Never disappointed when booking with these guys. Excellent service as always
Another great holiday!
Friendly and competent as usual
Keep up the good work!
Wouldn't go to any other travel agent
As always excellent service. The hotel was very good, the staff were so nice. Only comment was the bus service from the hotel to Port Soller was very erratic and they need more restaurants other than two Spanish ones in the hotel
Excellent
Friendly professional staff.
Always first class service
Reid is the best travel agent in the world - an absolute gem
Superb follow up from all staff members. Always phoned back when promised and looked after our party every step of the way. So happy with the service and advice. Thank you so much for everything!
Everything went smoothly, one connection was a little tight but turned out OK.
Your service was splendid but easyJet's was quite appalling and we were delayed 3 days only struggling back via Madrid and expensively, too. I'll be in touch for advice on how to deal with my claim.
Ivor was absolutely superb. His patience in finding us the right holiday at our budget was much appreciated and the communication was excellent. Thanks to him, you have a customer for life!
Philip Bardsley's service is really great
Ross has been excellent and a credit to your company
Jarvis and his team continue to provide an excellent service
Another fantastic trip organised by Cody who has booked numerous trips for us. He is always very helpful, reliable and gives good advice too. I always feel in good hands knowing I can contact Cody him anytime.
My contact at DialAFlight was absolutely amazing - his customer support was outstanding. Hats off to Toby
Great service and everything went perfectly
Excellent service, thank you
Superb as always
It was great from the first phone call. The emails and call before I left were reassuring. I will be back.
Always a pleasure to have you book my arrangements
Very good customer service
A good hotel but entirely unsuitable for people in our age group. Maybe a little research into hotels offered could be wise.
Great little week away .
Patrick went above and beyond the call of duty to help me with check in tech hiccups and reserving extra legroom.
Assistance did not work at either end. Gatwick absolutely rubbish .. staff trying hard, management should all be sacked from their vastly overpaid jobs. Same in Alicante. That is the truth of it, which should not be covered up.
As usual Philip and his team were fantastic.
The Mediterranean city of Valencia has an astounding cathedral, brilliant beaches, renaissance churches, some of the most striking modern architecture in Europe, fabulous seafood and gutsy red wine.
The locals are intensely proud of their city, culture and language, a form of Catalan called Valencian.
They might not shout about it as loudly as the Barcelonians, but perhaps that's because some might say their city is - whisper it - even better than Barcelona.
Who needs the whorls of Gaudi's Sagrada Familia when you've got the spiralled columns of the city's gothic Silk Exchange? Even paella was invented here.
After the River Turia flooded disastrously in 1957, the government diverted its waters. Now the wide green riverbed snakes through the city, providing 9km of parkland and a home for the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias, an eruption of futuristic pavilions, lakes, an Imax cinema, aquarium and botanic gardens.
All of this is overlooked by the tallest opera house in the world, Santiago Calatrava's steel and concrete Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia, an ancient Greek helmet-shaped building.
Take a glass of wine on the breeze-cooled palm terrace before the opera or come back on Friday evening when music students from the nearby Berklee College of Music, the first international campus of the Boston-based college, give free concerts from April to October on a floating stage in the lake.
Valencia cathedral and the Micalet bell tower are must-sees, but be sure to look up when you are inside the cathedral.
The windows are filled with inch-thin alabaster instead of glass. This makes for a spectral interior rendered even more eerie by the presence of Francisco Goya's 1788 painting St Francis Borgia At The Deathbed Of An Impenitent, where a figure of Christ on the crucifix spurts blood on to a sinner.
Step into the cathedral's Holy Grail chapel, home to a revered silver chalice which, as it dates to the 1st century AD, might just be the real thing.
You'll find modern art at the Institut Valencia d'Art Modern (El Ivam) and El Greco paintings at the El Patriarca museum.
The city is famous for its ceramics and tiles, a tradition that dates back to the long years of Moorish rule. But you'll also find Picasso's work at The National Museum of Ceramics in Ciutat Vella, housed in a baroque palazzo with the most famous decorated doorway in Spain.
Go to the marvellous antiguedades shop on Corretgeria street, where there are tiles in geometric patterns, or line drawings of doves from the 19th century and earlier.
After taking in the Napoleonic-era shell marks in the ancient masonry of the Ciutat Vella's Porta de Serrans, have a restorative pitcher of Agua de Valencia. The madly baroque Cafe de las Horas, in Comte d'Almodovar street, serves this super-charged drink with cava and spirits. There are also non-alcoholic cocktails. And cake!
Like Barcelona, Valencia has a famous city shoreline, but you'll find fewer people on Malvarrosa Beach, a 15-minute bus or tram ride from the city centre.
Casa Carmela, set back from the Malvarrosa Beach, is the place for paella. Locals favour the rabbit offal, snails and chicken paella cooked on open fire pits.
Take a morning cafe solo in the Estacion Del Norte, one of Europe's best-preserved art nouveau railway stations, and marvel at the ceramic fruits hanging from columns and tile murals.
Just over 100 years old, Estacion Del Norte stands like a north African fort beside the city's brick bullring.
There has been a resurgence in local cuisine, with new takes on staples such as hake and pork.
The Mercat de Colon is a gastronomic destination with restaurants including Habitual, run by Michelin-starred chef Ricard Camarena.
In the Ruzafa quarter, the enthusiastic staff of 2 Estaciones serve tuna with peanuts, muscatel, lime and watermelon - and Valencian wine to make it zing.
