Review of Vacation Tour and Travel

Very manipulative advertising. They claim you pay an upfront cost and get a 3 day trip and a free cruise. And yes, the salesperson did use the word "free".

We took a 3 day trip to South Carolina which was nice. Then a year later, decided to take our cruise.

Long story short, it is not a free cruise, it is a cruise where you pay port fees, taxes, fuel surcharge, agency fees, an still pay for the cruise itself (at a very small discount). Overall, I would have been charged $560 for the cruise, but if I book it through the cruise-line itself, it is $620. That's the discount- $60.

Just be aware, the cruise you will end up with maybe a 15% discount at best .
