I have used AirTreks for 3 RTW trips. Shortest - 3 months, longest - 9 months. Support was there all the way when I needed help. I am so grateful for the help I received. AirTreks was the fastest & easiest way to plan my trip. All planning was done through emails and made such planning a breeze. My last trip I had issues with going to India twice and the travel agency were there to help me. I did not make it to India but that was outside the scope of their commitment to my travel plans. I found that the required funds for payment were handled with ease. I can not say enough about how happy I am with the service I received from AirTreks.
