SOTC Complaints & Reviews

I visited dubai via sotc pimple saudagar branch. I choose sotc just considering that it's such a big organization and it will be a great and pleasant experience.
But to my surprise it's totally reverse.
Even a standalone tour operators would be better than sotc people.

There are couple of reasons behind this.
1) i paid initial amount and they book flight tickets then sotc literally forget me. Before 8...

We had family trip to ladakh with sotc. No travel guide manager was provided to us. The driver was careless and kept talking over phone while driving. Also the driver did not know our itinerary at all, every time we had to guide him about the same. The food was very average and all day the same boring food was provided. The cost of camel safari was not provided by sotc although it was supposed to be sponsored by them, and no bonfire was arranged...

Hi,

Guys don't plan your vacation trip through sotc and specially banglore, they know only one thing that how to ruin someone's trip. I was planing to travel to dubai in march 2019 and they took 2 months to book each and everything i. E. Flight and hotel, and my trip was held in may 2019 instead in march and the service was disaster. Earlier they book flight as per their own without customer permission and when airline have...

Extremely poor, unprofessional uncourteous and i'll mannered dealing of the staffs including branch and zonal heads at salt lake, kolkata. Very keen to get the entire payments but once, the full payment is made, they are not bothered to listen to the problems /issues of the people undertaking the package tours. Same comments are applicable to the tour manager. All most all the people who accompanied us from india have the same views. Everywhere,...

I am writing my experience so it can help others especially folks who plan from India with an agent who they meet online/ad’s/local branch.
I would like to say that dealing with SOTC initially was very pleasing i.e. going back and forth with prices, packages and all that... after the initially payment (‘so called token amount’)..We realized that their whole intent and agenda was to just force the customers to go on the trip....

The worst company to travel with is sotc. I booked trip for my parents and the management, communication and feedback by the sotc team was worst. No service. Delay in replies. We have to call again n again to take feedbacks. Pathetic service and worst management. Don't travel with this company. It's better to consider other ours like kesari, heena, thomas cook...

Sotc booked wrong flights for me and my husband due to which we were at an international airport for 3 days without our baggage. Moreover they overcharged from us. We had a very horrible experience for spending 3 night s at the airport due to the negligence of sotc.

We tried to contact them
Many times no one picked up the phone last day they attended us. Why they took money from us if we had to spend our own...

We had a worst experience in picking up Great Britain package for 7 nights 8 days in the month May 14 2019.

This was our 3rd trip planned with SOTC. Every time we book for an international group tour either something would go wrong in the beginning or after landing in the tour, but we get convinced by the hotels they provide in the group tour but this time even that did not happen.

They are very smart in giving...

We were given documents to produce at VFS visa application centre and when we produced them there we were told that my wife's documents are there but mine was not there. I had to telephone SOTC Coimbatore and got the documents by e-mail and got them printed by paying Rs 280 from my pocket.
I reported this matter to their customer care asking them to refund the amount but there has been no response.
Our tour commences on 30 Jul...
