Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful
Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful service. We were unsure of where we wanted to go. Through some pertinent questions we had our holiday sorted to a destination we’d considered but never been, the type of hotel we like and all flying from our local airport. Excellent service. Local knowledge and experience of some of the places we considered, but had never been ourselves, also helped.
