[Resolved]  SOTC India — Horrible services

I am a reputed doctor in north india. My family had been to europe with SOTC All the persons in the tour -starting 18th June were horrified at the services. Day wasting at airports, wrong and changed venues and airports was very common not to mention bad breakfasts.
I wish all persons read this review .
To add to the woes they stayed on the eve of departures around 100 kms from zurich . We had to wake up at 2am to catch 7 am flight
an Indian guide who had to read from books to guide us is the least.
Thanks and no thanks SOTC

Hi Gavin
i[censored] are going to USA...it is way easier to make your own plans. US is pretty gud wth its hotels/motels/tour packages.

I did plan Europe with SOTC this year but I am glad it didn't materialise. Now after seeing these comments I have decided not to approach them. I had been to their office in Dubai once & was not impressed at all. There was general lack of professionalism. The behaviour of the staff was like you are need not us.
Thanks to all the contributors of this blog.
Hey Guys..Thanks for the review about SOTC, I was planning a trip with them but now i will be looking for someone else. Can you suggest any good international tour operator. How about thomas cook?

Thanks,

Hi All,
Thanks a lot for sharing your experiences on this blog, i am planning a trip to dubai with SOTC but after reading your experiences i am sure that i'll ignore SOTC for my trip planning.
Thanks to all!
I had a totally different experience than you all had. I had been with SOTC to their Fareast tour. The tour Managers were excellent guides. Since it was a group tour it was hectic, but this was informed to us before departure.
I agreed with you Annie, I was surprised to see this complain… my family has travelled with S.O.T.C six times and I haven’t come across any such incident… we all enjoyed the tour. The most memorable tour was the USA and EUROPE. Most of the places S.O.T.C customers have been given preference. I have seen other tour companies customers are waiting for their turn after S.O.T.C customers. i think some one is creating this complaint to spoil a reputed company
Dear All,

Thank you for warning me against SOTC, as I was planing to take europe through SOTC but now I will not take please suggest me the alternative if possible if anything is available from Dubai.
thanx a ton for the information.can anyone give some information regarding u.s. vacation, the charges per person, good tour operator?
thanks
Thanks every one for the thread...i was inches away from finalizing a trip...saved in time...but then what is a gud alternative...cox & kings or Raj?
sotc take a hike, i was thinking of going for 19 day tour to usa;now NO WAY.

City Safari — Awful service

Readers from Bangalore - Please avoid taking City safari taxi services.
They have deteriorated thier service quality to abysmall levels. I have had several bad experiences but I put them off thinking they are driver specific. The bad service and rude behaviour by the driver of the cab is in fact the culture that they follow.

Just dial unfortunately is not aware of the idiotic service city safari provideds and therefore perhaps would recommend you to contact them first. To avoid being upset at the rash driving/ill-manners of the uneducated scum o[censored]sually drivers these cabs, avaoid city safari by all means.

europa/globus — refund money

Dear Friends see the below my blog
please to police they gave repayment money from europay MD's

THanks for the comments.
i will surely avoid them in future
I booked my Europe trip with SOTC.
I got my tickets, visas and everything and just 10 days before the trip SOTC cancelled it's trip and they won't even refund me.
So my $1500 went down the drain. If you are reading this, never ever book your trip with SOTC unless you like to waste your money.
