Tourlane: Again and again
Very competent contact person. Great travel planning with super accommodation. The contact person on site (Terra Nova) was also very easy to reach. Great value for money. We will definitely book our next big trip through Tourlane again.
Reliable from start to finish
Really very good from start to finish. I was a little skeptical at first, but I immediately felt that I was in very good hands. The consultants take a lot of time, respond to individual wishes and implement the desired goal excellently. All documents are available and can be viewed at any time, so there is always transparency from the outset. If there are any challenges, there is always someone available and working on a solution. I couldn't have planned it any better or cheaper myself. In the event of small mishaps that can happen on the trip, the local circumstances are responsible and not the travel planners, who themselves then provide support.
Again and again with pleasure
The professionalism, friendliness and helpfulness of our consultant as well as the appealing form of presentation never fails to impress, especially because it is so easy to share all the planning steps with the whole family. Since I've known Tourlane, I honestly wouldn't set foot in a local travel agency again. It's not only a huge time saver, it's simply timely. Thank you!
