The guys at Solia are great and very courteous to travellers, happy to recommend it to anyone

Booking this holiday package with Great Pacific Travels through scoopon has been Amazingly seamless. Silky, my holiday representative from Great Pacific Travels was absolutely terrific, very informative, very prompt and extremely polite. We will definitely book through Great Pacific Travels again in the future.

The mystery getaway reads - pay $499 for 4 nights & get a great mystery holiday. It’s misleading as it doesn’t mention that more payments are required subject to destination/flights However the service is prompt.

I purchased 4 vouchers for 2 trips as presents for Christmas. Both were to Melbourne. The pros: process relatively simple, accommodation was in the city or just on the outskirts which was fine because public transport is amazing in Melbourne. The cons: everything cost more - ended up costing nearly double the advertised price, they only allow the cheapest of cheap Jetstar flights and cheapest rooms. Paid extra to depart from Brisbane (that's fine it's in the fine print) paid extra to have flights that would connect with other flights in Brisbane (not at 8pm at night), paid extra for dates I wanted (but all dates seemed to cost more). 1st trip we flew into Avalon airport which is much further out of the city than Tullamarine. My flight details (with contact details) were sent to another purchaser, who rang me to advise they'd received them. The add said the first 100 sold received additional extras, was confirmed on the phone that both my purchases qualified and that a week prior to departure another draw would take place to determine what those extras would be. This never happened even though I followed up on both. Would I do this again - probably not, the unknown expenses come in after you have already purchased your trip so you have to pay extra or forfeit your money. Better to just plan and book your own unless you go in knowing that it will probably cost you double the initial outlay.

I would never buy a 'mystery' voucher again. To be advised when the consultant called that there were only 2 options Sydney or Melbourne. Even though the apparent list of possible locations was a lot longer. I was then charged extra money to be able to be booked into a suitable hotel that wasn't in the middle of nowhere. When the flights were booked they were both early morning (they were the cheapest listed within webjet) when I asked if we could have a return flight at a reasonable time that didn't require us checking out at 4am and therefore might possible enjoy the 2 nights accommodation this once again came at another cost. After all was booked I explored myself at the cost of the flights booked and the hotel and found it would have been cheaper if I had of booked myself, there would have been a breakfast upgrade. Further to this when I finally received the information after chasing it up the flight was only with carry on only - no baggage. I questioned the consultant why this was the case to be told that she told me this on the initial booking which was not true. However once again advised I could pay more to have this changed.
