“I recently completed Umrah with my mother under the guidance of Heritage Umrah/Mayar Travel and I would like to commend the team for their professionalism and exceptional level of care throughout the journey. Our group leader, Amr, demonstrated outstanding organisation and attentiveness from the outset. He provided clear and consistent guidance during the performance of Umrah, ensuring I was supported and fully informed at each stage. When my mother required a wheelchair to complete her Umrah, Amr arranged this with great efficiency and consideration, allowing her to participate comfortably and with dignity. During my time in Makkah, I experienced a period of illness, and Amr provided valuable assistance by accompanying me to the hospital and facilitating my treatment. His calm approach and reliability offered significant reassurance to both me and my mother. The ziyarah visits were also well structured, with ample time allocated for reflection and prayer. Every aspect of the itinerary was managed with care and professionalism, contributing to a smooth and spiritually fulfilling experience. Overall, I found Mayar Travel to be a highly organised and trustworthy company. Amr’s leadership, attention to detail, and commitment to the wellbeing of each pilgrim were evident throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Heritage Umrah to anyone seeking a reliable and supportive service for their pilgrimage.”

“We have booked our last four ski holidays with Get Me To The Alps, and every experience has been outstanding from start to finish. They take all the stress out of planning by handling every detail with professionalism and care. From choosing the perfect resort to arranging accommodation, transfers, and lift passes, they make the entire process so straightforward that booking a ski holiday becomes a pleasure rather than a chore. What really sets them apart is how helpful and responsive they are at every stage. No question is too small, and they’re always quick to provide advice or updates, which gives you complete peace of mind. It’s rare to find a company that combines excellent customer service with such efficiency, but they truly deliver on both. Knowing that everything is organised by one reliable company means we can simply relax and look forward to our trip. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Get Me To The Alps to anyone planning a ski holiday – they make the whole experience seamless and enjoyable every single time.”

“Never fails to disappoint. All home cooked, fresh and good portion sizes. Always a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended.”

“Just the best. Can't fault anything from welcome to departure. We stayed in the Barn which was amazing. Lovely touch of the essential food baket on arrival. Quality decor and furnishings. The rooms were spacious and the hot tub was an added bonus. Alan was on hand if needed (which he wasnt). Location beautiful and totally relaxed on departure. Well worth the trip up from London.”

“We had a lovely stay at the Garden Apartment a few weeks ago. It is beautifully furnished, was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Especially the beds. Having driven up from London with elderly parents it was just what we needed. The owners had very kindly stocked up the fridge and freezer which came in very handy for breakfast next morning. And was truly appreciated. As was the Netflix and music streaming on Alexa. We also noticed plenty of board games and dvds for families with younger children. Would definitely recommend .”

“Friendly,welcoming, very helpful and extremely knowledgeable owner and staff, All your holiday needs sorted with a wonderful personal touch,in one fell swoop. Great well run business.”

“I popped in to enquire about a trip to France a week ago and found the experience just wonderful. The staff were friendly and very knowledgeable. The member of staff (Danielle I think) who put up with me was just fantastic. She made me feel welcome and gave me all the information I needed. Great experience overall.”

“I would like to share my experience of tourist trips with the tour company "Smile Adventures". I went on excursions twice with this company and two guides from this company. I am happy that I visited new places with Smile Adventures travel company, because it was interesting, exciting, instructive, informative and a lot of fun! I recommend everyone to take the opportunity to travel with a guide Lee. You will definitely not be bored, but you will get an excellent portion of informative information about the new place where you are going, take part in an entertaining quiz about a new place, hear a huge number of jokes, take a lot of beautiful photos with excellent Instagram views and return with unforgettable memories about your trip. I went to North Wales and Chester. Satisfied with trips. I would like to visit all new places with this company, as this is a great opportunity to explore new places for the benefit of yourself and the opportunity to get a lot of positive impressions from the tour and the trip itself. I recommend to everyone - choose the tour company “Smile”. Very positive guys. Energy boost guaranteed!”

“I enjoyed an excellent customer experience when booking my holiday through Park Lane Travel. Amanda and Jo go beyond to ensure your needs and requirements are met. I told them where I wanted to go and what I needed, and they took care of everything, making the booking easy and trouble-free. Without hesitation, I would recommend Park Lane Travel –they are lovely people to deal with, too!”

“We always use the Tui holiday store in Leigh to book our holidays rather than book on line. We always get a good price and find all the staff go over and above to help. Today we were served by Emily who was very helpful, informative and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble. We didn't feel hurried and Emily was very patient and explained everything to us. Thank you so much.”
