What Our Customers Say

Everywhere we went was very good! Darren had a wealth of information to share with us, and he did a great job. Kilian was also a fabulous dude who joined us on a few fun adventures! I really enjoyed having him as part of our tour. This was my second tour with HOT and everyone did a great job!

Amy Ellis Switzerland 2024

Well prepared tour through and through! I was adequately prepared each day of this tour, learned a lot from the local Deaf guide that was with us, and Dan always made sure to add more information afterwards. The amount of time and service put into those challenging countries was very evident - that's excellent customer service.

Anne Danahy Turkey 2024

We learned a lot about UAE's history from Himel and a Deaf local tour guide who was assigned to our tour. Wow, we were very impressed with his expertise in sharing rich information! He was also knowledgeable about everything regarding the Arab country. We felt well-prepared for daily sightseeing places with excitement!

Jeanne Ewald United Arab Emirates 2024

We enjoyed each attraction, and I especially enjoyed the attractions related to WWII. All the accommodations were in great locations, very nice and clean. The breakfasts were always really good. Martin is well versed, not only on what he presented, but the overall history of Japan, as well as the local and national cultures with Chikako. Incredible, friendly, giving and so very helpful. The best!

Craig Hoersten Southern Japan 2024

Million thanks to Darren and Matthias for everything they did to make the outstanding tour memorable! I truly enjoyed the entire tour and am very grateful to experience it with all of you old and new friends! Wonderful times, wonderful memories and wonderful people! Look forward to meeting each of you again.
