      • About Getaway Vacations

        Every day my goal is to ensure our guests are treated to the best motorcoach travel experiences in the industry. When I created Getaway Vacations, I chose to offer premium travel, not discount adventures. If you choose to vacation with us I am confident you will see us the same way. Our motorcoaches are simply top-of -the line luxury including plush leather seats, multiple on-board entertainment options and those little touches like complimentary bottled water, pull-down shades and footrests.

         

        Our tours also provide a great opportunity to stay active, socialize and make new friends.
         

        When you arrive at our destinations, we have you at only 3+ star accommodations or better and waterfront locations whenever possible. Our tour managers are 100% committed to one thing and one thing only - your enjoyment. Thank your for taking the time to read about Getaway Vacations and I am always available to discuss any questions you may have about our company.

        Wayne Adrian, President - Getaway Vacations

        Adventure Awaits

        We offer everything from four day mini-vacations to month long adventures for the traveller in you to immerse into 'life on the road'. We explore bucket list points of interest that deserve to be seen for the first time, or seen again.

      • FAQ

        "The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page."

        -Saint Augustine

        What amenities are in your motor coaches?

        ANSWER

        Our motor coaches are modern and luxurious with spacious leather seating and extra leg-room similar to first-class seats on an aircraft. You can expect Wi-Fi as well as a DVD player and 110 outlets. Most importantly, our coaches are climate controlled for your utmost comfort, and have fully equipped washrooms.

        Will you provide me with information on the sights along the way?

        ANSWER

        Yes. We have an experienced Tour Director on board who will fill you in on all the important sights along the way. They will also assist with information and arrangements for other excursions not part of your tour. We are happy to help with anything that will make your trip more enjoyable. Just ask us.

        How long have your drivers been in the business?

        ANSWER

        Our drivers are well-seasoned and have been taking care of travelers for over 30 years. The routes for our trips are very familiar routes to our crew.

        Can I make requests for a specific hotel floor?

        ANSWER

        Definitely. We will make sure that the hotel is aware of any specific needs that you have and they will do their best to accommodate.

        Are you able to accommodate my food allergies?

        ANSWER

        Absolutely! Please make us aware of any food allergies that you have. We can make sure that restaurants are aware where meals are included.

        I have difficulty carrying my luggage, can you help with that?

        ANSWER

        Yes we can! Each guest is allowed one bag and when available, we take care of loading and unloading your luggage for you, and ensure it is delivered to your hotel room. Please note: This amenity may not be available at all hotel locations.

        Can you give me a specific itinerary for the trip?

        ANSWER

        Each guest will be provided with an itinerary upon boarding

        Will we be stopping for several nights in one city or do we pack and move everyday?

        ANSWER

        One of the reasons our guests love our trips is that every trip has multi-night stays so you can unpack and relax. Usually we stop at the major cities for at least 2 nights and up to 5 nights. We can give you information about your specific trip so that you will see how many nights you stay in each city.

        Is every day totally planned for me?

        ANSWER

        We strike a balance between leisure time and planned tours so that you have time to enjoy what you prefer. If you would like to take in a sight that is not on the tour, we will try to arrange it for you. If possible, we will organize a group so that you can take advantage of a discount as well.

        What is your cancellation policy?

        ANSWER

        We want you to be certain about considering Getaway Vacations for your travel plans. Book your spot on any of our upcoming trips with no deposit required, until we are able to guarantee the trip will be taking place. Once we reach our required number of passengers on a trip, we can guarantee it is a go! At that point, a deposit of $250 is required to reserve your spot. All payments are non-refundable.

         

        We suggest all guests purchase Trip Cancellation insurance. If paying by credit card, this may be a benefit already offered through your credit card company. Since COVID-19 hit the travel industry so hard, hotel cancellation policies have changed drastically, which have affected our operations.

         

        FORMS OF PAYMENT ACCEPTED: Debit, Cheque, E-transfer, Cash, Credit Card

        Do I need travel insurance in place prior to my trip?

        ANSWER

        We suggest you consider travel insurance in case something happens during or before your trip. Some providers are Blue Cross, AMA and RBC. There are many others you can contact to request a quote.

        How do I pay?

        ANSWER

        We will gladly accept all forms of payment: Cash, Cheque, E-Transfer, Credit Card. A 3% Surcharge will be applied to all credit card transactions. GST will be added to all trips, when applicable.
