We took OAT's Red Sea trip in December 2008, feeling confident because we had traveled with them many times before. This trip was a horrible disappointment. The hotels were mostly 2nd rate (one was absolutely nasty), the trip into Saudi Arabia was a waste of time and money (there was essentially nothing to see with a horrible guide and a filthy raddle-trap bus driven at break-neck speeds), the trip and OAT's description of the trip varied considerably (many broken promises), and they seemed more intent in offering "optional expense items" rather than delivering the promised product. Even their free gifts to the travelers were nothing but defective cheap Chinese products. Dealing with their home office was a nightmare; employees who do not know what they are doing, providing wrong information.
They used to be a good company; but no longer. AVOID this trip!
