No matter which website you visit, inevitably you are going to see the claims - We are the best, the biggest, the greatest! How do you decide whom to trust? How do you sort through the "puffing" and get to the facts?
There are a number of factors you should consider when choosing a company to assist you on one of the most important searches of your life. Below we list 10 points or features that differentiate us from the rest.
Before deciding, always conduct some type of independent research of the company; call past tour clients, check their reputation on the web using forums or news groups, ask friends, check with the Better Business Bureau. Be confident that what they are telling you is actually true, and actually what you will receive!

Ability to submit, at no extra charge, a list of women from our site you would like to meet at the Socials
Receipt of the master list of women who will be attending the Socials prior to the Social, so you can focus on the women you are interested in.

one of our friendly American representatives.

EXPERIENCE- A Foreign Affair was the first full-service International Introduction agency on the Internet, since 1995!
Our hard work and dedication to customer service, has earned us an unparalleled reputation for honesty, expertise, and professionalism.
We have assisted thousands of men and women in their search for their special someone, via both group and individual tours.
All the principals of A Foreign Affair, as well as many of their employees, have met and married their foreign wives with the assistance of A Foreign Affair. All are still happily married, with some marriages now over nine years in duration!
BEFORE YOU GO- A Foreign Affair offers the most pre-tour services and assistance in the industry!
All are double rooms with single occupancy - never share a room with another client
All include a very nice breakfast on a daily basis
THE SOCIALS - A Foreign Affair's Socials have earned the reputation of being the best in the industry among both men and the foreign women. We spend more money on our Socials than anyone in the industry - bar none!
Highest ratios of women to men
Private, invitation-only Socials
Different women attending each Social during the tour
Due to jet lag and other considerations, such as our longer tour lengths, and to allow you the best opportunity to follow up with all contacts, all European socials are held every other day, as opposed to back-to-back-to-back
Fully catered with superb food, champagne, soft drinks, etc. You are never asked to purchase food or drink for women during a Social as do virtually all other companies
Excellent environment, normally Grand Ballrooms, or private Entertainment Complexes, conducive to meeting as many women as possible, while treating the women with the utmost respect and dignity
You assist in the selection of the women attending the Socials
You receive a master list of the women who have been personally called twice and confirmed for the Social.
Every woman is screened and checked in at the door
You are never forced to move or talk to women you are not interested in. You are encouraged to speak to as many different women as possible, as most men will eventually marry someone they never wrote to or invited to the socials.
HOSPITALITY SERVICE- A Foreign Affair is the only company to operate full time offices in all of its tour cities, normally right in your hotel, providing you with a much higher standard of service during your tour!
Full-service hospitality room open from 9 am to 8 pm, with special staff to cater to all of your needs
Customized hard copy profile books of all available women in that area
Staff that will call and set up as many dates as you like, just submit a list and schedule and let them fill it for you!
Free translation assistance, message-taking and, in many cases, Internet/E-mail use
Excellent logistical support: reservations, tickets, anything you need, our staff will assist you in obtaining it!
NEW APPLICANT INTERVIEWS(most destinations) - A Foreign Affair is the only company that allows you to meet women while they are joining the service - separate from the Socials
Opportunity to meet women who are just beginning the process of finding their special someone
PROFESSIONAL INTERPRETERS - A Foreign Affair only employs highly qualified, professional interpreters to assist you during your tour (keep in mind that many of the women can and do speak English!)
Free interpreter service during the Socials as well as in the hospitality room
Meet all the interpreters at the Interpreter Meeting hosted the first night
Choose one interpreter to be your private, personal interpreter, or use multiple interpreters (we always recommend using at least two interpreters for a more objective picture, but it's your choice)
Many of our interpreters are also certified tour guides
AFTER YOUR TOUR- We are available for on-going advice and support after your tour has finished, from both the tour-city office and our corporate US-based office.
Due to our fully staffed offices you can extend your stay after the tour leaves, or re-visit the city on your own, and still have the same great support that you enjoyed while the tour was there.
Free on-going advice regarding any issue: Fiancee Visas, return trips, relationship concerns etc., etc.
