    What matters is the OFFICIAL rating. A tour operators rating is purely their opinion. Would you want to book a holiday based on a Tour Operators rating of 4 star, only to find when you get there it is officially a 3 star? No.
    When the Official rating is higher than a Tour Operators rating it matters.

    For your information I have been an agent for 21 years.....and you?
