I am extremely disappointed with how this situation was handled…read more When my flight was originally scheduled for 2:00 p.m., I contacted your team months in advance to ask if it could be moved to an earlier flight because I had to work that day. I was told the only other option was a 5:00 a.m. departure. As a broke college student, that wasn't realistic because there would be no shuttle service available, meaning I would have had to pay for transportation to the airport out of pocket. Because of that, I kept my afternoon flight. I later found out that several of my peers, who were booked through the same company and traveling to the exact same destination, were placed on earlier flights throughout the day. When I checked, those flights still had available seats. I even called the day of travel and was told I could switch to an earlier flight, but only if I paid the change fee myself. What is most frustrating is that I asked about this months ago. Had I been given accurate information at that time, this issue could have been resolved. Instead, I was told there were no other options, which was simply not true. I planned around the information I was given, only to find out later that earlier flights were available all along. I feel like I was misled, and I am very disappointed with the lack of transparency and customer service throughout this process. This situation could have been avoided with honest communication, and I hope it is addressed so other travelers do not have the same experience.

I had learned about the Kilimanjaro Porters Assistance Project (kiliporters.org), and it was important to work with a travel agent that participated in this program, and AWR does. They were so phenomenal in the organizing and execution of that trip! We had 4 travelers with 3 different itineraries, and AWR put together trips for all of us that were outstanding! This trip far exceeded our expectations and was executed flawlessly! This year, a friend came back from trekking with gorillas in Rwanda and recommended it to us. We contacted his travel agent, and that agent put together an itinerary that we would never have afforded, and it only let us trek with gorillas. Because we were so impressed with AWR previously, I checked their website to see what they had to offer. We were able to trek with both gorillas and chimps in Uganda as well as tour various places in South Africa and Victoria Falls in Zambia, all for FAR cheaper than the proposed trip to Rwanda. We just got back from our Uganda/South Africa/Zambia adventure, and it was sensational! The accommodations were amazing! The adventures were out of this world! AWR was so great in helping us rearrange things at the last minute due to weather-related issues. I can't recommend AWR higher!

We were given a big packet of information with detailed description of each day of our trip (miles, sites elevation gain, etc.) which was amazing to have to reference each day. In addition to all of this, they had. a local representative show up at our hotel the first night and gave us two detailed maps with highlighted trails for each day. All of our transfers were seamless, bag transfers, everything! Thank AWR for everything! We will definitely be using your services again!!

KimKim arranged an 8 day trip to Florence and Rome in September for me and my husband. We knew we…read morewere interested in science/engineering and food, and asked for a "mid-range, upscale" plan. KimKim quickly connected us with a local "travel designer" in Italy at a company called My Custom Journey. We were assigned to Valeria (and assisted by Lucrezia) who worked with us over the next few days to arrange a plan that gave us exactly what we wanted. The plan included an activity or two each day, with a free day in each city for us to manage on our own. The plan came in about 30% over the range I had selected, but it included everything we wanted, with excellent hotels (four star, centrally located, comfortable size and amenities) + private transfers and drivers for all the on ground travel in Italy. That means we were met at the airport by a guide, driven to our hotel, driven from our hotel to the train station and personally guided to the train, with the same level of service when it was time to head home. This made our trip completely stress free and luxurious feeling - well worth the extra cost. I'm sure they would have adjusted to fit into our range if we balked at the upgrades. For one of our free days, we found an underground labyrinth tour that was a bit out of town, and Valeria was able to secure a car to take us to and from. She also contacted the labyrinth company directly when it didn't look like there would be an English tour on the day we were free. They were able to get us a private tour last minute! They were also very responsive about any questions we had about shopping areas, art galleries, appropriate attire, and scheduling. On the ground in Italy we were supported by Daniela who we were able to contact easily on WhatsApp. She was quick to respond and great at addressing any issues that came up (e.g., there was a flood in Florence that affected a tour we had planned and she was able to adjust our day). The best tour Valeria and team arranged for us in Rome was an all day tour down Appian Way to see catacombs, mausoleums, and the ancient aqueduct. Our tour guide for that day was Maria Teresa and she was so knowledgeable! In Florence, we had the same guide for all our activities - Valentina - who was an art historian but was also able to speak knowledgably about the science museums we visited. She also arranged for us to skip the line at All'Antico Vinaio ;-) The only thing we didn't love about KimKim is the fact that they use their own app to deliver the travel plans. It does a great job of collecting all the activities plus the tickets, addresses, and details we needed. So, on its own it's fine. The challenge is that we use TripIt for all our travel tracking and planning and there's no way to import the KimKim content in TripIt. Since TripIt is where we keep our flight info and restaurant reservations, it would be wonderful if we could have incorporated the KimKim stuff into the app we already use for all our other travel stuff.

If you are using this platform then, at least give a review once in a while and if you find a business has changed services, stopped services, or has just gone lame, then do a review and report it. This is a poor reflection not only on Gold Key Travel, but Yelp and its users as well. Come on people. All previous reviews looked outstanding, so I thought Gold Key Travel is going to be a great gig. Wrong! I wasted way too much time trying to contact GKT only to find out that they are no longer open to the public for regular services. They now apparently only do certain special annual package deals for seniors. So why is GKT showing up as number one on a Yelp search for the Greeley/Ft Collins area when they are no longer open for regular travel services? There should be a way for Yelp to remove businesses or change their status listing so of users don't waste their time trying to contact businesses that no longer offer the regular services as once previously performed or advertised.
