Pack Up + Go: Travel Company Review

***Sorry this took so long to post I had it in my drafts but never published it....whoops***

When it comes to traveling I adore the concept of the whole thing. I love the idea of waking up in a strange city with only your wits and the kindness strangers to guide you through the ciaos. Which is why the concept of booking through a travel company that was going to keep my destination a secret from even me was intriguing.

I had first stumbled across the company Pack Up + Go a few years ago when I had first started playing with the idea of becoming a solo backpacker. However inexperience in traveling prevented me from looking into it any farther and instead just thought that it was a cool idea. Fast forward to three months ago I come across the company again. With a few trips under my belt and the promise of a few more within the next few years I thought it was about time to pursue the idea of a mystery vacation a bit father. I’ll be honest in saying that my actual booking of the trip was done on a whim. I researched the company via unbiased and unpaid reviews and saw where people seemed to only have nothing but good things to say about their experiences. So after a few days of contemplating the trip I booked it two months out and was so glad I did.

Overall my experience with Pack Up + Go was fabulous. For not knowing where I was going I felt very prepared when it came to what items I needed to pack and what the weather and activity level would be. As you can read on my previous post about this trip I received an envelope in the mail a few days before my trip and was told not to open it till the day of my departure because it would have everything I would need in my trip inside. What was contained inside this envelope you ask. Mine included:

My destination reveal

A custom postcard

Flight information

Transportation options within the city

Hotel information

Area breakdown (what to see/eat)

Uber gift card

Destination fact sheet

Confirmations for pre-booked excursions (I got a museum ticket and a food tour)

They really did provide everything I needed and it was really fun just to travel in the moment. So would I do it again? HELL YES! Rather it be by myself, with a friend, or a group I would most defiantly travel through pack up and go again. Everything went so seamlessly and the only issue I had was a small charge that was accidentally given to me by my hotel, however a quick email to Pack Up + Go and that was resolved.

What do you say? Are you game for a mystery vacation?
