GBI took a trip to Bali with Best Single⦠I took a trip to Bali with Best Single Travel in January 2020. It was my first trip with the company and I was very satisfied. I was extremely worried when I missed my connecting flight in Dubai and was 14 hours late meeting up with the rest of the group, but a quick call to the local guide and I was still picked up at the airport and brought to the hotel where I met up with my fellow travelers. There were a few places on the itinerary that I would have preferred to skip, but I had enough free time to take myself to a couple of other places that I wanted to see but weren't on the itinerary. I would gladly travel with Best Single Travel again. Indeed, I had registered for 2 trips back to back that had to be altered due to the pandemic and when I decided that I didn't want to deal with the changes, my deposit was cheerfully and rapidly refunded. As far as roommates go, mine was fine, very consider about sharing the space, but like with all people, I imagine it is hit or miss.

GBEuropean Highlights Cruise I just returned from a 10 day 9 port cruise offered through Best Single Travel. The trip/ports were wonderful and the people I met were great. The praise stops there. Three days prior to leaving the US, we received our final itinerary which was vague enough to allow for last minute changes. Most ports were unguided walking tours. Ultimately the promised private locally guided tours were primarily hop on/hop off busses, local or taxi transportation, and a lot of walking....including a few 30 minute walks to meet our local 2-3 hour walking tour guide. One guided tour was in fact a free chamber of commerce tour with 40 others from our ship. (The tour/guide was great, however we paid for private tours...where did that money go?). Myself and most of the others on this trip were actually traveling on credit from prior covid cancelations....it certainly felt like we got the cheap tours because the money was already spent....However, based on other reviews (on other sites), it seems that wasn't the case, but rather how this company operates. NCL is an awsome cruise line that caters to solo travelers....so next time, book solo and take part in the ships excursions!

GBGreat trips For people who need Someone to Travel With. Great trips that include planned excursions, group activities and like-minded new friends. I've enjoyed each trip I've been on.

GBAwful The woman who runs this company has no idea what she's doing. She assigned a young girl who had never traveled before to be the leader of our group. She's cursed in communication. She's said on the phone, I can't work on that now, I'm eating my Chinese food delivery. You want a professionally run trip? You want a bit of class and finesse? Stay clear of this company. It's the absolute bottom of the barrel. It is so funny that the owner of the company replied that my post is FAKE. No! It's not fake. It's a real post and it states the facts. Using a term like FAKE post tells you a lot about her. You don't like something, therefore it's FAKE! The shame is that a woman like the owner of this company can post trips, take other people's money and not have the faintest idea what she's doing! She can claim my post is not authentic if it suits her. But, believe me, it is extremely authentic. ______ Stating facts is a rant? Denial is the easy way out. Denial and capitalizing fake. Facts are facts, no matter how much one tries to deny it. You can edit your post to include more denials. But the facts remain as stated above.
