We would like to highlight that in spite of paying the advance amount 90 days prior to the departure date, we had to undergo a lot of pain in attending the visa formalities, which was arranged at the last moment (Ie) one in bangalore and another in ernakulam. Apart from this, tickets were delivered just 1 day in advance and tour...

5% money back for egypt tour.

Address: 560068

SOTC i s cheating the customers and even customer service at the highest level do not comply with promises. Money back promised is just gimmick and not pay even after months of complaints. The credit card swiping is done on different entity thus depriving customer of promised money back.
