Crystal Cruises – the perfect choice!
Voted “World’s Best” 18 years running by Conde Nast readers and they are certainly not wrong!
A short break was just what the doctor ordered – we boarded Crystal Serenity in Barcelona and spent 6 glorious nights on board this fabulous ship. The staff were attentive and discreet, nothing was too much trouble the food was fantastic with no less than five dining options. We had overnight in port in both Barcelona and Monte Carlo, a full day in Livorno where we hopped on the train to delightful Florence and finished up exploring Rome before we flew home. A wonderful short break, great value for money at the very top end of the cruise market .. but beware once you have done it you will be hooked!
Top tip ask about meet and greet service at London Heathrow, not much more than standard parking prices and a lot less hassle!

Dear Stephanie,
We just want to say a massive thank you for arranging our holiday to Las Vegas and Florida for us. This was the first time we’d been on a twin centre holiday (and definitely won’t be the last!) and not only did you find us the best deal you also made it really hassle free for us. We were a bit apprehensive about keeping track of all of our flights and booking details but the itinerary pack you gave us before we went away was excellent at keeping us in order.
Las Vegas was absolutely brilliant! We had a wonderful 4 nights at the MGM Grand. Our room in the West Wing of the hotel was perfect – large, modern and comfortable – and the hotel’s location at the top of the main strip was ideal for exploring (there is so much to see!).
Thanks also for recommending Clearwater Beach in Florida to us. It was exactly what we’d asked for – a chill out retreat after our busy few days in Vegas. The service at The Hilton was great and its location right on the sandy white beach front was just stunning. The atmosphere in Clearwater was very relaxed and there were more than enough bars and restaurants to keep us entertained for a week (all very reasonably priced too).
The hire car and sat nav you arranged for us in Florida was great – we needed it! We decided to upgrade to a convertible Mustang when we arrived which was so much fun.
All in all we had a wonderful holiday and really appreciate the recommendations you made to us.
See you when we start planning our next holiday!
Best wishes,
Gayle and Kev

Hello Helen,
My apologies for not contacting you sooner. It is amazing how much work is waiting for you when you get back from holiday.
Our holiday in America was fantastic. There were no problems with any of the hotels, flights or car hire. The hotels were of very good quality and the kids enjoyed the swimming pools.
We enjoyed every place we stayed on our little tour. We were not disappointed with anything – it was a great holiday from start to finish. The people we met were friendly and very helpful.
Thank you very much for your help in organising such a great holiday.
I will be more than willing to give any feedback to anyone else considering a similar holiday.
Thanks and best wishes.
Brian

Dear Paul
Sorry for not emailing sooner but wanted to let you know that SJ and I had just the best time in Paleokastritsa.
It was just what we were looking for. The accommodation was clean and perfectly suited to our needs. The only criticism I would have is that it is not air conditioned but other than that it was great and we had a fabulous view from our balcony.
We felt that we were the right end of Paleo as the restaurants were a bit cheaper. We went to the Acapulco swimming pool and bar every day and ate most nights at Spiros. The food was great, everywhere we went the people were really friendly and we nearly stayed within our budget which has amazed everyone we know.
Will definitely be going back.
We will be seeing you again no doubt and I hope you enjoyed your holiday in Corfu too.
Best regards and thanks again

Dear Chantal
We had a lovely holiday.
Your suggestion of going with Atlantic Holidays was spot on.
We couldn't fault anything. The hotel was perfect, as was the food, the rep and the trips we went on. So was the weather.
Thank you for all your help,
Yours sincerely
