This is a major scam. Rakesh, the owner of this company, doesn’t refund your money. I booked a Maldives tour on February 24, but the package I paid for was not provided. Instead, I was given accommodations at smaller hotels. He promised a refund but never followed through, and eventually, he stopped answering my calls.
