What my customers say

We’re finally back after our epic trip/holiday so thanks for all you did in the organisation and planning of it, there’s no way we could’ve done all that ourselves with the co-ordination of all of us involved, my mum and sister. By the way Sri Lanka was fantastic to visit can’t believe us Brits havent fully discovered it as it’s right up our street so anyone who asks tell them it’s worth it. Anyway we’ll definitely be calling you again for whatever we do next time and will recommend you to our friends as well. Thanks

Gill always goes above and beyond from the initial request to booking and during holiday and after care. With Gill I always feel reassured and have recommended Gill to all my family and friends xx Gill goes the extra mile and tops all other travel agents with her personal and caring help.

Gillian is extremely professional and most pleasant to deal with. We asked her to arrange our holiday to Barbados this year and it could not have gone smoother. Gill arranged the flights well beforehand and sorted out the seats and the special assistance at Manchester airport. She has been available every step of the way answering any queries we may have had. We had requested a particular type of accommodation at the South Gap Hotel in St Lawrence and as she knew we were getting married, had a bottle prosecco waiting for us for the wedding day. We can’t thank Gill enough for her efforts in making our holiday special and to that end we have re-booked with her again for 2025. If you are looking for a capable, professional and wonderful person to arrange your holiday Gill Murray is the one to go to.

Without hesitation, I would recommend Gillian Murray my Travel Counsellor to anyone thinking of booking a holiday. I feel the attention you get from her is personal and the information and advice on holidays is very detailed and reliable due to the long experience she and her colleagues have had in the industry .She will get in touch with hotels and find out details that high street and online travel agents never would which can make the difference between hoping a holiday will be a success and knowing it will.Nothing is too much trouble for Gill and I wouldn’t dream of using any other Travel Agent Pat Smith

If I was looking to book any type of holiday my first port of call ( pardon the pun) would be Gill. In my experience Gill goes the extra mile to put together a package that suits you in every way. Her after sales service is excellent too, many travel agents can be less than nterested once the holiday has been sold.

I can't fault Gill's customer service. She is pleasant to deal with and goes the extra mile to ensure your holiday is everything you want it to be.

We have just returned from a holiday arranged by Gill. Pre cruise stay in Dubai then cruise around the UAE. Excellent hotel, all transfers spot on and fab cruise. Gill took on board all our requirements and it all went very smoothly. Loved it - thanks Gill
