    Ambassador Tours is the place to go if you're planning a vacation. Very professional agency. Our agent Peter Flanders is the guy to contact whatever you need to have a memorable vacation.

    My husband & I have had the pleasure of working with travel agent Maureen Menezes from Ambassador Tours for over 6 years (Hawaii twice, one with our kids & one just us, Cabo, Playa del Carmen, Venice, and Rome.) Over the years she has gotten to know us a little more and knows exactly what we like. She manages all our trips every years, some with kids, and some trips just my husband and I. What I love about Maureen is that you tell her what you're looking for in your vacation, your budget, and she gets right on it. She always has good advice and just makes a vacation....a vacation! We just got back from our trip to Venice and Rome, Italy two days ago and I couldn't be more happier with how everything went on our trip. Maureen handles all the little things you don't think about when your somewhere you've never been. To the simplest things like airport pick ups or to transfers to one location to another. I can't wait to book another trip next year with our kids. Maybe something a little different like a cruise or somewhere like the Bahamas would be nice.

    Just came back from our Northern Spain trip. As always Maureen arranged our trips, and she always delivers. We have been using Ambassador tours for so many years now, so far I haven't been disappointed.

    They have set us up two trips and they were both great! Well planned worth every penny. If you've…read morenever used a person to plan a vacation, it is worth it as I get so much more out of my trips now! The trips we went on were multiple stops in Europe (London, Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin). We got in so much and stayed in amazing places. When my partner originally suggested that we go on a trip to Europe, I was concerned that I would have to do tons, and tons are planning to get a lot out of it. We had so many amazing adventures! And I barely had to do anything. Highly suggest if you ever wanted to do a multi jump trip, do it! Our second trip was to Iceland with my parents as well so it was great having to only worry about my parents inability to pack well and my mom and her new hip (yeah, it was interesting timing. She recovered well but it was still new hip) and not about the travel or such. We had a private guide as well. (sidenote, since I never tried going to Iceland without a guide not personal experience but, one of my moms doctors mentioned that they went to Iceland, but it was kind of scary because they were on this one lane Road and they said really scary.... When they suggest a guide, take a guide. It just takes a lot of the worry out.) When things went sideways they were very responsive and helped get things fixed quick. Would use again. For the hotels and such we did confirm the prices and they were in line so no weird pricing issues for us. We heard of scams so just saying we did compare so we wanted to share our vetting.

Thailand has been on our "bucket list" and being invited to a Thai wedding provided the incentive to make Thailand our next international destination. From the moment we contacted Irene, we knew were would be in good hands (was there any doubt?)! After providing responses to Irene's questionnaire regarding our interests and desires about Thailand (along with several emails, text messages, and phone conversations), she provided an excellent itinerary that included flights, private tours, private drivers to and from airports, superb accommodations, and expert guides. During our 5 nights in Bangkok, Irene curated a centrally located hotel in Bangkok, an informal food tour in Chinatown, and an exceptionally knowledgeable local guide to introduce us to the some of the most historically important temples in Bangkok and Ayutthaya. During our first 4 nights in Chiang Mai, Irene curated a modern-styled hotel minutes away from the legendary Night Market (a must experience). We had the pleasure of touring Chiang Mai and the hills of Doi Inthanon National Park with an experienced and friendly local guide. There is no substitute to having a local guide to provide insights and knowledge about Thai culture, food, and history. Additionally, Irene had arranged a private cooking class where we prepared 7 Northern Thailand dishes, all delicious!! Our last 3 nights were spent at the Onsen at Moncham, a Japanese-themed retreat in the mountains before returning home. Although Irene provided many options for our destinations/events and hotels, our itinerary was completely customizable and ultimately, our choice. Whether you want to experience Thailand on the beaten or unbeaten path, but with comfort, reliability, and service, let Irene at Travel Darlings handle your needs!

    We had the worst experience with this travel agent, Rosie Allara. We planned our trip to the Middle…read moreEast - Jordan and Dubai. Both my husband and I have very busy schedules, we did not have time to do the planning ourselves, we needed a travel agent to do it for us. We clearly expressed it to Rosie. First red flag was on our first phone call. Our expectation for this call was that the travel agent would spend this call gathering information from us and asking questions about what we wanted this trip to be. Instead, after the initial couple of general questions, she started looking at prices of the hotels on her computer while we were on the phone and telling us what they were. After the first 15 minutes of this, we tried to steer her into what we thought the main purpose of the call was, but she would jump from one topic to the next and to the other and then back to looking at hotel prices again. It felt like she could not organize her thought process. Finally, after 45 minutes of being on the phone and being exhausted from a lot of jumping around and not being able to communicate to the agent in the organized manner, we decided to end the call with the agreement that we would communicate by email. Rosie started looking for the airfair for us. Her prices were very high and the flights she kept offering were at a very inconvenient hours - in the middle of the night or very early in the morning or with very long layovers that would make the flight unnecessarily long. We explained to her that we prefer more comfortable times and flights since it was going to be our vacation. That did not change anything. After a lot of back and forth, we felt a lot of stress and pressure where she would say that there was nothing else she could find from her wholesaler. Feeling between the rock and a hard place, we ended up going on-line and looking for tickets ourselves. We found a very good price on Priceline, 35% less expensive that her price with comfortable hours and flights. We told her and she was OK with us purchasing the tickets on our own. Now, we thought that the rest of the trip - hotels and organizing the itinerary would be fun and easy. Boy, were we mistaken. Rosie gave us an approximate/1st draft itinerary with some hotel suggestions. Being first time to the Middle East, we had questions about the itinerary and we did not like some of the hotels that she proposed. It would take her several days to respond to each email, and in her response she would ignore half of our questions. We had to send follow up emails, she would not respond for several days, then respond with half of the answers again. That was about the itinerary. When we asked for restaurant recommendations, entertainment recommendations, walkable streets where we could walk around in the evening, she would not know the answers at all. Her answer was "The information that I have is old and outdated, you can get this information from your hotel." Really? isn't it your job, as a travel agent, to have an updated information? Isn't this why we needed a travel agent so we don't have to scramble for this information when we are in a foreign country, not speaking the language. It was back and forth, we were running out of time, it was getting close to our trip time, we were not making any progress. She would not care about our time, she did not care about the information that we asked for. After 1.5 months, we felt that we did not accomplish anything, we did not get passed that first draft of the itinerary and unsuitable hotel recommendations. She did not complete a single thing for our trip. The only item that we had after working with Rosie for 1.5 months was the plain tickets that we purchased on our own. After depleting all our patience and being completely stressed out, we had to find another travel agent. Fortunately, he did a great job for us and we ended up having a great trip. As far as Rosie is concerned, even though she did not get anything done for our trip, she refused to refund the $300 fee that we paid her to prepare our trip. We believe that Rosie is completely disorganized and lacks knowledge in the travel industry. She indeed has outdated information from the time when she travelled to the Middle East herself 10 years ago. Even bigger problem is that she is not willing to do a new research and provide her clients with the new, updated information. If she is not interested in updating herself and all she does is re-use the same information year after year after year, she should not be in a travel industry that is constantly changing. In our case, we asked for a new information (like anybody else would), she just ignored us, did not respond to our emails, dragged her feet, ignored our questions, and wasted our time hoping that we would just go with it. Awful experience!

After initially resolving a booking error, I received a confirmation email explicitly stating that hotel pickup was included. However, shortly before my scheduled trip, I was informed by both a representative named Vanessa and a subsequent agent, Susan, that hotel pickup is not actually provided for my hotel. When I inquired about the discrepancy in my confirmation, I was told only a manager named Jason at the Greyline Tour Operator could address it. Naturally, he was not at work. My experience with Viator's customer service was profoundly frustrating. I spoke with at least ten different agents, each providing conflicting information and empty promises of discounts. When I requested to speak with a supervisor, an agent named Mohammed placed me on hold indefinitely and insisted on handling the issue himself despite my clear request to speak with management multiple times. He eventually promised that a manager named Hazem would call me within ten minutes, but I never received that call. Upon calling back, I was forced to repeat the entire verification process with yet another agent, Cres, who also refused to escalate my request. Why do they need to verify my issue when they have all the information?! It appears that Viator's management is entirely inaccessible to customers seeking to rectify the company's own mistakes. I cannot recommend this organization to anyone. Viator consistently misrepresents the services provided, fails to honor their own confirmations, and operates with a level of incompetence and disregard for customer service that is unacceptable. I strongly advise others to avoid this company and save their money by booking tours directly with reputable operators.

It was a lengthy process to get visas done, book plane & train tickets, and have private tour guides in 2-3 months time. But they made it happen! All accommodations were clean and modern except for Beijing. But when we mentioned it to Elaine about the condition of the room, she took care of the situation and we were moved to a better room the next day. Make note that many hotel upper floors are better maintained compared to the lower floors in China. Each city had an AYCE breakfast buffet that was beautifully presented and prepared. We were definitely well nourished and fed for trekking and sightseeing! In Beijing, we saw the Forbidden City, climbed the Great Wall, walked around the Hutong area and had great food. In X'ian, we saw the Terracotta Warriors and the excavation site and museum. Managed to find a good spot near our hotel that had crispy Roujaimo (Chinese hamburger). And we found thick winter coats for only $20 USD! What a steal! And with the snow unexpectedly falling while we were there, it was necessary! In Shanghai, we explored the city, saw Yu Garden area, saw the LV flagship store and a huge Starbucks, one of seven in the world, where you see the production of coffee beans being roasted. We visited a few shopping malls to purchase perfume and make-up as well. In this city, there's an unusual combination of beautiful modern skyscrapers along side Chinese and European architecture. In Chongqing, we entered ancient caves with rock carved buddhas, saw stone bridges made from nature, experienced city life where they built the city in levels going upward rather than miles across. Honestly, I'd get lost since GPS couldn't tell you what level you are on! So glad we had a tour guide and driver who knew the city well! It saved us time and energy since we did not have to navigate ourselves. And with a language barrier, it would have made it even more difficult. All our gratitude goes to Star Vacation for creating and planning the itinerary for us. It was a fast-paced trip only staying in each city for just 2-3 days each. Our trip was exactly 2 weeks and it ended in Hong Kong, where we explored it ourselves. It was an expensive trip, but it was experience of a lifetime and truly memorable. We wouldn't hesitate asking Elaine and Melody to plan another trip in the near future!
