UTO is a SCAM. Don't get sucked in and lose your money. My wife and I were excited when we booked a China/Japan tour. We had it planned to leave in 2022. COVID happened and delayed our tour. Then we rescheduled for March 2023. Same thing - COVID required cancelling. Now I am trying to book for 2025. Nothing but expensive add ons - ALL OF THE INCLUDED COST...

I currently have some 3k on travel credit. This was from when I first booked in 2018 for a 2020 China package. When I tried to get money back, they are giving me a lot of excuse. Even when I told them about a friend who got their money back, they refuse to give me the same courtesy, saying different package different policy excuse. I know the pandemic i...

I paid in full of a China Japan tour in 2019. UTO Vacations cancelled the trip due to covid and forced me to take a travel credit. I then used the credit to book a Oct-2023 10-day China tour. In Feb-2023, they emailed saying China restricted trip to 5-days and offer me a cancel and refund choice, which I selected. They called me saying they would only give...

Booked a trip to China in 2021 for October 2023. I called to make final payment in February of 2023 and was told to wait until China opened up for visitors who would be staying more than 7 days. After no communication, I called back in June to be told we could go not go on the trip since we didn't make our final payment on time. It seems the trip to China...

This company is unethical. I signed up for a $299 China Buster deal in the midst of covid that was to happen in 2023. We selected a more favorable date and and added a side trip so it brought up the price up and I put down $1,200 deposit for the 4 of us. They canceled the trip and are only willing to issue a credit. I requested a refund, and they said "No...

BEWARE. It looked like such a good deal. We booked in Nov 2022 for a trip in Nov 2023. Per documentation (we have copies) last payment was supposed to be May 2023. One month (April) before last payment I contacted them to get status on visas process. They claimed they had sent an email in February (that email was never received) and was told that I wa...

Feeling SCAMMED on our 40th Wedding Anniversary We were supposed to travel for the first time in March 2020. Rescheduled many times due to Covid - not UTO's fault, I understand. Finally, rescheduled this past Nov 22 to go in Nov 23. Called today as wanted to pay off remaining balance and was told that our participation in the trip was cancelled as we did...

We needed to cancel 82 day in advance as they don’t even have all our paperwork and have not issued any d comments. We paid $798 extra for worry free travel but find that it is of no value. I just want a refund or credit for the future but the refuse and say I have lost everything. My travel partner has a best friends child who has been waiting on donor one...

I booked this trip two years ago and paid my deposits totally $299 in good faith. I rescheduled due to Covid. However, due to China’s Zero covid policy, the war in Ukraine and numerous other issues, I decided to cancel my trip. I requested a refund as this company, despite their policy, DOES issue refunds. However, when it came to me, they decided that...

I purchased a vacation package to China for 7 people from UTO vacations. After giving them two deposits, they cannot deliver on the promised vacation. They are refusing to refund my money, and instead are trying to get me to change my dates. I don't want to change my dates. It is hard enough to get 7 people to coordinate a trip. They are trying to say that...
