“We absolutely LOVED our trip through Pack Up + Go! For being a couple that likes to have control and plan, it was so much fun to just let go and be surprised! It was so nice to not have to worry about where to stay- they are the experts- so I trusted Pack Up + Go would pick a great spot- and they did!

This was the perfect gift for my fiancé's 30th birthday. The envelope came with so much more great details and recommendations we weren't expecting. We followed almost everything laid out for us, and truly loved everything! We will definitely book a trip through Pack Up + Go again!”

"We had a BLAST in Chicago. If you're on the fence about Pack Up + Go let this be a sign; just do it! The hotel and accommodations were so much more luxurious than anything we would have planned for ourselves. I don't know how they made our modest budget stretch that much! We went to so many museums, checked out the theater and ate like kings. Who knew the midwest was so cultured? This is a trip we'll be talking about for YEARS."

“I was struggling on where to go for our 7 year anniversary weekend getaway, so I booked Pack Up + Go and our trip was AMAZING! This is the second time they met all the requirements noted in our survey! This time they found us GLAMPING accommodations, great hiking suggestions and booked us for a half day rafting trip! It is so NICE to be provided options and still get to choose what to do without the hard work of figuring it all out!”

“We did a Staycation in the northern part of San Diego county. We’ve lived in San Diego for years but never explored north county. The pandemic and this trip let us do that! It was a nicely planned trip, and if you don’t like planning but enjoy traveling and surprise, this is perfect for you.”

“We loved our trip so much! Staying in downtown Phoenix in a hotel was something we never would have chosen but it gave us so many options within walking distance. There was a bar with live music right across the street that was probably my favorite part of the trip! We also loved being able to grab a drink and hang by the pool and relax!!

It was a perfect girl’s weekend and we didn’t have to do any of the hard work!”

“We wanted to do something different and special for our 20 year anniversary. This was the perfect vacation for us. It was fun to have our vacation planned and the anticipation of finding where we were going was exciting. We went to Ithaca, NY and we enjoyed every minute. Not only was the designation perfect for us, but the activities planned for us and the restaurants were awesome. We definitely will be doing this again!”

“For a pair of travelers who don't travel nearly often enough and were looking just for a SURPRISE and something NEW... Pack Up + Go delivered! The excitement and anticipation for our trip had not just us, but our family and friends buzzing and speculating where our trip would take us. Lo and behold... San Antonio was our destination!

This vacation was clearly personalized for our goals for the trip in mind. All activity and food recommendations were sublime - exactly what we wanted for our trip. We can honestly say that we can’t wait for our next surprise vacation with Pack Up + Go!”

“We absolutely LOVED our trip. Pack Up + Go sent us to San Diego, to which we had never been (nor anywhere in California for that matter) and we were giddy as soon as we opened the envelope.

All the food recommendations we tried knocked it out of the park. We also felt that a lot of effort was put into planning the trip with our interests in mind! My girlfriend is very interested in black history, and Pack Up + Go recommended for us to visit the Casa Del Rey Moro Museum of African-Latin History. It was a very cool experience, and felt like such a niche find (it's a small operation run by one man in a small house) that it really showed us how much effort they put in and that they really consulted with someone who had local knowledge.

Overall, 10/10. We did not want to come home.”

"We absolutely LOVED our trip to Asheville! We chose to do a Road Trip because we only had a few days and loved how Pack Up + Go took the time to think about the actual driving as well! They gave us recommended stops right around the halfway mark that also fit into what we love to do and it made the drive so much better! We really enjoyed having reservations already made for us, as well as so many different ideas for where to eat if we wanted to cancel a reservation.

It was so wonderful to go on a vacation and not have to think too hard about what we wanted to do or could do because we had so many ideas given to us, but we still had the freedom to choose and explore on our own."

“Our destination was a slam dunk for our personalities and interests! We were so surprised, but so pleased! The town was so full of history, wonder and beauty, and we had the best time! Customer service with Pack Up + Go is out of this world, and they were happy to help when we found ourselves with a delayed flight home. We can’t wait to do another trip!”

“Denver has completely stolen me and my husband's hearts. The Pack Up + Go accommodations were arranged so precisely. Everything they recommended and scheduled us for was worth 5 stars! Pack Up + Go even communicated that we would be able to store our luggage at our last activity because we had a flight right after. They know their stuff and do all the research so you don’t have to!”

“This was the most wheelchair accessible, easiest, busiest, and most fun trip we have ever taken together. We felt like everyone was very conscious of the safety rules for COVID also, we felt very safe on this trip. The food was awesome at all the places you recommended! We really like the stops on the way down and back home too.

We loved all the reservations you made for us for meals and tours! The hotel location was so great for everything we wanted to visit, the valet parking was so convenient! Thank you!”

“What an adventure! At the end of last school year, as a reward for good grades, our kids got to fill out a survey and choose a Pack Up + Go trip. They wanted everything outdoor - and WOW did the trip deliver! We headed to the Smoky Mountains where we hiked, white water rafted, ziplined, explored caves, went horseback riding, and enjoyed the view from our amazing cabin accommodation. Many memories were made this weekend! 🙂”

“We were so happy when we opened our envelope and it said San Francisco. Our hotel was right next to everything with views of Alcatraz. Being gluten-free they made sure to give us great food options and reservations. The catamaran ride was so much fun and we loved the itinerary. We want to move to San Francisco now. Thanks for everything and we will be booking another!”

“Pack Up + Go is an amazing company to book your mystery travel destination! They are so mindful of every part of the planning process and have great communication every step of the way! We were sent to Atlanta, Georgia, and although I have been to Georgia before, the activities and restaurants they provided were amazing, and things I hadn’t experienced before! 10/10 would recommend!”

“My husband and I loved our minimoon! We were blown away by how personalized our itinerary was. As wheelchair users, we were really impressed by the accessibility of each place recommended in our itinerary. It can be really hard to travel to new places because it's hard to find accessible restaurants and activities, so it was incredible to have someone do all of that work for us and plan a fun, romantic, and accessible minimoon for us.”
