Everything went very well. Our booking for La Belle Vie Hotel in Hanoi was changed on arrival to the new Hotel Jardin, an excellent 5-star hotel in the same street. I can certainly recommend it.
It has been fab trip, made so much better by the very competitive quote for the whole package. Travel manager was there every time to answer any questions and provided us with quotes for a possible change in the itinerary
Istanbul's new airport is a nightmare - long walk to get to departure gates, many people missing flights. They need a transport system like they have in Paris CDG. I will never fly via Istanbul again. Not your fault but you need to be aware
Great service - flight seats were where I asked
Amazing holiday - everything was perfect. Lily put this holiday together for us ( our 5th holiday booked with her) and will certainly be contacting her in the future
Thanks to Sam and Neil for arranging and keeping in touch
I like the personal service offered.
Joel was very helpful and all the flights were as planned and baby seats were all booked making the flights very easy.
Very helpful at all times.
Chris arranged everything superbly and I really appreciate the speed and simplicity of telephone communication with your office. No messing with pre-recorded answering systems.
Christian in the Manchester office provided excellent service and booked great flights- as always.
Your staff are superb. Every time they speak to you they know everything about your travel plans and you feel like their only customer
I came back to DialAFlight after a few years of using price comparison sites. Jackson was most attentive and reliable, and found us a deal that was way better than anything I’d seen elsewhere!
When our Cathay Pacific flight was cancelled I spoke to Lee who could not have been more helpful. He advised there were seats to Hong Kong out of Heathrow at 8pm that night and that we should insist on getting seats reserved on there. Cathay Pacific initially advised the flight was full but when I confirmed that DialAFlight advised otherwise they changed their minds. I have been recommending DialAFlight to friends for years.
Always been more than happy with excellent service
Incredibly helpful staff. Phone answered quickly. Quick responses to emails. Very clear correspondence and instructions with regards to flights. Will recommend and use in future.
Thank you for all your help. I am new to DialAFlight and would definitely book again. Great experience.
Service that was 110%!
Perfect as always
Christian was very helpful, we will use him again.
Oliver looked after us very well and any queries we had were promptly sorted.
Patrick has been a great help from start to finish, we willl be back to book our next trip soon
Samuel did an excellent job. From initial contact to discussing options and then the final details of the booking.
Just the service I need for my travels
Fantastic service. Will be back!
A very good service.
I can say A very big THANK YOU to your staff. All very good and nice, no problems. It can't be better.
Rico is always excellent
Easiest flights I’ve ever booked and probably the most important! Fraser who was paired with us was so helpful, we even sent him an email whilst we were on our trip and he replied so quickly. Thank you so much.
Very polite and good customer care.
The long transition from war zone to
fashionable holiday place has happened several times before, but never perhaps
with such pace and style as that accomplished by Vietnam and Cambodia.
Until relatively recently Vietnam's Mekong Delta summoned up thoughts of the epic 1979 war movie Apocalypse Now, in which Martin Sheen's soldier journeys upriver on a patrol boat in search of a renegade officer played by Marlon Brando.
A highlight is to watch the sun rise over Angkor Wat
A BIT ABOUT THE
MEKONG
The Mekong played a key role in the
war. Former US Secretary of State John Kerry commanded a Swift patrol boat on
the river 50 years ago - he was so appalled by what he saw during his period of
combat that he became a fervent anti-war campaigner. He subsequently entered
politics, becoming the Democratic nominee for President in 2004.
Last year, Kerry returned to the Delta and discovered that the free-fire zone he had served in was now the starting point for one of the world's great cruising experiences.
The 2,700-mile Mekong begins as
snowfall on the Tibetan plateau among the Himalayas - and ends at the Mekong
Delta in Vietnam where it flows into the sea. Like most rivers, through history
it has been a source of life and hope. Its waters play a vital part in
irrigation: in the Mekong Delta the rice fields thrive because of it.
Politically, it acts as a border between countries - it passes through six.

ALONG THE RIVER
A Vietnam and Cambodia river trip
needs at least a fortnight to do it justice - beginning for example in Ho Chi
Minh City, formerly Saigon, and ending in Siem Reap near the extraordinary
Angkor temple complex. A highlight of any trip here is to watch the sunrise
over Angkor Wat.
As with most river cruises, a key
attraction is the service on board. Much sought after is the cuisine of
Luke Nguyen - an acclaimed chef, author and TV personality who serves his own
brand of local cuisine paired with quality wines. In Ho Chi Minh City,
passengers can enjoy an exclusive dinner at the stylish Xu restaurant, inspired
by Luke, with a range of exquisite dishes that offer a contemporary take on
traditional Vietnamese favourites.
There is also the possibility of
having a Vietnamese cooking class on some boats, as well as a dance show by
children from a local orphanage, a water blessing by a monk and a visit to a
local farmer's home.
Guests can visit the Cu Chi tunnels, which were used by the Viet Cong. There is also a chance to enjoy the Rex Hotel, famous as the place where during the Vietnam War the American military command held its daily news conference, referred to by war correspondents as the Five O'Clock Follies thanks to the absurd optimism of the American officers. The Rex's rooftop bar was a well-known hangout for military officials and war correspondents.
There are more harrowing reminders of
troubled times in Cambodia, where tours are available from Phnom Penh to the
Killing Fields at the village of Choeung Ek, the site of a Buddhist memorial to
the victims and a genocide museum commemorating the genocide.
A memorial park has been built around
the mass graves of many thousands of victims, most of whom were executed after
interrogation at the S-21 Prison in Phnom Penh. Tuol Svay Pray High was turned
into a torture, interrogation and execution centre. Of the 14,000 people known
to have entered, only seven survived.
But the most memorable feature for
most visitors will be arriving at Siem Reap, from which tours depart to Angkor
Wat.
Take a tour a long the Mekong Delta
SIEM REAP
Siem Reap used to be a stopping-off point. Thanks to the
growth in tourism it has become a destination in its own right. It has attracted
a burgeoning community of Cambodian and international artists: the Angkor Wat
International Film Festival, for example, has become a major event.
The prime attraction, however, is the
temple complex at Angkor Wat, where you will be taken to watch the sunrise. The
temples are on top of a hill; on arrival you will enjoy a fabulous view over
Tonle Sap lake, the Kulen Plateau and paddy fields.
Built more than 1,000 years ago, the
temple is beautiful, particularly when the frangipani trees are
in bloom.
