⚠️ Travel **** Warning: Global Nomads Tours

I’m posting this as a warning to anyone considering booking a holiday through Global Nomads Tours (https://globalnomadstours.co.za/).

They appear to be offering luxury travel deals — especially to high-end destinations like the Maldives — at prices that seem almost too good to be true. Full holiday packages including international flights, luxury resorts, meals, transfers, and activities are quoted at rates far below the actual cost of just the accommodation when verified directly with the resorts.

At first glance, their website and communication seem polished and professional. But after a closer look and some research, several red flags stand out:

No real flight confirmations are included in their quotes — only vague itineraries without airline booking codes or reference numbers.

The links in their emails sometimes redirect to random or unrelated websites, including third-party travel pages or questionable destinations that may be phishing attempts.

Their website has no verified business registration number, no official travel accreditation (like IATA or ASATA), and no physical address listed — unusual for any company selling international trips.

The few reviews online are suspiciously positive, written just hours apart by accounts with generic names and almost no history — very likely ****.

Worst of all, there is at least one public review from someone who paid a deposit and was then completely ghosted — no trip, no refund, and no response. That alone should be a massive red flag.

It’s likely this company is using a professional-looking front to target people looking for affordable luxury travel, counting on them not verifying the details until it’s too late.

If you’re considering booking with them, don’t. Always confirm travel quotes directly with the resort or airline before sending any money. If the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Stay safe and do your homework. ****mers like this count on people not double-checking
