Maire is very knowledgeable about travel. She apprised me of various options along the way, some of which I hadn't considered. Her willingness to communicate with everyone to ensure smooth sailing meant not only a hassle free experiencing some nice perks along the way.

Maire was great to work with and helped us plans agrrat family vacation last minute. She helped with the entire process end-to-end from helping us finalize a destination, to travel, housing, activities and all the details (picking up keys, etc). The place she arranged was amazing and exactly in our price range. We’ll definitely be calling Maire again!

Excellent! Maire helped immensely in arranging all aspects of my trip, which involved airline travel, train travel, day trips, hotels, and car services. Everything was efficient and all paperwork was very organized.

Maire was amazing. She is so detail oriented and so knowledgeable. I think by the end of our trip I came to the conclusion Maire knows me better than I know myself. You are going to absolutely love working with Maire. She truly makes dreams comes true.

We took our first trip London & Paris in August. Since we had never been to Europe before and I'm not a great planner, we decided to have a professional help make this trip happen for us. Maire from Hidden Gems Vacations was recommended by a friend. Maire and I spoke on the phone and she listened to me share my thoughts and what I was looking for in this trip. Actually, I wasn't exactly sure what that was but I knew I wanted it to be perfect and perfect it was! She planned everything including our excursions and transfers from one place to the next. We met in person to review everything and Maire was as lovely then as she was over the phone and through text. We were celebrating our anniversary when we were in Paris and Maire made sure that night very special.

If you are looking for a great and knowledgeable person to help you plan your next trip or your first, I would highly recommend Maire and Hidden Gems.

I met Maire at exactly the right time. My wife and I were planning a trip to Riviera Maya and kept finding out that we thought it was going to be out of our price range. Maire was able to book us our trip for half the price we found online and it included our airfare! She did all of the work!

Maire is a truly lovely person who wanted to be sure we had a wonderful vacation, and we did!

She took care of every detail! And she was available for all the questions we had before and during our trip. I’ll definitely be in touch again for future trips!

Maire was so easy to work with. She is an excellent listener which certainly made even more enjoyable. The luxurious accommodations, travel arrangements, and her many travel tips for area of the continent were spot on!

We asked Maire to plan a 7 day trip to Canada.We explained to her our wishes regarding Hotels and Airlines..Everything was perfect..No issues from the moment we stepped into the Airport..to the Hotels and Car rental ..everything was perfect..You can't go wrong with Maire making your arrangements..Everything was perfect.

We have had an excellent experience working with Maire Gorman. She has been extremely helpful during these stressful times of covid and ensured we had the best possible honeymoon regardless of flight delays and uncertainties. Maire helped us plan a trip better then we could have ever imagined. It truly was the trip of a lifetime. She made outstanding resort choices and planed out flawless transpiration across each destination. We had private shuttles to each resort that was timely, had friendly services, and made us feel completely safe while traveling in a foreign country. We have no complaints about the services Maire provided. We will be using her again to plan a summer trip to Scotland and will continue to recommend her to everyone looking to plan a vacation. Maire is truly fabulous and we are fortunate to have found her! Looking forward to working with her many more times in the future!

Maire was so incredibly helpful as my fiance and I planned our honeymoon to Greece. As one could imagine, COVID complicated travel, but Maire helped us every step of the way and gave us a clear picture of what our options were.

Our trip to Greece was nothing short of incredible, and Maire played a central role in helping us set up transit between islands (stops which included Mykonos, Paros, and Santorini, with flights out of Athens), amazing experiences, and all of the little details in between. We had to postpone our wedding and honeymoon for over a year due to COVID, and it was well worth the wait. I couldn't recommend working with Maire more!

Maire was so helpful in planning our last minute family getaway, we could not have done it without her help! She is highly knowledgeable in regards to travel which allows you to find the best getaway that meets your dreams. In addition she is a lovely person to work with!

Maire was amazing! She worked tirelessly to insure that we got to take our vacation even though the pandemic kept working against us.

Maire did an excellent job setting up our exciting trip to France and Spain. Maire helped us pick hotels in France and Spain along with a lovely chateau rental for the week in Southern France. Through Maire's expertise we were choosing wonderful side trips and experiences to see the sights of Paris and Barcelona and the french countryside. Unfortunately, the coronavirus had another idea and we had to cancel! When the opportunity arises for us to travel again, we will certainly be calling on Maire .

My family takes a vacation every summer and I've used many different travel agents. Maire DiDonato is head and shoulders above any other! Right from the start she worked to understand the kind of trip I was looking for, she gave me ideas, provided information and alternatives, and most of all, stayed proactive. She sent me all the travel documents well in advance, made sure I knew how to contact her while I was gone (not necessary because everything went perfectly), and then welcomed me home at the end of the trip. Her warm personality combined with top notch organizational skills make her a delight to work with. I will absolutely call her for my next vacation.

Maire never got frustrated or put off by the constant changes for a trip with 14 family members. She was professional and always had good ideas for what we could do. Everything was spelled out and I could follow all with the group without a problem.

Maire too all the stress out of planning our family vacation. It was so nice to just pick up our vouchers for everything. She found fun and interesting activities for our kids to do and included meal plans. This allowed us to sit back and enjoy our trip. She thought of everything!!!

Maire is a true pleasure to work with. This was our first time using a travel agent and she made the whole experience painless. We didn’t worry about any of the details from flights to resort and everything worked perfectly! We stayed at the beautiful Valentin Imperial in riviera maya and it was worlds better than other all inclusive’s we had previously tried! Give Maire a try and you won’t regret it!

Maire had a positive attitude about my trip from the moment I contacted her. She was available non-stop during both the planning process and during the trip itself.

Maire was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped us with our honeymoon, which we booked back in February 2020 for the Bahamas in December 2020. Of course, none of us knew a worldwide pandemic was going to hit. Maire let us know a few months before our scheduled trip that the Bahamas still weren’t open to tourists, and she immediately sent a list of resorts that were open in the Caribbean. We chose Sandals Negril, and we had an amazing time. We felt safe and the weather was lovely. Maire also helped us research COVID testing information for when we got back, as I was worried we would need to get tested ASAP and what would happen with customs. Maire helped me to not worry and reassured me all would be well, and it was!

Maire’s dedication and attention to every detail are unparalleled! She truly thinks of everything, so you can focus on the experience. Maire is expert in her field and is an absolute pleasure to work with!

Maire took care of everything for us. Very Patient and helpful.

Working with Maire was the best decision of my life. Prior to reaching out to Maire, I spent at least 2 weeks laying in bed until wee hours of the night trying to find the perfect long weekend escape for my wife and I. We have 3 young kids so we really wanted to have an adults only trip but I wasn't sure where to go. After looking at numerous cities and feeling like I was getting no where, I reached out to Maire. I told her what the budget was and the couple cities that were our favorite. Within about 48 hours Maire got back to me with several options, all in our budget! We wound up choosing the Secrets Riviera in Cancun, Mexico. Maire arranged the booking of the hotel, the flights, and even the transportation to and from. I literally just had to pay and show up. I can't thank Maire enough for all of her hard work and total transparency!

Working with Maire was a pleasure. She is so sweet and was truly interested in ensuring our trip was just right. She kept in regular touch, which was nice and confirmed our check-ins in advance for us. And, while on our trip to Ireland, we contacted Maire a couple of times just to be sure we understood a few instructions and to confirm some events. She was always available and responsive, which was amazing! Things went so well we have already recommend her to family and friends who have seen our pictures and want to visit Ireland as well.

When we were thinking of going on an Alaska cruise to celebrate our 30th anniversary, I immediately thought of calling Maire, who I had met through my networking group. Not only did her enthusiastic sparkling personality make her a pleasure to work with, but also she kept us on target with the details of our trip. Since she handled the essential bookings, it created a stress-free planning experience for us. Maire's ordering a celebration package for us in our stateroom was a nice surprise too!

Maire was great, she helped plan a wonderful trip!

Maire was excellent to work with! So responsive and approachable with ideas and feedback. This was a bucket list item for us and it was perfect!

I have always wanted to see the Grand Canyon and Maire helped make it a special occasion. It is hard to impress a 12 YR old boy, but my son absolutely loved it.

We have worked with Maire on two trips over the last few years; first, a wonderful Viking cruise to France and, this year, a planned family trip to Italy. Sadly, we had to cancel this year’s trip due to COVID-19. Maire has been wonderful to work with; very responsive and accommodating. Our trip to France was fabulous and went so smoothly due to her efforts. She had put together a wonderful trip for us to three cities in Italy. When we had to cancel, she worked with us to cancel our reservations, stayed on top of it, and we’re expecting full refunds. We’re looking forward to working with her on future travel plans!

Maire took time to understand what kind of getaway we wanted, presented us options, and kept us within our budget. She followed up with making sure we had all of our documentation beforehand. She was fantastic to work with!

Maire was just as excited as we were to plan our dream trip to Ireland. She listened to what we wanted to do and what we wanted to see and really put a lot of thought into the itinerary. She even thought of things we didn't think of and gave lots of great advice and answered every question that popped into my head.

Maire is professional , knowledgeable and Great to deal with !!

Maire was very helpful with providing a variety of options for our trip to Biltmore. We had a great time.

Maire is wonderful! She took care of EVERYTHING, was proactive in anticipating and avoiding possible issues, and resolved a problem with our airport transportation in Europe without us even knowing about it until after it was fixed. It made traveling painless and incredibly enjoyable! I spent over a year and a half trying to plan this trip myself (the trip was to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary, be the honeymoon we never had, and to celebrate major milestone birthdays for both my wife and myself) and kept banging my head against the wall, giving up, and not making it happen. One meeting with Maire, she knocked it out of the park! All we had to do was show up... the hotel was perfect, the arrangements flawless, and she let us relax and enjoy without worry!

Maire was attentive, professional, and listen to all my wishes. She answer all my questions. When my hotel at the end of the trip said my reservation was ending a day before it was suppose to, I called Maire and she answer and took care of it and I did not have to stress or do anything. She is amazing!!!
