Ultimate Fares is an up and coming travel website that offers all the traditional bookings like air, hotel, car and cruise. It’s most specific booking options is in the car rental options, which includes transmission type and the option to pick–up and drop–off the rental at different locations. Ultimate Fares also includes bookings for guided tours around the world.

The tours are guided trips and fully planed itineraries to places like Asia, Alaska, Europe, the United States and more. This is one of Ultimate Fare’s most unique features.

They do offer last minute deals if you have a flexible schedule and can take off at the last moment. Bookings include national and international flights to all destinations with all major carriers. You have the option to get frequent flyer miles with all flights.

The show tickets selection includes shows, events, attractions, local tours and dining. This is a great place to start if you don’t know where to go or what to do on your vacation.

We encountered mixed results with customer service. Our first email was answered in a matter of hours; however, our follow–up questions were not responded to.

Unfortunately, Ultimate Fares has few additional features. They do not have low fare guarantee or offer travel insurance. Although Ultimate Fares has a selection of destination guides, we would have liked the website to include travel news and security information, weather reports, international travel information and the ability to check flight status.

Ultimate Fares charges $19 dollars to issue a paper ticket. This covers the cost of two–day ground delivery services.
