New Zeeland we fell in love with you!…

What a fantastic trip and we are very pleased with Riksja. When we talked with otter people on oir trip, we felt blessed we were with Riksja🫶The hotels, the trips, the guides. All so well organized! And on top op that, we were accompanied by Tess… she gave us all kinds of useful tips (restaurants, tours, sites) via app at the time we were in a certain place. We were counting on her! When she was silent Some days, we missed her!

We booked a trip to Japanve

We booked a trip to Japan. They offered great suggestions and catered to our wishes and offered an amazing time. They planned everything out which meant we could sit back and enjoy our holiday. The team is very friendly and were always available for questions and feedback. The only criticism I have is how all information was shared with us over various emails - this meant I had to spend a lot of time in putting all this information into one concise document. Hopefully they can develop an app in the future which their customers can use to find all relevant information.

We opted for a private trip in Egypt

We opted for a private trip in Egypt. This went fantastic. What we liked the most was the caring attitude of our various guides. I felt very spoiled during the holiday. Everything went on time, and everything was arranged for us. Overall a great experience, we would decently do it this way again next time. What was also nice was the Watsapp service with ideas for sightseeing. Thank you for the beautiful holiday.

Great holiday in Jordanië

We travelled to Jordanie with Riksja Travel. Well organized thanks to Atlas Travel. A nice program thanks to Riksja! The whats app while traveling is a nice to have.

We had to contact riksja while during our trip while there was a misunderstanding about arranging accommodation. We also felt that accommodation @wadi Musa (Petra) was poor.

And last but not least it is important that riksja or atlas let hotels know when there is a family with children coming. We could have had family rooms in several hotels. Misted opportunity.

Riksja did what they had to do and so did atlas. Overall we have had a wonderful holiday with so much highlights!!

Jordan was a great experience. Riksja was so so

Jordan was a great experience. Their local agent Atlas Travel were very attentive and flexible. Riksja were available via WhatsApp but often referred me to phone the Netherlands (which is very expensive from overseas) Their initial booking process was quick but the person involved left the company and I needed to escalate to get vouchers etc. The hotel choices they had for Dubai stopover was poor and out of town so I sorted that out myself in Old Dubai which saved taxi fares. Trip to Jerash was good but could have been done without a tour guide. Accommodation at Petra and Camping at Wadi Rum were the highlights and made the trip worth while (especially camping under the stars) Amman could have been skipped to be honest and Dead Sea Resort was thankfully one night (there's not much to do)

a fantastic 2 week vacation in Costa Rica

We had a fantastic 2 week vacation in Costa Rica thanks to the great organisation of Riksja Travel. Everything was perfectly organised; nice tours, beautiful hotels, a very nicely timed planning in this gourgeous country. We saw turtles lay eggs, we had nice boat and walking tours through the jungle, we did some nice diving and saw sharks, we went to the cloud forest, saw sloths, toucans, we experienced how coffee chocolate and cane sugar is processed, saw beautiful beaches, did some surfing in the nicest surfing sea waves of the world. Everything was exceptionally wel organised (except for the weather as we had a lot of tropical rain). Thanks to the Costa Rica team of Riksja travel!

Positive emotions visiting Norway

The trip to Norway was really beautiful. The hotels arranged were in nice locations and easy to reach by car. Breakfasts were in all hotels very good, which helped for a good start of the day. One challenge was that quite some driving needed to be done. However overall it was a positive emotional holiday.

Discovering Amazing Albanie ... Thank you riksja !

We are delighted by the country (it exceeded all our expectations) and the services of Riksja travel. You really raised the bar for customer experience to a next level: the pre travel communication, the beautiful brochure with our journey, the small details such as a sim card, the great traditional but luxury accommodations, the tips along the journey from both the local agent as the dutch office, the quick and personal responses to mails and whatsapp ... we talk in superlatives .. but that's only trying to match the experience you gave us ! big thanks !

Great trip in South Africa

We had a great trip in South Africa, very well organized by Riksja, with our family with two kids 16 and 18. Both in planning and the actual trip they were very good advisers. We had great stays in B&Bs, very comfortable, some on stunning locations, although load shedding did not always help. The booked excursions were good! And there was plenty of time for us to organise our own activities and plan some relax time.
Also , during the trip we got some nice advices from Tess via app. We would certainly recommend Riksja to others for South Africa.

We enjoyed traveling with Riksja.

We enjoyed traveling with Riksja.
They help to organize a balanced trip for everybody's need in the family. The accomodations are not always luxurious but you are well informed about that and this makes it also more adventurous. If you like luxurious hotels suits Riksja is not for you. We really appreciated the variation in activities and accomodations.

Great experience

Great experience, great choice of accommodations and active communication.
One negative point of feedback: we missed more information about the border drop off and mayby a sort of checklist going out of Costa Rica into Nicaragua.

Mixed experiences sadly

Mixed experiences sadly. Was expecting them to come up with some nice fitting accommodations. But most of them were poorly, boring and some even filthy (even taking into account the post-COVID dust). Not worth the €216 you pay them for driver and hotels, especially when going to a reasonable priced country as Sri Lanka.

Positieve experiences in Jordan

We really enjoyed travelling with Riksja (25M and 24F). Definitely would advise using a travel agency in Jordan. Riksja is a safe and cheap option. We did not have any troubles during our trip and did memorable things almost constantly. There were some hotels that were less spacious/luxurious (we were informed about this on forehand) so if you are looking for a luxurious type of holiday this might not be for you.
