Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Bradley Edy was efficient and easy to reach via email when I had any questions and I was kept in the loop. On return journey when there were flight times changes I was advised in good time. Would use again.
Adrian Crolla did a great job helping organise everything - flights, transfers, hotel all great.
Each time I deal with DialAflight I have had excellent, friendly and very efficient service at a fair cost. Highly recommended by me.
Alll went smoothly and we were delighted with your service. Thank you very much.
As always a first class service.Thank you
We had an amazing, all inclusive deal which Ivor Savage tailormade for us and it all worked out fine. Although our destination was 'Winter Season' the weather was mixed but sunny most days with showers, but always a pleasant 23-24* - warmer than our summer in most of June. Nice to come back to a heatwave!
Loved every minute of the holiday which went like clockwork - thank you Ed
Calvin sorted every single detail for me. Seamless experience as usual. Thank you
Just perfect. Good service, good price, easy comms. Will definitely be back.
Great service and follow up pre trip. Ray's help was much appreciated
First time booking with DialAFlight - everything from the first phone call to Sam to arriving home went like a dream. Airport transfers and day trips in Mauritius were booked with Coquille Bonheur through DialAFlight, who went above and beyond what we expected. Would thoroughly recommended both DialAFlight and Coquille Bonheur.
The hotel was excellent, and I would definitely recommend it.
Perfect, exactly what we asked for and more. Thank you Nicholas
Great service, achieved exactly what we wanted and everything worked.
See you soon for my next trip
Always a superb service booking travel with Ryan
Billy and Orlando are a fantastic support for all my travel arrangements. I always consult with them first before exploring any other venues
Fantastic holiday and service as per usual. Les so helpful the whole way through!
Everyone, particularly Oliver, was great.
Special mention to Karl Patel who had to handle special assistance requests and all the arrangements ran smoothly.
Our outward flight was cancelled and rearranged for the next day. Awaiting compensation from Air Mauritius.
Excellent service and very helpful staff
Another great trip, thank you
Couldn’t be better. All delivered as promised.
Very good support and planning. The flights were tiring and the weather in Seychelles not great - but DialAFlight support was there always
Thank you Kirsty. We had the best holiday after having to cancel for personal reasons the first time. Your support and help was invaluable
Paying for the upgrade was worth it, spoilt now!
We did have an issue while checking into the Marriott in Dubai but an email to Stan and Donovan and this was resolved
5 star service. Would certainly use again. Thanks Bradley
The lounge used by Air Mauritius at Gatwick was a vast improvement on the dreadful lounge used previously at Heathrow. We were informed by email of checking in procedures. Everything went very well.
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.
