My customer stories

After initial enquiry regarding a weekend away in Chester, Mark provided us plenty of exciting and varied options. After consideration and back-to-back interaction, we booked a beautiful Hilton hotel just off the city of Chester. The booking process was flawless, providing personal details and payment (which was taken securely). Mark made it very clear to get in contact, through various methods, if we were to struggle or have any questions throughout the process. The day before our getaway, Mark re-sent all booking confirmations and details to make sure we had all the relevant information. Then, on arrival, no questions were asked and we got booked straight into the stunning resort. I will definitely be booking with Mark for any future getaways.

So pleased with my booking through Mark to Lake Como next year. The process was so easy and he was thorough in telling me everything I needed to know. He sent a variety of options which were all good value and a selection of flights at different times of the day. Travel counsellors are ATOL protected so important to know there is financial protection. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again to book future holidays. Thanks Mark!

Los Angeles & Vibrant Vegas

11 January 2021

I had always been intrigued by the glamour of Los Angeles and the bright lights of Las Vegas. I am pairing these together as they offer a fantastic two-centre option for those looking to combine both in the same trip. First, let's jet off to the city of angels! There are many areas within Los Angeles and they all offer a different vibe. You have the beautiful coastline and golden sands of Venice

The lush, green gem of the Far East

09 December 2020

Welcome aboard this trip to Malaysia. I visited this beautiful country quite a few years ago and would absolutely love to return to this lush, green paradise. Malaysia was in fact the very first long-haul destination that I have visited so at the time I remember feeling completely blinkered and open minded to what I was about to see and do whilst on this trip. I would say Malaysia was the beginnin

Pearls of the Indian Ocean

09 December 2020

I have been lucky enough to visit a number of countries and locations across the globe that have had a lasting impact on me and The Maldives are right up there in my top three, what I like to call, 'wow destinations'. I remember the approach to the islands from above having only seen pictures in brochures prior to my visit. I remember thinking to myself "surely they cannot be that stunning and tha

Immerse yourself amongst the serene waterways of the North

09 November 2020

I first learned of Venice when I was a young boy. I'd listen to stories of the majestic palace-like hotels that lined the endless maze of canals. My grandparents visited Venice each year for a number of years and stayed at the same hotel each time without fail. They would return to tell me how the owner of the hotel now reserved the same room for them whenever they called to book and the excitem

Start spreading the news

09 November 2020

I absolutely love the buzz of city life. Being born and raised in south London, I learned to not only live and work amongst the hustle and bustle, but I also learned to enjoy it. For me, there is nothing like the craziness of people darting here and there and car horns beeping from every direction. I love cities at night when the sun goes down and the lights come on. At Christmas time, cities tran
