Verandah Baie Hotel - Mauritius
Hi Laura
Mauritius was great, the hotel was very nice with friendly and helpful staff and perfectly situated so that we could explore around the area if we wanted to. Had a really good time. Would love to go back again.
Thanks for organising.

Review of Egyptian tour
Hi Lindsay
Happy New Year to you!
Thank you for arranging the most fabulous trip to Egypt for us - we all thoroughly enjoyed it, and your operators in Egypt - were superb - punctual, caring, excellent transport and great guides.
The Nile cruise was fabulous, and I am so pleased we went down to Abu Simbel - incredible!
All in all, we found the sights awesome, the people friendly and amusing, and the weather great! - nothing can prepare one for Cairo's traffic though! - where the only rule is that there are no rules!!
The Steigenberger in Luxor was really very luxurious, with great facilities and position, the Basma in Aswan was fine - a bit of faded glory! - and the Flamenco in Cairo was clean, comfortable and perfect for a few days in the city- we didn't spend much time there. The Presidential Cruiser line is great - excellent food and service, and good cabins.
All in all, we really had a fascinating and interesting holiday, and felt that with all that was included, the trip definitely was value for money.
Oh yes - Air Afriqiyah was fine - they flew us Business class from Cairo to Tripoli, but then our bags didn't make the connection ---however, they were delivered to us last night, so it all ended well!
Look forward to a coffee some time.
Thanks again for all your hard work on our behalf!!

Arabian Nights - Zanzibar
Hi Laura
We got back yesterday.
It was a fantastic trip, really wonderful, and the ground operators provided excellent service they were on time and very helpful and polite. Arabian Nights is also a great place to stay I think the best place to be based from in Paje. It was central, quiet, but close to the party spots and closest to the beach. The rooms were beautiful and service was excellent.
Unfortunately Zanzibar had been without electricity for three weeks when we arrived, but at least the hotel had a generator which they brought up in the evenings so we could sleep comfortably and shower, etc.
Thanks for everything you arranged and kind regards

Hi Laura
What a wonderful holiday. The flight there was fantastic. We were met by
Mauritours and they were so helpful and friendly. The greeting at the hotel
was so warming. Laura the hotel is out of this world, I can see that there
are much more top class hotels, but this small enough to know every one and
is more personal. Maureen from Mauritours met me on the first morning and
we booked a few tours which was nice to have a bit of direction. Christmas
and New Years Eve were spectacular. The beaches are as they are in the
pictures. As you can see I even para-sailed!! The shopping was more than I
expected. We had to buy more bags. It was a holiday that certainly helped heal
our hearts and was so good to re-group as a family unit again. So thank you.
Kindest regards

THAILAND, SUNSET BEACH HOTEL & SINGAPORE, COPTHORNE ORCHID HOTEL.
Hi Laura
Thailand was amazing, thank you for all your help
Sunset Beach Hotel is beautiful, the other one is shocking though (3* COPTHORNE ORCHID), very disappointed with it, and also the flight time made it rather tiring, perhaps we should have stayed 2 nights and then left the hotel at about 12 in the evening, cos we had to bum around the airport for HOURS! other than that i loved it, cant wait to go back!!!

THAILAND - SUNSET BEACH HOTEL & SINGAPORE - COPTHORNE ORCHID HOTEL
Hi Laura
Thanks very much, we really enjoyed it, hotel was lovely in phuket, the one in Singapore (Copthorne Orchid) was not so nice, dirty and smelt of damp, and very far from all the main attractions.
Overall it was great. Thanks so much for everything. Looking at Greece mid year, so will call you as soon as we ready to book.
Warm Regards,

THAILAND - SUNSET BEACH HOTEL
Hi Laura,
Oh my Gosh, what a fab time we had. It was great. Better than any holiday I've ever had. We did everything and went everywhere, we hired a scooter so we explored the many different beaches. It was awesome.
I meant to write you sooner to say thank you for the great service and hotel. It was perfect.
I was telling my boyfriend that I would certainly recommend your services to everyone going on holiday.

MAURITIUS - PEARLE BEACH RESORT
Good day Laura
First day back at work. Mauritius was absolutely awesome. The squeaky clean beaches, the friendly people and of course being from SA it was pure bliss to be able to walk around day and night without constantly fearing for ones safety and possessions.
Pearly Beach was most enjoyable. Rooms are clean and very comfortable and the view from the second floor balcony is stunning especially the sunsets. The staff was friendly and helpful and one of the staff members even brought us a Dewali sweets parcel from home (which we finished off in record time). Breakfast and dinner were good. All in all it was very good value for money.
At no point did we have any glitches in our travel arrangements and it was great to sit back and relax with everything being taken care off.
We certainly will go back in the near future (so we will be in touch).
Kind regards,
Jessica Binoir

MAURITIUS - LA PLANTATION RESORT
Hi Laura
Thanks again for all your help. We had a wonderful time and La Plantation lived up to and in many instances exceeded my expectations. It was wonderful. The hotel was 95% full and even with the large number of guests the hotel didnt stint on taking care of us. The all inclusive package was a bonus and well worth it and the hotel had no problems with the system which worked well.
Thanks again Laura it was wonderful.
