Costco /Viator savings

Thank you. As someone fairly new to all the services Costco offers, I'll add this to my list.

Thanks so much for sharing this!

So the question is, is it worth the risk?

The problem is you put a middleman between you and the tour operator and I know a lot of people for example a couple years ago in Paris the night before their tour of the Eiffel Tower were getting “too bad so sad, Here’s your refund” emails from Viator which didn’t do them any good because they couldn’t just replace the tour

Carol now retired, thanks for the heads up.

Clearly stated this thread is not for debate, just information for those planning to use Viator.

Carol, thanks for sharing this.

While I always try to book directly with the tour operator, sometimes that isn't possible. I've been in contact with a company in Nova Scotia. There is currently no way to book a tour directly on their website at this time. They have directed me to book their tour through Viator.

As always, before booking with a third party site, do your due diligence so you understand all the terms.

As someone who has two of my travel experiences listed on Viator, I wonder whose pocket that 15% comes out of.

I'm also a Costco member, so on the purchase end it sounds like a good deal!

Thanks Carol Now, 15%/22% in my pocket, I'll take it. Great savings tip.
