Stephen is very responsive, helpful and found a good deal
From start to finish they have been brilliant, it's the first time we have been on a Far East holiday, and I was nervous, but everything form the flights to the hotels and transfers were seamless. We will be using DialAFlight again as they are a first class company that can be trusted to ensure you get a great holiday.
Charles and the team helped me through a bad experience and put my mind at ease and delivered a fantastic holiday - truly amazing, can't thank you enough
Any queries answered, confident in using you for all holidays.
Michelle was brilliant throughout
Looking forward to booking our next holiday next year
Nothing too much trouble. Thanks for your professionalism and kindness throughout - much appreciated
Had the most amazing holiday to Phuket, thanks for sorting it all for us
Have used you many times. Billy has never let me down.
A big thank you
Thank you to the lovely Monica
Very pleased with everything connected with our flight, all the details were correct and made for a great start to our holiday. By far the best flights we have ever been on Qatar Airways.
Adam was so incredibly helpful as was Mason in his absence. Very responsive and reassuring. We were travelling for the first time with a toddler long haul so were very apprehensive.
We had a very straightforward booking but it was handled efficiently and professionally. I had 'shopped around' a great deal before booking, and DialAFlight were very competitively priced.
Always deal with Callum - very professional and eager to help if there's a question
Nice to know you were backing me up
Excellent service throughout the process - we recently flew to Phuket and the whole process was seamless. Would highly recommend DialAFlight
Excellent customer service. Will definitely be using DialAFlight again
Yet another fantastic holiday and your arrangements were top class. I would highly recommend your services, as I did to a few people I met on holiday.
Excellent price for tickets to Bangkok and Phuket with BA. Very nice hotel
Riley arranged the holiday. He was really helpful and a great example of fab customer service.
Always available when an enquiry was needed and even called on the eve of departure
Excellent trip. Collections to and from the airport very well organised. Very happy - once again it's why I use DialAFlight.
Very patient as I had a few panics with the app before I left. Every email I sent was answered quickly and efficiently. I had help booking my seats and they were perfect too. It was my first time travelling to Thailand on my own and I felt really looked after. Excellent service.
Fergus was exceptional in putting our package holiday together. I’ve used DialAFlight numerous times and will continue.
Fab service as always from Guy ...very helpful and really spot on with his advice.
I'm a regular client. You guys are great
Always reliable.
Hotel and staff were fabulous - the only downside there were too many stairs. Would have to have a ground floor room if we went there again
Everything was spot on and I was upgraded to an Ocean Suite which was superb
Phuket may not be perfect. But parts of it are approaching that state of bliss. And it's fairly easy to avoid the parts that aren't.
For example, the busy beachside strip of Patong can be rather a test of patience for those of us who might have grown a little weary of sunset-to-sunrise shenanigans.
But that's not the whole story. After all, Phuket is quite a big island, stretching 30 miles north to south and 13 miles across (joined to the mainland by the Sarasin Bridge) and it offers plenty of options for holidaymakers looking for almost-guaranteed sunshine.
It has come a long way since the days when it boasted just a few beach front bungalows for barefoot backpackers in the Seventies. Back then, it was a grim 17-hour bus ride to get there from Bangkok.
The construction of one international airport later, and there are more than 750 licensed places to stay, with 47,000 rooms available. And in the next few years another 35 hotels are expected to be built.
Mick Jagger, Beyonce, Kate Moss and Rihanna are among the celebrities who have all checked in at Phuket at one time or another. On my most recent visit I stayed at the five-star Dream Phuket, a newish hotel on Layan Beach, a lovely, tranquil stretch of sand on the island's west coast. It is only 20 minutes from Phuket International Airport, but definitely away from any hustle and bustle.
Dream Phuket has large pool complex as well as a beach setting
It has giant beds in large rooms, partly open-plan bathrooms, an enticing swimming pool, international cuisine, a roof-top bar with infinity pool - from which there is a breathtaking panoramic view of the surrounding lush hills - and a great spa offering the full range of treatments including deep tissue massages, aloe wraps and spice scrubs.
At the signature restaurant Trilogy, there's a 'theatre' kitchen where you can watch the chefs sauté and flambé to their hearts' content.
The hotel is not directly on the beach, but it has a separate beach club, with sun loungers and private cabanas, just two minutes away by shuttle bus.
The clear waters are perfect for snorkelling
It is at the beach club that the young and fabulous from Russia, Singapore, Australia and Britain pose on their stools at the swim-up bar and use their phones to snap, study and share their selfies. All day long.
That is good news for the rest of us, as it means there's no wait for the cheap massages on the beach. They're seriously good; I couldn't resist having two in one day. During one of them, a vast man having a massage next to me snored loudly despite the fierce kneading.
Less than half a mile from our hotel is the Project Artisan, Laguna. A labour of love from a gentle Croatian couple with a deep affection for all things Thai, it's a restaurant and deli, open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The hotel also offers foot massages and mani-pedis, while there are plans for a cookery school and art club.
A boat trip is a must. Some prefer to barter for a place on speedboats, which take a well-worn route to celebrity-touched islands such as Phi Phi Le, where Leonardo DiCaprio's film The Beach was shot.
It's clear to see why Phi Phi Island was made famous by The Beach
I opted for a trip on a larger boat which motored to the less well-known Phang Nga Bay. If you want to be more active you can kayak, swim off the back of the boat - or watch long-tailed boats take visitors to the islands of Khao Phing Kan and (The Man With The Golden Gun was filmed here) before returning as the sun sets.
The boat crew speak fluent English and Chinese and, at the end of my trip, the captain said: 'If we have done anything wrong, we hope you forgive us.' There's absolutely nothing to forgive.
The next time I return to Phuket (and I will be returning) I hope to explore more of the island and perhaps fit in a safari experience – yes they offer safaris in Thailand! There are some great luxury safari companies which come highly recommended and offer authentic and respectful encounters with native wild elephants and other spectacular wildlife. After all, there’s more to Thailand than stunning beaches and spas- but it’s a good place to start.
Amazingly, it is simple old-fashioned service that sets us apart from other travel firms. And yes, we really do answer the phone within 5 seconds!
Check out the reviews on Trustpilot and the word ‘service’ appears again and again. And you’ll find many reviews from customers saying they wasted hours trying to plan a holiday themselves before calling us - often on the advice of a friend - only to find we could offer numerous options not available online, which also saved them money.
Our team of 300 travel managers has been arranging tailor-made holidays for almost 40 years and we believe no one does it better. Judge for yourself.
