Have used Conrad from DialAFlight for years and as always he never disappoints. From start to finish it is all about customer service, brilliant. Would highly recommend using this company for all travel
Not one problem on a 6 week trip with many flights,connections and hotels - very pleased with everything you did, thank you
Everything was perfect from the apartment hotels, flights and transfers, Transfer companies were very smart and polite. Now saving for our next trip!
Felt I received great service throughout the booking process and thereafter. Would highly recommend to everyone.
Extremely good response from the DialAflight team especially Dennis. All problems resolved and services provided as planned. Will definitely use them for our next trip.
Always there for advice and help, and very knowledgable in finding the best flights and deals. Thank you guys!
Good service. Thank you.
Good advice, good service, brilliant product, totally satisfied.
Absolutely no hitches. Many thanks
Excellent trip yet again. Thank you
It’s always a pleasure to call DialAFlight. The quality of service and advice is excellent. Lincoln is brilliant. An asset to the company. Don’t ever let him leave.
I am very happy with the service DialAFlight provided. Everything went like clockwork.
Painless process! Saved me hours searching the internet.
I'll book with you next time, says it all!
The car hire firm still caught me out with extras! I had to pay for roadside recovery insurance at $7 a day.
Keep on doing what you are
Matt has organised my trips for the last 6 years. I have been on some amazing adventures, cool hotels and at reasonable prices. Can’t recommend this company highly enough.
Will always consider DialAFlight when planning a trip
Very helpful - even organised visa
Still think it’s outrageous that airlines charge to book a seat. With a party of 4 and several legs to our flights it would have cost £1000 ish to prebook seats!
Thank you Lincoln, the trip was seamless as usual. I have recommended you to friends
First class service. We look forward to using you again.
As always, our trip was organised as requested, confirmation was clear and everything went smoothly. DialAFlight colleagues were helpful, friendly and efficient.
As an older person flying on my own the follow up to the flight was very helpful
Organised our flights and stop off accommodation which all worked well.
You were all terrifically supportive on what was my first big trip after my husband’s death. Big thanks!
What more can I say?
Another good job from the DialAFlight team - many thanks.
Kylie always very helpful and friendly.
Help with visa was a great bonus.
A city book-ended by vineyards and beaches, with quaint Victorian houses sitting alongside tidy parkland, Adelaide is Australia’s emerging hot spot.
A favourite haunt with Britons relocating Down Under, this lovely city with its Mediterranean climate is home to one of the world's most prestigious art and culture festivals.
Which is how I came to find myself blindfolded in a theatre being accosted by a group of young Belgians - all in the cause of cutting edge drama at the Adelaide Festival.
ENDLESS VARIETY
As well as the festival this South Australian city boasts entertainment such as the Adelaide Fringe, the WOMADelaide world music concerts and the Adelaide 500 road-racing extravaganza.
At the festival’s writers’ week, Booker Prize winner Thomas Keneally, author of Schindler's Ark, explained why the jewel of the south has been attracting him since his first appearance at the festival in 1968.
'It's a beautiful place,' he told me. 'It has this wonderful dry heat and the citizens exist among a torrent of wine, flowing out of the Barossa Valley and out of the McLaren Vale.
'Foreign writers love this because it's so warm in the middle of the northern European winter. It's hard to move in my hotel without tripping over some great British novelist or biographer.'
WINEMASTERS
The area is also the country's grape capital, bursting with boutique wine makers, but the giant Jacob's Creek dominates.
I’m treated to a wine master class by Jacob's Creek expert Sacha Bown. The Sensory Experience is billed as an interactive workshop that helps increase your knowledge and enjoyment of the complexities of wine. As a complete wine novice, that isn’t hard. It’s great fun putting my smell and taste to the test with a strange tray of treats, from petrol-scented balls to a strawberry dipped in black pepper.
After a delicious lunch on the balcony of the Creek’s award-winning restaurant, I whizz off to Penfolds winery.
The ‘make your own blend’ experience makes you feel like a winemaker for an hour. It involves mixing three different types of wine in an oversized test tube - you also consume far more wine than you realise.
The Barossa may get the lion’s share of tourist attention but one of South Australia’s other wine regions, the McLaren Vale is a hidden treat.
Ben Neville, who set up his own tour company after leaving the corporate rat race in London, showed me the secrets of the Vale.
Ben is beyond passionate about the area – while providing a rip-roaring four-wheel drive adventure starting with a quick ‘snack’ in the middle of the bush.
A snack involves a table, chairs, gingham tablecloth, china plates, champagne, a view of untouched bush that’s to die for – and an array of mouthwatering canapés freshly prepared that morning by his friend, chef Nigel Rich.
ADVENTURE TIME
We hop back on the vehicles and cruise through Yankalilla and Onkaparinga districts via superb off-road tracks offering vistas across the Fleurieu Peninsula.
We even speed along the mesmeric Silver Sands beach before lunch on a secluded hilltop encapsulated by some (more) breathtaking scenery. Sandwiches on a picnic blanket?
No. Chef Nigel, who trained in some of London's top hotels before setting up his restaurant, The Elbow Room, in McLaren Vale (and, incidentally, whose English mother went to school with Margaret Thatcher) is cooking up a surprise.
The feast is being prepared on the back of his ‘ute’, before being smoked with a curious gadget and some apple chips. It is complemented by wine served by Thomas O’Donnell, who works at the nearby Samuel’s Gorge vineyard.
And in case I was in any doubt about how laid back these people are about their fine product, the owner of Samuel’s Gorge, Justin McNamee sets me straight.
'In the McLaren Vale, we're not in a hurry and never have been to tell the world we are the best.
'I think because we don't overtly jam it down people’s throats, when people actually finally discover it, they go "holy bloody Nelly". And when you drink great wine here and then you go to the beach and you see great art, and then you see the sunset - people are forever saying "I don't want to leave".'
Holy bloody Nelly, he’s right, I don't want to go anywhere.
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 38 years and we do not believe anyone does it better. Judge for yourself.
