GBGreat value for the price Great value for the price, air, hotels, transportation and tours. Had some minor issues with land tour operators as they used independent local tour operators and the information they received did not always coordinate with what Mainly gave them. The full day local tour guides were great. The only major problem was they gave us the wrong pick up time at the hotel for the Dhow Dinner cruise in Dubai and we waited in the hotel lobby for over 2 1/2 hours! Overall the itinerary and tours were done well.

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.

GBFraud Fraud! DO NOT BOOK WITH MAINLY VACATIONS. reference a previous post by the Gummos....brain John's never booked our trip to the almalfi coast. Leaving 11 people stranded at the lamezia train station...no vouchers no hotel reservations no transfers. We called hotels and verified he never made the reservations. Never sent documents in his travel app. Tried to blame It on our "group leader" however kathy and randy did contact him to find out why we never recieved info. We did. Ot change the reservation or request cancellation....he never made the reservations.....we are now collecting names of others to formulate a class action law suit.....DO NOT BOOK WITH MAINLY VACATIONS OR BRIAN JOHN

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.
