Your calls always answered within 5 rings.
Excellent customer service. Have never been disappointed.
What can I say but perfect. Thank you.
Could not ask for any more support from the team dealing with my flights. Excellent.
I phoned several times after booking my flight for information. On every occasion I was answered promptly and dealt with professionally and in a friendly, helpful way. I have used your company a few times now
Consistently great service
Nadia brilliant as ever. Very efficient, very professional. Really helpful in achieving value for money.
Always good service
Wayne is very, helpful, knowledgeable, approachable and is able to guide us to the right places. I would recommend him to all my friends
I have been so impressed with DialAFlight! Elliott was incredibly helpful throughout and we got an excellent quote for what turned out to be an incredible holiday.
Fantastic service all the time from Neil Frost and his team
You are our go-to travel agents!
Very good service - kept us up to date and organised everything quickly. Would recommend. 5 stars
Quality of hotels very good and car hire problem free. Good service and very happy overall
Sorry but was not overall enthralled by the accommodation. Location was good but a very tired hotel unfortunately. I know we only sleep there but could have had better eating facilities, a coffee counter in the morning only and sweets all day.
A first class service which I will use again
All good, Bradley is so efficient and everything went very well. Thank you so much,
Perfect as always
Fantastic reassuring, straightforward advice! Always there when needed and when we were put on standby on the first leg of our journey a panicked phone call from me was quietly reassuring: “ If I was a betting man, I would say you’ll get on.“ Thanks. Terrific.
Gary Patel has been excellent - providing us with a service that is 5 star
Your performance was, as always, excellent. The performance of American Airlines on my return flight from Raleigh Durham was not.
Billy, who I dealt with, was personable and efficient
Obviously the BA flight getting cancelled is not ideal but not your fault
Eric was amazing as always
Noah worked some miracles to get me to the States and back. Thank you!
Great service from Oscar - would definitely recommend DialAFlight to friends
Roy Copeland always delivers above and beyond
Darryll was incredibly helpful throughout our booking process. He found us a great deal and when our return flight was cancelled he responded very promptly to book us alternative travel with minimal time difference.
Erin was great. She found me a good priced flight exactly as needed. She responded quickly and efficiently to my queries.
Adam always goes above and beyond.
Thank you to Carina for helping us when our flight was cancelled
Peru is often considered a backpacker’s destination - after all, one of the highlights is a long hike to Machu Picchu in less-than-glamorous (but certainly scenic) conditions.
But as the country has become increasingly popular destination, trips there have been transformed - and it's possible to stay in the lap of Peruvian luxury. Following the cue of Gwyneth Paltrow, who visited recently with her children Apple and Moses, five-star options include hotels with personal butler service, restaurants with world-renowned chefs, and even (if you can really push the boat out, so to speak) private train travel. An Inca citadel in the 15th and 16th centuries, Machu Picchu wasn’t on most of the world’s radar until it was ‘discovered’ by Hiram Bingham in 1911. With its breathtaking views of the Andes and improbably-located ruins, it’s truly a sight to behold.
The Sumaq Machu Picchu Hotel is one of two five-star hotels in town - it's the go-to spot for celebrity visitors such as Indian actress Aishwarya Rai and has racked up accolades for being one of the top hotels in South America. After being picked up from the town’s rail station, guests are welcomed with a pisco sour - the country’s signature drink - as well as home-made chocolate in their rooms, where they can enjoy sweeping views of the Vilcanota river and mountains.
Following a day up at the ruins, nothing is more welcome than a stint at Sumaq’s Aqlla Spa, where visitors have a range of blissful treatments from which to choose, including the signature Aqlla massage and Andean stone massage.
Though there are direct trains that take travellers to Machu Picchu all the way from Cusco, Inca Rail offers a private chartered service, the Inca Princess, from the Sacred Valley town of Ollantaytambo.
Stars to have chartered it have included Miss Paltrow, Mick Jagger, Bono, and David Guetta, as well as foreign leaders. The Inca Princess provides an entire private car with a dedicated staff of three for the 1 hour 45-minute journey.
For a $10,000 round trip, the car seats up to eight, who are welcomed on board with champagne or tea, served a gourmet meal and who watch the stunning countryside through UV-protected windows, or from the car's balcony.
Peru’s Sacred Valley is dotted with rich in Inca heritage, including villages, Ollantaytambo and Pisac, archaeological site, Moray, and ancient salt mine, Salineras de Maras.
The Tambo del Inka, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Valle Sagrado is a Starwood resort that has earned awards for sustainability and enticed famous names such as Susan Sarandon and, most recently, Jill Biden.
Tambo del Inka’s Hawa restaurant serves organic vegetables from its own garden, and adventurous eaters can try a local delicacy, cuy - that’s guinea pig - served in a less intimidating fillet form.
The former capital of the Inca empire, Cusco can keep a visitor busy for days with its beautiful churches, convents, and temples.
The JW Marriott Convento hotel is a restored 16th-century convent which retains some original structure. Check-in under the glow of a giant 70,000-Swarovski-crystal homage to the sun god Inti, and guests are welcomed with a helpful cup of coca or mint tea, which can alleviate altitude sickness. The property - the bedrooms of which have oxygen piped in - is built atop Inca ruins, and tours highlighting its history are offered.
The Belmond Palazio Nazarenas hotel, which has had stay One Direction and, again, Miss Paltrow, is also a former convent, with fountains in the courtyards dating back to the 17th century. The rooms here are also oxygen-enhanced. A personal butler escorts guests to their rooms.
The Senzo restaurant is beside the pool and is headed by Virgilio Martinez, the chef behind Lima’s world-renowned Central restaurant.
The capital is often overlooked, but is worth a stop for scoping out the pretty Miraflores neighbourhood and partaking in the foodie scene - particularly if you can get a reservation at Central, which ranked number four on the exclusive World’s 50 Best Restaurants list last year.
The award-winning Swissotel Lima boasts a grand lobby with live music. Bedrooms have walk-in closets and cosy robes - while the spa is the last word in luxury.
