Exemplary service World Tour Store
I had called World Tour Store before and called them again yesterday, and could not get a price that was agreeable and left it. Today Priyanka who I had dealt with, called to offer a good price. Other agents did not but she did. I immediately gave the offer to my friend who has since accepted it. I have also bought a separate route for me. It was at a good price in business class and according to what we wanted. Priyanka thank you for a best service, a considerate and a patient person. I have passed your details to my friend in Sweden and another in the UK. Thank you World Tour Store wonderful staff.

Moscow International Business Center (Moscow City)
- Guide to Russia
What can you do at Moscow City?
- Dine in style: Moscow City is home to 100+ cafes and restaurants, including Europe’s highest restaurant and ice-cream shop
- See Moscow like never before: Ascend to one of Moscow City’s observation decks for an unparalleled panorama of Moscow
- Admire world-class architecture: Each of Moscow City’s skyscrapers has distinctive architecture and design
- Learn something new: Visit the Museum of High-Rise Architecture in Moscow or the Metro Museum
Moscow City is a multifunctional complex in the west of Moscow, which has come to represent the booming business of Russia’s capital. Its skyscrapers enrich Moscow’s skyline, contrasting the medieval cupolas and Stalinist high-rises. Visitors to Moscow City can enjoy entertainment high in the sky, as the complex is home not just to offices, but to restaurants, cinemas, viewing platforms, and museums.

History of Moscow City
Moscow City was first conceived in 1991 by honoured Soviet architect Boris Tkhor, who proposed to construct a business center in Moscow. It would be complete with gleaming skyscrapers rivalling those of New York and London, to reflect the new life and growing ambitions of post-Soviet Russia.
The chosen site was a stone quarry and disused industrial zone in western Moscow, in between the Third Ring Road and Moskva River. Initially, the territory was divided into 20 sections arranged in a horseshoe shape around a central zone. The skyscrapers would increase in height as they spiralled around the central section, with shorter structures built on the waterfront to give the taller buildings behind a view of the river.
Architect Gennady Sirota, who contributed to iconic projects such as the Olympic Sports Complex on Prospekt Mira, was selected as the chief architect, and many other world-famous architects were attracted to Moscow to realise their visions in Moscow City.
What can you see and do at Moscow City?
Where Moscow’s cityscape was once dominated by Stalin’s Seven Sisters skyscrapers , this is no more. Moscow City is home to eight of Russia’s ten tallest buildings, six of which exceed 300 metres in height. More buildings are still under construction there today, including the One Tower (which will be Europe’s second-tallest building). Once completed, Moscow City will comprise more than 20 innovative structures.
Each of Moscow City’s skyscrapers was designed by its own architect, lending the cluster of skyscrapers a unique appearance. Aside from being a site of architectural wonder, Moscow City is a place for leisure and entertainment with over 100 cafes and restaurants, exhibition spaces, cinemas, viewing platforms, and more.

- Moscow Tower: 302m, 76 floors; St Petersburg Tower: 257m, 65 floors
- Completed in 2009
- Architect: Bureau NBBJ
The unique geometric design of the City of Capitals towers resembles stacks of rotating blocks, and is rooted in Constructivism of the early Soviet period (many Soviet Constructivist buildings can be found in Moscow).

Outside the Evolution tower is a landscaped terrace and pedestrian zone descending to the Presnenskaya Embankment, which was also designed by Nikandrov.

The Red Square and beyond: a guide to Moscow’s neighbourhoods
Apr 23, 2019 • 6 min read
The Red Square, Kremlin and St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow at night © Mordolff / Getty Images
One of the world’s largest cities, Moscow is a true metropolis whose ancient neighbourhoods are interspersed with newly built high-rises, inhabited by people from all over the former Soviet Union.
It’s also the city of rings: the innermost is the Kremlin itself; further away are the former defensive rings, Boulevard Ring and Garden Ring; still further are the Third Ring Road and the MKAD, which delineates the city’s borders. There’s an ongoing joke that Moscow Mayor is the Lord of the Rings. Most sights are contained within the Garden Ring, although for some more authentic neighbourhoods one has to venture further out. To help you explore Moscow’s diversity, we picked our favourite ’hoods – but this list is by no means exhaustive.
The Red Square and around
It can be argued that Moscow, or even the whole of Russia, starts at the Red Square – it’s an absolute must-see for any visitor. After standing in line to check out Lenin’s granite mausoleum , go to GUM , Moscow's oldest department store. Full of luxury shops, it’s famous for the glass roof designed by one of Russia’s most celebrated architects, Vladimir Shukhov. Apart from architectural wonders, GUM has several places to eat including the Soviet-style cafeteria Stolovaya No 57 where you can sample mysterious-sounding delicacies such as the ‘herring in a fur coat’.
On the opposite side of GUM, Kremlin ’s walls and towers rise above the Red Square. Walk through the Alexander Garden and past the grotto to the Kremlin’s entrance. It’s a treasure trove for any art and history lover: ancient gold-domed churches, icons galore and the resting place of Moscow tsars.
On the other side of the Red Square is Moscow's symbol, St Basil's Cathedral with its multi-colored domes. Right behind it is the newly built Zaryadye Park , which showcases flora from all over Russia; another attraction is the floating bridge jutting out above the embankment and the Moscow river. A glass pavilion nearby hosts Voskhod , a space-themed restaurant with dishes from all 15 former Soviet Union republics. It’s a perfect spot for a classy evening meal and there’s often live music.
Patriarch’s Ponds
The Patriarch’s Ponds (aka Patriki) is a historical neighbourhood, celebrated in Mikhail Bulgakov’s novel Master and Margarita . Located right off Tverskaya street, Moscow’s main thoroughfare, Patriki recently became the city’s most happening quarter. It has some of the most elegant architecture, including several buildings by art-nouveau genius Fyodor Shekhtel. Narrow streets here have a cozy feel, with recently widened sidewalks and bike lanes. In the summer it becomes party central.
Start by checking out free exhibitions or one of the cutting-edge performances at the experimental theatre Praktika . But make no mistake, the neighbourhood’s main attraction are its bars and restaurants. Patriki’s residents are well-off Russians and expats, so it’s no wonder that Moscow’s recent culinary revolution started here. Uilliam’s , one of the pioneers of this foodie movement, still rules over the scene with its floor-to-ceiling windows. Also try AQ Chicken for everything chicken-related, Patara for a taste of Georgian cuisine, and Cutfish for some great sushi. Finish your gastronomic tour with original cocktails at Pinch or the Moscow outpost of NYC restaurant Saxon+Parole .
Around Kursky train station
For a long time, Kursky train station was surrounded by semi-abandoned factories and the area was best avoided. It all changed in the late 2000s, when a dilapidated wine factory was turned into Winzavod , a mecca for fans of contemporary art. Today these red-brick buildings are occupied by some of Moscow’s leading galleries. After taking in all the art, pop in the small wine bar Barrell for a glass from burgeoning wineries of Russia’s south or grab a bite at Khitrye Lyudi cafe.
Right next to Winzavod is Artplay , another refurbished factory full of design and furniture shops and large exhibition spaces. It’s also home to Pluton , one of the latest additions to Moscow’s dance scene. Other Pluton residents are the multimedia art gallery Proun and another lunch option, Shanhaika , with authentic Chinese cuisine.
A short walk away is Arma, where a cluster of circular gas holders has been turned into offices, restaurants and clubs including Gazgolder (it belongs to one of Russia’s most famous rappers, Basta). Apart from hip-hop concerts, Gazgolder organises regular techno parties that sometimes go non-stop from Friday to Monday.
If you’re interested in religious architecture, Taganka is the place to go. First of all, see the old Moscow at Krutitskoye Podvorye – one of those places where nothing seems to have changed in centuries. The monastery was founded in the 13th century, but in the 16th century it became the home of Moscow metropolitans and most of the surviving buildings are from that epoch. Take a tour of the grounds, and don’t miss the interior and icons of the Assumption Cathedral.
Your next stop is the Rogozhskoe settlement of ‘old believers’, a branch that split from Russian Orthodoxy in the 17th century. The settlement is dominated by an 80m-tall bell tower. The yellow-coloured Intercession Church, built in neoclassical style with baroque elements, has an important collection of icons. Next to the church grounds is the popular Trapeznaya cafeteria, with Russian food cooked using traditional recipes – a perfect spot for lunch.
A short ride away is Andronikov Monastery, which today houses the Rublyov Museum in the old monks’ quarters. There’s a great collection of ancient Orthodox icons although none by Andrei Rublyov, who was a monk here in the 15th century. The main attraction at the monastery is the small Saviour’s Cathedral, considered the oldest surviving church in Moscow.
Finish the day at the craft-beer cluster around Taganskaya metro station. Varka offers both Russian and imported labels, with the Burger Heroes stand serving arguably the best burgers in town. Craft & Draft looks more like a respectable old-fashioned pub, with decent food, 20 beers on tap and a hundred types of bottled brews.
Khamovniki is Moscow’s ancient textile district, named after the word kham (a type of cloth). Two main thoroughfares, Ostozhenka and Prechistenka, cut through the neighbourhood parallel to each other. The former turned into the so-called ‘Golden Mile’ of Moscow in the 1990s, with the highest real-estate prices and some of the best examples of new Russian architecture, while the latter is still mostly lined up with impressive 19th-century mansions.
Khamovniki is somewhat of a literary quarter, as several museums devoted to Russia’s best-known writers – among them Leo Tolstoy , Alexander Pushkin and Ivan Turgenev – popped up here during the last century. There’s also plenty to see for an art lover. The Multimedia Art Museum regularly hosts exhibitions by some of the best photographers from all over the world, as well as contemporary art. Several galleries, including RuArts and Kournikova Gallery , have also found home in Khamovniki.
When you’ve had your fill of literature and art, stop by Gorod Sad on Ostozhenka, an outpost of a local health-food chain, and order dishes such as pumpkin soup or grilled vegetables salads. Afterwards, head to Dom 12 , which is located just off Ostozhenka street. This restaurant and wine bar is frequented by the city’s intellectuals and its schedule includes lectures, book presentations and film screenings, while in the summer guests migrate to a lovely courtyard.

DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE
DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE. FRAUD This company is not legit. Before I booked I phoned them and asked if you enter your card number is your booking confirmed. I was told yes. Booked return flights. 5 mins later I took a phone call saying they needed more money. £300. I said no. They said I had to pay as the outbound flight was confirmed but needed more money to get me home. I said to cancel the booking. They said they couldn’t as outbound was confirmed. This call lasted over an hour. Contacted bank. It was fraud. Was harassed on phone by World Tour Store all night. This only stopped when I told them they were being investigated for fraud. To reiterate this company is not legit. Bank has advised they keep you on phone so they can take more money when they are on the phone to you…ie you can’t phone bank as they are on phone preventing you phone.

Price Scam Tales ARE True
Price Scam Tales ARE True, After going through the whole booking process online, I had an email saying the booking was "in process". I had a phone call form an agent in five minutes, she said she would see what the problem was, after another five minutes on hold she says somebody else had bought the ticket, and gave me a price about 20% higher. I would also need to pay for carry on luggage which was in the original price. I've had another call from them making a new offer, I'm not convinced by their methods. I hadn't looked at trust pilot but I'm glad I have now. Not risking my money with them!!

We hope you will understand that Flight booking is a dynamic process done globally on millions of website at the same time, it happens quite often in the online booking process that by the time you have selected the flight and the time you enter the payment details the same flight/price or any one leg of the journey is sold out/waitlisted and the system automatically puts the booking under process and your CARD IS NOT CHARGED and NO CARD DETAILS ARE STORED BY THE SYSTEM. The fare which is displayed in the system won’t last it gets certain time to be updated with the availability as the live fare which is displayed are dynamic in nature and get changed instantly based on availability. As to make the process ease and in order to hold and confirm the required amount of seats we do ask our passengers to make the payments at the earliest and we do inform the live fare to our customers. Before issuing the E-Tickets and crediting the money our team does call back to assist and with the best available fares and prices and help to complete the booking. We do explain and double check the travelling details with our customers and after their confirmation through via mail we start the process to the issuance from our side, and once the tickets are issued we do mail and inform them with the same. you may refer to our positive reviews as well where it proves that we have served our customers to the best of our ability. You may always call us at 02039704141 for your flight, hotel and holiday bookings and we can guarantee you to offer the best price available.

Very negative and stressful experience…
Very negative and stressful experience with World Tour Store. I booked a flight online on their website and made the payment. They make you hurry to make the payment within 5 to 10 mins. After 2 days of payment , there is still no ticket issued. They keep calling and give excuses like extra baggage, even though baggage was mentioned in the ticket, waitlisted legs, dynamic tickets, however the same price was available on their website since 5 days and the booking was also done within the timeframe mentioned on their site. Very shady practices.
Date of experience : January 20, 2024
We hope you will understand that Flight booking is a dynamic process done globally on millions of website at the same time, it happens quite often in the online booking process that by the time you have selected the flight and the time you enter the payment details the same flight/price or any one leg of the journey is sold out/waitlisted and the system automatically puts the booking under process and your CARD IS NOT CHARGED and NO CARD DETAILS ARE STORED BY THE SYSTEM. The fare which is displayed in the system won’t last it gets certain time to be updated with the availability as the live fare which is displayed are dynamic in nature and get changed instantly based on availability. As to make the process ease and in order to hold and confirm the required amount of seats we do ask our passengers to make the payments at the earliest. Before issuing the E-Tickets and crediting the money our team does call back to assist and with the best available fares and prices and help to complete the booking. We do explain and double check the travelling details with our customers and after their confirmation through via mail we start the process to the issuance from our side, and once the tickets are issued we do mail and inform them with the same. you may refer to our positive reviews as well where it proves that we have served our customers to the best of our ability. You may always call us at 02039704141 for your flight, hotel and holiday bookings and we can guarantee you to offer the best price available.

Now and then: What Moscow looked like when it was rural (PHOTOS)
Moscow was not built at once - the ancient city is still expanding, annexing new villages and towns. In total, over 220 rural settlements became Moscow districts, but the exact number of them is hard to estimate. Active development of the outskirts started in 1960, when it became necessary to solve housing (many people lived in communal apartments) and traffic (with the construction of the Moscow Ring Road) problems. Then, Moscow, with its six million inhabitants, increased almost twice in size and its new districts filled up with panel houses , which defined the appearance of ANY residential area in Russia until recently. By the 1980s, when the number of official residents exceeded eight million, Moscow went beyond the Moscow Ring Road, joining the districts of Butovo, Zhulebino and others. And, in 2012, the 12 million-people strong Moscow increased by almost 2.5 times again, annexing several towns up to the border with Kaluga Region, thereby becoming Europe’s largest city. Today’s residential areas include lots of high-rises, shopping malls, parks and public sites. We’ve chosen seven villages to compare how they look - then and now.
Left: A cow in the Belyayevo-Bogorodskoye village, 1968; Right: A 30-meters-graffiti devoted to the FIFA 2018 championship at the Profsoyuznaya street.
Between 1960-1986, several neighboring villages became the new Konkovo district in the south-west of Moscow (where you will find subway stations Kaluzhskaya, Belyaevo and Konkovo) with its main highway, Profsoyuznaya Street. This is a very beautiful area, where you won’t find industrial territories; instead, there are lots of parks, hills and old churches. It’s a pleasure to walk around Konkovo! In old photos, you can see that while they were building panel houses, cows were still grazing around them.
2. Kozhukhovo
Above: The village of Kozhukhovo in 1951. Below: Alexander Nevsky church in Kozhukhovo.
This is one of the oldest villages in Moscow, which has been known since the 15th century and, since 1923, was included in Moscow. Kozhukhovo in the south-east of the city had its own railway station even in tsarist times, but the log houses remained here until the 1970s, when the area was finally surrounded by concrete buildings.
3. Troparyovo
Above: Wooden houses of the Troparevo village, 1978. Below: Troparevo metro station, 2019.
Troparyovo district in the southwest of the city was built on the site of the village, which became Moscow in 1960. The name came from its first ruler, boyar (a noble) Ivan Tropar (the word ‘tropar’ means a religious song in a church), who was buried here in 1393. During the Soviet years, there was a big kolkhoz (collective farm) with good transport connection, a school and a store. The last wooden houses were demolished in 1981. And, in 2014, a metro station was opened.
4. Chertanovo
Above: Chertanovo airfield, mid-1960. Below: A park in Chertanovo, 2010.
The former village of Chertanovo in the south of Moscow became its part in 1960. Besides a kolkhoz and other agricultural areas, in the 1940s-1960s, there was an airfield where you could learn to fly a glider. Then the village began to be built up with panel houses and the northern part of Chertanovo was even designed as a model neighborhood and considered a “Soviet paradise”, which could be shown to guests of the 1980 Olympic Games. (Read more about that here )
5. Cherkizovo
Above: Old houses in Cherkizovo, 1964. Below: Bolshaya Cherkizovskaya street, 2009.
The old village of Cherkizovo-Podmoskovnye in the east of Moscow became part of the city in the early 20th century, but, until the 1970s, it still resembled a village with its wooden houses and gardens. Now, Cherkizovo is included in the Preobrazhenskoe District and the village’s name remains in the names of several streets and subway stations. You will also find the preserved Church of Elijah the Prophet, built in 1690.
6. Cheryomushki
Above: The village of Cheryomushki, 1954. Below: A new house in Cheryomushki, built on the place of old panel houses, 2020.
In 1956-1959, the village of Cheryomushki in the south-west of Moscow was the area of the first housing development made up of ‘Khrushchyovkas’ buildings. It became a part of Moscow in 1958. The experimental site consisted of 13 four-storey and seven eight-storey buildings. The pilot apartments were tiny, but facades were decorated with brick, the courtyards had real fountains and pergolas for plants and the development had its own stores, canteens and even a cinema. (read more about it here )
Today many old ‘Khrushchyovkas’ in this district are replaced with new multi-storey buildings with big apartments and modern infrastructure.
7. Kuryanovo
Left: Kuryanovo in 1967. Right: Kuryanovo railway station.
If you wondered where the time stopped in Moscow, it’s in the village of Kuryanovo (in the southeast) that has been part of the city since 1960. Kuryanovo is bordered from the city by the railways and going there is like taking a little trip to the Soviet past. In this area, most residential buildings are still two-storeyed with many gardens in the backyards. And here’s a big Lenin’s monument in the center of the district. Locals like their neighborhood for its authenticity.
Left: A postman talks with locals in the village of Vykhino, 1944. Right: A pond in the Vykhino-Zhulebino district.
In 1960, the village of Vykhino in southeastern Moscow joined the city. The old settlement, together with the Lenin collective farm, was demolished and residents were moved from their log huts to modern panel houses. Today, Vykhino is one of the largest districts of Moscow, where more than 220,000 people live.
9. Kommunarka
Above: Dairy farm of the Kommunarka sovkhoz, 1968. Below: New residential area.
One of the main districts of so-called ‘New Moscow’ became the settelment of Kommunarka in 2012. In Soviet times, there was a large sovkhoz, which fell into disrepair with the collapse of the USSR. Today, the main street of the area is named after the last sovkhoz head, Alexandra Monakhova. The district it is very actively built up - in a few years, here appeared about hundred new houses. A subway station opened there in 2019.
10. Vatutinki
Left: A house with the stove heating in Vatutinki, 1965. Right: A sports park and the new houses, 2020.
Vatutinki is another ‘New Moscow’ settlement, which joined Moscow in 2012. It’s as much as 17 kilometers to the MKAD (Moscow Ring Road). Before 2012, Vatutinki was the home to about 10,000 people and today, there are about 35,000 inhabitants. The population is constantly growing, moving into new houses.
A little blue house found itself on the grounds of a new housing development in the Moscow Region.
The owners of these old wooden houses refused to sell when real estate developers moved in. Take a look at the last villages surrounded by concrete giants.

Text description provided by the architects. The official grand opening of a special school, Letovo School , took place in Moscow last September. The assignment entailed a 20 hectare schoolcampus with educational facilities, student housing and school staff housing. The school campus offers extended outdoor sports facilities with a soccer stade, a running track, tennis courts and basketball courts. In addition there is a greenhouse, a treeyard and ample space for wandering and relaxation in the green.
While the architecture and interior of the school were designed by atelier PRO, the landscape design was developed by Buro Sant en Co landscape architecture. Russian firm Atrium Architectural Studio was responsible for the technical execution. In 2014 Atelier PRO had won the international design competition, the construction began mid-2016 and the campus was taken into use by mid-2018.
Letovo, a dream come true Letovo School is a special school for gifted and motivated children aged 12 to 17. The idea to create the school came from entrepreneur and philanthropist Vadim Moshkovich: ‘My dream was to offer talented children from all over the country access to high-quality education, regardless of their parents’ financial means. This school makes it possible for them to continue their studies at the 10 best universities in the country or at one of the top 50 universities in the world.’
Landscape-inspired design and shape Located in Novaya Moskva,southwest of Moscow ,the campus sits atop a beautiful plot of land that slopes down to a forest-lined river. Distinctive level variations were applied in and around the school to integrate the architecture into the landscape.
The shape of the large complex brings it down to a human scale for the children: the building appears to dance across the landscape due to its dynamic design. Due to the perspective effect one only ever sees part of the building's full size when walking around, which gives the impression of a refined scale. The building’s contours and flowing curves create surprising indoor and outdoor spaces as well.
The heart of the school: the central hub The central hub is the place where day-to-day life at the school unfolds. This flexible, transformable space will be used throughout the day as an informal meeting place. The dance studio on the ground floor can be transformed through a few simple adjustments into a theatre with a stage, a cosy living room or an auditorium that can accommodate 1,000 people for special events such as graduation ceremonies and large celebrations, as seen at the grand opening. This central hub connects the building’s three wings: the art wing, the south wing with science- and general-use rooms and the sports wing
Learning environment with a diversity in working spaces Letovo envisioned an innovative and modern take on existing education in Russia. In the spatial design, this perspective translates into space for theoretical education as well as special areas for group work and independent study in the tapered building wings. In the library wing there are silence spaces workshop spaces and a debating room. These are all supportive to the student’s personal development.
Sports programme In addition to the extended sports outdoor facilities, the indoor supply of sports facilities is substantial. These cover fitness rooms, martial arts rooms, a swimming pool, a small and a large sports hall. Around the sports hall there’s an indoor running track which can be used throughout the year. It is available to school staff and external users as well.
The interior, also designed by atelier PRO, is tailored to the aims of the ambitious programme. The design of the interior also focuses extensively on the various spaces where students can go to chill and meet up with friends. The extreme cold in this area makes the school’s indoor atmosphere important for relaxation.
Ambitous learning environment The Russian client has established a private, non-profit school which aims to be the most prestigious school in the country and to offer the best educational programme through a Russion and an IB (International Baccalaureate) curriculum. Students’ personal development is paramount, with the school adopting a holistic approach. It is a true learning environment that provides scope for a range of disciplines, areas of interest and recreational opportunities to foster children’s development. This aim is supported by the campus facilities and functions.

I had called World Tour Store before and called them again yesterday, and could not get a price that was agreeable and left it. Today Priyanka who I had dealt with, called to offer a good price. Other agents did not but she did. I immediately gave the offer to my friend who has since accepted it. I have also bought a separate route for me. It was at a good price in business class and according to what we wanted. Priyanka thank you for a best service, a considerate and a patient person. I have passed your details to my friend in Sweden and another in the UK. Thank you World Tour Store wonderful staff.

Exemplary service World Tour Store
I had called World Tour Store before and called them again yesterday, and could not get a price that was agreeable and left it. Today Priyanka who I had dealt with, called to offer a good price. Other agents did not but she did. I immediately gave the offer to my friend who has since accepted it. I have also bought a separate route for me. It was at a good price in business class and according to what we wanted. Priyanka thank you for a best service, a considerate and a patient person. I have passed your details to my friend in Sweden and another in the UK. Thank you World Tour Store wonderful staff.

DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE
DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE. FRAUD This company is not legit. Before I booked I phoned them and asked if you enter your card number is your booking confirmed. I was told yes. Booked return flights. 5 mins later I took a phone call saying they needed more money. £300. I said no. They said I had to pay as the outbound flight was confirmed but needed more money to get me home. I said to cancel the booking. They said they couldn’t as outbound was confirmed. This call lasted over an hour. Contacted bank. It was fraud. Was harassed on phone by World Tour Store all night. This only stopped when I told them they were being investigated for fraud. To reiterate this company is not legit. Bank has advised they keep you on phone so they can take more money when they are on the phone to you…ie you can’t phone bank as they are on phone preventing you phone.

Price Scam Tales ARE True
Price Scam Tales ARE True, After going through the whole booking process online, I had an email saying the booking was "in process". I had a phone call form an agent in five minutes, she said she would see what the problem was, after another five minutes on hold she says somebody else had bought the ticket, and gave me a price about 20% higher. I would also need to pay for carry on luggage which was in the original price. I've had another call from them making a new offer, I'm not convinced by their methods. I hadn't looked at trust pilot but I'm glad I have now. Not risking my money with them!!

We hope you will understand that Flight booking is a dynamic process done globally on millions of website at the same time, it happens quite often in the online booking process that by the time you have selected the flight and the time you enter the payment details the same flight/price or any one leg of the journey is sold out/waitlisted and the system automatically puts the booking under process and your CARD IS NOT CHARGED and NO CARD DETAILS ARE STORED BY THE SYSTEM. The fare which is displayed in the system won’t last it gets certain time to be updated with the availability as the live fare which is displayed are dynamic in nature and get changed instantly based on availability. As to make the process ease and in order to hold and confirm the required amount of seats we do ask our passengers to make the payments at the earliest and we do inform the live fare to our customers. Before issuing the E-Tickets and crediting the money our team does call back to assist and with the best available fares and prices and help to complete the booking. We do explain and double check the travelling details with our customers and after their confirmation through via mail we start the process to the issuance from our side, and once the tickets are issued we do mail and inform them with the same. you may refer to our positive reviews as well where it proves that we have served our customers to the best of our ability. You may always call us at 02039704141 for your flight, hotel and holiday bookings and we can guarantee you to offer the best price available.

Very negative and stressful experience…
Very negative and stressful experience with World Tour Store. I booked a flight online on their website and made the payment. They make you hurry to make the payment within 5 to 10 mins. After 2 days of payment , there is still no ticket issued. They keep calling and give excuses like extra baggage, even though baggage was mentioned in the ticket, waitlisted legs, dynamic tickets, however the same price was available on their website since 5 days and the booking was also done within the timeframe mentioned on their site. Very shady practices.
