GBPlan on Using Them Again Soon My sister and I used Mainly Vacation to visit Greece and Dubai. Brian called us before our trip and informed us that the tour before us had problems with the local tour company so they were going to use a different local company. We were picked up at the airport as planned and taken to our hotel. I could tell that Mainly Vacations was working out some bugs with the new local company, but we were kept informed the entire time. We received everything that we paid for. We had a great time in Athens, Santorini and Mykonos. In fact, we plan on going back next year. Because of the problems experienced with the new tour company, Brian upgraded us to the Fairmont Hotel in Dubai. It was spectacular. We're planning on doing the Croatia cruise with Mainly Vacation in the very near future.

GBBest customer service ever! Our trip to Rome, Sorrento, and the Amalfi coast was full of beauty, fun. Adventure, and fabulous food. Mainly vacations put together the most wonderful tours, along with free time at each location. We had some challenges on our trip such as a cancelled flight, and a change in our tour group size, but everything was managed and compensated for by our contact. Brian John, who kept in touch the entire trip and helped where needed. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who wants to see the South of Italy, and learn about the history and geography of the area.

GBDON'T DO IT!!!! If I coul take the whole experience back .. I would . I booked a trip to the Amalfi coast with Brian John who did nothing but scam us. We absolutely were recommended to Mainly Vacations from another friend.. but believe me that was NOT our experince. We got on a train to Naples with fake tickets, and only to find out with absolute confirmation with each of the hotels that we were to stay.. that reservations were never made. Brian John did not book our trip like we had commisssioned him to do. I have in my possession every piece of confirmation that supports that he did not do what he was paid to do.i will make it my mission to help other travelers not to make this same mistake, Do Not Book With BRIAN JOHN!!!!!!!!

GBAegean Vacay My experience was great. This was my first time going to Greece as well as taking a cruise. The vacation package I selected from Mainly Vacations was very accommodating. From the time my family, friends and I arrived in Athens we were greeted by friendly and hospitable people. From the hotel staff Athenian Callirhoe hotel to the Celestyal Cruise crew felt welcome.The tour guides were very informative. I was able to gain so much knowledge on Greek culture on my brief stay. I will definitely book with Mainly Vacations again.

GBI just finished reading the reviews… I just finished reading the reviews posted against Mainly Vacations and almost every one written is exactly the same problem I experienced, We booked a trip in Sept. 2018 for Italy in July 2019. Three weeks before the trip when I had not yet received any paperwork about the trip although been told numerous times all flights were arranged, I was finally told the trip was cancelled as it was a small group tour and 12 other passengers cancelled. We, too, were offered the independent tour but as we are in our 70s and taking our 12 year old granddaughter, we did not feel comfortable doing this. According to the terms and conditions, our deposit and final payment would be refunded. We received our final payment but have not yet received the $1,200 deposit. I have been told many times, that it would be coming. I have filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau with the hopes of getting my money back. Although their tours sound interesting, I would not trust this company to make it happen.
