we booked this well in advance with the… we booked this well in advance with the request for a King size bed. When we arrived they said that wouldn't be possible due to a third party booking ,but would give us two queen size beds. The room we got wasn't even two queen beds but two twin size beds. The resort wasn't full and I think they could have accommodated us, but because of the third party booking thru Great Value Vacations, they weren't willing to help us.

Best Trip We had a lovely vacation. We traveled to London, Paris, Lucerne & several destinations in Italy (12 day trip). It could not have gone better. We had a great tour director (George) who could not have been more organized & pleasant. He made sure everyone enjoyed themselves & was easy to work with. He answered any questions & always went over details multiple times to make sure everyone understood. This was our first tour with a group & we could not have been happier. The trip was well planned out.

All in one planning It was helpful to make all our reservations (air/car/accommodations) from one central site. This was our 4th trip through GVV and very happy with them all. With one exception. Due to a death in the family, we had to move our recent trip to Ireland back a week. Having purchased travel insurance for unexpected situations such as this, we were surprised to find out the airlines charged $199/per person to move our flight back a week and we were unable to use the GVV discount code on our new reservation. It was helpful the GVV representative was able to reduce the airline fee to $150/per person. Would still book with GVV for future travels.

Satisfactory Did not like the choice and location of some hotels, at Rome, and Tropea, since they were away from city center. The Ferry ride to Sicily was not as expected.. The Gelato experience was good. The dinners provided did not represent the traditional good pasta/sauces and foods of Italy.

Worth 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!
