My 5-Ticket Rating is based on real experiences, not marketing promises. Built for travellers who want the truth.
What does it mean?


Travelling, although world-wide in nature, is a very personal experience. You know what you want, just not always how to book it.
When preparing to travel, we use many methods to find the perfect place to stay, the most exciting adventures to go on & the best company to rent a vehicle.
We’ve worked with travel & tour companies (the good, the bad & the ugly!) to get the experience we feel we deserve & our monies worth & so should you. Comfort, location, service and value are key factors.
This is why we came up with our 5-Ticket Rating. We will always post honestly about our escapades in hopes that you’ll find them helpful when it’s your turn to adventure.
Here are my parameters:
1 ticket = Hardly worth repeating, but we made it!
2 tickets = Just satisfactory, but glad we went
3 tickets = Good experience, we’ll share with others
4 tickets = Worth a return ticket.
5 tickets = Simply the best. Put it on your bucket list. We’ll be back!
How does it work?

With every trip, we offer feedback to travel companies along with honest views for you, the reader. We rate adventures on a scale of one to five tickets, judged on quality, service, memorability, and price. A perfect ‘Ticket Rating’ of a five gold ticket score means the experience was flawless and we’d eagerly return. Your desire to go back is the ultimate measure of a trip’s worth. Exclusive to My Return Ticket.
