We had an awesome trip. Looking forward to the next one!
Carnival nickel and dimed us excessively. We didn’t get the rooms we paid for due to agent booking errors. Too many mistakes with booking and corrections were patches. Food was awful. Only positive was Carnival staff was generally friendly
Alaska was an outstanding trip. As important, Windows to the World provided outstanding and personalized services. We really enjoyed the travel group and our optional joint activities. This is our second time traveling through Windows to the World and we are in the process on booking our 3rd outing for 2027!
We had a fantastic time on the Alaskan Juneteenth celebration cruise. Great experience meeting new folks, enjoyed the boat, the food, the entertainment, and the tourist destinations. Looking forward to our next adventure with Window to the World Travel.
I would like to say I was disappointed within the entire trip. Let me start off by saying I've attended a Winter Group trip called Beauty and the Beach every year for 5 years and the price started at $ 1,548.00, however, everything was included. When we had our private functions, we did not have to pay for any alcohol beverage while at the private function, and we had appetizers and food as well. Beauty and the Beach has done destinations and cruise as a group. I truly was expecting a little more than what Frankski production offered for this trip. Let's take into consideration, the cost of the trip started at $1,356.00 per person and some people may have paid more after the deadline. There were only three functions set up. 1st the Pool Party, which was nice, let's not forget we were still responsible for our own transportation to and from, which some people had to pay a cab $30 to travel to the Pool Party. Perhaps transportation should have been arranged for us, mind you, I'm still spending money after I paid all that money to attend frank ski summer get a way. 2nd, the 70's Party, once again everyone had to pay for their own alcohol, which should've been free for us while we are attending the private parties. The party started at 9:00 PM and ended by 12:00 PM. The 3rd private function, the all-white from 5: 00 PM until 7:30 PM. We should've received a free T-Shirt, a cup or a wrist band with Frank ski on it. We received NOTHING. Tell us what we received that was worth the money everyone paid to attend his Summer Getaway? Franki ski and his production company collected a lot of money considering a lot of people attended. He did not come around to introduce himself to everyone. The production company has to give back to the people who supporting his functions.
Great, group of people! The parties were fun.
We had a wonderful time. The food was amazing. Planning our next trip.
