When traveling to another country it is always best to make sure you cash out or spend all your…read moreforeign currency before coming back to the US; but if you don't you can always sale your foreign currency to Altour American Express located in Lenox Plaza. You will certainly pay to sale your currency back, but at least you re-coop some of your money. On a recent trip to Mexico we bought pesos at the rate of $12.95 pesos to the USD and ended up bringing back a few pesos. After going to my bank Wells Fargo I referred to Altour; which was luckily located next door to my office so it is very nice to just have to walk over this morning and sale the pesos. After an $8 service charge and their exchange rate of $1 USD to $14.86 pesos I only took a loss of $23.21 USD. Not bad considering it will probably be a while before I return to Mexico, so I got a little bit of my money back. Also, I should mention if you are selling your currency back to Altour AMEX is that they do not buy coins; only bills. I've now got $36 pesos in coins as souvenirs to remind me of my trip to Mexico.

I found out about this place when I was going to Paris the next day from Bank of America. Bofa…read moredidnt have any foreign currency in hand so they referred me to the Amex place. It's inside the Lenox Place bldg. Just park upfront and its right there in front. I called about their rates before going there but the next day the Euro had gone up...oh well. I didn't have much of a choice. A guy was in line before me and walked out because he said the Euro was lower when he called the day before....ummm dude...it's going to be the same everywhere. Anyhoo, the lady that helped me was nice and gently explained the fees since I didn't know shit about changing money. Next time I will make sure to change my money at Bofa or any bank 4 days before my trip and if not, American Express on Peachtree Rd will be my go to place for foreign currency exchange! :D

I am writing this review to warn future customers against using Vacation Express. Due to…read morecircumstances beyond our control, our journey began with significant travel disruptions. Our original flights from Dallas to Houston were delayed multiple times, ultimately resulting in a cancellation for the evening because the airline was unable to secure the required flight attendants. Immediately after the cancellation, I contacted Vacation Express to notify their team and request assistance. I specifically asked that our airport transportation be rescheduled and inquired about compensation for the missed night, as we had already paid for accommodations we could not use. I was assured that these matters would be handled and that a review for a partial refund would be initiated. However, during this process, our entire reservation appears to have been mistakenly canceled/mishandled in their system. When we checked our Hilton reservation via the app, it was no longer visible. Upon contacting Vacation Express again, I was reassured that our booking was still active and that everything was in order. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Upon arrival in Cancun, we discovered that our transportation provider (Nexus) had no record of our transfer. Despite being told by Vacation Express that the arrangements had been communicated, Nexus representatives confirmed they had received no such update. We were left waiting for approximately one hour before transportation was reluctantly arranged due to the situation. Upon arrival at the Hilton Mar Caribe, we encountered an even more serious issue: the hotel thought we were a no show, and had no room for us. We were told that we did have a reservation, but this was clearly not the case, and they were trying to cover themselves. While I appreciate them accommodating us, I do not appreciate or accept being lied to. Clearly, something happened with the reservation or the room would have been ready or at least near ready. I again contacted Vacation Express and was told I would receive a return call; however, that call never came. As a result, my family waited over three hours before a room could be secured. Our family paid a lot of money for this trip only to be disappointed time and time again. These ongoing issues indicate a clear breakdown in communication between Vacation Express, Nexus, and the Hilton Mar Caribe. Additionally, due to these disruptions and the initial cancellation error, we missed our scheduled excursion to Chichen Itza. The first two days of what was meant to be a relaxing, all-inclusive vacation were instead stressful, disorganized, and far below the standard we expected when booking through this company. Upon returning home, we worked with all 3 companies, and none of them granted us a refund for any portion of the trip.

If the French Embassy/Consulate are reading - fire them. Appointment times are useless. Expect a minimum 3 hour wait. Staff is incompetent and process applications as slow as a 2 year old.

The lady reviewing the application was reading all personal information loud enough for anyone to conduct identify fraud of the person whose application is being reviewed. We pay a service fee to deal with this?

I'll definitely ask you to plan my next vacation.
