Colin was fantastic from initial enquiry through to departure over a 2 year period. A superb, proactive and seamless service. Our trip was disrupted 3 times due to Covid - would highly recommend DialAFlight to friends and family in future.

Ease and comfort from the start to the finish
Good personal old fashioned service. Well done and many thanks.
A very complicated build up to an eventful holiday. Julie was brilliant. We couldn't speak too highly of her effective support through some awkward times. Loved the holiday at Raffles, Praslin. Smooth, pleasant if long journeys to and from as well.
Gareth did a great job
Great service as always, especially in these fast moving, ever-changing travel times.

As always, excellent service
Jim comes up with the best suggestions every time.
Gino was great and looked after us well,
The travel arrangements worked well Hotels were of a high standard and managed to get upper floor junior suites in good locations but had to ask.
Excellent from start to finish! Thank you all very much.
I have recommended my family and friends
Roy did a excellent job...
Great service and the rental car was a great help
The service from DialAFlight in general but Eric in particular was outstanding. Eric was the most proactive and professional of any agent that we have dealt with in the recent past.
Everything went smoothly and we had a fabulous holiday
Thank you Sonny and the DialAFlight Team for arranging a wonderful memorable holiday .
I have been ruined. After
visiting the North Island resort in the Seychelles, I never want to go anywhere
else. It was a holiday that changed me, my husband Paul and our 14-year-old
twin daughters for the better, and at the same time we contributed to making
the island just that little bit better for the locals.
We travelled there during our daughters' half-term. From
the capital Mahe, the easiest way to get to North Island in 15 minutes is by
helicopter. Of course it is!

A SPECIAL PLACE
And of course the island, which measures just five square
miles, has beautiful white sand and the bluest of seas. There are only 11 guest
villas here, all five-star plus luxury, but the wonderful thing is there's
nothing fancy or flashy - no unnecessary in-room gadgets, just simplicity that
enhances the natural beauty of the island.
The combination of barefoot luxury within an exquisite wilderness sanctuary, laden with experiences
and immersive learning about the environment, makes it unforgettable. On our
second night, we'd had dinner on the beach and were heading back to our
villa when, in the dim headlight glow from our buggy, we saw the outline of a
magnificent giant tortoise.

ADOPTING A TORTOISE
What a beautiful creature, almost prehistoric. And there it
was, just a couple of feet from us. There are between 80 and 100 giant Aldabra
tortoises on the island, a breed endemic to the Seychelles. The one we were now
crouching down to admire was about 3ft long and 90 years old.
The next day we were invited to discover more about these
beauties from the passionate environmentalists and scientists who live and work
on North Island.Not only did we learn so much but we also became adoptive
parents to a baby tortoise called Corona. Maybe one day my great-grandchildren
will visit the island and see Corona fully grown.
One night we slept with a telephone next to our beds so we
could be woken if baby turtles, protected within their eggs at several points
around the island, hatched and needed help heading down to the sea. Alas it
wasn't to be on our watch.
Pelagic fish, rare tortoises and towering fan coral can be seen
NORTH ISLAND HISTORY
In 1997, when The Wilderness Group
bought North Island, it was a wasteland where feral animals and alien plant
species were choking and destroying all indigenous fauna and flora.
The company set out to reverse this
situation, and it has since established a sanctuary where natural beauty, and
threatened flora and fauna, have been saved.
Children throughout the Seychelles
come to stay and experience the island, and there is a constant effort to help
locals improve the environment.
LOCAL ACTIVITIES
I could have spent my week doing very
little but because everything is made so easy we ended up doing things we would
never normally do. I learned to scuba-dive along with the girls, Phoebe and
Theodora - something Paul has been pleading with us to do for years.
One afternoon we went fishing,
trawling from a boat, while Paul and I enjoyed a beer. We caught so many fish
that I barely had time to finish my drink. The chef was waiting to take our
catch straight to the kitchen and an hour later we were eating sushi by
candlelight on the beach.
Each of the 11 villas stretches out on
to powdery white sand and the properties feature a plunge pool, indoor and
outdoor bathrooms, and a kitchen filled with goodies.
Visitors here have included the Duke
and Duchess of Cambridge (on their honeymoon), George and Amal Clooney and
David and Victoria Beckham.
Meals on North Island are what you
want when you want - and more or less, wherever you want to eat them.
On our last night, the team prepared a
surprise for us and led us up a hillside jutting out into the ocean. As we
rounded the hilltop, we found cushions scattered on the rocks, a fire pit, and
tray containing all of our favourite drinks over the past week.
It was a most beautiful occasion in
the most amazing spot, overlooking the sea as the heat faded from the
day.
