“We know First Group as an excellent company with a...”

Rainhard P.
4/16/21

We know First Group as an excellent company with a lot of interesting developments in various places in Dubai. At the moment - with pandemic all over the world - times are very challenging. Nevertheless they achieved also during these times a really solid revenue. Customer Service, especially Ms. Doa, does a perfect job in communicating with us and giving support for any questions. Therefore five stars over all are undoubtedly justified!

We learnt a lot about the different investment opportunities and family holiday packages. The presentation by Innocent was amazing. You could actually own a holiday home for 30 years with minimum contributions. You could also own property in Dubai if you can afford it and make money from it

Reason I chose this business:

Referred from the airport

We checked in for a weekend and left very satisfied with very good memories. The hotel was suggested to us by some friends who stayed here before and were satisfied too. The rooms were super clean, the view was super and I got a cake for my birthday too. Would like to thank the team for their hard work mainly Nour because she extended extra care to us attention and compassion during the whole stay, we felt precious and this was definitely something. Thank you again for all

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have been to Dubai invited by the The First Group and that was an experience tour and was also our wedding anniversary. We paid for the package again to come to Dubai this year to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary again in Dubai which will be on the 17th March. As you can see the membership will expire on the 16th march we are asking for extension for extra 2 days.

Reason I chose this business:

I and my lovely wife because we are coming to Dubai for our Wedding Anniversary we are looking for more experience and enjoy our wedding anniversary to the fullest to go to all the excursions and most important to burj khalifa and sightseeing around Dubai.

It was a great experience for my family and I at your first group office. Ahmed and the whole team did a fantastic job. They kept to every of their promises. I initially thought it was just a marketing promises to get customers until our expo 2020 visit with the voucher from first group, the free train tickets and finally a dinner at MasterChef. I lack word to express my feelings but my family and I were blown away. It was an el Dorado of some sort. Looking forward to doing more business with you.
Thank you so much.

My good experience was however marred by the refusal to drop me back at the hotel i had been picked if it wasn't for the intervention on someone at reception. They wanted to drop me at a metro station and i had neither a ticket for the Metro nor a visa card to pay for a taxi.

I also felt pushed to the limit to invest yet I was a first time visitor to Dubai, who wanted to enjoy my 60th birthday in Dubai

Reason I chose this business:

I didnt choose, was approached as I entered a Shopping Mall

After making an initial enquiry, we were taken to TFG's office and met with Said Abodouni, who was very courteous and helpful. He took us to see Hotel CIEL at Dubai Marina, which is nearly complete and treated us to a boat trip round the Marina. The following day, Said took us for lunch and a visit to the Miracle Gardens - all very pleasant indeed! Back at the TFG office, we completed two transactions, one for CIEL Marine Tower and another for The First Collection, Dubai Sports City. We consider these to be favourable medium to longer-term investments and may well add additional assets at a future date. Said and Tereza were very professional, efficient and helpful!

Met the First Group at a promotional event, and was invited to a tour of their office and properties.

Great treatment, and some very exciting investment opportunities in the impressive Dubai skyline. They have plenty of great options, and were extremely cohesive and passionate about explaining them!

Good experience, will consider working with them in future

My contact person, Fauzia, was very helpful and accommodative especially when lockdowns all over the world resumed. They allowed me ample time to complete my payment. She also responded well and promptly to any issues I raised. Looking forward to an amazing holiday with the First Group. I must add it'll be my second holiday with them. Absolutely loved the first one that's why I booked again this time.

Investing remotely is not an easy decision or task. That's what I did with TFG. When I ask for help, no matter what, Yacine and Aymen answer all my questions. I have never been so comfortable and well-treated because I feel so good. I will visit you at the end of the year to enjoy my stay in Dubai.
