Thank for organising the trip - it was fantastic.
Everything went very smoothly
You are are the best.
Emily Aird was fantastic in sorting our holiday and for keeping us posted. A brilliant service, thank you.
Having someone, with relevant experience to recommend options and then take on the administrative burden gave us peace of mind/assurance that if any issues came up there was someone there to help resolve them. I thought they were just a flight broker but they offer so much more so if you need a partner to build and book your dream holiday look no further than Emily our consultant
Usual good service
Always helpful
Very professional service from start to finish Have used DialAFlight for many years
I have been using your company for several years. We have always received excellent service and travel advice, also back up whenever needed even from abroad. Your managers, Fraser and now Gino have been brilliant.
Thanks again Deborah and team for looking after us on our trip to Thailand. Everything went smoothly and the hotels and transfers were spot on. I’ll be using you again very soon.
This was a beautifully scheduled and packed 3 country holiday in great hotels that suited our needs. I definitely would recommend others to use DialAFlight as the first point of call for any intended holiday.
As always everything went well
Great deal on flights, great communication, someone was always available to help at all times. Would highly recommend
Great service as always. Thank you Spencer and team.
Owen was very helpful, worked out an excellent itinerary and gave us lots of advice. The hotels he booked were of a good standard and perfectly located. It gave us confidence to know that DialAFlight were available 24 hours a day to support us throughout our holiday if we got into any difficulty.
It gives you peace of mind when flights abroad are taken care of by someone reliable.
Excellent service
The Assistance at Heathrow is rubbish
Great to be able to talk to a responsive and knowledgeable human being....and get in touch so quickly|
We were not impressed with Qatar Airways
Always knowledgeable and helpful
Absolutely outstanding
Excellent service and communication
It is very reassuring to have a phone contact to help with flight details especially for the older generation.
Have used DialAFlight many times and they have excelled each time. Maybe not the cheapest option but the service you receive makes up for that. Seymour has gone over and above for us on the three holidays we have booked with him.
Excellent service from Ben, once again
We have used DialAFlight before and will use them again.
Amazing service. Thanks so much Jamie. Will definitely use you again
Easy from start to finish.
Bali was the place friends kept telling me I should visit. Surely nowhere could be that fabulous - but it lived up to the hype. I loved it.
There was an enormous sense of tradition, belief in family values and beautiful aesthetics - there's nowhere like it.
I hadn't gone with any intention of searching for new fabrics or inspiration for designs - after all, I really had no idea what I would find.
It is so spiritual - it's astonishing how many temples there are. I arrived after an exhausting Fashion Week, but from the moment I entered Alila Villas Soori - the most amazing hotel I've seen - I felt thoroughly relaxed.
Alila Villas Soori is on Bali's south-west coast in the Tabanan regency, 20 minutes from Tanah Lot temple, the island's most sacred. It's one of Bali's prettiest regions, between the sea and rice terraces, with mystical Mount Batukaru in the distance.
My bedroom overlooked a glorious beach - the sand black and volcanic.
When I woke on the first morning, it felt almost enchanted. It had been stormy overnight and the beach was full of people collecting driftwood for fuel. Some were dragging away large pieces to turn into sculptures, to sell to tourists.
I had incredible spa treatments. ?They make their own soaps - volcanic, rice and cinnamon - all beautifully scented. And I saw how they use volcanic sand in body scrubs
The hotel's Cotta restaurant had a French and a local chef, together creating a magnificent fusion of French and Balinese.
After three days it was time to explore. The mountains in the centre of the island were a two-hour drive, but worth it.
I was in the picturesque Bali you see in guidebooks - rice fields and irrigation ditches everywhere.
I went whitewater rafting - and all around were stunning temples and rice fields. It was one of the greatest outdoor adventures I've ever had.
Later I thought I could hear music. When I asked what it was, I was told: 'It's the monks praying.'
There were often religious processions, and I was able to enjoy it all at close quarters.
For the second part of my stay, I moved to the Alila Villas Uluwatu at the south of the island. It was in a gorgeous area, above limestone cliffs and sandy beaches - very smart and fashionable, yet very tranquil.
A pool was set high above the Indian Ocean, with one of the world's best views.
I was surprised to find a well-stocked library, with books about traditional crafts such as weaving and basket-making.
My guide took me to a museum in Denpasar focusing on local handicrafts, with displays of traditional textiles and hand-made masks and tapestries.
Then I went on a bit of a 'treasure hunt' to learn more about the local dyeing techniques of batik and ikat. I discovered beautiful ikat weaves using gold and silver threads. I was learning about the culture and history of Bali through its crafts.
I bought so much local handiwork I had to buy a second suitcase.
I came across antiques shops where they have lots of textiles - some hundreds of years old - which you can buy.
At a temple at Uluwatu, on a cliff edge, I saw people performing a traditional dance.
There was a choir of 70 men who sang and then went into a meditation dance called a kecak -extraordinary.
What I saw in Bali proved to be a source of inspiration for my designs. I took many pictures, and I'm going to translate my experiences into some very modern, glamorous, Julien Macdonald designs.
I'm sitting surrounded by batik, ikat and incense - ready to go to work.
My ten days in Bali simply weren't enough. I'm already planning another trip.
