TESTIMONIALS

Everyone's talking about Gael!

Dearest Gael,

I just got off the phone with my Mom and I am so green with envy that I can hardly see the computer screen. I'm the one who read East of Eden & Cannery Row and my parents reap the benefits.

I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful tour you provided my parents. These are 2 veteran travelers ( my Dad was a captain for TWA & my Mom taught overseas for years) and they just told me -bar-none- you are the most informed, most entertaining, most all-encompassing guide they ever had. I cannot wait to get up there myself and take your Steinbeck Tour.

My Dad is retired now. His lifeblood was flying. So for him to experience "Steinbeck Country" through the eyes of someone with this kind of passion...well that was just priceless. He refuses to talk on the cell phone while driving but today- he actually took the phone out of my Mohther's hand WHILE DRIVING to tell me how great the tour was. Need I say more?

It was great working with you. Your passion and enthusiasm for Monterey and the surrounding area is infectoius. The Gulf Stream Lumber Group was the direct beneficiary of your expertise.

Our women tend to be hard to please when it comes to tour guides, but they sang your praises the entire week. They marveled at your depth of knowledge of the area and your ability to get it across. Suffice it to say that you can put us down as one of your truly great supporters.

I would like to extend a most gracious thank you for your outstanding guided tour of the Monterey Peninsula and your knowledge not only of the history here but also the life in and out of our incredible ocean.

 

I have received highly praised compliments for your professional presentation, knowledge and the magnificent gift you have at sharing your knowledge.... 


Becky Blackmon, Executive Assistant-Century Aluminum



...Your knowledge of the Monterey Bay was extremely impressive. I could have listened to you for hours.

Later that day we attended a dinner at the Monterey Bay Aquarium and I heard many women enthusiastically sharing the knowledge they had learned (from you) with other members. Many of us wished you had been able to accompany us at the aquarium also.

  

Renee Hoffer, CGAA President

 


As promised, I take pen in hand to let you know how much my wife and I enjoyed your presentation. You know your Steinbeck. Your blending of his work into the region's history was superb. It certainly brought added life to the information imparted to us.....

You're the best 

What a wonderful experience the Mississippi Bankers had on the Monterey Peninsula thanks to you. Your kind spirit and outstanding knowledge was a perfect combination for the success of our group.

My personal thanks for the information and support you gave before (and during) our trip[.

 

Becky Corkern, Regional Director World Wide Travel

 


On behalf of Mrs. Riley P Bechtel and the Bechtel Corporation's Board of Counselors, please allow me to express our thanks for the thoroughly knowledgeable and enjoyable tours experienced in conjunction with our group's event last month. As usual, your presentations were the epitomes of professionalism and downright fun!

 

Vicki Stewart, Manager, Protocol Services, Bechtel Group, Inc.

 

 

You need to know that most of the younger people in our family thought your tour was the highlight of their weekend in Carmel...even better than the catered dinner at the Villa or their visit to the aquarium. The older people were no slouches either in expressing how much they enjoyed the morning. Thank you very much for opening up to us the unique flora and fauna of Pt Lobos.

 

Eileen Laspo, SF (family reunion)

   


...please allow me to express our appreciation to you in creating the experience they enjoyed last week. It was an absolutely perfect event, memorable in every way thanks in part to the tours of PG & Monterey. Please accept our sincere compliments to you for your special efforts in making the experience such a wonderful memory.

 

I would also like to commend you on your attention to detail and the overall professionalism you consistently display throughout our dealings with you. In short, we could not have been more pleased.

 

Michelle Burnett, House manager, Bechtel Group, Inc.

 

Just wanted to thank you again for the terrific tour along the 17 Mile Drive... and our walk along Cannery Row. You were most informative and gave us enough history to make the drive come alive and showed your love for the aquarium through that part of the tour.

 

As a docent who gives many tours to our governor's mansion here in Raleigh, and a summer volunteer at 2 tourist attractions on our Carolina coastline, I really appreciate all you put into your tours, talks and presence before our group.

 

My favorite is the MBA and I learned some things this trip I don't remember from my '94 trip. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, for being well informed, and for showing your concerns for our environment and your state. I loved every minute of it.

 

Linda Wooten, Raleigh, NC
