GBAbsolutely amazing!!! I was very skeptical about booking through Great Value Vacations for years. I took a chance and it was one of the best vacations that I’ve ever had. Everything was so detailed specific and laid out step-by-step. There were not any hiccups! The pick ups, departures, paperwork, itineraries were all great. Not to mention, the transportation and tour guides were all amazing.

GBI have very mixed emotions as the trip… I have very mixed emotions as the trip was amazing in all that I saw but was disappointed in the quality of some of the hotels was not good and the return flight was not very good when it was changed as far as the time it took to get home. I purchased almost all of the added excursions and some were great some were a waste of money. Provided meals were just average.

GBGreece trip with islands We did a Greece trip with islands. It was pretty good overall. The first hotel room we had wasn't great but the rest were really nice. It easier super clear on how we'd be getting our tickets and information before the trip, which was somewhat stressful, but it all worked out once we got there.

GBToo much overall time on bus that we… Too much overall time on bus that we did sine of our own side trips at our own cost (Almafi Coast for example was not making ANY stops to explore ) and delays with ferry to Sicily. Understand the delay but our tour guide was HORRIBLE at providing updates and making the delay for 37 middle age adults more enjoyable or at least manageable. We sat on the ground and steps, moving our luggage (which should have stayed in our “rooms” which were difficult for everyone) I would not recommend any ferry that is not high speed (or train). Dimitri (guide) walked around talking/yelling into his phone anytime we had a glitch… which was often and totally understandable. He also made check in at hotels and ferry chaotic and stressful. If not for the nicest people on this trip and all of us taking care of each other, it would have been a disaster. Also, too many things in too few days. Minimal 2 night stay in destinations should be the norm. Also, there were a few falls and he had no first aid kits to assist, we were running around the rest stop getting ice and antiseptic and bandages. He is arrogant, selfish and too machoism for women from US. ALSO, he obviously doesn’t like Southern Italy, maybe keep him up North, which he raves about.

GBWorth every cent! Everything was very seamless with our trip planning, we just had to print the items clearly stated by Great Value Vacation, pack our bags, and show up! It was so easy, my boyfriend and I are deciding which place to visit next!
