Be careful - they are fraud/scammers

Be careful, they are scammers. They will first convince you by showing visa success stories, and then later after they have taken the money, they don't care whoever you're, therefore beware of this service; they engage in deceptive practices. Initially, they showcase success stories with visa approvals to gain your trust, only to disappoint later when they have pocketed your money. Their lack of concern and unwillingness to cooperate become apparent once the payment is made. Despite being charged 300 SAR as service fees, the visa application was never submitted due to incomplete documentation. To make matters worse, I ended up paying an additional 1000 SAR for attestations and travel expenses, all of which proved to be a futile expenditure since the Spanish visa application was never processed. Exercise caution and consider alternative services to avoid falling victim to their scam.ll not cooperate any more. They asked to pay 300 SAR as service charges but Visa application was never submitted due to documentation was not complete. I paid almost 1000 SAR extra for attestations and travel but all went to waste because application was never submitted for Spanish visa.
They have fixed number of templates which they copy/paste for every visa applicatoin. They will even buy insurances on your behalf which are mostly non-refundable even the application is not submitted.

I have now compiled a case against this company and am in the process of submitting a formal complaint to the Dubai Police, as well as to the Department of Economy and Tourism in Dubai.

Hi Muhammad Asif,

We're truly sorry to hear about your experience. While your frustration is completely valid, I want to assure you that a lot has changed since early 2024. We’ve overhauled our processes, improved documentation checks, and tightened agent accountability - no more copy-paste templates or silence after payment.

We’d still like to make this right for you. If you're open to it, please drop us a message with your details so we can personally review your case again.

Hey Shanid,

We're really sorry you felt this way and honestly, this kind of feedback stings because it's exactly what we’ve been working hard to change. Since December 2023, we've upgraded our customer service structure, added direct escalation channels, and made sure no one gets left in the dark or stuck without a response.

We’d love the chance to earn back your trust - if you're open to revisiting the conversation, we’re ready to take it seriously this time.

Be carefully

Yesterday I received WhatsApp messages from them and they sent me some visa opportunities. But I wondered how they got my number. If they are efficient in doing that better request the payment on a done base. Once the visa is completed then only transfer the payment. Because whatever the payment in advance is never refundable in case of rejection also agents make money only clients lose.

Hi Maqsood!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, though we’re a bit surprised, as it seems no services were actually availed before the review was posted. We completely understand the concern about payment terms, and that’s why we’re upfront from the beginning: visa processing involves admin efforts regardless of outcome, and our fees reflect the work done, not just the result.

That said, we never want anyone to feel uneasy about how we operate. Your data privacy matters, and we only reach out to those who’ve engaged with us through ads, inquiries, or referrals. If that wasn’t the case with you, we’d be happy to investigate how your number was added - just drop us a message and we’ll sort it out.

We believe in real conversations, not assumptions and we’re here if you’d like to actually experience our service before judging it.

Hi Sonia!

We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience last year. We know late responses don’t fix past frustrations, but we still wanted to acknowledge your feedback.

Since then, we’ve made significant internal changes - from restructuring our support team to tightening follow-up protocols. What you described shouldn’t have happened, and it definitely wouldn’t be the case with how we operate today.

Thank you for calling it out, your voice helped us grow.

Hi Ashique,

We hear you, loud and clear. Your experience clearly didn’t match the standards we aim to uphold, and we’re sorry for how things turned out.

We won’t pretend a reply months later fixes the frustration you felt, but since then, we’ve reworked our management structure and upgraded how we handle escalations. What you went through wasn’t okay, and it’s helped shape the serious improvements we’ve made.

Thank you for holding us accountable as you helped push change in the right direction.

US Visa within a month

I got my US Visa within a month with my family from Malaysia.

Thanks to House of tours specially Mr Raffik and Miss Bhindya who helped me a lot in documentations, step by step guidance and a whole journey.

Areas to improved: The agent who manages DS-160 form need to communicate properly and clear all the doubts and should be more pro-active.

Well Overall i am satisfied.

We hear you and yep, back in October 2023, we had growing pains (read: some chaos, some learning, lots of coffee). But since then, we’ve made serious upgrades, stronger processes, better-trained teams, and a lot more accountability across the board.

We’re not the same team you met back then, and we’d love the chance to show you just how far we’ve come.

Thanks for your feedback, it helped push the transformation.

Highly not recommended

They are cheaters. Not keeping the promises. I don't even like to give a single star.
During my payment, they agreed for early check-in with the hotel. Later when I reached the hotel in Tbilisi at 06AM, I was pushed out to wait outside of hotel till afternoon 2PM. when I called the staff in Doha regarding this issue, She ( Linu - House of tours staff) ask me to Keep the luggage in reception & roam around on street till the check in time. Instead of keeping up the promises, she misguided me. They are fakery charging for all things from the customers without providing it.
They will ask for full payment. Once you pay their approach will be totally poor.
They charged me for a 4-star hotel room stay. But they have arranged me lower category hotel to save their budget from their commission. I was surprised & got a room on the 4th floor without a lift. No telephone, No other services. How come a 4-star hotel without any amenities?.
They have charged me with more prices and with more promises but no amenities. Totally the House of tours is a fraud agency. Sure, I will not recommend this fake agency to anybody.

Hi Syed,

We're really sorry to hear about your experience back then, especially with the early check-in confusion and hotel mismatch. That shouldn’t have happened, and your frustration is completely valid.

A lot has changed since 2023. We've upgraded how we confirm hotel details, standardized early check-in processes, and improved real-time support to make sure situations like yours don’t repeat.

While we can’t change what happened, we truly appreciate you calling it out - it helped push us to do better.

Wishing you smoother journeys ahead.

Strictly not recommended!!!

I've been dealing with this agent since the beginning of March and got the appointment only on 17 May through Germany. At first, I doubt as Germany seems giving a low approval rate compare to others, but he then convinced me. I gave him the information that he asked for and pay full in advance then another lady took over the next day and asked the same question. I was confused why was the information not been noted. They told me that the documents will be share in 4-5 days before the appoinment which made me annoyed as I would not have much time to review due to busy work but guest what...they only shared the documents only 2 days before appointment and that also after many revisement. The itinerary was non sense and also was not match with the flight time, it look all stranged and I was nervous as it was all last minute. I asked them to revise the itinerary but they said they can’t make changes as it generated automatically. So why should I pay for you if you can’t help?? I submitted all of them with hope of luck but finally,,,,my visa application got rejected.
Such a waste time and money for this agency.

Hi Eva,

We’re genuinely sorry to read this and even though it’s been some time, your feedback still matters to us. We understand how critical timely communication and proper documentation are, especially with visa processes that can already be stressful.

Since 2022, we’ve restructured our visa handling systems, improved agent coordination, and set stricter internal review timelines so that no client feels unheard or rushed.

Thank you for highlighting the gaps, reviews like yours helped shape the better systems we now have in place.

Wishing you smoother travels ahead.

HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED - READ

I would highly not recommend their service for Schengen Visa. Especially working with Sneha is a total loss and she doesn't know how the system works. I specially requested to keep the PNRs valid for some days until Embassy runs checks. I applied for Schengen visa for first time through them and I even paid additional money for LIVE ticket and LIVE hotel + Travel Insurance as the Embassy tends to verify the PNRs, Couple days before the interview I received the booking documents + Cover Letter (Just a very dumb cover letter stating I work in this company and I need your tourist visa, That's it!.. wouldn't even convince myself to give visa if I were an officer). Anyhow trusting they would be experienced I went with the documents they gave and turns out on day of Appointment my Hotel Booking they gave was cancelled and ticket also was cancelled which I wasn't aware of. The documents were submitted to corresponding Embassy through VFS along with their fee around $110

And as I returned home I felt no good, Decided to check the documents such as Hotel + Ticket PNRs and turns out they are cancelled/invalid. That moment I knew I am going to face rejected no matter what and my money over $200 paid to these guys for their service is wasted. Few days later I receive notice to collect my Passport from VFS and the Visa has been rejected under condition "Documents submitted regarding purpose of travel and conditions of stay were not reliable". I tried to appeal and they rejected appeal within 2 days and I believe I was rejected for two reasons:

- Firstly the hotel booking they gave was cancelled in 48 hours (It was no pre-payment booking) so they didn't have to cancel and I also requested them not to but Sneha anyway let it get cancelled and ruined my application. So when the application went through VFS the booking was invalid so Embassy officer checks he instantly know It's a dummy fake booking which is instant reject

- Secondly the dumbest cover letter provided for me by Sneha, Very unprofessional and highly rejectable. All It says is like "I work in x company holding positing y and I need to apply for your country visa for experience place and food" .. Honestly not very convincing because even myself I don't get the feel myself that any effort were put to this writing.

What's worse is I messaged Sneha and she completely wouldn't respond and days later she wants me to try again by paying the fees to their service to have a better chance, Hell no!! Especially when I made special request to them to keep the PNRs valid for some days prior to payment and they promised they would and when they cancelled it even before submitting to Embassy. It's a simple no!

Just don't apply Schengen / Canada Visa with these guys, They are unprofessional and gonna leave your Passport with a Reject in those country database.

Hi John!

We hear you, and honestly, you were right to feel frustrated. Two years ago, our processes clearly fell short, especially in communication and documentation quality. Since then, we've made some serious changes: verified PNR tracking, stronger documentation standards, and a complete rework of how we support Schengen and Canada applicants.

Your experience helped spark those improvements, and we truly regret that you had to go through it. Thank you for sharing it and if you ever choose to give us another shot, we’d make sure it looks nothing like last time.

Hi Leslie,

This one hurt to read and honestly, we don’t blame you. What you described from 2023 is not okay. Delayed docs, poor communication, and broken promises? That’s a CX nightmare and fully on us.

Since then, we've rebuilt a lot, new internal SLAs, better visibility on file progress, and a stricter escalation system for accountability. You shouldn't have been chasing updates before an embassy appointment, ever.

We’re sorry you had to deal with that version of us. Today’s version is far from perfect, but a whole lot sharper. Appreciate you holding the mirror up - even if it stung.

A Positive Experience with houseoftours.com

I recently used the services of houseoftours.com to assist me with acquiring a US visa and I couldn't be more satisfied with the level of service provided.
The staff members I worked with, Ms. Swetha and Ms. Anjitha, were both extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous throughout the entire process. Not only did they provide me with clear and detailed instructions on the application process, but they also followed up with me regularly to ensure that I was on track and had all the necessary documents in order.
Thanks to their efforts, I was able to obtain my US visa in a timely manner and with minimal hassle. I would highly recommend houseoftours.com to anyone in need of visa assistance or other travel-related services.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my experience with houseoftours.com and their staff members, Ms. Swetha and Ms. Anjitha. They are truly dedicated to providing exceptional service and making the visa application process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Thank you again for all of your help!
