Events and Adventures Withheld vaccination requirements until it was not possible to get required vaccinations to go on trip. WA, CA, CO
They promise high quality candidates to date, but in my experience that is not the case. Don't get sucked in by the advertisements. They are very misleading. And don't be fooled by the interview and background check. They let anyone into the group as long as they pay the membership fee.
I stayed in the club because of the trips. I went on 3 trips that were good but then I think they oversold several trips trying to makeup for lost revenue during COVID. Then they were trying to figure out how to get people off of the trips when everything opened back up. In my experience, they withheld vaccination requirements for a trip I was scheduled to go on until 10 days before the trip. By then it was to late to complete the required vaccinations to go to Greece. Events and Adventures kept ALL of my money. $4,000 Then they told DISCOVER that I canceled out of the trip. I did not cancel, they withheld vaccination requirements until it was to late to preform required vaccinations. According to DISCOVER the Events and Adventures cancellation policy basically makes everything non-refundable unless the company is willing to give a refund. Which, in my experience and in talking to other members who have also had similar experiences with Events and Adventures the company never gives refunds. Even if Events and Adventures themselves cancel the trip! So I lost $4,000 and did not get to go on my dream vacation. Beware of this company!!

I'm a bit confused. You are an adult? You knew ahead of time you were taking a trip to Europe? Isn't the onus on you to make sure you have the appropriate paperwork, such as a passport and vaccinations? Believe it or not, when you buy an airplane ticket, the airline doesn't hound you for months to make sure you have appropriate paperwork, they just assume you are an adult and can handle it. I am not sure why you expect this company to be different.
COVID requirements for foreign countries are not some big secret, there are many EU websites that have detailed requirements for what documentation you need to provide. Sounds like this is 100% your fault.
