Travel Tip: “Whenever I travel abroad, I like to venture off the beaten path to really immerse myself in the culture of the country I’m in. While top choice tourist destination are great because they check off those bucket list items of a certain place, they just tend to be much more crowded and I find it more relaxing to take a step back and hang out with the locals.”

Lynne A. Schmidt

Favorite Destination: “Grand Cayman Island in the Cayman Islands is my favorite Island in the Caribbean. Clear water for diving/snorkeling, beautiful white sand beaches, plus excellent dining and shopping. Don’t miss “Stingray City”, a sandbar in the middle of the North Sound where you can swim and feed the friendly Southern Rays!”

Donna Wellworth

Favorite Destinations: “Bermuda is my favorite place. It has friendly people, it’s easy to get around, and has wonderful beaches.  I also love Hawaii, specifically Waikiki on the coast of Oahu. I love swimming in the ocean in the morning, then exploring the island in the afternoon. Check back with me after I cruise with Princess in October to Ireland and British Isles. Can’t wait!”

Judi Franken, Orlando Theme Park Specialist

• (518) 426-1000 ext. 2112
• [email protected]

Travel Tip: “When choosing a theme park vacation, planning is the most important part of your trip! Most theme parks are big and lots of walking is involved. Make a list of what you would like to do and prioritize. I like to check to see what special occasions (parties, festivals, and shows) may be going on during the year and pick my time to go around them. I find that preparing for any kind of weather makes for better trip. Remember, you can’t do everything . Plan out mealtimes and rest; adults and children both need breaks.”

Lindsey Leimonas

Favorite Destination: “One of my favorite places to go is the Bahamas. There is so much to see and do, between shopping and sightseeing. Don’t forget about the adventures at Paradise Island!”

Jennie Koncewicz

• (518) 426-1000 ext. 2108

Favorite Destination: “My favorite destination is Italy. The country is rich in world history and architecture, not to mention the unique and fabulous food and wine throughout the diverse regions of the country-a foodies delight!! If time is limited, three must see city visits are Rome, Florence and especially Venice – a city surrounded by water in a lagoon in the Adriatic Sea. La Bella Vida!!!”

Keith DiStefano

• (518) 426-1000 ext. 2107
• [email protected]

Travel Tip: “ One of the first things I like to do when I get to a new destination is take a walk or even go for a run. It is a great way to familiarize yourself with the surrounding area. I’ve come across many stores, coffee shops, restaurants and attractions to enjoy that I almost certainly would have missed otherwise.”

Bonnie Barba

• (518) 426-1000 ext. 2111

Travel Tip: “I try and go somewhere new every year so I can’t say I have a favorite place. My one rule has always been if we can get it at home or eat there, we pick somewhere else—-usually local like a farmer’s market or a local shop, an Irish pub. Make a list of what you don’t want to forget (especially passport, meds and expensive chargers) and pack those in a carry-on if you’re flying. Anything you may have forgotten can be purchased. Also split clothes with the other person traveling with you in case one suitcase goes somewhere else. Remember—you’re on vacation, enjoy it and don’t let minor things wreck it for you.”

Cindy worked with us to plan our dream trip to Italy for our anniversary. She recommended tours and hotels, but let us choose what we wanted. We stayed in boutique hotels in Venice, Florence and Rome. Very accommodating. She also arranged our transportation to and from the airports and trains between cities. Because Cindy took the time, our trip was stress free and we had a beautiful time. We will definitely use McGeary's travel again.

We added on to a Hawaii trip with our friends. All Cindy had to do was duplicate their reservation other than the airline tickets since we are traveling to and from Florida. Our friends are traveling from Upstate NY. Seems pretty simple I thought.... First she gives the airline my wrong DOB for TSA, the airline couldn't change it since the ticket was purchased wholesale and they have to change it. First stop was Kano - no issues. Next stop was Kauai when we get to the hotel we were told our reservation was for the dates we were in Kona and listed as NO SHOW.. Thank God they were able to find a room for us but we had to use our credit card and hope we get a refund. then we had snorkel & sail trip scheduled for a date two weeks from the time we were there. On to our final stop Honolulu only to find out we were booked in different hotels from our travel friends. Thank God for the Mgr who got us a room. Again using our CC hoping for a refund. Lastly our return flight had us going to Newark than Florida. Couldn't change that either - sorry don't believe that. Pretty pathetic. All we got was I'm sorry. I wouldn't use this company to reserve me a movie ticket...Nightmare

Cindy helped us plan a family trip to Greece. There were 8 of us and it was a trip of a life time! Every detail was thought out and the entire trip was seamless. We did Athens, Mykonos and Santorini. Cindy planed everything from the airlines, transport from island to island, special activities, dinner and hotels that were top notch! I would not hesitate to use McGearys travel for our next trip. She went above and beyond!

This was the worst experience ever. We have never had a travel company or travel agent (Cindy Mckeehan was our contact) treat us the way this company did. A family vacation for 16 people that cost us thousands, yes thousands, of dollars more because of the number of mistakes they made. And every time we called for help, they would say they don't have time. This review would be too long if I wrote out all the things did wrong so one example will do - they cancelled or somehow removed one of the reservations, a family of 5, hotel room and plane. They weren't able to fix it without it costing US thousands of dollars and hours of headaches trying to get them to get our reservation fixed. To make matters worse, they didn't even confirm that our children would be near us on the plane. We spent more hours and money getting them next to us on the way there but the airline said that the travel agent would have to fix it on the way back or else they would have to charge us (another $250.00). so we reached out to them for help and she just would not help us at all. My husband spent countless hours on vacation going back and forth with them but they didn't care and didn't fix it for us. we wound up 20 rows away from our children on the flight home! NEVER use them! We've had excellent experiences with other travel agencies, if anyone needs a recommendation let us know but save yourself the money and emotional exhaustion of using this place.

We've traveled with McGeary's for many years. Cindy has always listened to what we were looking for and found us some amazing hotels and tours in Mexico and in Europe. She has been there for us when we needed to change our plans to get back home for a sick relative. Cindy helped me rebook a flight home after I tested Covid positive and had to delay my return to the US until I recovered. I highly recommend McGeary's Travel.

Cindy at McGeary's has booked several trips for us over the years and has never steered us wrong. She is so helpful and efficient and has given us excellent recommendations for restaurants, etc. as well as where to stay. Her customer service is top notch. Highly recommend.
