Our 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.

Wings over Mediterranean Sept 2022 Wings over Mediterranean Sept 2022. Other than the intra-city flights which were first class private jet, the rest was......average. Tour buses with windows too small to see any passing points of interest. A 250 sq ft "luxury" hotel room---thought I was in a Motel 8. Museum tours led by local experts who over-talked so long that they cut into anything that was planned for the remainder of that day. Restaurants....3 in particular very small, crowded, and not even remotely above average. Written itinerary says "and then return to your host city and enjoy the rest of the afternoon at your leisure." No way...we usually got back to the hotel around 5:30 after already passing up at least one planned exhibit. We had no special tour group privileges...we were just part of the pack and were overrun by tourists at every stop. $40,000 per person....a big huge "ouch"

This is my first trip with Abercrombie & Kent This is my first trip with Abercrombie & Kent. I’ve been on several trips with National Geographic and loved those. I wanted to try a different tour operator and see how they compare to National Geographic. The trip is 2 months off and already I’m having my doubts. Multiple emails from different people asking for the exact same information, namely flight arrangements. I keep telling each person when I sent the requested information and to whom. Nothing much about the trip itinerary yet or who will be leading the tour. By now with National Geographic I would have had that information and would have been provided with a list of suggested reading materials to learn more about the tour destinations. So far, I’m less than impressed. This is supposed to be a top tier tour operator…they certainly charge top tier prices. Time will tell

If It Was A Free Trip, I Would Not Use A&K I will NEVER, EVER, EVER use A&K again and when asked I tell people to use another tour company. They give you bad and incorrect travel information. They do not return inquires and tell you they are too busy. I am waiting for two refunds. We went to South Africa and Kenya with them. I cannot say enough bad things about them. Interesting that they do not ask their customers to review them at the end of a trip

Similar experience to the other posters… Got there eventually on a credit note due to COVID disruption. Next time less stress and hassle please!
