About Me

Lisa on Bora Bora, Great Escapes Travel

Ia Ora Na!Evoke a wonderful state of mind in the tranquility of a Tahiti Vacation.

My experience in traveling to French Polynesia and have personally experienced sailing on the Paul Gauguin offers my clients inside access and personalized service to create the most of their luxury cruise.

I know the services, accommodation types and prime locations of the resorts on each of the islands and can match you to the right resorts and islands to bring your dream vacation to life. 

Turquoise waves crashing into colorful reefs that protect the bright warm emerald lagoons and soft white coral sand beaches. This combination of lagoons and soaring mountain peaks that rise out of the water with majestic views make for pristine tranquil beauty to surround yourself with. Tropical year round water and air temperatures around 80 with ample sun and enough rain to keep waterfalls flowing and flowers blooming.

Savor the romance and idyllic beauty of Bora Bora in an overwater bungalow. Enjoy the comfort and sounds while sleeping above soothing lagoon waters. There is so much more to a Tahiti vacation or cruise. Set sail in the South Pacific aboard a luxurious small ship or yacht. Island hop from one resort to another and discover the islands characteristics, geography and charm. Tahiti is the large island in the Society Island Archipelago but there are many other islands you will want to discover. Bora Bora, Moorea, Huahine, Raiatea and Tahaa.

These remarkable French Polynesia islands offer as much or as little do do as you choose. Snorkel in crystal clear calm lagoon warm waters with brightly colored fish that eat right from your hand. See giant manta rays as they glide on by. Dive and experience the density of marine life. Lagoon cruises, wave runners, private beach motu picnics, shark and ray safaris, helicopter sightseeing, outrigger canoe excursions, ATV's, hiking and more.

An 8 hour flight from Los Angeles and the same time zone as Hawaii. With daily nonstop travel between Los Angeles and Papeete Tahiti, it is closer than you imagine.

Lisa made our trip stress free!
Reviewed By Janette - Harrisville, UT | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
Lisa is absolutely the best! I was a little nervous about using a travel agent (from a past experience, different agent), but Lisa made our trip special. She took care of everything we needed for our trip to Europe, and I 100% recommend Great Escapes, and I will be using this resource in the future for sure. Lisa was aware of our needs that we never thought of, and really made our trip stress free. I cannot thank her enough!

Lisa made our vacation feel effortless
Reviewed By L.Laskey - Cedar City, UT | Traveled to Hawaii ~ USA
I can't thank you enough, Lisa, for the beautiful planning you did for us. You made our vacation feel effortless. The packets and brochures gave us step by step instructions and people to contact while we were in beautiful Hawaii. The balance between scheduled events and free time was perfect! I hiked my legs off, not regretting a moment of it. The water falls were absolutely beautiful and the trails to them were incredibly lush. Our helicopter ride made me speechless! There is no better feeling or site than to be in the air looking down over multiple colored waters and plants. Unbelievably breathtaking! If I had anything to do differently I would spend a full week at each island; O'ahu & Maui, to give myself a little more time for sun bathing. Thank you!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

I highly recommend using Lisa at Great Escapes
Reviewed By T.Jennings - Utah | Traveled to France ~ Europe
Lisa at Great Escapes Travel is amazing. Having never used a travel agent before I was reluctant to make the call but I am so glad I found Lisa. My family was traveling to France and Spain and I wanted some help but also the freedom of doing what we wanted. Lisa was great at finding beautiful hotels in the perfect areas. Lisa arranged all the details to make our family trip magical, stress free and under budget. She found places of interest to stop and visit along the way that ended up being some of our favorite adventures. Lisa also added in some fun ideas I would never have thought of, one of them being a bike trip around Versailles with a picnic lunch, which was a highlight of our trip. Lisa had directions for the places we needed to go to and pictures which were surprisingly helpful. It was the little details of her going beyond the expected that I really appreciated. I highly recommend using Lisa at Great Escapes and can not wait until she can plan another adventure for us.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Reviewed By Tiffany - St. George, UT | Traveled to Europe
I absolutely loved working with Lisa with Great Escapes! She made planning our 10 year Anniversary Europe trip such a pleasure! She is so knowledgeable and passionate about traveling, she made it so fun to plan our trip. She customized our tours to our likes and gave us so many ideas of what to do, we were able to do so much more than what we could have planned for ourselves. I wasn't nervous or anxious about traveling or where we were staying because it was sooo incredibly well organized and planned out. I will definitely be using Great Escapes again!
