Saul Tanal
President
Contact Saul

Saul was raised with a passion for travel, so it was no surprise that he would be the founder and president of a premier DMC. He is a native of Turkey who spent his college years in Michigan then decided to make the long leap south to Puerto Rico into a tourism industry venture.  Thus, Group Services, Inc. (GSI) was born! His passions include traveling, golf and great food & drink!  If he is reading, the book is probably thought provoking science fiction or an intricate cold war espionage novel. He looks forward to yearly trips to Turkey where we spend time visiting with friends, swimming, taking small road trips and eating delicious Turkish cuisine.
