I DO NOT recommend using Tiki Trips and I wish I had read some reviews before doing business with them. At first, she was extremely nice and helpful. She told us that she would do this, and that, and this, and that for us. Nevertheless, once she got her money ($500 Deposit), the nice and helpful aspect went right out the window. In addition, her responsiveness and ability to serve clients was unprofessional at best. Then, when she did finally respond (2 1/2 weeks later), she provided elaborate excuses noting that WE should have called her instead of contacting her by email - she basically put the blame on us for not contacting her in a way that she prefers. Furthermore, it seems that this line of business requires responsiveness regardless of the method (email vs. phone).
Needless to say, we dropped Tiki Trips. When I did call to end our business (or lack of) relationship with Tiki Trips, I was greeted with more excuses and was told that we could not get any of our $500 deposit back because the $500 was absorbed by all the "services" she provided. Yet, the services we received were limited to promises and future obligations.
Bottom line: Unless unresponsiveness and unprofessionalism appeals to you, I would advise you to look elsewhere for your travel needs. There are many reputable travel agencies' out there which can provide outstanding service making your travel planning experience simple and stress-free. read more
