We had a super great time!

We had a super great time! We travel a lot but never used a company with a group before. We were reluctant and unsure however pleasantly surprised! Our tour guide Sharky was amazing! Organized, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. He made our trip a 5 star! We highly recommend this company especially if you're on a tighter budget since upgrades are not mandatory. We upgraded tours and hotels but most in our group did not and were very satisfied as well. Not only did we truly enjoy our vacation, we made new friends 😊 Until next time! Thank you Affordable World!

Amazing experience in Thailand

The fact that I didn't have to worry about anything because everything was already organized and planned for. The tour guide in Thailand was amazing and very helpful attending to all of us at all times. All the places we visited were fabulous fill with ancient history. The only negative experience was the AC in the van that was used to transport us. We asked the guide tour lady to ask the driver to fix it because the heat was so bad during our stay. He fixed it. Singapore was not as great as Thailand, everything is so expensive and the last day we couldn't even eat breakfast because we needed to be at the airport before the buffet open up. We asked the reception to switch our breakfast for a lunch but they denied us. Thailand is a great place to visit. Singapore, however is not family or pet friendly there aren't many places to go and everything is too expensive. The Singapore airlines are okay, food isn't bad, but there is no wifi unless you pay for it. I think the wifi should be included especially in long trips.

Great experience.

Guide made sure his group was safe, on time and educated. English was a little broken.
Sites were great and as expected.
There was one hotel that was not as expected.
Overall we loved the tour and will use this company again.

Great experience

Great experience, the hotels were nice and attentive. The Pick up and drop off were on time and on a comfortable vehicle. I give 4 stars because only one tour was included in the package the others were optional.

Wonderful Thailand Trip

We had a wonderful experience in Thailand. Noom, our guide was fantastic. The flights, hotels, excursions, and food were all exceptional. Thank you Affordable World Tours.

Great Trip at a Great Price!

Great Trip at a Great Price!
I have not stopped recommending Affordable World since I got back from Bali! The hotels were great, the travel was well planned and the tours/guides were amazing. I could not have planned a better trip myself and there is no way I would have been able to find a better value for the money spent! If you've ever wanted to travel to a place where Affordable World has a trip, don't event hesitate! Book today!

We were extremely impressed with Affordable World. All of our accommodations and transports were very well done. We noticed that most of the other tours and transports were much larger but our tours and transports were smaller and more personable. The local guides gave us their personal contacts and encouraged us to reach out to them at any time. Affordable World treated us like VIPs. We look forward to using Affordable World for our next trip.

10/10

10/10 from the start of the trip to the end of the trip including flights/hotels/excursions. I would recommend to all of my friends, and I will definitely plan on traveling again with them. Thailand was amazing and everything in the description online flowed exactly as listed. Itinerary was clear on what to expect. Our tour guide (patty) was also 10/10 upon arrival. :)

The trip was well organized and the tour guides were accommodating to our requests. Only a few complaints: is the room at the beach hotel had cold water for the shower, a live cockroach in the sink, and the pool area was not comfortable (small and not a lot of space to really enjoy the pool). We ended up using the hotel pool next door which was lovely.

Highly recommend this tour company after two great trips!

We went on the Japan Highlights tour and it was wonderful! The local guide, Izumi, was very helpful and shared great information about daily life in Japan. The hotels were clean and in good locations. The hotel in Hakone was a bit rundown compared to the other hotels but the hot spring onsen was a great experience. The bus was clean and an easy way to get from city to city. We opted to book a non-stop flight ourselves.
This was our second Affordable World Tour (went to Greece previously) and both were very well run!

Greece

Overall, this was an excellent experience, especially for the price. My only feedback is with regard to location of two of our hotels: The hotel in Athens, while perfectly suitable, was not in a nice location at all. Our hotel in Mykonos was also very far off the beaten path. While there was a shuttle to town, on our first night at the hotel, we didn't want to go all the way back into town but there was an option just a few miles away (like 3 miles) and a cab ride there was $35 each way.
Otherwise, everything was great and ran smoothly. I would recommend for those looking for an Affordable (no pun intended) way to travel abroad!

Having a tour guide pick you up at the airport and send you back at the airport and everything in between was amazing. Our guide went beyond The tour itinerary helped us get adventures booked during downtime. Hotels were in excellent locations and very high-end. We got to experience everything from city life to jungle life to life. Highly recommend only thing I would say is if we could get the detailed agenda and tipping requirements prior to our trip it would be much more more helpful.

Making memories

Great experience for four women going on a “Girls Trip”. Affordable World’s pricing made it a little easier for us to make the decision to go and when we got to Bali, our tour guide Bagus was very helpful and accommodating. The rooms/hotels that Affordable World provided were nice although we wished we had rooms close to each other. Great trip for us and we made great memories.

Affordable World is the way to go!

Affordable World is doing an exceptional job. Although the prices are insanely reasonable, they do not scrimp on the quality. Everything was first class! Such an amazing experience! Even before my trip, I had to contact customer service a few times to ask some questions and for assistance. The rep was kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. She took care of me right away with no runaround or frustration.

This trip and tour was amazing

This trip and tour was amazing. Everything was organized so well I didn’t have to stress about figuring out any kind of transportation or anything so I truly enjoyed the experience. We will definitely use Affordable World again in the future. I enjoyed that we also had lots of free time to do whatever we wanted to do and the tour guides both were absolutely fantastic. Thank you to Alice and Noom

We had used their services for Athens

We had used their services for Athens, Santorini and Mykonos trip last year with great customer service, guides, airport pickups, excursions, hotels and overall a pleasant experience. Keeping that in mind, we did japan tour in April 2024 which lacked everything. Not a pleasant trip.
