timely manner. Our trip was great and went off without any problems.

Lori is excellent in booking reservations and taking care of all details needed for a great vacation. She will give travel options before booking and always informs me if there any changes to itinerary. She certainly takes the stress away from doing the planning and booking. I have used Lori in past vacations and definitely will in future vacations.

Lori is great, this was our third booking .

Communications were excellent

Lori was amazing at every step of this planning process. Due to covid and other circumstances, this trip had to be rescheduled multiple times. She couldn't have been more patient with us. Due to her hard work and planning, my kids and I had a once in a lifetime European trip to remember! We didn't have one issue with the entire trip. I'd highly recommend Lori to anyone planning a trip!

Lori is fantastic. Always available to assist to ensure our trip goes off without a hitch

Lori is honestly the MOST AMAZING travel agent around!! She took an impossible travel scenario and made it a reality...and even made it look easy! She gave me so many options that I was able to tailor this trip perfectly to what I was looking for. I loved working with Lori so much that I've already recommended her to my mother and my mother-in-law!

Excellent. Our hotel was wonderful, flights were good, and she provided ideas and opportunities based on what I was looking for. Car rental went smoothly too and that was a first for me.

Lori was great! She asked questions on what type of vacation we envisioned, gave recommendations and put the details all together! We had a wonderful trip and could not have done it without her. Thanks so much for everything you did!!!

She has booked our 3 past trips! Lori knows the ins and outs and honestly always goes above and beyond. We knew what to do before during and after the trip. Just sending the forms and telling us when to fill them out made a huge difference!

We worked with Lori to book a family vacation to Niagara Falls (the Canadian side). She quickly responded to my initial request and asked several follow up questions to make sure she could book a great vacation for us! After showing us several options for places to stay, she also helped us get attractions lined up.

Our trip was wonderful and Lori provided us with lots of ideas of places to visit. She was also great about make sure we had the proper documents for travel with our children over the border.

Lori was extremely helpful and knowledgeable in helping us plan our family vacation. She knew and understood guidelines/stipulations while traveling during this time. She was very knowledgeable about the exact location we were going and was able to give us expert advice about Hawaii. Lori was aware of our needs/wants for our travel experience and guided and helped us the entire way.....before, during, and after our trip. I would like to highly recommend Lori Gartner for all your travel needs!! Thanks so much, Lori for an experience of a lifetime with my family. Our fantastic family vacation allowed us to make memories we will never forget.

Lori is pleasant to work with, very informative and thorough. We left for our trip confident that all the details were in place.
