Good day! I just wanted to thank you PINOY TOURISM, it’s my second time around to booked this EXCELLENT travel agency . The staffs are very accommodating and very responsive specially to sir EMIL who’s assisting me till the end!! Highly recommended this travel agency,best experience ever!🙏
July 1 – We visited Pinoy Tourism (agent: Ms. Cyra) to apply for an A-to-A exit. My boyfriend trusted her since she was the one who booked their tickets for their vacation in 2024. She offered a Sharjah flight for July 3, which we accepted because he needed to exit as soon as possible. We paid AED 1845. Initially, we thought she would apply for a Sharjah visa, as other agencies had told us that Dubai visas were risky due to high rejection rates. However, we later learned that what she actually offered was for a Dubai visa. Ms. Cyra explained that for cancellation cases, they typically apply for a Dubai visa, but for tourist visas, a Sharjah visa is being applied. July 2 evening – My boyfriend left Abu Dhabi for his 3 AM flight from Sharjah on July 3. July 3 – He exited to Kuwait and then returned to Sharjah, waiting for his visa. Before 6 PM, we received notification that his visa had been rejected. She informed him and asked if we wanted to reapply for a Sharjah visa, which would cost AED 1378. Given this situation, I decided to check with another agency and Re-applied his visa. Unfortunately his visa is still waiting for approval. July 5 Before 6PM, i received a call from Ms. Cyra, informing that we needed to book a flight for my BF ASAP because immigration had called and receive a warning that if he didn't leave that night or early the next morning, he would be deported. I asked her to check available flights and costs, and she found a one-way flight from Sharjah to Singapore for AED 4169. I called my friend, a travel supervisor at Bin Saleh, for help, and she contacted Ms. Cyra to discuss the situation. My friend advised me not to book the ticket, saying it was unlikely that immigration would call over the weekend, especially given that no visas were being approved. Following her advice, I decided not to book the flight. July 6 – At 11 AM, my boyfriend’s visa was approved, and he entered the UAE. To anyone reading this, please be careful when dealing with agents, even if the company is legitimate. You might experience something similar, and it seems some agents are taking advantage of the situation.
Extremely disappointed. When I asked about the possibility of an overstay fine, the agent said nothing and didn’t suggest rescheduling, even after seeing my mom flight details. She should have advised me properly, but showed no initiative. I ended up paying a fine and needing an outpass—all of which could’ve been avoided. Not professional at all.
And what happened with appointment was that we were clearly told ( on voice message) that our appointment is on 2/5/25 and then on 30/4/25 around afternoon randomly while discussing documents we discovered that appointment is on 1/5/25 ( No one mentioned to us that appt date has been changed) We had booked train tickets (140£ for both of us) to london on 2/5 We had to urgently book an emergency leave from hospital in order to attend appt on 1st and we even faced loss of 140£ train tickets since they were non refundable !!!

One of the, if not the best. They are very efficient and the travel agent who assisted me, Lyn is very accommodating and approachable. Not once did I experience any hassle or difficulty in booking with Pinoy Tourism. Will definitely book with them again someday. Again, thank you very much to Pinoy Tourism and to Ms. Lyn for the very wonderful service.

I was having difficulty with another travel agent to sort out my wife appointment for Schengen Visa and was referred to Pinoytourism on 24th June. The services I got that day is nothing compare to excellence and with peace of mind that I am in the right place. My wife got her visa with multiple entry. Thank you also with the option of payment that makes my life easy. Ife

Got my Schengen Visa to travel Europe in just 5 working days. I highly recommend Pinoy Tourism who guided me in my application from start until the arrival of my visa. They check your documents and make sure that everything is correct prior to the visa appearance appointment. They are very approachable and even replies to my late night messages. Many thanks to Lyn - I highly recommend her as your travel agent.
