SOTC. Gave us an impressive evening where the games n quiz was well appreciated Many of us have travelled with SOTC over the years n have enjoyed our trips. Thank you for bringing back the pleasure of senior citizens group travel I’m looking fwd to a trip to Spain n Portugal

We had a fantastic experience during our Tour of Europe which was admirably organised by SOTC. The tour guides were knowledgeable and took us to all the relevant tourist spots which was on our wish list. We were put up in good hotels with multi cuisine breakfast buffet. We were transported in well maintained coaches with capable drivers and a friendly tour guide. I would definitely recommend SOTC tours to my friends and relatives.

_I booked my family trip to Kashmir through SOTC Secunderabad and want to specially thank Sales Coordinator Rajeswari._ _Rajeswari was extremely patient and knowledgeable. She customized the itinerary based on our needs, booked good hotels with mountain views, and made sure our permits and driver details were sorted in advance. When snowfall blocked roads to Gulmarg one day, she quickly rearranged the schedule so we didn’t lose a day._ _Her local tips on shopping, food, and warm clothes were a bonus. We felt safe and taken care of throughout. Kashmir is a beautiful place, and Rajeswari made the experience hassle-free._ _Would strongly recommend SOTC Secunderabad and Rajeswari for anyone planning Kashmir. Excellent service!_ *

Feedback Regarding China Tour Experience ( Feb 28-7 th March) I recently travelled to China with SOTC Travel, and unfortunately the trip did not fully meet my expectations. The snowfall in Beijing created major difficulties since most of the itinerary was planned around outdoor sightseeing. As senior citizens, the extremely cold weather and slippery conditions due to snowfall made it unsafe for us to walk around. We could barely stay at the Lake Palace and the Olympic Stadium for more than a few minutes. Travelling for over an hour by bus to reach these places, only to leave almost immediately, felt like a waste of time and energy. Given the slippery conditions, we simply could not take the risk. When I raised this concern with Amit and asked why we could not be taken to an indoor place instead, his response was that he had to follow the itinerary strictly. I agree he had no choice but follow the itennary, but then he asked me, “You tell me where should I take you?” Frankly, this is not the kind of response one expects from a seasoned tour manager. Customers expect guidance and practical solutions during difficult situations, not defensive replies. In such situations, I strongly feel there should be a Plan B. Weather conditions are unpredictable, and tour operators should be prepared with alternative indoor options when outdoor sightseeing becomes impractical or unsafe, especially for senior travellers. Such contingency plans should also be communicated clearly to customers in advance to avoid inconvenience and dissatisfaction. Similarly, the fountain show in Xi’an felt like a poor use of valuable time. Considering that we were in Xi’an for only one day, it was surprising that such an activity was included in the itinerary. That valuable time could have been utilised for more meaningful sightseeing. While Amit mentioned that SOTC would not have grown to this level if the planning was not good, I believe that no organisation can simply rely on its past reputation. Travel planning needs to remain flexible and adapt to changing circumstances and traveller expectations. That said, I would also like to acknowledge that the food, hotel stays, and bus arrangements were very well organised, and those aspects of the trip were handled efficiently by Amit. He was always on time, or even before time, to oversee the arrangements. I hope SOTC Travel will take this feedback constructively and consider improving flexibility in itineraries, especially when unforeseen situations like extreme weather arise. I would appreciate your response and assurance that such concerns will be addressed for future travellers. Sangeeta Reddy

So, patience, polite, quickly responded.

We had a great and wonderful experience to be associated with SOTC in our trip. I would like to appreciate the team from Secunderabad SOTC , in particular Rajeswari for her support in organising the trip in a well planned manner.
