Fahad has impeccable customer service skills. What I personally like about him is his ability to pay attention to detail and go above and beyond his call of duty to assist any client. Ever so reliable and up to the challenge when he has to get things done with a short deadline.

Fahad has been one of the remarkable people I have ever met in the travel industry. For the last few years, my family members and I haven't had a second thought of looking for another travel partner. Fahad's experience in the travel industry and his customer-centric way of handling things have always been a value add to us. In my recent medical travel to India during the COVID Lockdown, Fahad has just been outstanding in making sure that we get all the necessary prior approvals we needed. To be honest, he made that trip very easy for us. He is one person, that I would entrust on all my travels, He just knows what to be done!
