What our clients say about Kind + Jugend

good price, efficient and fast answers

- mayte sanchez

Fair Point is a very good company to work with. The hotel which they offered us was very good and so close to the fair! We will recommend them to other companies.

- A. Kalinowska

I was very happy with the service you provided. It was perfect for me as I didn't know the area and couldn't speak German. The hotel you found for me was in a perfect location and I didn't have to spend money on taxis or additional transport. I'm not sure I will be travelling to the overseas show next year but if I do I will definitely use you again!
