Years MR DAVE GRIFFITHS at Omega Travel on Weat Broadway is, excuse my French - THE F$&KING MACK DADDY OF TRAVEL AGENTS! It's like this, I'm coach and I ant fancy but Dave knows my stees and gets me. Isle seat, kosher meals and legit prices you can't beat. Moreover he's a seasoned traveller and totally Jedi when it comes to recommendations like spots to hit, places to visit and amazing food must eats. Omega Travel is comprised of agents who live to travel and share their top notch experiences with each and every client they meet. Forget the impersonal .com route (it's actually cheaper and you deal with a real human lol)

I had a great experience with Expedia CruiseShipCenters Kits, in particular Bian who was my agent,…read more I didn't actually seek her out, as my cruise had been paid for and booked by someone else. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed as the traveller must still get some info straight to the cruise line and I've never done this before. Out of the blue, Bian contacted me to say she would be my agent and was going to answer my questions and generally help me along. She was very helpful and patient with emails going back and forth, and assuring me that I had done things correctly. She also called with an offer to upgrade our room to one with a balcony, for only $100 more for the whole week! Also, as it was my BF's birthday during the cruise, Bian arranged another special something for us. Having never cruised before and with unknown expectations, I have to say the lead-up could not have been better with the help of Bian and her office. I'd recommend them highly to anyone!

There have been a couple times where I have taken all of my pre-planned arrangements into them from research online and they haven't been able to find me anything cheaper and they will simply tell me to go book it. The travel industry is not like it was in the late 90's and given this, their honestly means a lot to me when I book a trip. Even if I end up booking online, I still always book my insurance with them. Friendly, attentive staff and no pressure or lousy sales pitches. This company gives you a sense of feeling safe and protected with your vacation choices, something that I don't think many agencies offer anymore and haven't for a while.

Located near the end of Chinatown, on Pender Street, I found this place back in the middle of 2006. When you go in, you see 7 - 8 big desk, one on each side. The funny thing is the sign above each desk, as they tell you what language the agent at that desk can speak. Most of the Asian language's are covered. I have to give credit to the one person that has helped me for all my travel needs for the past 4 years. Her name is Carrie, and I have recommended her to a number of my friends and collegues. She has always been helpful getting quotes for flights for me, and she also looks at other dates to try to save me money. All the quotes that I have been give are always after tax, and she has been able to beat online prices. Also the convience of dealing with payment over the phone, and emailing me the itenerary has been great. If you plan to book your next flight, give this place a try, I'm still using it to this day. Also if you are flying to Asia and you need a China Visa, they can help you do it for an extra $10, which is way better than you wasting your day (and your life away) at the China embassy trying to get one!

I would not recommend booking a destination wedding through Escapes. I had high hopes after…read moreattending a promotional event at the Vancouver Women's Club however that was the end of "wow" factor. Our agent was Susan who boasts lots of experience. We were happy and excited to working with her but it wasn't long before all that ended. We asked her for guidance on which area and resort to visit. Her attempt to inform us was vague and disorganized. She already had certain hotels that she wanted to recommend.... but we hadn't even decided on the geographical location yet. Then when it was time to talk about resorts, she pushed really hard on certain resorts... some that we had been to before (and wouldn't visit again). We did our own research and asked her for pricing and availability. It took weeks to hear back. And it was only partial information. I (the bride) couldn't stand it anymore and had to have my husband talk to her on the phone. We finally picked our own hotel with absolutely No help from Susan... but then the confusion and incompetence began with booking us and our guests. She could not figure out that we wanted to arrive two days early... "there is no package for 10 days" etc.... book separate flights then! We had to walk her through how to help us book into an unusual vacation length. Next was booking in our Guests. She was supposed to have a handle on this... "we wouldn't have to follow up with anyone" that was part of what they promised. But that didn't happen. Manu of our guest had difficultly getting payment or requests to her. And I guess she was afraid to pick up the phone in certain cases but in one instance she was going to charge the room to another guest who had the same last name... ya they are related, but that doesn't mean they are paying together! There are other examples of her inadequate service, but I won't go on. Overall, I was extremely disappointed in the service rendered at Escapes. They received quite a bit of $$ from our trip and none of it was deserved. I considered so many time foregoing our deposit and going elsewhere but I stuck it out. The important thing is that we made it through. The wedding and the vacation were amazing but this was certainly not because of escapes. The were a pain to work with and inhibited the creativity in the planning process... not recommended!

Very bad business practice…read more We booked a 3pm tour. It was the last day that we are in Vancouver, we would be flying home that night. At 1:45pm, after we have planned our whole day around the excursion and checked out of the hotel in preparation of this tour, Sea Vancouver office called and said they are cancelling my tour because they "need a minimum of 4 people and only 3 people booked". I explained that we are leaving the city that day, and we planned our whole day around this, and if there is anything they can do. It is unreasonable to only notify me 75 minutes prior to departure time - we were already on the way to the departure point! The only thing they said was that they will refund me in full (I'd better hope so since you cancelled it with incredibly short notice!) I understand that it may not be economical to operate a tour based on fixed cost, but this was NOT written anywhere when I booked it on the official website, but they were happy to take my money when I booked. The confirmation email stated "We reserve the right to delay or cancel a departure for events beyond our control (e.g. adverse weather conditions, technical or mechanical issues, etc.)" -- well, operating a boat when there are "only" 3 paying customers is definitely in their control, they just choose to screw over their customers. This has put a really sour taste on my trip to Vancouver. I would encourage everybody to stay away.

This was our first time in Vancouver, and whats not a better way to experience it than by taking a boat tour! We honestly planned this boat tour super last minute, so we called a few places, but they were all closed. Fortunately, Sea Vancouver still had tours going out until 7pm which was the last one! The lobby is located in the Westin hotel and the ride is 90 minutes long, which takes you all around the harbor of Vancouver to the English Bay! There was so much to see at the waterfront and we even saw a few dolphins along the ride! We were hoping for orcas too but maybe next time haha. Overall the boat tour was absolutely amazing!
