Fake company with fake guides
Fake company with fake guides. Signed up for a one month subscription but when it ended they just kept on withdrawing the payment from my account. And not surprisingly their customer service does NOT reply.
Do NOT use them!

Fake site, 100 percent fake .
No one ever replies,their ``guides`` just happen to be good looking,mostly women.
The profiles are fake.
Some of their `` guides `` even offer to show you around for ``free``?
I was looking for a guide in Addis Ababa,no one ever replies.
