If you wish to get nickle and dimed to death on your vacation, I highly recommend Kings Creek Resort on Kentucky Lake. They advertise rates based on 4 people on their website, then when you get there they charge you and extra $15 bucks per person over two people. Why would I rent a larger cabin with 4 beds if I only had two people? After we paid our extra...

After traveling with CIE Tours for the past ten years -- sometimes twice a year -- my wife and I had a trip canceled. At first they refused to give my travel agent a reason. They offered to put us on a "Pub Tour." This didn't work for us since I'm asthmatic and Irish pubs are very smoky. I finally called and after many long waits got to talk to a...

I did go to this presentation, hesitantly on May 16th. They were extremely disorganized and unprofessional. I wound up being there close to 2.5 hrs instead of 1 hr, as promised. At the end, they wanted 10K for a travel 'club' membership...no thanks. They mysteriously ran out of travel vouchers and I still have not received them in the mail, as they...
