Our verdict on each
mydays
mydays suits gift buyers who want a long redemption window and room to change their mind, since vouchers stay valid for 36 months and can be exchanged. Entry pricing stays approachable for the same buyer, and the range is wide enough that a voucher rarely feels tied to one occasion.
Virgin Experience Days

Entry prices of £9.99 sit above Jochen Schweizer at €5.90.

Pros and cons
mydays
Pros
- Vouchers stay valid for 36 months, and the median validity across the brands compared here is 12 months, so a slow booking decision rarely wastes the gift.
- Vouchers are exchangeable, so a pick that suits the buyer rather than the recipient can still be changed.
- A catalog of 10,448 experiences gives room to match a budget and a mood rather than settle for the nearest thing.
Cons
- On price from, mydays sits at 9 of 53 brands, so it is not the cheapest entry in the list.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, and live chat is not among the listed channels for quick questions.
- The gift runs in Germany, AT and CH only, so a recipient based elsewhere has nothing on the voucher to use.
Virgin Experience Days
Pros
- Vouchers stay valid for 12 months and are exchangeable, so a gift that lands badly can be changed rather than wasted.
- The catalog spans experience days, spa and driving, adding driving and adventure to the spa, food and drink and attraction mix that DealToday does not carry.
- More than from 5,000 experiences are listed, giving couples and families a shortlist worth comparing.
Cons
- Entry prices of £9.99 sit above Jochen Schweizer at €5.90 and mydays at €5.90.
- Voucher validity of 12 months matches the typical window on the site, while the upper quartile reaches 19.5 months, so it is not the longest runway on offer.
- Coverage is a single market, GB, so the catalog does not reach buyers who live elsewhere.
Who each suits
mydays
Who it suits
- Buyers who want driving and attraction tickets in one catalog, where Fever's list covers attractions but no driving.
- Anyone buying a present well ahead of the occasion, since the 36 month window removes the need to guess the date and an exchangeable voucher can still be changed.
- Recipients based in Germany, AT and CH, since a voucher is only usable where the experiences actually run.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers chasing the very cheapest entry, since mydays ranks 9 of 53 brands on price from, so a leaner budget is better served by another name on the list.
- Shoppers who want live chat, since support runs on email, phone and help centre only.
- Gift buyers with a recipient outside DE, AT and CH, where a long voucher window counts for nothing without experiences to book.
Virgin Experience Days
Who it suits
- Buyers after a broad gift: with more than from 5,000 experiences across experience days, spa and driving there is room for a specific taste.
- Gift buyers who need a long runway and a fallback, since vouchers stay valid for 12 months and are exchangeable.
- Couples and families who want to compare spa, driving and attraction days together before choosing.
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers chasing the lowest entry price: Jochen Schweizer and mydays open at €5.90 and €5.90, under the £9.99 starting point here.
- Buyers whose gift must be a driving or adventure day, since DealToday does not list those product types.
- Anyone based outside GB, because the catalog is built for a single market rather than a wider reach.
