We had clients recently travel to Gibraltar, this is what they had to say – “Morning Paul,We just wanted to pass on our huge thanks for organising a stay at the Sunborn in Gibraltar. From arriving at the airport right through to departure the trip was fantastic. We were allocated a deluxe room on the 6th floor which was perfectly presented with a good view of The Rock and marina, however we upgraded to the ocean suite which was, to us, out of this world and truly made our stay extra special. The suite was enormous, 2 bathrooms, hallway, lounge, and a big bedroom with a ship themed door out onto its very own sun terrace. The sun terrace had a separate sitting area and sun beds. From the sun terrace the views were panoramic out to the sea, marina, airport runway and The Rock itself. Staff were very helpful. We ate on the Sunborn once in the evening and the food was sublime. Granted it was room service but still spot on time and beautifully presented. Breakfast was buffet style and had everything you wanted to set yourself up for the day. The Sunborn is in a great location, right on the edge of the Ocean village, so lots of eateries and bars on your doorstep. Casement Square is a 5-minute walk and again with a variety of eateries and bars. The square itself leads you onto the Main Street. At the end of the Main Street is the cable car station up to The Rock. It felt very British with the shops, bars, language, and currency. Best wishes from both Karen and I and again our thanks for pulling another fantastic holiday out of the bag for us! “

“Hi Paul 

Just a quick email to let you know La Flora was perfect! Gorgeous hotel, staff were amazing couldn’t fault anything really. 

We listened to you too so now we are staying at Katathani beach resort in Phuket which is also very nice. 

Thanks for organising everything we’ve had the best holiday so far! Seen elephants, tigers, monkeys, temples, James bond island, Thai cooking, night markets and now going to Phi Phi today too. It’s all been fabulous! Just what we both needed! 

Thanks again

“Good Morning Paul, We have just returned from the latest travel you organised for us to Oman and I am writing to thank you for your excellent choice of location and hotel as ever. However on this occasion, I believe you have even excelled yourself and the normal high expectations we have of your recommendations, as the hotel in Muscat, Oman is an exceptional property. Whenever we leave our travels in your capable hands we know the care and individual attention we will receive and feel totally secure in the knowledge that all aspects of travel will be covered and monitored with our interests and enjoyment at the heart of your arrangements. Your extensive knowledge of locations. and experiences across the world and the contacts you have made for the uniqueness of travel are well known and the recommendation for Oman and this hotel proved it beyond doubt as not only was the country a magical place to visit but the hotel recommendation was an absolute gem where service, food variety and quality and the genuine care all staff demonstrated towards the needs of the individual were outstanding. Thank you so much for making travel such a pleasure and showing such a personal interest in the arrangements, however on this occasion our appreciation needs to be recorded and not just taken for granted, hence this letter, Thank you Geoff and Lyn”

Hi Paul,

I have recently returned from a cruise on the Veendam, and wanted to thank you for arranging it all for me.  I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the holiday.
I wanted to tell you how impressed I was with the hotel Atlis Belem in Lisbon.  Very modern, lovely rooms, excellent breakfast, and a terrific location.  Highly recommend. We actually ate out at local restaurants, but what we had we thoroughly enjoyed. Great place to stay before a cruise.
I would also like to mention the great service we received from Holiday Taxis, comfortable car and a very attentive driver.
In all a most enjoyable and problem free holiday.
Regards Janet

“I was recently invited to visit the Luxury properties of the Elounda Group in Elounda, Crete.The three beach front properties are very different catering for both families and couples along with a Relais & Chateaux section.The gentle bays with clear blue waters offer great safe bathing along with good opportunities for snorkeling and other water sports. There are 7 restaurants to choose from offering wonderful seafood and fine dining.The complex has accommodation to suit everyone some with private pools which are excellent for families and couple alike.The complex is just 5 mins from the village of Elounda, 8 mins from Plakia and 16 mins from Aghios Nickoloas where you can wander around the local streets which have wonderful seafront restaurants – all still at very good prices and of course with wonderful sea views.. (Average starter 4/5 euro and main course 10/ 15 euro) From here you can also pay a visit to the island of Splinilonga which was a former leper colony, however today a popular tourist attraction.
Crete has so much to offer! Give me a call if you fancy a visit and I’ll find the holiday to suit you and your wallet.01937 845678

“I have just returned from the most amazing trip the wonderful Sultanate Of Oman, flying direct to Muscat with Oman Air – A great service in both Economy and Business class.
Rated as the 4th safest country in the world and you soon get the feeling that this is totally true.

The country has so much to offer, with the variation of beaches, mountains, deserts, forts, Wadis, & Souk’s …
So many things to offer for a totally unique holiday.

I visited the Muscat area seeing various hotels and places of local interest then into the mountains for breath-taking views

In the cool mountains the villages haven’t changed in decades.
I saw beautiful beaches where I witnessed Green Turtles actually laying their eggs – the most amazing experience at the Ras Al Jinz …
The Turtle reserve is such a worthy cause and protects these wonderful mammals for their continued future.

The Anantara at Jabal AL Akhdar Hotel in the mountains has mountain biking, hiking, rock climbing the ferrata’s. So many activities to engage in.

So if Oman is of any interest to you please give me a call on 01937 845678 or email me for prices for your perfect holiday.

“Hi Paul. I was going to drop you a few lines as a matter of courtesy.The trip was a complete success.The hotel was everything we could have hoped for and having walked the beach and seen the ones further along ours was the quietest and much more suited to our needs.
One thing I would mention was when we met the Red Sea Holidays Rep, he was very impressed with your booklet containing e ticket etc. He was drooling over the way it was all set up. I knew no better, but you must be getting that right!.
So, thank you for all your help and advice. Mandy is already talking about the next one!”
