Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
The flights, hotel and location were excellent. Many thanks Glen
It’s a shame Emirates weren’t as good as you. Thank you for organising, we had a great time, hotel still very good
We have just completed a 7 week holiday in Singapore, NZ and Dubai. Everything ran like clockwork. Brilliant organisation and choice of hotels and flights. We had a superb holiday, thanks to DialAFlight
5* again from Darryll and the team.
If El Al did half as good a job as you do, it would have been a great trip. It is a pretty bad airline. I hope BA will resume their flight to Tel Aviv soon.
Great service from Todd Cafferkey
Third time using you. Will definitely be back.
Everything arranged perfectly
First class service
The Rixos in my opinion is a little tired. The staff were very, very good and the cleaning was excellent. Having stayed at the Rixos in Abu Dhabi I was a little disappointed with this one. But we enjoyed our holiday
No pick up at airport in Seychelles
The staff and service are fantastic
Extremely helpful from beginning to end
We booked a twin room but when we got to the hotel they said the booking was showing as a king room. They resolved this but wanted to provide this feedback
Jake is always excellent
We will definitely use you guys again for our holidays of which we have quite a few
I love the service you get - and nothing is a problem, even if you want to make changes
Thanks to Leah Jessop as always
Heathrow a disgrace. No service
Big thanks to Liam for all his help including our favourite hotel room.
Another successful trip organised by Taylor at DialAFlight. Received a room upgrade as well. A two bedroom suite!
Will definitely make DialAFlight my first port of call when booking holidays in the future! Excellent service all round
Just keep doing more of what you do well ...
Helpful and efficient. Thank you
Such friendly and helpful people. We were able to just enjoy our holiday and not have to worry about anything at all. What a rare pleasure to find such expertise these days.
Everything was fine as usual when dealing with DialAFlight. Thanks to Bruce once again for everything
Glen was very efficient and informative. We particularly appreciated being able to contact him directly both by phone and email. The resort was lovely and lived up to our expectations but we were, however, extremely disappointed with the Emirates business flight
Super helpful and efficient
DialAFlight simply do not fail to deliver on service and reliability.
Excellent service - everything ran smoothly
Mid-afternoon and the sun is at shirt-sleeve strength, the air scented with shrimp, garlic and sherry and every inch of the Plaza del Salvador is occupied. A public holiday? No – merely Seville as Friday ripens into the weekend.
For the full spectrum of the city's pleasures in a weekend, opt for one of the newer, smaller hotels near this central square. Hotels such as the Alminar, where manager Francisco and his team will let you in on the Seville's secrets.
Santa Cruz, once the Jewish quarter, is east from here and home to the baroque splendour of the Salvador church. There is little traffic, just the occasional car or waspish moped. It is a bewildering tangle of fountains, courtyards and secluded gardens.
The Giralda, the bell tower, spot-lit at night, which crowns the cathedral, is a helpful marker: use it as a guide and you can wander, perhaps to Calle Mateos Gago, where the pavements overflow with tables, chairs and orange trees. For artistic intensity, head to Casa de la Memoria on Calle Cuna for flamenco of almost spiritual possession; heels machine-gunning down on bare floorboards.
Back in a roof-terrace room at the Alminar, you have a private view of the cathedral, just 50 yards away. An empire of a building, its dark interior has an altar drenched in gold and a tomb supposedly containing the remains of Christopher Columbus.
Two minutes' walk to the south is the Alcazar, the royal palace, which requires a full afternoon. Its toy fort castellated walls belie the decorative intricacy within including colonnaded courtyards and regal chambers with stucco friezes and azulejo tiles. The gardens boast palms, peacocks and an hourly water-powered organ recital.
Squeeze in also Casa Pilatos, one of the Duchess of Medinaceli's many residences. There is an El Greco in the dining room, a Tintoretto in the tower room and, most memorably, a painting of a breastfeeding, bearded woman, with her husband looking haggard at her shoulder.
The Sevillanos do justice to Sunday lunch, dining until at least 5pm – so there is time to digest the feast of your experiences at an outside table at Modesto in Santa Cruz or La Fabrica in the Alameda area before flying home.
