GBBEWARE DON'T BOOK Extra Services Iceland (Aug. 2021) Used A&K early check-in & 2 extra nights; charged $660 per night (taxes/breakfast) Other guests booked w/hotel (same room) $330. While on trip emailed numerous times & received generic non-answer from Margaret Wnek, Guest Relations. A couple on trip A&K quoted helicopter ride, $3,000. We paid $850 w/hotel for same ride. Asked Ms. Wnek for customer survey of trip like they used to do; told they don't do this.

GBBooked a flight on Emirates Airline… Booked a flight on Emirates Airline through them - espensive - had to cancel due to Covid - Promised refund in 6-8 weeks - now been over 10 weeks - agent says it is an "accounting issue" - manager no help. I'm sure Emirates refunded A&K - but A&K refuses to do as they promised and refund my money back to me. Very poor form

GBStill waiting After months, I am still waiting for any response from A & K. In the meantime, on various travel websites, I’ve read reviews left by other A & K travelers who had the same similar, disappointing experiences as we did on our A & K safari. I haven’t even gotten any responses from this website! If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve already traveled with A & K and been unhappy. Too bad we trusted this company and shame on them for not caring about their customers.

GBOur first trip with Abercrombie & Kent Our first trip with Abercrombie & Kent. We were hoping for a luxury experience. We did stay at 5 star hotels and group size was small. We felt that was where the luxury ended. They were cheap on wine at the welcome and farewell dinner. For a 3 hour dinner only one glass per person. You paid for the second glass. I did not feel our guide in Jordan did anything other than check a box. The Israel guide was great. We have done Tauck and was for more impressed. They also do not ask a customer’s opinion after a trip. They apparently do not care. It was a great trip but not the service leaves we expected for the price.

GBOur trip to Spain and Portugal did not… Our trip to Spain and Portugal did not meet expectations. This was our first A&K trip. It did not compare favorably to our Tauck trips, Backroads, or even trips we planned ourselves and guides we hired. There were numerous disappointments that I won't even mention here. My husband and I both wrote to A&K and received no response. We didnt want anything from them...in fact we wouldn't take another trip with them if it was free. We were only trying to give some constructive feedback. I would be happy to go into more detail if anyone is interested.
