We became members of Excursions several years ago. To date, they have saved me hundreds of dollars on several cruise vacations. I know that they can save me money on vacation rentals (timeshare, VRBO, AirBnB) but we haven't had a chance to use those services because we own timeshares ourselves. read more

We went to Excursions to listen to a sales presentation in exchange for discount Brandon show tickets. During the presentation, we were told this 'club' cost $99/quarter, or $396/year. The salesperson likened it to a Costo or Sam's Club membership. Based on this, we were ready to buy in order to save on future travel. We were asked if we wanted to die rich and with a perfect credit score. We were told that lots of persons with a cancer diagnosis benefited from the travel membership. On the very last slide of the presentation, it compares this 'club membership' to the costs of a time share. It states there is a $20k ($19,995) outlay and an initial processing fee of $598. Costco & Sam's Club do not charge an initial outlay of money or a processing fee. Shame on the salesperson for making such a comparison. There is no way we can afford this. When questioned about not sharing the initial outlay and processing fee until the very last slide, they offered to waive the processing fee and offered us a 10-yr membership for $6k. Then they offered us a 5-yr membership for $3k with the processing fee waived. When I told them we could not afford the $3k, the salesperson told me that they take jewelry (as if I was supposed to pawn my wedding ring). Prior to offering to take my wedding ring, he offered to finance the outlay at an 18% interest rate. At this point, the salesperson got horribly rude and kicked us out. Do not buy anything from these scammers!! Buyer beware. read more

This is a scam. We were invited to listen to a 90 minute presentation showing us an exciting new way of experiencing vacations, instead the presenter started out by telling us he was an athlete and his wife (the love of his life) was a rocket designer who got scammed by a rotten timeshare salesman for$50,000 not once but 6 times! and it all put on his credit card. When we questioned how he could condone purchases 6 times!, he had no answer, From then on, the "presentation" was nothing more than ripping apart our timeshare company. He then started asking personal questions about our memberships. When we started refusing to answer and questioned the need for the information, he stood up and threw us out for not fulfilling our part of the "presentation" and told us were were lied to by the "Save on Branson" ticket office. We still have no idea what was going on. He seemed to want us to pay him for helping us dissolve our timeshare???? He threatened to cancel our show tickets, but we fought that back at the "Save on Branson" sales office and finally they gave in and told us to leave with our tickets. Excursions and "Save on Branson" is a big scam!! read more

Absolutely horrible. Let's start with the rep YELLING for the manager when I, politely, said I wasn't interested because the presenter Justin lacked credibility and I wouldn't buy a cup of coffee from him. Rolly LIED to the manager that I was not willing to stay and listen to the presentation. I specifically told Rolly he could continue but that it's not a product I trust based on the presentation. We had to wait in a separate room for the manager to come over. Rolly had to dip back in to cry about me saying I wouldn't buy a cup of coffee from him. I guess being honest is a crime. We did get the certificate signed and we were out in about an hour but honestly, I'm really not sure what the presentation was for. Just started by telling us he was a pastor and throughout the presentation misquoted Scripture in what was an obvious manipulation technique to get Christians to trust him. He gave a fake Bible verse which really attacks his credibility as a pastor. Another couple asked Justin if he was the owner and he said no, the owner was his best friend and he was working there FOR FREE (don't believe that for a second, hence I don't trust him) and he just was so grateful to the company for getting his wife out of the timeshare. After bashing timeshares and insulting anyone who bought a timeshare (literally all the couples in attendance had their timeshare less than a year) the presentation switches into....a travel agency????? I still don't get what that was about. So for $25,000 you can get a travel agent AND (for an additional fee) they will get you out of your timeshare, maybe. The presentation was seriously all over the place that we had no idea what the actual product was. Unclear why screaming at potential customers and publicly embarrassing them is a sales technique. Another couple was LIVID about how insulting the presentation was, we ran back into them after the presentation and we both had similar ick about how poorly they treated everyone. read more

I just starting using excursions. They have helped me with airline reservations and car rental so far. They are helping me dissolve my time share. Prices seem reasonable so far. Hoping this purchase really helps me read more

We went to the presentation and was supposed to receive a cash award for viewing the presentation. Pros: The presentation was well put together and seemed a good deal. Our rep Dawson was polite and well informed. Cons Total cost of membership was almost $20k with a quarterly fee of $99. We were offered roughly $7K in discounts. When we still declined to purchase in cash Dawson got his manager. Here is where things went south. When we told the manager we wanted to do our own research into their company before purchase we were told that price was only good this instant. When we further declined the manager became hostile and combative. It was at this point we just got up and left. It was not about the money, it was about the fact that if they could drop the price $7k initially. Then we should be able to get it for that price in a hour or a day from now. Secondly we did not appreciate the high pressure sales tactics or the rude behavior of the manager. Whose brother a according to him owned the company. They would have made a sale if they had been more flexible. According to the manager the cash gift was available only if we sat through the entire presentation which apparently included his high pressure sales pitch. read more

Chad did an amazing job explaining it all. He was very polite and it was pleasant. Great job! Thanks, Robert B read more

Very entertaining and humorous presentation by Mike Messenger, who has been doing this a long time and knows a lot about different travel package options. Did not feel at all like an onerous or high pressure sales presentation. Although their product was not a good fit for us it may well be for others who travel more than we do. read more

The sales representative, Mike, was rude and had a very poor sense of humor (if you want to call making fun of non-native English speakers humor). His attitude lost us in the first 5 minutes. Worst presentation ever. read more

This is a timeshare exit presentation with a vacation club thrown in for good measure. The price was $39,000 and because we were absolutely not interested in buying after listening to their constant attacking our timeshare ownership they kept dropping the price until the final offer was $4,900. When the first salesperson who claimed to be an attorney walked out, the closer came in and tried to get us to buy. When we said no he said why did we attend the meeting. We answered to get cheap tickets! He left and gave us our tickets. read more

We went there today and Mike Messenger and John threw us out and said that we needed to leave. Then we went to get our tickets and they said we didn't complete their presentation. I have never been treated so poorly. I was told to "get out white trash" Do I have any recourse. They refused to give us the promised tickets. read more

Sat in the Vacation presentation for 90 mins as required. After the presentation Tomas returned to our table. I politely to Tomas we would not be buying the package. He had us leave the conference room and go to a small office by ourselves. When he came into the room he handed me a piece of paper and said to take it across the street from Walmart. Then he said "thanks for wasting my time" And walked out on us. What a jerk. Because we didn't buy now you are going to be rude??? A OUD THIS. BUSINESS!!!! read more

Never informed about the 3 day rights of rescission law in MO. We were lead to believe they would cancel our time shares but later found out they only referred us to a third party and none of the $16,995.00 went to rid us.od time shares as promised. As for the travel club I can do better on my own by the time we pay the yearly dues of $396.00 added to the small discounted vacations. We feel like we have been scammed, when I called to cancel they say it's too late even tho they never made us aware of the 3 day law. read more

The salesman that initially started the presentation was rude and condescending. I had looked into places to buy out a time share so I knew more than he thought I would. He was able to quote laws he said were regarding time share sales. He had a great mind for statistics but very rude personality. The last person we saw still tried to sell us but he was much nicer. read more

We received discount tickets for a 60 minute presentation. We went in for the presentation and we felt insulted twice because we own timeshares. We listened to the presentation, and then shocked that they wanted $20,000 for membership in their vacation club and then 30,000 to buy ours and use their vacation package. We were understandably shocked, and the salesman who came in was insulted and got mad at us and walked out of the room. Definitely would not recommend. We were told we would get huge discounts on tickets if we sat through this presentation and at the end of the presentation when the salesman walked out, he said that we didn't finish the presentation. Not sure what that means but definitely unethical people to work with. read more

Sales presentation was OK but too political. Price was on the high side but I guess comparable to others around. read more

Very deceptive in their presentation. The available condos are run down repurchased timeshares that are tired and not nice. You can find better deals for yourself without paying a fee and dues. Would not recommend at all! read more

Don't do it! My husband insisted we do it, we bought a package and have finished paying it out. We were able to get some pretty good deals for a couple of years, but now my husband is too ill to travel and we are stuck with it. Several of the "condos" we rented were tired time shares. With the availability of better AirBnBs than these properties, why bother? read more

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Our Asperger presenter represented himself as an attorney, and as prior military, but didn't identify the branch. I believe this a stolen valor story and I take that seriously. I googled this guy and he was an MMA fighter with the monicker of "Too Smooth". He did pass the bar. When I confronted one of the "owners" about this, he said "well the guy doesn't have to tell you his life story"! ..Hmm. Too many falsehoods for us. We got our money back. Buyer beware. read more

Great people, easy to work with... Definitely recommend... For families or couples... Lots of ideas... We will definitely call for our next outing/event... read more

Too bad there's not an option for no star. Our narcissistic presenter, whom boosted about being the brother of the owner, was insulted that I didn't write down his 3 questions. When I told him him I could remember 3 questions, he told me I needed to participate. I still didn't so he spent the entire 90 minutes hurdling insults my direction, even telling me I could leave. I reminded him that I was there to learn about the program and I didn't need to like him to like the program. This is nothing but a coupon book they are offering and like all coupons they have an expiration date, which means in a few years their prices will not be able to compete with sites like booking. He also made insults about people that go to these promotions "to save $30 on show tickets". He said "we put you in a cheap hotel with tiny bathroom and you take the bait to save $30 on show tickets". Think of how many people they could scam into buying their coupon book if they had a person presenting that believed in the value of company rather than pumping up his false insights into the travel industry. His information is pre- COVID and is boarding false advertisement. Our sales person was fabulous and I felt bad that he is responsible for losing business for them. It would help if he spent more than the last 5 minutes talking about the program rather than trying to impress us with his "knowledge". I use that word lightly. However, how can you talk about a coupon book for 90 minutes. We did enjoy our free show tickets though lol read more

Everything was great as far as sales presentation. They really do not do the high pressure thing but we were unable to join their travel club at this time due to health restrictions. I did ask our presenter if things changed would we be able to contact them directly about joining and he said absolutely, just give him a call. The $$ that you can save on airfare and European Cruises is unbelievable and we could recoup the purchase price very quickly, especially once it dropped to half the initial pricing! read more

excellent savings. no pressure great value, great selection of resorts hotels and condos. All over the world

To start I was told they could help me get rid of a mess I got into with capital vacations. The presentation was so bad I fell asleep during it. Then when the presentation ended they started telling me we can definitely get you out of that contract. started out really high but they got down to $5000 plus $1100 for whoever this attorney was supposed to be which was a joke. I have nothing but a loss of $6100 dealing with these crooks. I'm still dealing with Capital Vacations with no help from excursion! I have received nothing for my money not any kind of vacation any kind we got two tickets for Dixie stampede that was an awful expensive dinner $6100. Stay away from these people. They are liars. They cannot help you all they're gonna do is talk you out of your money with all the pressure they put you through and I'm seriously thinking about hiring an attorney to go after them I've already hired another to get rid of Capital Vacations that they told me they could get rid of with their connections what a joke. These people are nothing but crooks stay away from them! I told those guys I would be back up there to get my money back if they were lying to me! YES THEY LIED! I am going to Branson soon again. I will be at Excursions to see about getting my $5000 dollars back. The company that was supposed to help me with CAPITAL VACATIONS gave me back my $1100 back and apologize for the lies Excursions told me. If they had any remorse at all they would give me my money back! read more

Presentation was terrible. Tried to get our sympathy for hos condition. Ended rude and boring.

My wife and I got the 5-Day / 4-Night Branson deal with show tickets and attended the presentation. Pretty slick but websites were already open and wouldn't show anything not already pulled up. Starting price was just under $20k, quickly offered the $6900 option followed by the $3300 deal. We said no and weren't overly pressured like others said they were. Well after being home for a week, I get the text to call and activate my $100 hotel savings card. Then came the survey questions on how well they did and low and behold, the Platinum package ($6,500 price) is waived for us if we pay the $69 quarterly fee up front for 2 years. So, for $520 we get what we would have paid $6900 at the presentation and a $99 quarterly fee. After finding this site and reading real stories of those who bought their service, I'm glad to said thanks, but no thanks!! read more

Total SCAM - we bought into this because we travel a lot anyway. We were told that we could match or do better than other sources for Airlines, Cruises, Hotel, Rental Cars, and Condos. The problem is we attempted more than once to book airfare by calling the customer service number and the tickets prices are higher than the airline websites. The Condos and Hotels are never available and we have not even seen rental cars. We have NEVER used our high cost Travel program for 2 years now and are tempted to stop paying the monthly fees. The problem is we paid so much up front - either way we end up throwing away money!!! read more

Join me in getting these people exposed! I've alerted the media and they are interested in doing an expose'. My e-mail is tspencer@irr.com. STAY AWAY!!! this is a scam! I bought a membership after the charismatic salesman gave a flashy presentation and what you see is NOT what you get. Customer service sucks and once you sign that contract they own you! prices are no cheaper than what you get on air BNB. I hope this review saves at least one person from falling victim to this circus sideshow. American Greed should do a show on this place. read more

My husband and I answered minimal questions, kept saying no to each person who pushed harder and harder. Don't give in. After the fourth person that spoke to us we firmly said we were not interested. She threw her pen down, got angry but we got our free shows and cash! We happily walked away, read more

My sister and I allowed ourselves to be pressured into buying. We attempted to book airfare by calling the customer service number and the tickets prices are higher than the airline websites. The Condos and Hotels are never available or higher than what I can get them through Priceline or Expedia. read more

It's a ripoff. Don't let them sucker you into "great savings" they show on a saved (not live) website only to find out you can use an AARP discount or sometimes just book online for the same savings. read more

We got into to this for travel and they told us nothing but lies. Salesperson is Rolly Champan, they lie to get their money and does not care what they have done to other peope. I have called several times and the people I am supposed to talk is Jeremy or Connor and they will not call you back. I know we can go to claims court and if we have too. We all need to together and not let this happen to another person. read more

we were kicked out before the presentation started. We hesitated to answer one of the questions. Th salesman went to get the manager. When we answered their questions the manager called my wife combative and made her cry. Rude, mean spirited, and way out of line. read more

Should give 0 star. DO NOT GET LURED IN. We were lured in, charming sales presentation ----- promises of the best of lodging, cruises, etc. Signed paperwork in January 2021. We have never been able to get any of deals at hotels, cruises, etc. We did book thru them a 7 days hotel stay in San Antonio, TX. We should have read the reviews before committing. The hotel was being renovated and was a horrible mess. According to the reviews that were only 1 week old there were only a few rooms available, construction started at 6/7 each day, all day noise. No breakfast bar, nothing. I called hotel and they confirmed everything. Could not cancel with hotel, called Excursions and was told "tough". We were finally able to get a small refund. We rode by the hotel and the entire parking area was taken by construction trucks and storage trailers. Amazing, we got reservations at at upscale hotel compared to the "Excursions Hotel" for less money. We have gotten better cruise deals directly with the cruise company and they included free air travel. Save your money. read more

Don't buy. They give you a lot of false hope of getting out of a timeshare if you own one. They don't tell you, you are the ones doing all the work on this piece. Also you are paying a lot of money upfront for "discounts" that trust me are not anything you couldn't through Priceline or Expedia, no matter what they say. Also a lot of the rooms that you booked are nonrefundable if you have to cancel. read more

This place is nothing but a bunch of lying hateful people. How could anyone enjoy this job. We went because we were told if we wanted our discount tickets we had no choice but to go. We had no idea what they would be selling. The first person spent most of his time telling us his life story and how he got married. Who cares? Then he went into this is NO sales, no pressure and sent us to another room. This time the man (one of the bosses) said that for only $19,000 we could join or for $29,000 they would get us out of our timeshare, which we were not interested in doing. We said no and then it started about how timeshares cheat you etc. etc. My husband and myself told the man we had owned our timeshare for 17 years and used it all the time. He more or less said I was lying if I liked it. Which by now he was using a very ugly voice. I told him I didn't like the way he was talking to me and he said he didn't like my attitude. I started to say something and he got up and said follow me, he signed our forms and we left. This was the worst presentation we have ever been to, and we have been to many over the years. We got our tickets from the Welcome Center-Save on Branson. They were nice but be careful if they want you to go to Excursions first even when you have already paid for you tickets. read more

My wife and I went to a required presentation on October 17, 2023 as we had already received discounted tickets to a show. We had no plans to buy anything but just sit through the sales pitches. Which we did. However, I would like to enlighten people as to what happened. 1.) When we entered the building we were quickly met by a salesperson who got me a cup of coffee. He knew we were hostile to buying but that didn't surprise him. Everybody is. 2,) We were taken into the main presentation room. There we met the presenter who said he had done this job for twenty-two years. He gave a poliished pitch with excellent slides, videos, and examples beginning with the statement that he was not selling timeshares. In fact they help people out of them. 3.) Next we were sent into separate offices (car salemen anyone!) 4.) The original salesman offered us discounts from the $19,995 price. We were as likely to purchase colon exams as his product. We said no. 4.)He left and another woman came in. She asked if we had been to such a presentation before. We had and said so. Then she signed the release and we left to take it to the half price ticket store. GAME OVER! read more

Cant afford their deal of 19k plus, just keep telling them no, they will keep dropping the price just to make a deal; then tell you not to tell others. Not customer friendly at all. If you go to Branson, MO, stay away from these people. The shows are fantastic but not at what they charge. We got scammed bad. read more

Love working with these guys, I don't have much time to plan on my own so this helped me greatly.

I am a member and can't get into the website. Tried calling, left a call back - nothing in two days. VERY unhappy! read more
