Our Go-To's for REAL Reviews

One request we get often from potential travellers is what review websites they can turn to for feedback about The Global Work & Travel Co.? Well, bear with me here because I'm about to break it down for you and make it super easy to search up as many genuine online reviews as you please! (Over 10,000 of them, actually!)

Are online review sites really that important though? The answer to that question is that they're so RIDICULOUSLY important! In this day and age, virtually all of our potential customers hit the web in search of positive reviews to get the inside scoop before they get going with The Global Work & Travel Co. 

It's crazy to think that most people would trust an online customer review from a cyber stranger, just as much as they’d trust the recommendations from their own family and friends! But it's true and it's also becoming super common, which is why in the last 12 months we've encouraged every one of our customers to leave a review, good or bad, to let others and us know how we hold up. And now there are over 10,000 reviews online!

Over the past 8 years we’ve booked over 50,000 travellers to visit every corner of the earth, so you can pretty much find reviews floating around everywhere. But when looking for reviews, the internet isn’t always as genuine as it appears. Many sites have communities where people can earn points for commenting on another post or question. And this type of incentivised posting encourages people to jump on the bandwagon and talk about something they haven't done or even tried, and normally it can’t be verified if it’s true - especially when done anonymously.

We don’t believe in incentivised or anonymous reviews. We just want unbiased feedback from customers, which is why we decided to write up this handy blog to show where you can find real feedback, from real people, who are real verified customers.

1. YouTube

Did you know that almost all of the footage posted on our YouTube channel is sent in by our Global Travellers livin’ out their travel dreams?! We have heaps of video journals from past and present loaded up on there so you can see each and every kind of trip we offer from a different point of view.

We call it Global TV and we’ve gained a whopping 700,000 views and counting thanks to you guys who keep tuning in. Wander on over and have a gander for yourself at all the epic adventures that have been lived out thanks to The Global Work & Travel Co.

Not to keep tooting our own horn or anything but The Global Work & Travel Co. has been listed amongst the Top 10 Best Rated Travel Agencies on Consumer Affairs worldwide. With over 1 million reviews and 10,000 brands on this platform, this site holds some serious authority. 

Of course, we didn’t do all the hard work ourselves, with 1,500+ reviews of our trips and services we wouldn't be ranked up there without our real past travellers giving us substantial feedback.

8. The Global Website

Last but absolutely not least, this post would not be complete without one final shoutout to our Global website. But seriously, if you’re still not sure from those thousands of reviews already, we have even MORE reviews over here too. Much like YouTube, you can easily organise them into the different trip, country or rating you’re looking for yourself. Our reviewers have also posted happy snaps along with their feedback so they’ll give you heaps of travel inspiration to get that day-dreaming kick-started.
