Hi,
I need a travel agent too! I am planning to treat my parents to Macau and Hong KOng in July for their anniversary. Currently I am in SIngapore, so I cant personally visit the travel agents in KL. Would appreaciate if they are able to aliase with me via emails. Just two adults, departing in July 2008. Preferably Friday to Monday. About 4 days 3 nights, with sight seeing and all inclusive (Meals, accommodation & air flights). Thanks oh yeah, pls pm me or email me mlmc85@gmail.com as I am hardly in LYN. |

it actually depends on which place you would want to visit. i suggest you go to those well known travel agents as i believe you don't want to get scammed by those not-well-known travel agent which was published in the paper last year. for south east asia, i recommend taikar holidays. i have 6 vacations in various SEA countries for the past 3 years and i do not have any problems with them. i have also made a trip with lung chia pin travel and tour and i can say they are every professional as they are one of the most oldest travel agent around along with taikar. their office may seems old but service is superb.
i also suggest for those who want to make any booking to personally visit the travel agency itself so you know who you deal with and understand more on the company. never ever, i repeat never ever goes to the travel agencies in UE3 as they are really not reliable. you can see many of the agencies has closed shop reliance is good for euporean countries but it's also one of the most expensive travel agent as the agency itself belongs to an established well known corporation. |

For expensive tour packages to Europe, I'd recommend Reliance for its reputation and reliability. You don't want to risk tens of thousands just to save a little with unknown tour agencies

I went with Mayflower to Europe. I don't see them advertising often, only during Matta Fair.
My trip with Mayflower, I have written it down here: http://deliciousbeautiful.blogspot.com Matta fair is coming soon, maybe you might get some good deals from travel company. Anyone else tried Mayflower before? Did you have good experience with them? Depends on which part of Europe, you would like to go, another company offering to Sweden, Norway and other countries is Apple Holidays. I have tried Reliance before, some how I feel that they are a bit expensive. |

Especially news after news about tour companies running off money collected for Europe tours. Apple tour...I heard many good reviews from friends about this company....might try them next time. |

Hi.
Planning to join a tour to Japan this March to see sakura. I found out that most travel agents use Mandarin as the language for the tour. I am not good in Mandarin..so i prefer to join a Japan tour(in English language).. Apple Holiday uses Mandarin only and no translation provided. As for Reliance, they have bilingual (English and Mandarin)..yea..i guess thats why its more expensive? I thought Apple Holidays ( and some other travel agents)provide tour in English since they advertise in English....hmmm...too bad.. guess have no other choice (since most travel agents only provide tour in mandarin )but to go Reliance. Does anyone know other travel agent that provide tour to Japan in English language? |

Depend. Just check the advert & also call them for info.
Normally if they mention: 1) Tour package - meaning inclusive of everything but you need to chk the itineraries as entrance fee might not be included, & also dinner 2) Ground arrangement - This one exclude air fare. 3) From RMXXX.XX only....meaning just like Air Asia & MAS promotion...u can only get this rate only on selected date. Once the date fulfilled the advertisement is as good as "nothing" The 3rd one is the one I really hate whenever I visit Matta fair!! BTW I hv stopped going to Matta fair....eg..Advertised from RM499 to Bali....when I further checked...They will tell me Oh that one finished already...Currently we are selling at RM799 & after handling & admin, the price will be RM1000 each....chee sing!!

Don't bother joining Reliance for China tours.
I had gone with a group for one of the tours recently. The tour guides don't bother to wait for those at the back, and for everyone to regroup for briefing. Thus those at the back are at a lost. (e.g at every stop they would give us sometime to use the restrooms, but if there's a long queue, ..oh well, you'll need to gather information from the rest of the group). The tour guides don't bother waiting. Even at the airports during our plane transit, they just zoom off, expecting everyone to follow. And they practically rushed you off from one stop to another, unless its those factories which they bring you to in which they get commission if you buy something, then you can take your own sweet time. Other than that, they just start chasing you and rushing you off from one stop to another. Case in point, our bus stopped at the highway to everyone to use the restroom. At the highway, there's a shop selling some food, and everyone was lingering around for awhile for, food tasting and paying for them, and the tour guide just start rushing everyone off. Because our next stop is to another factory in which they can get their wallets fattened. And this is no ordinary tour. The whole trip booked by a company as a reward for their suppliers/dealers. In which, we can change the iternary or duration as we please. |

Dear all,
What agencies are good for booking flight tickets for us? Is STA Travel good? Can any travel agencies do this (like Reliance, etc), even though what I want are only flight tickets and not their tour packages? Do they charge us or the airline for the commission? I know, most of you will probably say, "book yourself la". But when the tickets involve multiple time zones and destinations and some other factors, things get complicated. Plus, there may be promotions from foreign airlines we don't know about and these travel agencies would know about them. Thanks a lot |

Hi, every travel pros here. I'm going to travel to Hong Kong next month with my family. I'm currently searching any tourism agency to have tourism guide in Hong Kong. ( well it is those who holding flag and lead tourists to go places by places ). But since I'm the first time searching those agency, I have no idea where to start or where to find as all my friends are self traveling without any agency guided. So anyone can recommend me? Many thanks for your advice or help.

Hi, I'm interested to sign up Red tomato card membership because they offer package RM599 membership entitle for 2 ground tours (4 star hotel, meal, tour guide and transportation, exclude air ticket, tippings and visa) for 2 pax, can transfer to others. The ground tour only can choose from 4 places - 5D4NBeijing, 5D4NShanghai, 4D3NChengdu and 4D3NGui Lin, select any 2 places, must complete this 2 tour package within one yr. Besides, they will deliver red tomato Chinese newspaper to your house every week for 1 yr. This membership also comes with vouchers for hotel, yoga, fitness centre, courses, health check, etc. For more details, visit red tomato website
So, i would like to get feedback from ppl who already signed as member and went for the trip because I'm afraid this is a scam. My friend already signed up during the Matta fair and she said many ppl join. But, I can't find any online review on this membership. As I know, red tomato newspaper just launch in June 2009 and membership card just launch during Matta Fair. So, might not many ppl go for the trip. Anyone can share?

Sorry I had to open a new thread for this, I need to get tickets to Vancouver urgently, by tomorrow as parents need to fly out before 19th of March.
I need a recommendation for any good travel agent within PJ (section 14/SS2 or new town area) or Sunway area, or anywhere within that radius. Also don't mind going to KL so can recommend there too. They must have Korean Air on their books. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!! |

Has anyone here been on Reliance's Europe Tours? Saw their advert in the papers the other day and the prices look reasonable.
But I googled them and it seems like there are some people who went with them to Europe and were not satisfied with their services. Any feedback on Reliance? |

Usually big travel agencies are more reliable and price maybe be higher a bit. Still depending on where you planning to go.
Few big and reliable travel agencies Apple Holidays Bestour Holiday Tour Reliance Mayflower Wisma Central and along Jalan Imbi, there's a lot of travel agencies you can do research and compare as well. |

If you do not have the time, the best way to check out the travel agencies is at the Matta Fair since most of the players are there and you can compare their prices and itineraries. It is generally safer to go with the more established players. The fiasco with Excellence Holidays 2 years back should not happen again, hopefully. Among the big players, GTT tends to be the most expensive but I heard good feedback. I took a package trip to Turkey under Parlo Tours last year and it was very good but the whole trip in Turkey was handled by a local Turkish tour operator so don't know how the other tours would be like. I went to Greece under a two-to-go package under Sedunia Travel (in Wisma Genesis) and it was well-organised (again they were using a local Greek tour operator). For those package tours lead by a local (I mean Malaysian), I think a lot depends on the actual package and the tour leader or manager since his/her experience and knowledge of the places counts. Otherwise I believe they are more or less the same for the estabished players and the deciding factor will be the itinerary and the cost of the tour that best suits you.

Can anyone recommend a tour agency which mainly caters to an english speaking crowd. I have been on several tours which start off in English for the 1st 12 hours and then carried out in another language. I miss out on a lot of the interactions within the group and of course getting my money's worth. I have put in complaints about this in the past but its an ongoing problem.
I'm actually looking to go to China at the end of the year. Cheers. |

I have gone on a few package tours arranged by local oprators here and all were using English mainly. Myabe you should clarify with them in the very beginning, before booking the tour. If you want tours that caters to 100% English speaking group, then you can try those UK based operators such as Cosmos, Trafalgar or Insight. I just tried one by Cosmos to Germany and it was well managed. Only problem, you need to make your own flight arrangement to and from the starting point of the tour. I don't think they have tours to China, though.

From what I see for traveling to US, travel agent seems the best way for connecting flights to US. I need some recommendation for travel agent preferably around Old Klang Road or any other location if good. Thanks. |

the famous famous one also is apple holiday,reliance etc etc. mayflower also got feedback from other forumer that its quite good. but careful on finding trustable and reliable travel agents,don go for the agencies that simply is cheap,u will regret later. but sometime even famous agencies also not so good it all depends on luck whether yr guide is good anot as some guide just wanna fast fast settle and go to the next destination.

Check out Pay Less for Holiday (paylessforholiday.weebly.com)
Cheap packages compares to any travel agents. Run by a group of freelancers. One of them is a previous Director of a established travel agent. Totally recommended. Cheap and Good services. A lot of their loyal and repeat customers are from CIMB, RHB and Maybank employees, to arrange for their personal family trip and staff trip. |

Weird to notice that not many travel agencies are active online. I'd think that this is an easy way to promote your trips/packages and also to connect with possible customers (besides their website, via fb or twitter and such). But unfortunately it seems that only a handful are active online, and those usually are catering to the rich type of travelers.
Hope this changes soon. Does anyone know of a few good inbound travel agencies? Preferably ones that offer trips throughout the whole of Malaysia (and not only a local agency offering trips within their own state only).. Tq |

This may be late to help you but in my experience for countries like the US, it's quite easy to find good tours from the hotel you are staying in. So planning your own wont be a problem. Of course there is their immigration who may grill you if you do not show specific itinerary. |

I bought thru agent the last time to Vancouver because he could arrange for free stopover at Shanghai for 2 nights instead of just transit. It was cheaper than booking direct with other airlines too, plus more convenient of course. That's why booked thru agents.
Other than that, I don't use travel agents. |

Yes I have traveled to China two times courtesy of Eddie's Kosher Travel services who are an Israel based Travel agency. I had gone on a guided tour and thoroughly enjoyed the facilities, services and a varied experience of the land at a reasonable cost. Pay them a visit and check out their services. They remain competitively priced and have some great packages for china tour.

Do you guys think its really good to follow tours? Plan to do that as it's hard to get transportation to here and there, what are your thoughts on DIY and tour agent? At least you ll have proper explanation right on attractions?

just a gentle reminder beware and careful of travel agency as my parent just travelled with harmony tour and the agents bring you for shopping which most of the shops are selling fake items and even the tour guide are also selling while on the tour .. anyway to make a complaint other than through the travel agent to have more ppl aware of this?

I am planning to go to Hong Kong with my mom next year but i have problem finding a tour package to HongKong. As i am from Seremban, i have checked a few agencies but many of them provide mixture to HK, Macau and Shenzhen but the days spend in HK is just 1 day out of 5-6 days travel. I will prefer more days in HK. i dont mind going to KL tour agencies but i can only contact them through email as i'm busy with work. Does anyone have any recommendation on this? Thanks. |

Would appreciate if any1 could give some feedback on this travel agent. I want to book a room in a resort in Pulau Tioman. Salang Pusaka resort. But failed to find a direct website of the resort. Cant find any contact either. So I came across this website pulautioman.com.my and tried booking from them. But this is my 1st time booking from an agent. I usually book directly the hotel i wanted to stay.
The travel Agency details are De Penarik Beach Travel and Tour Sdn Bhd Company No : 794620-W KKKP License : 5543 Date Incorporated : 6 th November 2007 Board of Directors : Wan Jaafree Bin Wan Abd Hamid Wan Abd Hamid Bin Wan Kadir can give feedback if this agency can be trusted or not? thank u |

Hi. I'm planning a trip to Turkey during the May/ Jun school holidays. I am looking for a fairly good tour agency who does English-speaking tours to Turkey. Any recommendations please? I have hardly used tour agencies for my previous travels as I have always preferred free-and-easy type of vacations. But due to time constraints, I have to consider one this time around.
Thanks in advance. |

Have used various travel agency for my tours to various countries and sometime you get a good one and sometime dont. Am just back from Turkey by Malaysia Harmony. Am happy with them and you may want to try their Europe tour. You also can try Parlo Tours (a friend use them and said service is great), GTT (use them before in my china trip...great too) and Pear Holiday (my china trip, great service too).

What's the latest recommended agency for a short ground tour of Beijing for English speakers? We will already be somewhere else in China and maybe better to book one from KL before going.

Hi guys, I need recommendations on which tour agent to go with to hike Mount Kinabalu. Planning to hike this coming June 2015.
Can anyone here recommends me a legit and reliable tour agent that they use? Thanks in advance! This post has been edited by apsidewatch: Feb 19 2015, 04:51 PM |

Hi everyone. Good day to you. I would like to enquire on flight tickets to London. Travel period would be either March or April 2016. Looking into flying with either Emirates, Etihad, Thai, KLM or if no choice, MAS or any reasonably priced airlines. Kindly revert to me/pm on the best deals. Thank you and have a nice day.
P.S: need tickets only |

Hi, hoping that some people here can share their experience with Apple Holiday and their Japan tours. At first opting for Japanican/JTB but now considering Apple Holiday.
My main concern is language. I'm a "banana" and am worried that Apple Holiday's tour guide will end up not being able to speak in English. On Apple Holiday's brochure, they mention the tour being bilingual (English and Chinese). However in another brochure, they state that the tour will be mainly conducted in Mandarin. Hence, now I have my doubts. I had a bad experience during my trip to Singapore many years ago when the tour company promised to be bilingual but my family ended up getting a tour guide who could barely speak English.

I have absolutely no problems with that. Problem is the friend that i'm suppose to go with wants to follow an agent because her parents do not approve on her backpacking and going without and agent. At first, we wanted to go with Japanican, which at least gives us the option of free and easy on the last few days. Now, my friend changed her mind and is opting for Apple Holiday.Tried goggling around for reviews on Apple Holiday but none of them mentioned language, which is the main concern of mine.

I've only attended one tour in recent memory. Not Apple Holidays, but in Australia blue mountains tour. The tour guide was bilingual -- mandarin and english. He memang can speak english well, BUT ... he doesn't do bilingual explanations during the bus ride, etc. i.e. he only speaks mandarin to everyone when telling them about the sights, how long you should spend in an area, etc etc ... |

Had a similar experience with another tour company when i went to Singapore with my family many years ago (now looking back.. idk why my family chose to go to singapore with a tour.. lol). The tour guide could barely speak English though. He can speak English for a bit but not enough to give explanations about the places we visited. Nasib baik we weren't the only ones complaining cuz we had a middle eastern family who also was very unhappy with the tour guide. If I'm gonna pay Apple Holiday for a tour guide, I might as well make sure that i get the benefit from it. Takutx2 promise to be bilingual but later never keep their promise. Hope someone can share their experience with Apple Holiday, even if it's not with their Japan tours... This post has been edited by mikasaackerman: Dec 30 2015, 09:33 AM |

you might want to make the agency put it black and white stated that the tour guide assigned would be able to communicate in your preferred language, anything happened at least can go to tribunal for the refund

Hi,
Recently this company Tourist Guide has been advertising a lot using social media ie. Facebook. Anyone know whether they r legit? the prices they offer r actually quite cheap i may add thus the temptation but fearing they may just run away with the money after booking especially if the trip is probably few months down the road or even a year ahead. Their website : http://www.touristguide.com.my/ Any thoughts? Thanks. |

Always go for a reputable one.Recently this company Tourist Guide has been advertising a lot using social media ie. Facebook.

Avoid Airlink as used to be no ethical, will always inform you to change package due to "insufficient peoples", whereby is BS as they would combine and select the highest margin package amongst all they had. |

Need advice urgently for Balkans tour under SA tour- Sri America Travel Sdn Bhd in Bukit Bintang.
I intend to book next year Apr 2018 which they have 4 schedule of that month,March 3 departure date n May 4 departure which I am afraid they can't form the minimum of 15 persons of my selected date. I understand most of the tour agents will rearrange the departure date with most bookings recruited. Now, SA tour told me the date I selected already have 6 persons which they think will be able to make it. Any suggestion or past experience with this company going to Balkans? |
