Travel Department Recensioni 

Our 5th trip away with Travel Dept. This one to Sorrento Pompeii and Capri. Very enjoyable ,great guide Lorenzo. Hotel 🏨 up in the hills above Sorrento. Lovely terrace to dine on every evening. Day trips just long enough. Staff were excellent. We’ll be booking again for a trip or two next year

Location LLe De Re near Lar Rochelle.
Lovely clean roomy house and an ideal holiday home for a large group. There were 14 adults and this house was able to cater easily with the big group.
The location was fantastic and loads of restaurants etc.
All the bedrooms had en suite which was great.

Very well organised, nice mix of tour and rest days, excellent tour guide Alessandra

Great guides, fantastic locations and adventures, excellent planning and back-up. We have been on 15 trips since 2013. Only one disappointed and that was down to some unfortunate stresses with the participant, beyond the control of TD. Top of our preferences would be Budapest and Prague, Como, Andalusia, Puglia, Barcelona and Greece. High class travel venues and organisation.

Great service, didn’t have to think for myself.

No useful communication when the flights were cancelled. TD Decided that flights over 2 days after original ones was a satisfactory alternative and told me there were no other flights, but I was able to buy flights home that got me back a few hours after the original flights.
No communication from Travel Department after I returned home. All communication instigated by me.
Had to do all the chasing for refunds etc. So some basic communication would be an improvement.

This is our 3rd time doing Lake Como with the travel department and as usual the booking experience and organisation was exceptional. It's great to just turn up at Dublin airport and have everything organised with precision. Two of our highlights (among so many) was the exquisite breakfast in hotel Menagio by the lake and the Bernina express. We will do it again soon.

I travelled from Dublin to Bulgaria with a friend on 12th May - back to Dublin 20th May 20th 2026.we were arriving after and were told a cold platter would be there for us.- we were handed a brown paper bag with a croissant,a scone, pack of butter and jam. Also a banana,! The hotel in Nessebar resort ,classed a 5 star was a beautiful, bedroom very comfortable. BUT no kettle, minimum number of towels. No extras! There was a coffee machine along the corridor but the lights turned themselves off if there was no movement. I was standing with boiling water pouring into the cup and lights went off. - very unsafe.
Food was a disappointment - every meal self service. The hot food was not hot. More or less the same menu for two weeks.
My friend had a painful hip and could not come down for her food one day. I asked at reception if it could be taken up to her only to find out there was no room service. I was handed a tray, l had collected the food and carry it myself up several floors. I could not work the lift as both hands were holding the tray. A man who did not speak English came along and by nodding he managed to put me in the lift and push the button for my floor. I had to repeat this for each meal. Certainly not 5 star!!
The tours,guide and people were good.

Our Trip to Lake Maggiore was an excellent trip. Travel Department do it very well and especially their tour guides, they are always excellent and really approachable, helpful, uplifting people. The Hotel was a lovely family run, friendly, perfect hotel. Food was excellent. Bedroom was bright and airy and spotless. The atmosphere in the hotel was very good, the staff were excellent in every way. We really enjoyed the whole holiday.

Tour guides are very knowledgeable

Excellent holday until You arrive back to airport. Great excursions

We’re just home after a week spent in Lake Como and used the Travel Department for our organised tours.
Our guide was Carol - all we can say is such a big thank you for making our holiday and all the tours so very enjoyable! Your friendliness, fun and knowledge was amazing! We’ve never had a holiday before with pre-organised tours but this certainly won’t be our last! Thank you so much Carol, you’re one lovely lady!

Excellent holiday in Prague. Hotel is top class. Tour guide bursting with knowledge, information and advice. She was excited to help with absolutely anything. Highly recommend this trip.

Dear Travel Department,
I just want to say a huge thank you to you for our recent Danube Cruise holiday. It was without doubt the best holiday myself and my wife Rita were ever on. We will absolutely be booking with you again next year and please feel free to use this message as genuine and unsolicited feedback from two very satisfied customers

Great local guide

Have booked holidays with the travel department for many years. I have found the service they provide to be very welcoming to the customer

Clear information on website

Our guide was excellent and very accommodating. The hotel was in need of refurbishment but was clean and the air conditioning in the room was fantastic and we had ample hot water. We didn’t have a balcony which was disappointing but it was so hot it was unlikely that we would have sat out on it anyway. Hotel location was excellent. Breakfast was adequate.

Well organised, excellent guides and easily contacted. Seat selection and allocation of flight seats could improve. Excellent company

Another wonderful holiday in Italy organised by Travel Department. This year we headed to Lake Maggiore. Right from check in at Dublin Airport until we returned a week later everything went like clockwork. Air-conditioned coaches doing transfers and waiting at the hotel to take you on some fantastic day trips. A beautiful hotel right on the lake with great views and wonderful staff and food. A tour guide called Carolyn who was so knowledgeable on everything and very caring for some of the guests a little less mobile than the rest. A perfect holiday and hopefully we will see you all next summer.
