OUR STORY
About Firefighter Getaway
We created Firefighter Getaway to share our passion for travel and to help our extended family in the Fire & EMS Communities throughout the United States. While working and volunteering in the firefighter community we came in contact with many people wanting travel information, advice and booking help. We know everyone needs a break from work to unwind and recuperate. Setting up Firefighter Getaway is a great way for us to help more people than we can reach in our local firefighter community. We love to travel and helping others to do the same is very rewarding.
