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!!!!!!!!

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.

GBDo not book tours with this company Do not book tours with this company. I, my son and his friend paid our money to visit London and Paris for a week from 9/14/19. Days before the trip, my son told me the trip was canceled. The company didn’t have the decency to let me know. Later found out, they never booked any flight, and of course they are supposed to be refunding the money within 5-15 business days.

GBOverall Good Trip Value - above average for the price.but not excellent Lodging - excellent (Athens, Santorini, Mykonos & Dubai) Guide support - outstanding in Athens; good in Santorini & Mykonos; less than satisfactory in Dubai. We had to negotiate for the bus to take the group back to the hotel, versus being left at the mall and securing our transportation. Emirates -- difficulty checking in online; not assigned a seat next to your travel partner to Athens & Dubai Emirates changed baggage policy on February 1, 2019, MV should have spearheaded a discussion with the airline to ensure no problems. Considering the fact that MV was paid long before Feb. 1st. I hold MV totally responsible for the poor seat assignments and not being willing to speak to airlines on our behalf. Finally, the travel APP would not work (or load properly) on my IPhone 7. Some in our group which did have access notice the APP was inadequate because there weren't any updates with revisions.

GBI like don't do reviews but seriously I… I like don't do reviews but seriously I have recommended Mainly to all of my friends and everyone else deserves to know just how great everything went. I literally had the best vacation of my life!!! Everything was so nice and planned so good. Ive tried diying stuff before but it ends up stressing me out and Ive done stuff like once I booked my train to go from Florence to Bologna at the wrong time so I missed it and literally cried in the station. But anyways this time NO STRESS!!!! Tours were amazing, hotels were incredible. I just can't believe how easy and nice everything and everyone was. I'm never not booking with these guys again.
