Scam alert. We…read moreattended the 90 minute presentation "how to save money on travel" to get 2 free plane tix. We had no intention of buying whatever they were selling - we know how to travel cheaply. We entered a nondescript office with no permanent sign, a trashy sales agent started off the presentation by asking everyone where their ultime DREAM destination, money no object, would be. The 1st couple said Aruba (whoa, dream big). We said Maldives and the woman, who said she was a travel agent, had no idea where that was. Then she went around the room and asked each couple how much they thought the dream trip would cost. Aruba people said $6k for 7 days. Are you kidding me? Our 14 day trip to South Africa will be around that! The the pitch begins. Global Travel is not a timeshare, it a full service travel agency that provides week long stays at 5-star resorts and condos for $119 in the US and $189 international. They have thousands around the world! Of course, when you ask for specifics they tell you that the inventory changes so much they can't guarantee anything. They said they have tons of properties in Florida, Hawaii, Cancun, etc. But even if you can't take advantage of the low weekly rate at a condo, the full-service travel agency can get you 50% off hotels around the world plus 30-40% off flights and car rentals and cruises! So after an hour about how awesome this is, they finally get down to cost. $14,900 gets you membership FOR LIFE (passed on to your kids, and grandkids). $189 is the on-time processing fee, and $389 is the yearly "activity fee". If you don't book a trip that year, you don't pay. Of course, if you only book one, that $389 could cancel out any savings. You get 2 peak weeks at the weekly $119/189 rate plus 2 off-peak weeks, booked 2-4 months in advance. You also get 2 last minute weeks at the weekly rate that cost an additional $200 to book. So we're sitting there, clearly not going to do this, but watching all the people who are eating this up. We fill out our survey with info on us I'm assuming this is so they can give us their pitch on how we can save tons, so I pick our next trips to places I highly doubt they have properties, like Russia and Laos. So then we get paired up with an agent and go to the sales room where there's a "tiki-hut" and blaring music (so you can't hear the deal the table next to you is getting). Then they announce that because this is the anniversary of this particular office (really, then why don't you even have a sign?) the price is going to roll back to what is was in 1989 - just $11,900. After another 10 minutes they annouce that the first two people to sign up can take an additional $1000 off (all the agents "wow" and clap like this is so unheard of). Our agent starts the pitch by telling us all about him and then asking all about us. We immediately say we're not intrested because, while the premise is sound, it doesn't fit our style of travel. We never stay in one place for a whole week (so if we wanted to use all 4 weeks to stay in 4 places internationally over a week or so, it would be $800. We only spent $700 for 10 days in Spain!) and we HATE large resorts/megahotels. Sales guy continues to pitch, we continue to say no. He shows us pictures of more resorts, we say "okay, nice, but we're not interested". He tries to show us how much money would could save on our upcoming South Africa trip by going with them - MY trip actually comes out cheaper! Finally he says he needs to bring his manager over for our official decline. Manager comes over and pitches some more, and then says they may have another plan that could work for us. It's only $4500 for the membership to get one peak week and one off-peak week. We say no, he says if we just put $100 down we can get started now. We say no, he and sales guy excuse themselves. Sales guy comes back with a folded piece of paper and and says manager told him not to open it. We open it and it says $2500 on it. Sales guy is all "wow, I've never seen that deal before!". Manager comes back and talks all about how low this price is and just $100 will get us started. We say no again, now put off by the desperation. Sales guy whips out our "free gift", the 2 free plane tickets that are LOADED with so many hoops it becomes clear we will never use them and practially pushes us out the door. Don't make the same mistake we did to try to get free tickets. There's always a catch and you'll have to deal with these smarmy sales guys. I feel bad for the gullible people who get suckered and and lose money, but come on people. How naive can you be?

Moonrings was first referred by my wedding coordinator a few years ago and we've used them for…read moretrips after our honeymoon as well. Don't let the name fool you, they do more than just honeymoons. They are a full fledged travel agency. The staff does go to many of the places the recommend so it's not just blind recommendations. We used them because with all the efforts going into the wedding, we didn't want to have to worry about the details about a honeymoon as well. We wanted to go to Hawaii and worked with Miriam Geiser. We did a 7 or 8 day trip to Oahu and Maui. Miriam helped gather the details for flights and hotels. We gave her a budget and she would stick to it. Honestly, if you're looking for a low budget type of trip, I would not use them, not because they can't work with you but being catered towards honeymoons and the like, they work with more high end hotels and services and have more experience with those places. They work with mostly 3+ star hotels. More like 4-5 star hotels though. Moonrings and Miriam did an amazing job with our honeymoon. We got detailed information and everything was set. All we had to do was follow their guide they gave us and we had a stress free honeymoon. They have some amazing recommendations on food and activities. A lot of the time, the staff has personally been there so they can vouch for it. Because we had such a great experience, we used them again when we visited Chicago. Being based out of Chicago, Miriam was able to give us a "bucket list" type of trip and give us a lot of good recommendations on food. Chicago is an amazing place. We had a great 3 day trip. If you're thinking of heading outside the US, they also have that covered too! As an anniversary/big trip, my wife and I wanted to go to Europe. We contacted Miriam again and they were able to give us another detailed trip to Italy and Spain. Miriam took care of the Italy portion and we worked with her colleague, Kevin, on the Spain side. Moonrings will let you talk with their experts for each city. They could have easily just had Miriam handle the whole thing and gather data for us about Spain, but they go the extra step to make sure they give you the best information they can. Not only is the itinerary detailed and spelled out, they also have your back when things aren't looking good... While in Rome, there happened to be a workers' strike, which would cause us to have to change our plans of visiting the Colosseum. Without us saying anything, Miriam had found out from her sources about this strike and went looking to see if she could get the tickets refunded or any alternatives. In Spain, we were not able to reconfirm a reseravation to a restaurant and the restaurant called Kevin. He told them to hold the table and emailed us to see if we were still going to make it. Because I got sick, I wasn't able to make the reservation, let him know, and he took care of it. Thanks Moonrings.

You would think she was a local based on the amount of knowledge she had about each of our destinations. We will definitely be using Miriam and MoonRings again on our next vacation.

Some trips that they offer are the Eastern & Western Europe, Italy, Hawaii, South Korea, U.S. points of interests, and even cruises. My parents went on the 10-day Eastern Europe trip, which included visiting Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary - they enjoyed it very much, as the group was maintained in small numbers and super intimate; the tour guide gave great descriptions and information; the hotels were 4- and 5-star accommodations that were super clean and comfortable; all points of main attractions as well as points of interests were included; the tour bus shuttled everyone without a glitch and was driven safely; and, there was some time included for travelers to go do some independent exploring. Sharp Travel is also quick in responding and are very informative - they're more than open to discuss travel options with you, as well as to make customizations. I was looking into booking some vacationing spots for my parents within the next year and I've noticed that the prices are extremely competitive compared to others, as well as the variety of travel destinations to choose from! The owners are a husband-and-wife team, and they are super sweet and really care about making sure that everyone has a great experience. I highly recommend in checking Sharp Travel out - it can be a great gift for parents and grandparents! +local Korean travel agency +great tour guides +clean and luxurious accommodations +variety of travel destinations +friendly owners!
