Punta Cana was beautiful but we did encounter a few set backs. First our hotel was not as clean as we expected, we actually had to have them remove the mattresses because there was bed bugs. The food was also extremely disappointing. Overall our experience wasn’t ideal but we made the best of it.

I booked my trip with a Great Value vacations agent because of some changes that I needed. He was very helpful, patient, and fun. I have traveled with GVV a few times and every time I receive what I was promised. Very satisfied!

My Great Value vacation to Paris France… June 2023

My Great Value vacation to Paris France was great, meaning the classy hotel, hotel location, hotel staff, excellent breakfast foods & choices! The hotel rooms were small yet, comfortable. It has a beautiful restaurant terrace lined with foliage plants & flowers coupled off with a giant chess board on deck!
The hotel is located directly across the street from a busy public park close to clothing shops, restaurants, bakery and even the post office!
I really enjoyed the 2 day passes and used them wisely to the guided Eiffel Tower, Hop-on-Hop off Bus and Sein night Cruise. (I did the Louve on my own). The passes were a very useful addition to our trip.
Taxis were quick when called to hotel. Fares can vary depending either on distance and or driver's attitude at the time. Ubers are cheaper.
FYI: Download the Google Translator and a currency exchange app!
BTW, this is my fourth (4th) trip with GVV!

Experiencing all those fabulous places in one vacation! Great Value put together historical, beautiful locations to explore both on your own and with tour guides. Since this was my first time using Great Value, I wasn't aware that a separate tour company would be used so maybe providing more information about that before a week or two before travel would be nice.

It was overall really good. 2 of the hotels were supposed to have views. They did not. But everything else went smoothly and was as advertised.

It was okay. The flight times I was given cut out a half day of the trip, the hotel in Bogota was terrible (no hot water, no heat, rude employees), and my transfer to the hotel was late.
Colombia was fantastic though. The food, culture, history, and people were are amazing. Kind of a "lesson learned" trip. I could have saved $1500 and had a much better experience if I had just planned it myself.
I can recommend Colombia, but not "Great Value" Vacations.

Trip to Dublin and Galway, Ireland June 2023
- Value 3.0

The accommodations in Dublin (Ashling Hotel) were fantastic. Hotel located very close to major train station and other public transportation. However, the Menlo Park hotel in Galway did not meet the advertised expectations (very disappointing). In the trip overview, GVV claims you'll stay at the Hardiman hotel (or a comparable hotel). The Menlo Park hotel is nowhere near the same category as the Hardiman hotel. It's like say the Holiday Inn is comparable to the Ritz. Also, GVV's overview of the Menlo Park hotel states there is live music every weekend. The Menlo Park hotel stopped music on weekends four years ago. The Menlo Park hotel was nice but fell significantly short of our expectations due to the erroneous/outdated information provided by GVV.
Overall, Dublin was a great trip, but Galway was somewhat disappointing (mostly due to GVV's inaccurate information).

They overcharged. When I wanted to change the vacation and it came very problematic. Very uncooperative when I asked speak to management no help at all. Will never use this company again.
