We spent weeks trying to book our own European travel online, and after weeks of stress fortune…read moresmiled upon us when we met Margaret while renewing our daughters passport. She eased our concerns, and shouldered the burden of making arrangements for the four of us to spend 3 weeks in Europe. She was efficient and provided us as many options as we wanted. We were able to book a Magical multi-destination vacation starting with a week in Paris, and 2 weeks in Italy. As a family of four, we needed larger accommodations; and her recommendations were spot on. The hotels she recommended in Paris and Florence were beyond our expectations. I can't imagine what our vacation would have been without the support of our new friend. I will never attempt to travel again without the support of We Gotta Travel.

When booking a trip for Hawaii I decided why not use a travel agent. I called AAA Travel and…read moreMargaret at We Gotta Travel. AAA never even called me back. Margaret answered the phone right away. I am not easy to deal with in that I change my mind a lot. The more I talked with Margaret about the trip, the more changes I made. She always said no problem and got back to me right away with pricing and info. When she said she would follow up with me, she always called right on time. There was a HUGE mistake that she thankfully caught. I gave her flight times and dates that I wanted to take an inter-island flight. We were staying two nights on one island but the flight dates I sent her allowed for only one night. Margaret caught my mistake and called right away to verify this with me. If I had been booked like I had asked it would have created a major problem for me. So, she really saved the day for me. She met in person to drop off my tickets and info and followed up after the trip to see how everything was. There is no extra cost to use a travel agent and it saved me a lot of time and money using her. Highly recommended!

I went to the presentation out of curiosity -- who doesn't like a freebie? I liked the idea of a…read morefree trip and hotel stay. Plus my folks have timeshares, and I have a good view of them, so what the heck. 90 minutes of my time, here you go. I liked that I didn't have to go to the spiel while I was on vacation, I could get it out of the way first. The experience was fine. The place is pleasantly decorated and comfortable, with free soda, coffee, and cookies. They had Jimmy Buffet music playing at a well-placed volume - not too loud, while providing a nice vacationy undertone. First you talk to one of the sales people for a survey of your travel habits and such (my fellow Brad was very friendly), then you go in for the power point presentation and overall sales pitch (by Johnny). All of it was just fine and truthfully the program sounds great. The presentation didn't drag and I appreciated that. Afterwards you go back to your individual table with your original salesperson. Of course, the "today only" deal is the only deal worth your time, which is how it's designed. (i.e. today's deal is good for a lifetime and is willable to your heirs, the "anytime" deal expires after 10 years, plus other stuff.) The price points for the "platinum" and "gold" levels are $8000 and $6000. I declined nicely and truthfully. Then a manager comes over and says there's a lower tier not on the flyer, which is $3000. I declined. Then you're led to a different one-on-one table with someone else who gives you your gift. She offered me a last and cheapest deal, the gold level for a two year trial for $1000. (the one-time registration fee and annual membership fee bring it to a total of $1500.) The prices freeze at their current level, and you can upgrade at any time without losing any of the "today only" special dealios. Nice. But again I turned it down, and was politely escorted out to freedom. I've been to two timeshare presentations similar to this in the past, so was expecting the type of hard sell put into practice once they have you sitting there. I can honestly say that this easily ranks as the most pleasant out of all three experiences. Everyone was polite if not friendly, and no one tried to make me feel like a can of dog turd for saying no. An important distinction is that this is not a timeshare program - it is a "travel club," or something like that. I surmise they make their money from the initiation-like membership fees and the $299 annual fee, then purport to pass along the wholesale travel price to you for some high quality resorts and hotels and such. They are a travel agency without the massive markup. And if the prices quoted in the presentation are the real deal, they are indeed fabulous prices. If you travel, and the deals are real, the membership $$ could very easily be worth the investment. So honestly, the pitch appealed to me. Because I was there alone without my husband (something they don't like you to do) they'd let me call back today for the better packages. So I hopped online to see what the internets says. Unfortunately, all I've found beside this page and its two reviews are a bunch of ripoff sites where people complained about the excess of fees and limits associated with the "free" gifts. ...Which is true. The gifts don't appear to be "free". I still have to really look into mine to decide what I can or can't do with it. So I'm not going to call them back today. However, I like the idea of the program. It does sound like the "next generation of timeshares" where they "kept all the good parts". If I could have found any review online that backed up what I'd be buying, my decision might have been different. Although this company has been around since 1997, maybe their business model is still too new. Dunno. I feel like the other reviewer who compared the program to Costco (a good analogy, one they actually used during the presentation), who was looking for a reliable reference to vouch for it all. Lacking that, I just don't feel comfortable plunking down my money. If this business model lasts, I'm sure Worldwide won't be the only one out there selling it, and maybe I'll buy one down the road, after I have some more to go on.

They are scammers. Be careful! They have only one star! If you are looking for the money you…read morepaid for, be careful! They took $5000 from our family. I was unable to connect with them during chemotherapy. They could have cared less! Check out what others have experienced, on line.
