REVIEWS OF Global Work & Travel Canada IN British Columbia

Teanna whitecross

It took the stress out of finding a job, Always having support, and thier to answer your questions when you need it, even if they are pointless and silly questions, it has to be the easiest way to work and travel in Canada. 100% go through Work and Travel again.

Callan Flanagan

Global Work and Travel is officially a hack, they make you pay over $2000 dollars and yet you still have to pay for the flights, which are like over a thousand dollars and you need to pay a fee of $425 or more for a working visa, you can save even more money on expedia it's insane. Don't waste your time on this website, you are only loosing money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nathan Blanc

Awesome experience. Made everything really easy. Good to know that there is back up if we need it.

Natalie Embleton

Alex is a absolute legend. This whole experience has been so easy and straight forward. Would definitely recommend Global Work and Travel to anyone interested in a working holiday. They take the hard work out of everything and you just get to enjoy!

I happily booked a trip before all the pandemic issue started growing worldwide. Unfortunately for me , my entire life situation changed and I was no longer eligible to do the Teach abroad program i had picked. My unique situation for the trip was had ABOLUTELY NO administration work done on my profile! Meaning I had NO departure date, NO flight booked, NO living accommodation set up, NO Job arranged for me. SO when I call to inquire about a possible refund I was baffled when they said they are not obligated to list me the administrative work they had done for my package. I even offered to prove to them my situation that I could provided them proof of my job lost and housing lost. I am starting to get back on my feet and the deposit I had with them could greatly improve my situation but no. My first initial call with them I know was a basic sales call as i noticed they didnt even bother to properly write my name in their booking references. The first time i called my booked advisor to let him know of my situation he did not even bother to write an update on my situation , rather he just said to transfer the credit to someone else. I find it saddening as i tried and everyone I inquire had a some sort of dissatifaction from this company, ; either trip accomodations not properly met, issues encountered on trip. And they had no interest in getting further programs from Global.

abby Clark

Amazing and helpful people. They respond quickly and helped me out in times of uncertainty and with any issues that arose. They provided amazing support and it was nice to have a point of contact with expert knowledge of the country while traveling so I wasn't trying to figure it all out on my own.

Joseph Aumau

Where do i begin? lets see, My experience so far with The Global Work& Travel Co has been wonderful. My coordinator Hannah has been very helpful with all the information needed to start my journey as well as her co-workers which was a great help. Thank you very much for this awesome opportunity. P.S. I do not recommend the coffee for future travellers.

Heidi

Such a rewarding experience they provided me. They work with local organizations and people to create an experience you otherwise would not be able to create for yourself and they do it so easily it leaves you with little to nothing to worry about! Ellyse was the person I worked with for my trip to Costa Rica and she couldn't have done a better job! She made sure to check in regularly before my trip to make sure I had everything ready including helping me navigate all the COVID procedures to get into the country. This was my first solo trip and I have to say I don't think it would have been possible without Global Work & Travel or without Ellyse's help!

Philip Ballard

The Global Work & Travel Co. has been a super helpful and amazing company to sign up with. They're all super friendly and bend over backwards to help you find your feet when you get to Canada. Highly recommend for anyone who is thinking about coming to Canada to work. Great, friendly people :) Phil & Karina.

Jaime Harrison

Long story short, I wouldn't be in Canada if it wasn't for Global Work & Travel! They have helped me every step of the way with everything from getting a working VISA, to finding employment, to even suggesting the best places to visit in Canada. On my own, I wouldn't have had any idea where to begin! The staff have been incredibly friendly as well, making it so much easier for me to get over here and have an amazing adventure.

Alice Haddon

Chrissy was really helpful and always there to contact whenever I had any questions. It's really comforting to know that there is somebody informed and willing to help just a call/ email way, especially when moving to a country you've never been before.

B Grime

Staff are super friendly, really helpful and helped me to settle in to a big move to canada. i would recommend this to anyone

Justin Entz

My experience with the Global Work And Travel Co has been absolutely amazing so far. My travel concierge Jaz Riley went above and beyond to make my trip to Australia a reality. It truly is a dream come true for me. She has been there for me every step of the way and anytime I had any questions she was always there ready to help me out. Keep up the great work Jaz and I look forward to making more travel arrangements with you in the future. I highly recommend anyone to book their trip with The Global Work And Travel Co. You guys rock!!

Brendan

Whatever you do, do not book anything through this company. The biggest scam of a company out there. They rip you off, make fake promises and are charge extortionately. They use sales tactics and scripts to lure in customers by promising them jobs abroad and a dream trip. This couldn't be further from the truth. They will simply arrange your airfare (at a higher than market price) and cut ties with you when you land in your destination. I don't know how anyone leaves them positive reviews (besides their employees who are encouraged to do so) this company are nothing more than con artists. Whatever you do - stay away!

Brian Schmidt

SCAM. Do your homework people. Travel by yourself. You'll have more fun and save a bunch of money.

Emily MacIntosh

This company straight up stole $1000 from me. They promised me help with getting a VISA, setting up a job and finding accomidations. They did none of the above. When i was on the phone with the agent she told me this whole shpeel about all the great things she would do for me, said I had to pay first and after I had I told her my plan to go for 3 months and she said she wouldnt help me unless i stayed for 6 months. I said I would and then she still never helped me. This is a SCAM. Do not give them any money.

Thomas Johnston

Catie Dobson (Catiecrazee)

Very helpful in securing my Canadian Visa and a job. Able to answer every question I've put their way and they're always easy to get in touch with.

Ally Donnelly

This was my first big overseas trip to Canada and Global really made every step of the process easy and stress free! Very reliable and friendly staff who make you feel like you're in safe hands. I would highly recommend for inexperienced and first time travelers :)

Olivia Reilly

Alex from the Global Working Travel co. was very helpful. She kept on top of everything I needed to do and was always polite. She helped me with anything I needed help with and always did her best to make sure she could get an answer for any question I had. Overall going through Global was a good idea.

TILESHA SANDBACH

Anastasia has been an absolute Gem! Would totally recommend

hamish fenwick

Global has taken me from Australia to Costa Rica, England and now Canada. Cannot stress enough how great of a company this is - even during COVID the help I recieved was outstanding (Sorry Anastasia)

Cameron White

Would not recommend if you're looking for volunteer opportunities.

Laekin Anania

Extremely helpful throughout my experience so far. Very informative with a bunch of information I would've forgotten about or not have thought to ask questions about. Staff are all super friendly and are travelers themselves so are quick to offer great suggestions/spots that they have also experienced first-hand. I have only been here for a day or so and already feel welcome, I know I would not have felt this content or safe if I chose to do it all alone. Thanks Global!

Alex Bechard

Great service, amazing people, awesome experience

Munnie AG.

Called 3 times no one pickup the phone during business hours

Steven Gregory

great company, the travel conceirge was helpful in setting up tours and where the best places are to stay. always there to support you if you need it.

Zak Challinor

Super friendly staff and good local knowledge!

Hope Johnson

I had the total privilege of working with Jess and Stacey! From the phone calls that started the whole travel process, they both got me stoked for the adventure to come! Both were so helpful, kind, and patient with all the questions i had. They seriously kill it at their jobs! Absolute naturals! They were checking in and were always open to any questions I had or something that I needed to change! I couldn't have asked for better people to work with! They seriously are with you every step of the way! Totally recommend!

M. Murphy

My global work and travel representative, Mary, was great. She kept me informed of everything I needed to know for my experience and helped me through each step. The flight to Canada was difficult, though this was entirely down to problems at Toronto airport and had nothing to do with Global work and travel.4 Overall I am very happy with my experience.

Marisa Harvey

My boyfriend and I both went through The Global Work & Travel Co. It was really easy to deal with them. Before we left on our trip, if we had any questions, we could just email our coordinator and she would get back to us that same business day with helpful information. When we arrived, they made it really easy to open a bank account, get a SIN number and other things that are daunting when moving to a new country. Would recommend going if you are not confident with doing it by yourself.

Evan Anderson

My experience with the Global team has been unreal. it is making my working holiday stress free because they cover all the bases. Everything is done step by step and is super easy. Definately worth every cent!!

Taylor Scott

Had a really positive experience. Trip coordinators and everyone I was in contact with were very patient with me considering how slack I was at getting everything payed on time and getting documents on time etc. Got the first job we were offered which made the whole experience so easy. It was good that everything is booked for you before you come as airport transfers/long haul flights really take everything out of you. Orientation was really helpful. You get a one year membership with HI hostels which is awesome and 25% off greyhounds and other things which is awesome. Would definitely recommend using these guys!

Daniel Cocker

Mary was an extremely helpful with everything and made my experience with global happen perfectly! Thanks so much Mary your the best!!

100% I wouldn't be in Canada right now if it wasn't for Global! Special thanks to Eimear and Stacey. I signed up before Covid after learning about the age cut off of 35. I was 34 at the time. No one knew we were about to get hit with a global pandemic. When the borders closed, I thought I wouldn't get to go because I didn't have enough time with my age. Loads of people online said that you don't need a company, just go here, do this, do that. I didn't have time on my side and I had never done anything like this before, so I made the decision to use Global. I still followed all the online forums and groups but to be honest, most of the time, I found the free support to not be very helpful. Eimear helped me with absolutely every step. She even told me what to write on forms and in letters she answered the most random questions and was (still is) always super friendly. She has been the main point of contact for me and my knight in sparkly, glitter armour. Stacey was my Travel Concierge. She was super helpful organising flights. My exemption to leave the country didn't come through before my flights (not Stacey's fault - it was just due to unpredictable times with the pandemic). Stacey managed to cancel my flights so that I did not get charged as a no show. She kept in constant communication with me, booked me a hotel, another Covid test, new flights and it all worked out great. After going through the process, I can see how so much of the free advice you get online is either wrong, incomplete or just not explained very well. If I had not signed up with Global, at 35 and a half, I would not have made it here before turning 36. The entire team is excellent! Thanks so much Eimear and Stacey for making this happen!

Shavarntè Rigby

Overall has been a really good experience, only downside would be the times in between applying for jobs, and waiting for a response. but everything came together in the end to make the start to our trip awesome!!

Michael Mendoza

Train Lover

Stacey has been great in organizing my trip home. Although i have not made it home just yet, she has definitely hope put my mind a little more at ease

Alexander Fisher

Pretty happy with Global! Just having arrived in Vancouver they've made everything pretty bloody simple and helped out with the basics before arrival and after (SIN, mobile numbers etc). Off to my resort this week with my job which was lined up perfectly with my resume and my desires. Stoked!

Emily Jarred

They were so helpful and provided everything I needed for a working holiday in Canada. I had lots of job opportunities and the streamlined the whole process. The orientation when in Vancouver very informative and was nice to put a face to a name. I would definitely recommend this to anyone considering doing a working holiday.

Matt Morley

Global Work and Travel have been incredibly helpful throughout my whole experience of traveling, making everything super easy for me and my buddy to work and travel together in Canada!

Ann O'War

While some of their help was great, if I had to do it again, I would save myself the money and do everything myself. They overcharge for everything and if you do enough research and join Facebook groups for people who are also going to your country of choice, it's fairly easy to do yourself.

Portia Cruz

Reece was my trip coordinator and Stacey helped organize all of my traveling details. I don't even know where to begin! They were both so patient with me, thorough, and were always so happy and helpful. I always felt so comfortable and eager to go on the trip, they both seriously influenced my desire to leave as they increased my own excitement. The staff really made it worth it. Thank you guys for all of your help!!

Lisa Cook

For the majority of my time organising the trip I dealt with Chrissy and she is a very helpful and lovely person. At times it was frustrating with the lack of job opportunities I initially received but this could have also been due to the late start to the winter season. I would have liked to have organised a job before arriving in Canada but I was offered after only having been here 3 days and overall I am happy with the service.

Yen Lam

When I initially decided to do a season overseas, I didn't really know when or where I wanted to do it. (I'm from Melbourne, Australia). I looked up google and Global Work and Travel Co. were one of the first options to come up. I navigated through their website and made an enquiry. Within 24hrs I was contacted and pretty much signed up straight away. I guess the things that drew me were the support I would be given from the steps needed to get my work visa, job opportunities, to support 24/7 from when I arrived and other perks as well. I worked with about 5 different people from the company and it was good to be able to work with people from different departments even though it got a bit confusing sometimes. Each member of the team was efficient, helpful and responsive, and I appreciated this aspect of the experience as I like to get things done. The downsides were the job opportunities available. I got 3, however wished that I were given a few more. I feel that this may be part of the nature of seasonal work and dependent on partner employers and weather, as well as your particular experiences in your cv. That being said, my choice in the end was Blue Mountain, Ontario and I am super excited to be heading there early next week. Tips: Keep in mind that you can book your own flights and insurance if the cost is slightly unmanageable, I found that depending on where you came from, this varied but was happy to pay the price for ease and efficiency. Arriving in Canada was easy enough, the process from customs through to attaining a working visa took around 90min as the airport was very busy and hostel was 30min from the airport via aerocar. The hostel is fantastic, clean, free breaky, discounts and providing true Canadian/Vancouverian (haha) experiences. Oh and the weather was a mix of rainy, cloud and sun. That's a Vancouver November for you. But I was still able to do the activities I set out to do- bike ride around Stanley Park, head to Granville Island Market and will be going out to the Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain tomorrow. I definitely prepared with a rain poncho and umbrella. Apart from the touristy stuff, orientation was straight forward and I finally got to meet my trip coordinator (Chrissy) and was able to complete the final requirements for working in Canada (bank account and social security). Thanks so much Global Work and Travel.Co! This is definitely a bucket list item checked off my list. :) (4.5stars) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

Brendan Frawley

Makes immigrating to a new country a breeze, very helpful with necessary banking, working information and awesome travel guides.

Mikaela Byers

Excellent service with these guys ! Nothing was too much and they were always quick to answer any of my questions. Every person i talked to was so lovely i could not recommend them more!

Brandon Fein

I have just arrived for my Canadian experience with Global. So far they have been very helpful. I signed up a year ago and was meant to come last year but couldnt make it and it was super easy to hold the trip off. They got me a job super easy the first time. But this second time, there were less job opportunities and it was harder.

Kaleb Ludlow

Bunch of great people who were always willing to help out whenever it was needed. Very organised and always know what is going on at all times. You need to be relatively organised yourself but they are always there. Would definitely travel with them again.

Antony Walker

Travelling with Global has been excellent. They help you every step of the way so that even something as daunting as travelling halfway around the world to work was made a great experience. I can't thank my co-ordinator Alex enough for what she did for me and my fiancee. :) Happy days!

Mackenzie Eckert

Very helpful and friendly staff who are always there to provide assistance and advice.

mia olivo

I love it

Christopher Noble

Perfect orientation for Canada, go through everything you need to know and more. Very friendly and welcoming, great to meet everyone in person! Big thanks to Hannah for all her help :)

Barossa Community Church

Global work and travel were very helpful when things seemed to be falling apart and did all they could to make my preparations easy and stress-less.

Carlie Paterson

The team at Global have been amazing from the first moment i clicked "more information" on their website nearly 3 years ago. They have been everything I needed to help me get traveling. Especially through covid times the team have responded to our requests, concerns and needs quickly and have put everything we could possibly need at our fingertips. Anastasia has been incredible with organising our job offers, transport and giving us the lay of the land. I highly recommend her for any trips you are thinking about taking in the future!

Tristan Forkin

Excellent opportunity to travel to a different country and was made super easy through the help of global work and travel.

Bradley Lindenberg

Global Work & Travel Co. has been an amazing help with finding work and helping me to set myself up here in Canada with regards to housing and employment possibilities. I couldn't think of better help!!

Billie Slip

I found Global so helpful travelling overseas by myself for the first time. The whole process was outlined for me and the first job that they sent me to interview for was perfect for my personality and interests. I was worried as it took a while for them to send me the job opportunity but when they did send it to me it was perfect and I got the first opportunity I applied for.

Moll Lyst

Definitely recommend planning your trip with Global work and travel! They have the friendliest staff who will go to every length to help you out with your trip, helping you find job opportunities and arranging the travel, accommodation, banking etc. They have answered all my questions and made sure that this whole process has been very easy and comfortable and with the best deals. They know hat they're talking about and will treat you like family, DO IT!!

Fallon Treloar

Great Experience

Panda Gamer

My initial travel had been delayed due to COVID but they helped me switch to a new fun filled working adventure in Canada and it is amazing definitely a once in a lifetime experience. Waking up and seeing the snowy mountains, walking up it is breathtakingly magical and I am so thankful to all the team that made sure I got there safely.

Hayley Wheeler

I can't speak highly enough about these guys, they helped me make a time of a live adventure happen. Helped me every step of the way, I would send and email and matt would ring me to talk me through what I needed to do next or how to do something. The communication has be brilliant, they listened to what I want to get out of my trip so they could provide me with the best experience. Thank you so much global work and travel, you've been fantastic. Highly recommended ????????

FlightXCaptain

Has been a great experience for me organised everything i asked for and more. were supporting me through the whole process via Email Skype and direct phoning them. Can be a bit pricey at times but its expected when going travelling and the assurance of a job at the other end makes it worth while.

Sarah Fisher

Global have been so great from the beginning, especially during all the uncertainty of COVID 19. They are always providing help quickly and everyone is so friendly. Would definitely recommend this amazing team if you are looking for a working holiday.

Brittany Mark

awesome staff and service!

Daniel Sait

My trip Co-ordinator and the rest of Global Work and Travel have been so much help getting me to Canada, There was so much that needed to be done, but with their help it made the whole process very easy. I am having such a great time here now, and I there's still a lot more to come I am excited for. Definitely recommend just going for it if you are thinking about it, you won't regret it. Thanks for everything GWAT :)

R S

Stay as far away as you can from this scam of a company - I promise you that you don't need to pay almost $2000 to find a job, set up a bank account and purchase a phone plan but these people will convince you that you need to.

Rachel Nicholls

Urte Liepuoniute

My experience with Global Work and Travel team was just great! Coordinators were really helpful and fast to answer all my questions, everything went easily and smoothly, I felt welcomed and well-informed at all stages of my Canada adventure! Special thanks to Jen the coordinator, who was the sweetest helper during my preparation time.

Dayne Furness

Orientation has filed in any little gaps i had in the big picture of Canadian life and Trina has made this transition as easy as it possibly could of been. this should of been stressful but Trina has been there for any questions iv had and been very reassuring and great at explaining the processes and what to expect when going on a working holiday.

Veronica Silvestre

They charged me for a 12-month working visa and only found out at immigration at Vancouver Airport that as an Italian passport holder I was entitled to a 6-month work permit. I paid for someone to figure things out and they obviously did not. I also found a job myself before I moved to Canada. Thank you GW&T!

Maja

Lovely, beautiful people! . I would have liked a little more information on the website instead of contacting the company to get more informaton on their services. Other than that, its been a great experience and Hannah has been a great contact and responded quickly with any questions I had.

nicole campbell

Been very helpful and very good with getting what i need and where to go. always there when i needed to for anything and always happy to answer anything.

Jeffrey Rodgers

Great workers, amazing helpers and just all round outstanding people. They made me feel very welcome to Canada!!

Benjamin Tossell

kevin is a legend

Tyla Rae

Orientation had a lot of info and Bree was great! There's a lot more of Canada i want to see and I didn't even realise how much I wanted to see until orientation.

Alex Snowden

Global Work and Travel have helped me every step of the way planning my experience in Canada. Jen helped sort me out a great job in Banff and was able to answer any questions I had. The introduction/orientation session was really informative and made it really easy to get everything set up when I arrived. I would definitely recommend Global Work and Travel!

Alex Roberts

Was a great experience to get the trip organised, everything was done excellently and very quickly

Leroi Hank Williams

Hannah is a pleasure to deal with, always very responsive and a massive help. Going with Global just took the stress and uncertainty out of arranging everything required to set myself up in Canada. Would recommend.

Erin Shelton

Really good! I would definitely recommended going through this company.

Tom Richards

The whole team was very helpful and organised when I arrived in Vancouver and made me feel very welcome. The travel was all smooth sailing and there was no dramas. All the coordinators were very helpful throughout the process and my coordinator Sam has kept me up to date with everything going on.

Jarred Roberts

Very informative, well looked after and valuable hard-copy documents/information given out to assist in all travel requirements. Good recommendations and loads of help.

megan louise

Very helpful with sorting everything out including your job, banks etc. All the staff are friendly, my trip coordinator is Alex and she has been a big help, very happy and welcoming and made me feel a lot more at ease about moving out here to Canada!

Liza Downtown

Coming over was amazing. Once i arrived everything was sorted and there was no stress involved with setting up bank account or accommodation. The start up process was a tad confusing to begin with but once i had a set coordinator everything worked perfectly. Special thanks to Alex at Global Work Canada.

Brooke Chafer

The organised transport from the airport to the hostel was very helpful after a long flight.

Mia Walsh

global work and travel was actually a really great first entrance to canada. Very helpful with getting over here and letting me know all the information and how to sort out everything. I was skeptical of the company at first but once I got here and sorted things out it was really good :) totally worth the money and no regrets!!

Mckenzie Scott

Great experience with Global. All coordinators I had the pleasure of corresponding with were all friendly and very helpful whenever I had questions. Would definitely recommend Global to my friends as it is easy to use. Thanks to all of the people who helped me with my Canadian Journey :)

thomas asimus

Lucas Murphy

Ive found global work travel very good with my coordinator Hannah.Ive found them very help full or organizing all my needs to start working in canada.

Murray Thorpe

Really helpful and friendly workers who will assist you in having a great time away. Their expertise and resources really separate them from other travel companies.

Ella Horvat

Amy Familic

My experience with Global Work & Travel Co has been amazing, not only did it help me make my big move but my trip coordinator Hannah helped me every step along the way which i found extremely helpful as I probably wouldn't have committed to the move if it weren't for getting the help I needed as I had no idea where to begin!

Stephanie White

I had a wonderful experience with Global, and with Alex as my trip coordinator. She was always there to answer all of the silly questions I had, and was incredibly supportive and enthusiastic about my trip. Would definitely recommend and will be using them again for future travels!

Brodie “savagemango” Clayfield-Michalski

Great customer service and all round great people to work with

Maggie Byrne

I have had a flawless experience will the Global Travel Co so far! They have helped me with everything, being super supportive with any doubts or worries that I have had along the way. I have had a particularly great experience getting to know Anna Avery as my arrivals coordinator, she has been amazing and made me feel so comfortable and confident in my decision to do this trip! 10/10 would recommend this company!!

Mitchell Nott

Very helpful from the start and always happy to answer any questions. Everyone within the company is extremely happy and very friendly. My experience so far has been amazing and I would recommend Global Work Co to anyone wishing to work and travel!

Stephanie

Chrissy is an amazing coordinator who always kept in touch. When I had an questions regarding flights, tours, work or Canadian documents, Chrissy was able to answer and help with them. Would definitely recommend Global Work & Travel Co. as it makes your working holiday that much easier.

Diana Saunders

When you decide you want to travel to the other side of the world and work the thought is incredibly daunting when you have no idea where to even start. From the first phone call, to the day I finally landed in Canada the whole experience has just been great with someone always there to answer the 1000 questions I had. Jen has been incredible and so helpful from checking my Visa application to finding me the perfect job that would suit me and my needs. I dont ever think I would have been able to do this on my own without the help from Global Work & Travel Co. By using a company instead of doing this on my own the whole experience has been stress free, the only thing that they couldn't help me with was packing my bags.

Max Wayte

My overall experience with global work & Travel has been excellent, Hannah has been my trip coordinator and she has been absolutely amazing in helping me organise my trip and talk me through everything, she replies quickly and answers any questions I have. Getting over here with flights and accommodation was easy and well set up without any stress .

Kieran Tamaotai

Going through Global Work and Travel co. made this trip so much easier. I felt comfortable while I was traveling knowing that most things were taken care of when arriving in Canada. Great to be introduced to everyone and given local knowledge of the place.

Tiona Wikenheiser

Never mind Global Work and Travel’s pushy sales tactics they don’t actually provide any service to you. I booked a volunteer trip to Thailand to this past January. Once i arrived i found all my reservations were canceled. I called many times with no answer. At this point i was in a panic as this was the first time i had ever travelled alone. Once i had finally received a call back the lady was EXTREMELY rude. I was told there was nothing they could do and the lady actually told me that it was my problem........... I have no clue what the purpose of paying them was. Save yourself the stress and money and book it yourself.

Amanda Denniss

I highly recommend using the Global Work &Travel Co. Their customer service is some of the best I have ever encountered. They managed to take what is fundamentally a hugely daunting experience and turned it into a stress-free and carefree one. To quantify, I give them a 10 out of 10.

ThaJacko8594

Awesome experience, especially if you have never done much travelling or never been to another country. They point you in the right direction and give you step by step instructions all the way. Having a job secured before even arriving has been the biggest relief. Definitely recommend.

Cassandra Maiolino

This experience was really rushed and forced to make a quick sale. Alot of information was very misleading. Everything was overcharged. If you are looking for an experience I highly urge you to do your homework yourself. It will save you so much time and money. Looking back now I could have done 2 big travels with what I spent on just 1, that didnt even work out when getting to my destination. I'm even being charged by this company to change my flight with the same airline.... Plus the quotes of flights you will get through this organization are far more expe sive then booking your own. Its ridiculous. If I hadn't been so rushed through this company to book and pay and tried mapping out my own travels I would not be out hundreds and hundreds of dollars. My agent also told me she would touch base with me when I arrived. It's been over a week and I just got an email from her, and not helpful at all. I'm at the point where I dont care to get a dime back. I'm just glad to be done with this.

Kelly Van Der Heide

I signed up for more information and 3 days later blocked them as I received numerous calls, emails and texts a day. Obviously very desperate and appeared to be a scam.

cullamanjaro

Alex was great!

Aaron Jake

The entire team from The Global Work & Travel Co. was so helpful throughout the entire process. Getting to Canada for school and work wouldn't have been this easy without them. I appreciate their patience, kindness. and what they provided me. I recommend Global to anyone who is looking for a great experience. Thanks to everyone who made this journey possible.

Dean Hines

Every step of the way I was in contact with a Global travel consultant which helped me in every way possible. From getting my visa sorted to setting up job opportunities and interviews. Every question I've had has been met with an answer to help ease any issues I had raised. Fantastic company to deal with and my personal consultant has gone over and beyond to satisfy every need and query i had.

Shaan Brems

My experience with Global Work and Travel has been great! Alex has been very helpful and provided us with lots of information to help us with our journey to Canada. Would defiantly recommend going through them!

We booked our trip through Alex and truly appreciate everything she has done for us! She definitely helped us through the visa process as well as accommodation, airport pick up and drop off and everything in between! we will definitely continue to book through her and would recommend her to anyone looking to book through Global.

Reece Campbell

All the staff are super friendly and really helpful with everything. could not recommend them enough to anyone looking to work and travel overseas.

Hannah C

Global Work has helped me prepare and organise working abroad. Even when I've had complications they have been very patient and helped me with all my queries, and assisted rearranging my plans where needed. Looking forward to working with them through my overseas working experience.

Jayta Preller

Alex was amazing. From the get go she was the most helpful, friendly person I dealt with from Global. Any question I gave her, she would come back with an answer. She made the whole process so easy and exciting! Would not have wanted anyone else to help us :)

Brittany Ilyn

Fantastic customer service. Was great to be welcomed by a familiar face and have everything explained in detail and set up for me. Thanks to Mary my trip coordinator for making this move stress free.

Malek de Kroon

Excellent

Ruby Elder

Jen was an gem and everything went incredibly smoothly when I arrived! Couldn't have asked for a more helpful trip coordinator full of heaps of handy tips.

Jackson Kennedy

Everything was provided for me in heaps of detail and was all explained really well. Really took the stress away, everything went perfectly.

liam knight

I decided to take the plunge and move to Canada on a working holiday , the whole process was make super easy with Anastasia always at the end of an email to help guide me through the whole journey. Stacey helped me regarding flights and insurances which ran smoothly with her guidance and help along the way . So therefore in my experience with globalworkandtravel , if the nerves are holding you back , please ensure they do what they can to guide you and make it as stress free as possible . i met someone in the airport , who decided to make the move without the assist of a company such as global work and travel , and i soon realised how stress free and smooth my whole journey was from signing up to the program to arriving in canada.

Andrew Legg

Alex is great! very warm and caring. very informative and professional. never had any issue with any question and always heard back from her straight away. definitely made me excited to come over and ready to experience my new journey.

Kimberley Bartlett

Global is a great way to travel! I would definitely recommend this service! I felt safe, sorted and excited with the team members support. I had a lady called Alex and she is awesome! She was there for me in anyway possible and felt like a really good friend not just a person who wants yur money. :-)

Sarah-Jane Simonetti

Mary has been such a great help with finding work and feeling at home with the whole experience. All the information I received was so easy to understand, and helped build the excitement. I would recommend Global Travel and Mary to anyone. Thanks Global team!!

Tom Alderson

Kevin is a legend

Nathan Bridge

its been awesome!

Lina O'Halloran

I couldn't be happier with my experience with Global! The staff are so friendly and helpful, and my coordinator Alex has been a total champ. She has found me a job that fits exactly what I was after, and has been so helpful in organising so many aspects of my working holiday. I definitely recommend Global!

Brad Hunt

Myself and my girlfriend decided to travel through Global and we are so glad we did. Everything has been organized for us which was a massive help as this is the first time heading overseas. Our coordinator Is Trina, so helpful, very responsive with any questions we had and just made this whole trip a breeze. Would recommend traveling with Global to anybody :)

carissa alexiou

alex has been wonderful, been so helpful answering all my question and been amazing.

Julia Reynolds

Zoe Betteridge

I found Josie and the Global Travel & co. in general really helpful and always there to answer any questions or queries I had. The whole process of getting over to Canada and finding work was a lot easier because of Josie and Global, without them it would have taken a lot longer and would have been a lot more stressful!

Rhiannon Jo

My coordinator Jen was amazing! She listened to all of my concerns and answered all of my silly questions. She is so welcoming and it was very comforting to have a friendly face to see when I got to Vancouver for my orientation. I would definitely recommend Global Work & Travel to help you in organising an amazing adventure!

Ben Howbrook

Manipulated google reviews. To whomever is considering Global Work and Travel as an option I strongly recommend putting the effort in yourself and saving the small fortune these guys take from you.

Josh Bugeja

They provide great service to you all the way through you're journey.

Sarah Stuchbery

Jess Cruz

This company is unreliable and does not know what they are talking about. I booked a trip with them to go to London in three months and after I paid them they didn't contact me for three weeks. When they finally contacted me back, they told me that the sales rep had made a mistake and they couldn't sponsor my visa because I am a US citizen looking to go to the UK. I knew from my own research that it was difficult to go to the UK as a US citizen and asked the sales rep about this at least three times and he insisted that there was no issue. They completely messed up all of my plans. I wouldn't trust them again. If I could give zero stars I would!

Chanice Evans

It has been so wonderful working with my Global Coordinator Chrissy, from both in Australia and here in Vancouver. She has helped me with all my inquires and booking accommodation and travel for me to be able to get to my new job in Banff, and made me so comfortable when I arrived for orientation. She has helped make the transition from my life in Brisbane so smooth, and I cant wait for the rest of my trip!

Angela Joson

Always willing to give out a helping hand, very knowledgeable and very very friendly. Alex is amazing and always provides the best service to me whenever i ran into some trouble. Great company

lauren rowe

Great help & staff are friendly & nice. They help you organise all the important things like Visa's & banking which is great when coming to a new country! Thanks :)

Andrew Philpot

have been very helpful with everything i have needed. went with me all the way,plus went at my speed they didn't push me into anything i didn't want to do. would definitely recommend it.

Danny

Hated my working holiday experience but Global was pretty good helpful staff just a shame about my working holiday.

Sarah De Ruyter

it's been great so far, the team are really helpful, friendly and are always there to assist!

Reanne Ackroyd

I have been very pleased with Global as it has given me the peace of mind knowing that i'm not by myself and they have helped me every step of the way! I would love to point out that my coordinator Alex has been AMAZING!!

Emily Harrington

Have had a really positive experience with Global. My coordinators have been really helpful with any questions and when getting to Canada they were really helpful setting up everything I needed for employment and accommodation.

Caitlin Hodgkinson

Alex has been an amazing help and easily answered any queries we had. We've had a great orientation, and Alex was really fun and easy to talk to!

Maddie Combe

Very helpful- answered any & all questions I had regarding the trip. I really couldn't have organised everything without the help from Global Work & Travel Co!

Nathan Lee

I have just got to Vancouver and the Global Work and Travel Company have been excellent in there service and helping us get started. 10/10

Nikola Greer

Alex was a very helpful trip coordinator and would recommend her to anyone! She has made me feel very comfortable and most importantly has made me very excited about my working holiday experience! Everything she explained to me was straight forward and she answered all the questions I had. Overall I am very happy with the service I was given.

Rance Clarke

It was a pretty smooth experience, my only criticism is that there were only a couple of opportunities offered to me that made it feel like I had to accept the first offer I received. But the staff are friendly and helpful and the travel arrangements are good.

Ebonée Briggs

Going through Global Work and Travel made my first trip so easy!! I would recommend it for anyone travelling overseas for the first time on a working holiday. My coordinator was very informative and explained everything thoroughly and ensured i understood and was comfortable with everything. Thanks Global!!

Cameron Lewis

At first I thought Global was a scam but decided to follow through and go on a working holiday to Australia. Their HQ there is actually very professional. Unfortunately their organizational and communication skills are lacking. After being in Australia for over 2 weeks without a job, I had to find my own accommodation as the first four nights only are covered by Global. During the process of finding me work, I specifically told them I would like work in hospitality as I have a strong background bartending. Only 1 of the 4 opportunities they found for me involved what I actually asked, it’s like they didn’t really listen. The job was also very far away from where I was located so I had to buy a plane ticket to get there. None of which was covered by Global itself. In the end I came back to Canada after the third week. Overall, the communication really sucked. They really just try to suck the money out of you when it comes to flights/insurance/expense. Would not recommend, either go on a working holiday on your own or use another company.

Amber Delaunoy

would recommend global work and travel. whilst before the trip there wasnt too much going on, as soon as i entered canada anastasia was so so helpful and no question was too much. would definatly reccomend if your going to a country where you have never been before:)

James Cross

Highly recommend for solo's, very informative and cool facts to help plan your next trip around Canada.

Meadhbh Teague

Josh Tam

Global, was amazing! They did all the heavy work and set me up with everything I needed very quickly. They are very flexible in when to come over and were very patient with me. Chissy is awesome and you know she's got your back whenever you need her! Definitely recommend partnering up with these friendly people. Just all round good people :)

Hunter Eva

Megan , Jaz, Rochelle and the team were very professional and extremely helpful with my working holiday in Canada! Thanks guys!

Ciaran Collier Holdcroft

Would recommend Global Visas to anyone looking to travel and experience a working holiday. Friendly staff who couldn't do enough for you and all ways willing to help from the starting process to when you land. Five stars across the board.

Brad Prouting

Everything happens once you get here!! Believe and trust in yourself, Hannah has been really lovely and made us feel right at home.

Raymond Dillingham

Nicole Buchanan

They are super friendly and helpful! They helped organise our whole trip and help set everything up for us!

Lachlan Woolley

I have been dealing with the work and travel co for the past 5 months and my coordinator with Alex. Working with Alex has been excellent because she has been extremely informative and patient especially with me as i have most of the time that she has called i have been working. She has been excellent with getting us interviews and the constant updates of our progress.

Jade Burgess

Really good experience, made coming to the other side of the world a lot less stressful! Jen was so helpful and her and the other team members took care of all my arrangements and questions. Would highly recommend it to other people!

Mili Ratu

Alex has really looked after me from start to finish, she's checked in regularly to make sure I'm okay and everything is on track. Global has provided me with multiple job opportunities and I'm really happy with the support they've given.

Matt Buckland

Fun, Friendly Company to help get started in Working & Traveling.

Miranda Jamieson

Very happy with our service from Global Work and Travel. Everyone was extremely helpful from start to finish.

Shaun McCrohan

Having Global Work and Travel organise my working holiday at Canada has been a good experience. Alex has been a very nice person to talk to and done all that she could with the limits that the company permits.

Kelly Forde

Global work and travel have been amazing in helping me with my travels over to Canada, without Jen and the team their is no way I would have been capable of packing up my life and moving to the other side of the world. Would 100% recommend to anyone thinking of travelling overseas.

emily seidl

I have absolutely loved working with Global Work & Travel Co. My Coordinator helped me every step of the way to book my working holiday to Canada. She kept in close contact throughout the entire time and made sure I was well up to date and knew exactly what I needed to do. Would definitely work through them again.

Brodie Thomson

very well organised

Kieran Smith

My experience of The Global Work and Travel Co has been incredible. My travel coordinator was Alex and she was amazing. I was kept up to date with everything from the Visa process to what things I should bring to Canada. I could not have made this trip without this company so thank you very much to all at The Global Work and Travel Co. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to do this kind of trip!

Martin King

Staff were very helpful and friendly, helped alot with getting us sorted in an easy to understand way. Will be recommending to everyone interested in travelling

Ellen Reader

Decided to use The Global Work and Travel to help my organise my working holiday because it seemed less daunting than trying to figure everything out myself. They have been so helpful throughout the process of organizing my trip and helping me sort everything out, from helping me with my visa to finding me my job. Would 100% recommend!!!

Melissa Infield

Kassidy Baumle

This program was so easy to work with! They are very friendly people and they make the travelers life so much easier. They always provide you with so much information, and answer all questions quickly. I am so happy to have worked with this organization for a big trip like this! Thanks to Global, I will definitely be travelling more with them!

DJ Llewellyn

Ellyse was very helpful and took care of so many arrangements for me. From my arrival at the airport, to starting my classes at the TEFL school nearby, everything went smoothly. She did a great job.

Jack Stevens

james mcmillan

The Global work and Travel team helped me achieve my dream of moving to Canada, helping me out with job prospects, flights and setting my bank details up. Money well spent.

bronte strauss

The Global Work & Travel Co. is amazing! I went with them for my first trip overseas and they were a massive help. They organised everything and answered all my questions. I was nervous that it would be difficult to make friends, but Global organised a party for all their travelers to meet up and it was the best!! Trina, My coordinator, is so nice, funny and extremely helpful! I would definitely recommend traveling with Global :)

Jono Calabrese

Great service, always helpful and easy to talk to, Alex is great in sorting out all stuff great in getting job interviews for both me and my friend,

Lachie Sverns

Global have been really helpful in getting my trip to Canada organised. They help out with a lot of the small things you don't think about when you're wanting to move to another country such as taxes etc. I would recommend the Global Work & Travel Co. to anyone wanting to have a lot of the stresses of travelling taken care of by somebody else.

Irene Choi

Going to Africa was always a distant dream of mine- but it wasn't until the COVID-19 pandemic that forced me out of my comfort zone and leave Canada to do some good in this world. I found Global Work and Travel- and from there, it was a piece of cake. Reece, my trip coordinator was AMAZING. He made sure I was ready to go to my trip to Tanzania and answered all my questions/concerns I had along the way. I had no issues leaving the country- despite what you may think. And just like that, I was ready to go to the child orphanage. It was the most amazing experience- the kids, the scenery and the people you meet along the way. They made it so easy- and I am so sad that I didn't find them sooner. You will not be disappointed- trust me. Go explore the world! The world is waiting for you...

Hélène Valot

Very professional company and great advice provided. Alex, my coordinator has been doing an amazing job to help me go through all the steps of my departure and arrival in Canada. She took into account my expectations to provide with the best service. She is really supportive and concerned about travellers to make the most of their experience abroad.

Sam Boyle

Would highly recommend Global Work & Travel if your looking to do a working holiday. I originally tried to organise my Canada Visa myself and was struggling until I found these guys. They helped me out with every process along the way and it were super easy to contact. Being assigned to an agent the whole time made a really personal experience too. Keep in mind to be flexible with your travel plans though as they cannot achieve the impossible and find your dream job in an the perfect town. Hannah Henderson was my trip cooridator in Vancouver and made everything easy with prompt emails and answering all my questions. As long as you do your side of the paperwork and send them the info they need you definitly wont be dissapointed. Thanks alot Global and cheers Hannah, Dylan and Mark for the help 5 stars!!!

Emma Sargent

really great first meeting, loads of info

Todd

Hannah was amazing with helping me find work and a place to stay. Always knew what i need and was very helpful, she is also very beautiful.

Chelsea Donovan

Global work and travel have been amazing for the working holiday program they are always there if you ever have any questions. They're super helpful with everything like getting the visa organised and helping with the job opportunity.

Jargon One

Outstanding support team. Always keen to help, set us up in Vancouver easily

Liam Fitzpatrick

Everyone was very helpful, any questions that I had were answered. Once the only issue I had was that I wasn't aware that I needed a ESTA at the airport in due to a connecting flight.

Ruby Donoghoe

Great, friendly and very helpful staff! The staff definitely make this company worth signing up too. I was hesitant about how expensive it was however all the helpful hands and discount coupons, maps etc, totally make it worth it. Thanks so much for this wonderful experience!

sarah harris

I am so happy that I chose to go with Global Work & Travel. It took the stress out of so many aspects of this trip! The customer service from all of the staff is incredible. I really felt like I had a friend coaching me through every aspect of the journey. They helped me get the job I desperately wanted! The orientation was friendly, professional and helped us familiarize ourselves with everything Canada! The choice to move to Canada and take on a new job is a daunting one, but having people to help you every step of the way who really care about your experience made it a very smooth transition. Thank you so much to Jen and everyone who helped me!

Ayla Uysal

would 100% go through this company if you are planning a trip overseas where you would like to work as well. Super easy transition through the whole process and all the team are very friendly.

Todd Hewitt

Before I met Alex I was more lost than a blind man in a never ending forest. She is the only reason I have been able to make it to the great country of Canada, without her my entire trip would not have been possible. THANK YOU ALEX YOU ARE THE BEST!

Scarlett Money

Keano

Global Work & Travel Co, Made life so much easier with helping out doing the working Visa online, they made applying for different jobs a lot easier which was a relief. My two trip coordinator's have been a fantastic help. I appreciated all the help and tips they've suggested to me, overall they have been a big help on my first journey overseas solo! Would highly recommend Global to any traveler's going overseas for a working holiday experience.

Michael Fox

Zac Bailey

the whole experiance has been a dream everything has run smoothly Alex has been really good to deal with super helpfull with any questions or anything we need. woud recomend.

Sherry Crowley

All round I have had a good experience with global travel and it has made travelling to Canada very easy. I have had a better experience working with the Canadian department, it was just much easier as it was one person to help sort out everything out. Where as the Australian side there are so many departments and every time you finish a step you get new person for the next step. This then leads to being a bit confused as who you need to talk about a certain things. But my coordinator in Canada was always there to help me out and fix any problems.

lucas macri

Very manipulative in trying to get sales. While they were helpful in the beginning of the trip, they didn’t listen to my concerns or offer any help with new job placements. My coordinator changed 4 times and never even spoke to 2 of them. If I was to do it again I would save my money and just do it all my self. I’ve already gotten myself 2 new jobs without their help. Don’t recommend to anyone.

Catherine Anderson

ben schaefer

extremely helpful with everything i asked, found me a job well before i entered Canada, and have been continued to been extremely helpful throughout my journey

Ashley Treeby

The Global team made it super easy for me to get to Canada, super grateful for their support and advice with every question or issue I had and being with me every step of the way!

Jack Clayworth

Amazing team, making a dream a reality

Campbell Hare

orientation was great. free beers was awesome. great people and very welcoming

Rachael Ebrington

I found the experience of going through global incredible and Alex was absolutely incredible in helping me with the whole process and all of my questions. She made planning this trip so much easier for me and made me feel excited and less nervous about making a huge change in my life.

oscar stewart

Super passionate and enthusiastic staff making applying and finding a job abroad extremely easy. Love the service they provide. Supportive and motivational all the way through the process.

jessieann davenport

Service was great but super over priced. I felt like it was just cost pilling up after cost that they didn't really disclose at the start. Found alternative travel insurance etc for the same service but a third of the price. Concierge was really helpful and prompt but sometimes it was a little bit annoying when I would ask several questions in one email and only get a response to a few or ask a question then refer back to later in a different email and \i would get a different response. Also hard to keep track of all the trip coordinators/travel concierge/flights people/etc.

Shaun White

I had been wanting to do a working holiday for a long time but the idea sometimes got abit daunting. The global team were great, helping steer me in the right direction everystep of the way. Knowing that I have contacts and a safety net in a country I have never been to before made the decsion so much easier. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to travel and experience diffent parts of the world.

Ruby Heaney

Global work and travel has helped us both the whole way booking our trip to Canada. Alex has been a massive help answering all our emails and phone calls. Thank you team global! You all rock

Mitchell Kelly

It was great. Time difference sucked.

Liam Chambers

really good planning and organisation within the business, they make organizing a trip away so easy and take all the hard work out of it, highly recommend!
