Pack Up + GoReviews of packupgo.com

We forgot to mention we're not morning people so having to be on the road by 9 was a stretch. That's on me. We didn't get driving till 10:30 which meant we had to drive directly to our first activity and skip the pit stop suggestion as well as checking into the hotel first. The first activity was an open air train ride to the 25th Annual Maple Sugar festival in Hadley. Sadly this was a 20 minute ride in the woods with minimal views and the festival was a farmers market. There was only 1 table selling syrup and no other mention of maple. Certainly didn't feel like a festival so that was a bit underwhelming. We did have great tacos from a food truck and found some items to bring home. The hotel was great - great service, amazing food and room. I wish we had more artsy activities in the area. Horse racing and the military museum isn't really of interest to us and thats a huge part of this town. We went to both museums anyways but I feel like for the cost of this trip we could have done something more interesting. We did choose to go to the Skidmore Tang Museum which was great. The Spa Park massage was amazing. Overall it was nice to have a short getaway with new experiences, and we made the best of activities that weren't really our thing, but perhaps I wasn't clear enough outlining my interest. This is our 3rd trip with PUG and I assumed our past trips info would be available to the planner to help outline what we do like. Saratoga felt a little lacking for the price tag. If we didn't have a great hotel I think I would have been more disappointed. Also the famous mineral springs are really just historic water fountains in the parks that you might otherwise just walk by. The hotel, food, and massage were the highlights but I feel like those things had little to do with the location. In the future it would be super cool if the customer had the option to send examples of what they're looking for and get some feedback on what sort of price tag to associate with that kind of trip as well as if its doable within dates/travel type. Perhaps if I selected plane travel we may have had a more bougie experience.

I enjoyed not having to plan a trip! I'm used to getting decision fatigue by all the choices. The hotel and restaurants were places we would have never chosen on our own. I do wish we were given an itemized receipt of where our money went. We had some issues with the valet (they didn't believe we had prepaid, and they still charged us a fee), but I'm not sure if that is the fault of the hotel or Pack Up + Go. We did eventually get a refund from them.

Overall it was a fun trip. One of our activities got canceled due to weather and they called right away to try and plan something new for us (we opted for a refund). Our activities were planned for the middle of the day, which is fine, but made it really hard to do other things with the time constraints. We were just kind of left feeling like while we enjoyed the location, enjoyed the activity we did do, we could have planned a better trip for what we spent.

We had a good time in Savannah, but I have to be honest: We were not thrilled to be sent to a city that we've been to so many times that we stopped going there. This was our third PU&G trip, but our first road trip. It made us realize that while the suspense was fun we are more than equipped to plan a trip within a six-hour drive ourselves. No offense to PU&G at all — their planning was as usual fun and interesting — it's just that we're really experienced travelers. [Remember, you pestered me with emails to write this review. ;) ] I will say that the Husk Old-Fashioned at the restaurant Husk was phenomenal!

This was my second time with Pack Up + Go. I loved both trips but this one was absolutely amazing. It was everything I asked for. Peace, trees, animals and reading. The place I stayed was beautiful and so hard to leave.

Overall a very fun experience. I did the option where you tell Pack Up & Go where you were traveling and they book the accomodations, events, etc. On the whole I had a really fun time and I loved the surprise factor of things. That said there was some hiccups - timing wise we missed a prepaid event because there was not enough time to get from the airport to the hotel and then to the event. We also couldn't go to one of the dinners (which they did comp us back for) which was supposed to be a birthday dinner because the restaurant didn't comply with the food allergy limitations of our group. I also got charged on my personal credit card for the hotel we stayed at. Pack Up and Go did handle all these issues well and worked with me so I really appreciated their customer service, but it was a bit annoying just having to deal with.

The customer service was probably the best ever and truly delivered a great experience…. My only issue was that we didn’t receive our package till 72 hours before our trip making me nervous because one of those days was a federal holiday/thanksgiving…. I thought our destination was to be sealed since we let the company pick our destination but I found out because that was the first paper in our package besides the 2nd which listed what to pack and weather…. All in all it was a wonderful experience despite the little mishap and such a late return flight when we had a 12pm hotel checkout…. But we will definitely recommend and be using pack up and go in the future!

The location was to do die for!!! The planned activities were great! Now, the planned dinner spots….. everything was a “scene”! The food, 4 course meals. Over rated! Mind you the planned dinner spots are not already paid for! For the price that we paid, the entire trip including meals at the planned dinner spots should have been paid for! It’s was about $150 per person each restaurant!
