“We arrived, tired and apprehensive – wary of what we were doing.  Within days, things were moving – housing was being found and negotiated; cars were ordered; driving licenses applied for; school places confirmed.  It was all made so simple.  Kids were happy – so we were happy”

"The assistance received from the dedicated Echo-Xpats representative from the first day of arrival in Dubai eased our mind in a busy period of  uncertainties experienced by all family members in connection with a relocation to an unfamiliar environment. We all benefited greatly from this "One-Stop-Shop" where we could have questions clarified and get support. Definitely value for money”

“Having to search for and find suitable long-term accommodation in Dubai while simultaneously starting business operations, Echo-Xpats provided excellent advice and support through search, selection and negotiations. The service provided was at all times of the highest standard and extremely professional. This transformed what otherwise could have been a difficult and drawn out process for me into a relatively simple task. Basically, I just focused on business while Echo-Xpats took care of finding me a place to stay. In addition, through my interactions with Nick Digby I found that I could by-passed a lengthy learning curve on Dubai by tapping into his seemingly endless database on everything from traffic patterns through the City, fun places to take my family, doing business in Dubai, even to finding best places to eat.”

Nick Paxinos

“They were EXTREMELY helpful in getting me settled in all aspects outside my work (including housing, car, driving license, etc...) Nick was always there ready for assistance and for dispensing advice on most Dubai-related matters. My settling-in experience in Dubai would have been excruciatingly painful had it not been for Echo-Xpats. I would grade them at A+ and would strongly recommend them.”

"Nick and Echo assisted us with our relocation from the UK over the summer of 2007.  We found the service to be thorough, friendly, and very good value, from the successful renting of our wonderful villa in Al Barsha to the quiet acceptance of our daughter's vomiting in the back of Nick's car on the way from the airport.  Nick helped us with accomodation, furnishing, utilities connection, buying a car, and getting our liquor licence - no request was too much trouble.  The personal touch shown by Echo was highly appreciated and we still rely on his restaurant and bar recommendations!

Nigel Thompson

"We believe that Echo-Xpats has made a huge difference in providing us with the right information and availability when we moved to Dubai.

Our relocation consultant helped us with important issues like choosing the right schools for our children and registering them even before we arrived, providing us with the right information about housing costs and contracts, and providing service details as picking us up at the airport at midnight and always having availability for our phone calls and
appointments.

Dubai leaves almost no time for reflection, so having someone to help us protect or review our choices was a much easier way to move here.

Few times can we say we have felt like being the only customer a company has got. Due to the great effort and results we have had from Echo-Xpats, this was definitely one of those times."
