点评:The agency is not reliable . They switched from accepting credit card to cash/Zelle after charging my credit card the initial payment of $1400 for ticket. Also I was supposed to get a superior room in the entire tour but, according to supervisor ( Ricardo De Groz) in SANA hotel in Lisbon, my room was exactly like the others. The hotel location and the quality was far from what we were told by Amiri and the condition and service was terrible. The tour itself( Portugal/ Spain) was also not as it it was described. We were almost 3 days on the bus(sometimes as long as 8-9 hrs( which they could use train for 2-3 hrs instead ).The worst part of the bus riding other than tiredness was that there was no road sightseeing other than desert and some olive trees. The tour leader was from a different country. So Amiri could save couple hundred dollars more. Although he was kind and nice but, the way he handled very flexible on the late people and wasted other people time in the tour. Like waiting up to 20 min for behind and delayed people at the cost of the other people time. Plus he didn’t have all the ability of a leader, like fluent English. The promised food was good except those 2 lunches which were in the cheapest available restaurant ( not good at all).The last night dinner was very good but, again Amiri wanted to save money , we had to walk under cold , windy and rainy ( 55 F)weather about 15 min going to and coming back from the restaurant between 8:30 to 11 pm( some people had to go to the airport at 3 am).The Flights had its own problem too. I was 22 hrs in flights and lay over for an actual of9 hrs flight from Madrid to LAX b/c while Amiri is more expensive in comparison to the the tours, they got us the cheapest and longest flights. Some people were writing a complaint letter on the tour and gathering signatures for it.
DO NOT.RECOMMEND it at all. It was my first and the last ever
翻译:这家旅行社不可信。在我用信用卡支付了1400美元的机票预付款后,他们便不再接受信用卡付款,转而要求使用现金或Zelle转账。原本承诺在整个行程中会给我安排一间更高级的房间,但据里斯本SANA酒店的主管里卡多·德·格罗兹所说,我的房间其实和其他房间没什么两样。酒店的地理位置与品质也远不及Amiri旅行社所描述的那样,设施和服务更是糟糕透顶。这次旅行本身(葡萄牙/西班牙)也和宣传描述的不一样。我们在大巴上待了将近3天(有时甚至要坐8到9个小时,其实这段路程坐火车只需2到3小时)。除了疲劳之外,坐大巴最糟糕的一点就是沿途除了沙漠和几棵橄榄树外什么风景都看不到。导游来自另一个国家,这样一来Amiri就能再省下几百美元。虽然他为人友善、态度很好,但是……他处理迟到游客的方式非常随意,还浪费了其他游客的游览时间。比如为了等待那些迟到的人,让其他人苦等了长达20分钟。此外,他也不具备一个领队应有的能力,比如流利的英语。承诺提供的餐食总体不错,只是有两顿午餐是在最便宜的餐馆吃的(品质极差)。最后一天的晚餐倒是很不错,但阿米里为了省钱,我们不得不在寒风中步行回去。风大且下雨(气温约55华氏度)。晚上8点半到11点之间,我们往返餐厅大约花了15分钟(有些人凌晨3点还得赶去机场)。航班本身也有问题。我从马德里飞往洛杉矶的航程实际耗时22小时,其中中转等待时间就占了9小时。虽然Amiri旅行社的费用比普通旅行团要高,但他们给我们安排的却是最便宜但耗时最长的航班。有些人正在撰写投诉信并征集签名。
千万别这么做。绝对不推荐。那是我第一次也是最后一次尝试。
