Another superb trip organised by Bradley
Everything excellent as always. Will use you again
Excellent all round service - reassured me
Dexter, all perfect. Many thanks. We will be back!
DialAFlight take out all the stress that would be involved in booking complicated longhaul flights
Have recommended to my sons and friends - such amazing service
Kylie and Kennedy dealt with our booking. They were both helpful and efficient. I was very impressed with the service and will be in contact soon to discuss options for our next family vacation.
Can’t wait to book my next flight with you.
Both Howard and Russell were excellent in support and no query was ever too much for them. A brilliant service.
Another fantastic trip organised by Kieran Greenfield at DialAFlight. Already planning the next one
Les is brilliant, very customer-focused and helpful...
First class attention. Very pleased with the support and information given by Emma. Very impressed
Matthew and the team are first class in every respect
Thanks Nicole and Theo for your excellent service and making it a smooth trip
We’ve relied on DialAFlight for decades now and wouldn’t go anywhere else
Great communication. Whole process was very smooth.
I tell all my friends about DialAFlight - for longhaul they are the best and Dennis takes the time to follow up on all bookings with a personal touch. No long waits for the phone to be picked up, always better rates than websites can offer and I can’t recommend them highly enough!
Excellent service and would recommend to anyone. Thank you Billy
Jerry always does a brilliant job for me
Great service
Sam was excellent and we would definitely return to book flights with him
As always, 5 stars
The connecting flight time was too short as BA was 45 mins delayed on take off ! Collecting suitcase at Joburg took 40 mins leaving a very tight time scale to go through security and check in so had to push in front of queue to get to flight before gate closed. Although this wasn’t your problem it was still a stressful 30 mins to get to plane on time through no fault of yours or mine
Thank you. 5 stars
We appreciated your help, however we will do everything to avoid flying with BA ever again. Their cost relative to performance is expensive in comparison with other airlines. In addition their service is also poor.
So much more than I could have asked for. So pleased I worked with DialAFlight
Excellent service from Shane and all at DialAFlight. I only ever use them as they are highly reliable, efficient, kind, go over and beyond to assist in all your travels
Leah Jessop, thanks for finding me a break despite my goalposts changing! All the help appreciated, definitely continue to use the agency, love the app, keeping in touch and knowing if things get delayed, you are on it.
BA outbound flight was on old aircraft - no centre toilets, door broken, no headphones plug broken, no blankets. Not your fault but a different experience coming back on a newer aircraft with more room
Sadie is so helpful - every mistake I make she comes to the rescue. Brilliant
Hong Kong Island to Kowloon may only be a few thousand feet across the water, but the contrast is immense; like exchanging a Savile Row suit for a worn leather jacket and scuffed Chelsea boots.
And that's no bad thing. For Kowloon is Hong Kong with its make-up and glitter peeled off: a raucous, mercantile farrago of fast food, fast fashion, fast living and slow traffic.
With freedoms for locals being eroded as Beijing ratchets up its control of Hong Kong, the markets of Kowloon, at least for now, show the rambling chaos of a freeform, unencumbered, mercantile democracy.
As somebody who despises shopping, Kowloon has long been an exception, with its markets that are an unapologetic assault on every sense. Everything you can smell and hear you can also buy, if you're prepared to haggle.
You don't need to rise early to catch the markets of Kowloon. Within one hazy, sun smeared afternoon, I eat fried pancakes filled with plump, briny oysters in the Temple Street market as a karaoke singer warbles K-pop melodies and a wizened fortune-teller attempts to usher me into her stygian gazebo.
I inhale the giddy scents of orchids, bonsai trees and roses at the Mong Kok flower market and gawp at tanks and oxygen-inflated bags filled with indolent-looking goldfish (a key element of feng shui) at the Tung Choi Street fish and reptile market.
It's not entirely necessary to eat everything on the streets, however. Tim Ho Wan (meaning 'with extra good luck') opened a decade ago and became the world's cheapest Michelin starred restaurant.
Serving up mountains of dim sum and green tea and refusing to charge customers more than £10, the restaurant now has franchises across the world.
The branch I visit in West Kowloon is certainly a bit more spick-and-span than the chaotic original shop down the road, but the food has retained its astonishing quality (and low cost) and I spend a contented hour eating turnip cake, pork buns and spring rolls with beef, mushroom and satay sauce.
Kowloon is barely four square miles and I haven't seen half its markets. I'm about to leave when I stumble onto Yuen Po, home to a bird market that is a cacophony of canaries, parrots, sparrows, magpies and parakeets housed in bamboo cages.
One shopkeeper gently chastises a parrot as it spits out a live grasshopper he tries to feed it with chopsticks. 'Diva', he says to me, pointing at the bird, in surprisingly good English. The parrot cackles a retort and turns his back on both of us.
Respite comes eventually on the tip of the peninsula. Looking out over the churning, bruise coloured waters, I admire the forest of skyscrapers across Victoria Harbour on Hong Kong Island that glitter and wink like a princess's jewellery box.
But I want to stay here; for much as HK Island is the showroom of the territory, Kowloon with its heat, pace, sweat and muscle is the engine room.
