Very good communication. Could ring or email if I had any questions and would always be answered. Great customer service. Highly recommend
Always good to be able to talk to someone direct on the phone who knows what you want and is capable of delivering.
Dale has been fantastic. He took the hard work and logistics out of my hands and made it a seamless experience. Really appreciate all the attention to detail, additional comms, and the ease of the DialAFlight app to track my information as and when I needed it
After waiting over two years to get to Australia (COVID 19 got in the way) flights were spot on. Excellent staff. Stan Castle worked tirelessly as he had to change original booking at least three times. Highly recommended.
Excellent service as per usual, thank you
Amazing personal service - have used them many times and would not go to anyone else
The advice we were given by Lucas was good and sound.
Francis was excellent and we were so lucky to get a flight home for my sister. He went out of his way to help. Can't thank him enough.
Fantastic!
Very impressed. Everyone was extremely helpful
Samuel couldn’t have been more helpful and patient. I really appreciated his help and support. Couldn’t fault his professionalism.
We didn't realise that our JetStar flight from Cairns to Tokyo didn't include everything. We had to pay extra to use the entertainment system and if we wanted drinks other than water plus two complimentary cups of coffee each.
Many thanks for organising everything so well. I appreciate all your assistance.
Marco and Dominic were excellent, we couldn’t ask for better service. Will certainly book again with DialAFlight
Great service
Planning our first visit to Australia and working around the date of a family wedding in Melbourne took some planning. Ed worked with us patiently, gave us some great advice on Cairns, worked in a stopover in Singapore and flights into and out of different locations in Australia to maximise our use of time. It worked perfectly. Thank you!
Very pleased. Would definitely use you again
This is the second time we have used DialAFlight to arrange our trip to Australia and everything was perfect. Thanks to Thomas for doing an excellent job
Would never do longhaul with BA legroom in economy - it was the same as if you were going to Europe and the food was naff!
Raj did a fine job in the arrangement of our trip to Australia
Everything went like clockwork as always - thank Vinnie again for all his help
Thanks to Dylan for suggesting such good hotels and places to go. All went to plan so very pleased!
Mitch always finds best flights for me to fly Business Class to Australia - 5 yrs in a row.
I was very pleased with the service and friendly manner of Ryan the consultant who supported us.
Everything went completely to plan and I could not have been any happier with the service provided,
Great trip. All just as you said it would be .
Great help again. Peace of mind through out the holiday
Top company, will use again.
Always very pleased with your service
Absolutely perfect service which made our holiday fantastic.
After wrapping up another Springwatch series, it was time to put on my ruby slippers and follow the yellow brick road to Oz.
My partner Nick is very Afrocentric when it comes to wildlife, so I've made it my mission to introduce him to the wilds of the world. He'd never seen a koala, kangaroo or wombat, let alone heard of a pademelon (smaller than a wallaby) or a potaroo (a nocturnal rat kangaroo), and neither had my 11-year-old son Ollie.
KEWARRA BEACH RESORT
We flew to Cairns for the start of our three-week holiday, and our first adventure was a boat trip to the Great Barrier Reef.
It's one of the wonders of the world and Ollie found everything fascinating, especially the fact that clownfish are all born males - the dominant male turns female only when the female of the group dies.
We were staying first at the Kewarra Beach Resort, just north of Cairns, and I woke up one morning to the sound of bats. I followed the racket and found the roost of thousands of fruit bats.
With binoculars, camera and mozzie spray to hand, I enjoyed their chitter-chatter for an hour. I was mesmerised.
Later, we went on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway over the Barron Gorge National Park - an amazing way to view the world's oldest continually-surviving tropical rainforest.
THALA BEACH RESERVE
We moved on to the Thala Beach Nature Reserve, ten miles from Four Mile Beach. Like Kewarra, the comfortable rooms were set within a rainforest. We kept fit at both resorts: by doing yoga at Kewarra and by walking to breakfast at Thala - it's built on a very steep hill.
We couldn't resist a second visit to the Great Barrier Reef, travelling from Port Douglas.
The marina had a relaxed feel and the weather was sunny and calm.
I saw lots of gorgeous colourful coral and so many fish, and it was a privilege to be in this incredible underwater environment.
DAINTREE ECO LODGE
Next was the Daintree
Eco Lodge and Spa, with 15 beautiful treehouse-style rooms set along a river with a forest view. We loved it.
On our way to the Lodge, we'd stopped at Mossman Gorge and did the gorge walk - a two-hour amble through the rainforest, with an Aboriginal guide giving fascinating information about the site.
We also went on a sunset cruise from Daintree and enjoyed spotting crocodiles, kingfishers and the well-camouflaged Papuan frogmouth (a nocturnal bird related to a nightjar). A full-day tour took us to the remote headland and wildlife reserve of Cape Tribulation, Daintree rainforest, a lunch stop where we hand-fed wallabies - and a visit to a great ice-cream factory!
But a highlight was definitely Jungle Surfing - zip-wiring is surely the best way to experience one of the oldest tropical rainforests in the world.
JABIRU SAFARI LODGE
We headed inland to Jabiru Safari Lodge on the Mareeba Wetlands - a totally different experience. It had a real safari feel, with bush tents in open savannah. It really felt like the Outback.
I set the alarm for 4.30am to go on a hot-air balloon ride - so romantic.
After returning to earth we went in search of a wild platypus and with patience saw two in the river at Peterson Creek. They are extraordinary creatures, and we were lucky to spot them as they're nocturnal. We drove to the Nerada tea plantation, where they have resident tree kangaroos - and after a lot of looking we spotted them. That was another big tick considering they are now restricted to a small area of Australia.
I had a special reunion at Tolga bat hospital near Cairns, where I'd filmed at 15 years ago for the Really Wild Show. Staff rehabilitate lots of species but mainly fruit bats.
A relaxing final morning was spent at Jabiru - although we were woken early by a laughing kookaburra.
We all felt as if we'd followed the yellow brick road and had experienced the wonderful wildlife of Oz. But unlike Dorothy, we weren't ready to tap our ruby-red slippers together and fly home - we could've easily stayed for much longer.
