Global Work & Travel Reviews

The call was very great! The lady I talked to was so kind and helpful! After talking with her, I am feeling very excited about my trip next year as an Au Pair. I couldn’t have asked for the experience to be better!

Very professional and informative! I wanted to learn more about Italy, the culture, people, food and the language. This language studies program is the best option! I can’t wait to get there and meet my host family.

Very helpful and informative. The process has been so smooth and easy. I have no doubts going to work with global and am so excited to travel with them. The customer service was great and they were very professional and kind.

Ellen was very nice and helpful! She provided me with all the info and more help with my trip outside the tour I booked! Very understanding and patient! She took the time to listen to me regarding the specific dates and expectations!

I had a great conversation with the representative I spoke to. She explained the process clearly and answered all my questions, which made everything much easier to understand. She was energetic, fun to talk to, and helped take away a lot of the stress. I left the call feeling confident and excited to move forward.

The consultation was very helpful and informative. They answered all my questions and queries. The processes was simple and easy. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to take the next step with their work and travel dreams.

Could not have asked for a better experience. The team are so friendly and super happy to answer any questions. They walked me through all the steps required and communication was fantastic. Highly recommend!

My initial contact phone call was very helpful, insightful, and supportive. My next steps were discussed along with expectations and important details in record to move forward. I was very excited at the end of our phone call. Thank you Global Work And Travel!

The process was incredibly smooth. The representative who assisted me answered any and every possible question I had, detailed all of the possible options adding in great recommendations and was so attentive. 10/10 would always recommend.

This was a mind blowing experience. Jade is the best. She was very friendly and explained everything perfectly. l am so excited about my upcoming trip! I can't wait to experience Thailand. I'm getting excited about meeting new people.

I spoke with Taylor to begin my travel itinerary to Thailand! She was super helpful and thorough as she went over expectations and requirements to proceed. I’m excited to join the GW Family and look forward to working with her to make this dream a reality.

The Global Work and Travel Team have been super helpful organizing our working holiday. If it wasn’t for Tate and Mikaela it would certainly be more stressful so a big thanks to those guys. Couldn’t make this happen without them.

If I could give them a zero I would. Don’t trust them. I've heard many stories about their overpriced flights and activities. But I’m telling a different story. Mind you this happened in 2023 and it’s 2025. They will practically just steal your money if you cancel a trip. And if you try and get it back they’ll say that you harassing them when it’s your money that they took. So I saw that $169 was taken from my account. which I was fine with at the time till I found out that I couldn’t go due to personal reasons. It was due to one of my family members became sick so I had to take care of them. So I had to cancel. When I did they said they would keep my money as store credit which I didn’t want.

Save your money and do it yourself. They charge extortionate prices for insurance. 5 minutes of research provided me with a better price for 1 years worth of comprehensive insurance to more countries, compared to 6 months and less countries with them. I didn’t book my flights through them so can’t say anything about that process. Don’t even get me started on the working holiday process. I decided to go with Global to try and minimize my stress, believing they could sort a job for me quicker and easier than I could myself. Turns out this is not the case. The day I was flying out they finally let me know that I had a job. So basically I was flying to a foreign country with no job and no plan. But alas they got me a job right on the buzzer and off I went. Until…. I get dropped in the Irish country side and am immediately greeted by more Global customers (living and working at the workplace) who are absolutely shocked I’ve turned up.

Tomsyn has been a great help, I called the day I decided to book the trip with Global Work & Travel to confirm a few queries about the company itself and Tomsyn picked up and made himself my trip coordinator. He was helpful and gave me advice from the very start. Highly recommend Global Work & Travel as the trip coordinator I was lucky to have on my side was extremely helpful and happy to help with any questions I had. 5 stars without a doubt.

Brad was extremely helpful and reassuring about the process of getting to Australia. He provided excellent tips and insights and assured that the process would run smoothly while answering any questions I had.

Amazing experience so far! Taylor & Ellen have been so helpful and wonderful and there for me every step of the way. :) They’ve always just been a phone call, email, or message away and setting up meetings have been extremely beneficial! Taylor especially has been there with me since the very beginning when I was still debating about taking the trip and I can’t say enough good things about her! She is one of the main reasons I’m even going. :) The whole process has been easy and the paperwork has even been fun, not tedious! I’m so excited for the next steps and continue on this journey and can’t wait to experience my trip that I’ve been anticipating. :)

GWAT offers an amazing service and, for the most part, I've had a pleasant experience with them. My Trip Coordinator, Kate, was absolutely lovely and has answered my questions and helped me prepare. However, I do find that almost everyone I've spoken to seemed to be reading off a script; like they had to say certain things to hit their markers for the conversation and would direct the conversation despite my questions. It felt very pushy. Even when I had already made up my mind about participating in the program, the first person I spoke to seemed to ignore my questions and tried to "sell" me on the merits of the program which, in my case, was superfluous and frustrating. That first conversation was meant to be informative about next steps. Despite the fact that I did not need or want information on "why this program is so great and why I should sign up," they gave it anyway. I would ask that GWAT encourage their coordinators to be less like salespeople and more like advisors.

Kate was amazing! She helped me out so much and made sure I was always on track. Can’t thank her and the team at Global Work & Travel for everything they’ve done for me. Can’t wait to start my new adventure!

Liam from Global called me to resolve this issue.

Global Work & Travel has been a great organization to partner with for my working holiday! They are a great resource on all the steps to be able to participate in this. Shout out to Josh for being a great Trip Coordinator! Super friendly and super kind! Has made me feel so supported in this process!

Having the most amazing experience working and traveling in Canada. So many people made this dream possible and I am truly amazed every time I wake and realize I made it. Special thanks Miya who has been a true guiding light through this experience and continually checking in. I would 100% recommend Global to anyone looking to make a working holiday easier.

Overall our trip was awesome. They arranged everything and communicated things in advance. This made our journey very smooth. Very professional and always available. Amazing Experience. I will again book them for my travel booking.

Taylor helped me and introduced me to the Global Work and Travel team. She was very lovely and helpful. I would highly recommend booking your next trip with them. They help you with every step which take a lot out of your hand.

Emma has helped me so much in trying to achieve my working holiday in Canada! I do not think I would have been able to go forward without her amazing help and guidance. With her patience and determination, I was able to submit my final funds in securing my trip to Canada. Looking forward to my travels.

Great customer service and very easy to get in touch with. Took all the pressure off everything and made the process of booking everything much more enjoyable. The motivating nature of every phone call made the experience even more exciting.

I cannot stress heavily enough how awful this company is. They claim to be a middleman to make the process of obtaining a working holiday visa and finding work in your country of choice easier, which they absolutely do not do. Before they will even start helping you with anything they require over a thousand pounds. After paying this, you are no closer to obtaining the working holiday visa. What do you get for the money? A few links emailed to you from which you fill out all the paperwork yourself. A thousand pounds. They will then try to scare you into only getting insurance and flights through them, at twice the usual cost.

Global Work and Travel is pushy over the phone and don't cover all policy with you until you've already made a purchase. I booked a trip before covid and they canceled it on me but refused to provided a refund to protect their own profits instead of helping out me and people like me who were in the thick of a pandemic. To this day I have not been given a refund for $3400 I spent. They offer a less than 50% refund and cite the policy they never even cover with you. It's absolute bull. Never trust companies like this one. They don't care about you.

I began my journey with Global Work and Travel in September of 2022. I had paid a total of 3500 dollars for medical forms(500) initial deposit (1600), visa payments (500) insurance (900) not including flights. I kept trying to contact about booking flights in September- Initial quote was 1500 return. Global work and travel never got back to me to pay for my flights. It is now a month before I am meant to be flying out and I have been quoted 4000 dollars flights Au to New York! What a ripoff. Won’t be going as I’m not paying 7000 for a working trip where I am getting paid 2800 American which is 4000 Australian. Working 12 hour days five days a week for three months. I’m practically working for free as my initial deposit is in my contract as paid wages. This company has been sued by the Queensland government before in 2016. I wish I had not been ignorant of this.
