You are thinking of going outside of the box and swapping solo travel for group travel. The group trip hunt begins and you find yourself browsing through 10 different platforms. Since it is your first time giving group travel a shot, you want it to be safe, flexible, and fun. The website can proclaim the bright side of their services, but reading the reviews gives you the green light.
We understand the importance of forthright and honest reviews given out by real people. For that reason, JoinMyTrip provides community review platforms to highlight the authenticity of our travel experiences. But, how do JoinMyTrip reviews work? – you might ask. Let this article be the answer you’re seeking!
What is a review?
A review is submitted by TripMates (group trip participants) once they completed a trip and dedicated to the TripLeaders. JoinMyTrip reviews allow TripMates to summarize their overall experience – positive or negative – give feedback to the TripLeaders, and let other travelers know what to expect on a JoinMyTrip tour.

What Did Our TripMates Say About JoinMyTrip?
First Timer-Friendly
“I’m so happy I went on this trip with Roberta and the group!! It was my first time visiting Europe and I had no idea what to expect. I had a blast and made memories with people I won’t forget for the rest of my life ❤️ The itinenary was well planned and each day we had exciting adventures to look forward to! 😁 I really appreciated Roberta’s communication and organization. Each night she provided us with details for the next day so we prepared. For a group of 11 people who spoke different languages, it was effortless for Roby to get us on the same page with plans.
Now that I’m back home, I can’t stop thinking about all the good times we had, the conversations, the laughs and experiences we shared. Thank you again Roby and to the rest of the group who made this trip such a special one!”

Safe for Solo Female Travelers
“Since it was my first trip to Southeast Asia and I was traveling alone as an 18-year-old, feeling safe was extremely important to me, and that’s exactly how I felt from the very beginning. Even before the trip, Timo was always available, super helpful, took the time to answer my questions in detail, and gave so many tips and pieces of information that I felt perfectly prepared.
Throughout the entire trip, I never once felt unsafe or worried. I was able to just completely unwind because Timo organized everything, from transfers to activities to the restaurants. And he even thought of so many little details that I would never have thought of myself. You could just go with the flow and enjoy the moment without having to constantly plan—that was really wonderful. At the same time, though, you still always felt like you had a say in what we did.
What makes Timo special to me is his calm, attentive, and at the same time totally relaxed manner. He really looked out for everyone, was responsive to everyone’s needs, and had a solution for everything. Yet he was never “the tour guide,” but more like a friend you’re traveling with who simply takes care of all the organization :). That’s exactly what made the whole trip so pleasant and relaxed.

Strangers Getting Along
5 strangers met and went on a 12-day road trip around the gorgeous country of Georgia. Georgia is a very beautiful country and has something to offer to every type of traveler including those interested in just site seeing, wine tasting & gastronomy and those interested in a little adventure. We were fortunate that most of our team members got along very well and overall, we all enjoyed our road trip very much. This comradery was key to the success of the trip in my opinion, especially for me.
