I'm a party of one and am hoping I get hurt and can go home early under my travel insurance. I'm currently in Greece and am counting the days until this is over.

The marketing calls and email are relentless, but after I booked and needed help with an existing…read moretrip it was crickets. They wouldn't answer questions via email and told me I had to book a scheduled call. Their calendar was full for over a week. Even at the scheduled call time I was left waiting because they didn't call me on time. The person I finally spoke to gave me incorrect information that then had to be corrected in a follow-up call. He was also late in calling for that scheduled call too and got rude when I pointed out how difficult it is to talk to anyone there. I was initially considering transferring my current deposit to another trip but after the customer service experience I decided to just cancel all together. I'm now out $749 but I guess that is better than spending thousands on a subpar trip with unhelpful people.

I went on a trip to Eastern Europe with my School and to be honest with you, I loved it but our…read moretour guide was honestly not very nice halfway through the trip, then at the end of our trip, at the airport, she got into a screaming match with one of the workers because the worker started yelling at us and telling us we need to go somewhere else and not be in that line; and you know what, our tour guide gained my respect for that. She got into a huge argument and fought for a bunch of stupid highschool kids. I would highly recommend EF tours to anyone who is young or old and doesn't know how to plan out a vacation. Thank you EF Tours for a great experience and to my tour guide, I know we may not have been great friends but you stuck up for us in the end and that is all that matters and I highly respect you for that. Can not say enough good things about my trip!

I had a very disappointing experience with EF Educational Tours customer service…read more I contacted the company two months before the deadline they imposed to request flexibility regarding my situation. Reaching out well in advance, I expected at least a conversation or some level of understanding. Instead, the response I received was rigid and dismissive. There was no empathy, no attempt to offer alternatives, and no outreach to help resolve the issue. I was simply told that I could reach out again after the tour if I still needed assistance -- which defeats the entire purpose of contacting them proactively. For a company that works with families and students on expensive international travel experiences, I expected a much higher level of customer care. If flexibility and responsive customer service are important to you, you may want to think carefully before booking with EF. Based on my experience, their policies appear to take priority over people, even when customers reach out well in advance to try to resolve an issue.

In hindsight, I should have had him show them to me. They start off wanting $8,000for the travel package, but reduce it down to $3,000. That should've been our warning not to buy! Jay will say anything to mislead you and make the sale. We took a trip to CA and I got a measly $20 off of a five day stay. Wow! I can't believe this company is allowed to get away with that. I tried to resolve it with the Laurie, the vice president, but she more or less told me "it is what it is."She said Apollo Adventures has 300,000 clients. Are they happy clients or did they get ripped off? Regardless of what they tell you, and after paying over $3000 for a fee to join and $299 annual membership fee, you can expect to receive 2%- 5% less than prices you will find online. Don't let this company scam you!

I had such a weird interaction with Annette Medina! I reached out with several destinations,…read moreflexible dates, and what I thought was a somewhat generous budget ($1500/person) and got a response simply saying "we will not be able to assist you". I wish they had told me why! Are the destinations more expensive than my budget? Are the dates unavailable? I referenced "my partner" - do they not work with same-sex couples? I also said I was open to other destinations - did they not care to look into other destinations for the dates I provided? I would have been happy to increase our budget or look into other destinations - but I guess they didn't care about offering me other options. It just seems so weird that they wouldn't want to work with me. For a company with such good reviews I'm disappointed that they don't want my business. I hope others have a better experience!

After hearing how it works, you would not be blamed for feeling like a modern day Robin Hood if you decided to go for it. Boris, the instructor, has a depth of knowledge that far exceeded my expectations and the audience he brings together is the kind of audience I think I'd like to travel with, too (aka great socializing/networking). The only reason I'm giving it 4 instead of 5 stars is because the opportunity Travel Masters presents hinges on being able/willing to take advantage of a system (credit cards and banking services) that not everyone can, wants or should take advantage of, myself included. This is a $100 class (cheaper via a daily deal), and that would have been good to know upfront before I decided to pay for the class. If there were another approach presented (legal loopholes in travel offers, points/miles arbitrage on eBay, etc), then it would have been more accessible to more people. That said, if you're able to pull this off, the information you'll get will change your life. Oh, and, an after work class during a weekday would have been soooo much more convenient than the very middle of a perfectly good Saturday, where I could have been out, um, traveling instead of sitting in a stuffy classroom all afternoon. Just saying.

It is an eye-opening experience. Personally some of the techniques I find to be completely legitimate but brushing the thin boundaries of ethical grounds. I will be implementing nearly all the techniques within my personal integrity standards (which might not be universal for all the audience). It is extremely brilliant and smart in hacking and leveraging existing loopholes of the system. And being educated about existing system is always great. But I really hope that us arbitrageurs/Smart travelers will not be incurring too great a social cost for the existing system. And every flight we take do incur carbon footprint, so all of you who seek to gain this incredible power of knowledge, use it wisely...
