Travel Department Recensioni 

Excellent trip on Douro. The boat staff food and excursions were wonderful. However using Lisbon airport was a disaster .
Transfers were too long.

I love that all is pre arranged for the trip. You have your itinerary and basically all you have to keep in mind is turning up on time. People are friendly, all seeking the same experience.I have travelled many times with The Travel Department and will do so again and again.

We just completed a wonderful 12 day Egypt tour with Nile cruise, newly built Cairo museum, temples and finished with a few days in the Hurghada resort. Overall, we would highly recommend The Travel Department and, in particular, our assigned guide, Dodi. He is an expert Egyptologist but a lot more besides. He made a good holiday and great one.

Great knowledgeable guides, lovely garden tours.

Sent my review one week ago, thank you

The company looked after our group remarkably well. The hotels in Antequera and Granada were fine. We had a wonderful guide: Alex was very well-informed, amusing and patient. Don't let him go. Give him a bonus.

Great value for money and food really great at hotel

Just returned from a 12 day tour of Egypt covering the Great Pyramids and Grand Egyptian Museum of Cairo, 7-day Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan and back and a 2-day stay in Hurghada Red Sea Resort. The tour, led by our amazing tour guide Dodi, was informative, interesting, never a dull moment, and most of all fun. Everything went smoothly and highly recommend the staff, food and accommodation at all stages of the tour.

Our trip to Egypt was a fantastic experience. Everything was excellent, the hotels we stayed in, the river cruise where the staff and the food were exceptional.
And we were blessed to have an outstanding guide in Dodi. He is extremely knowledgeable, patient and best of all great fun. We had a tremendous trip.

We have just returned from a fabulous and very memorable holiday Highlights of Vietnam with The Travel Department. From the beginning right up to the end the entire trip was brilliantly organised. Everything worked like clockwork. Our guide Jimmy Chung was superb from the moment we met him until we said Goodbye to him at Saigon airport. We were with a terrific group of people who all contributed to making the experience even more special. We are looking forward to booking our next holiday with The Travel Department.

Egypt Ciro 2 days, 7 days Nile cruise ,the 3 day beach resort. Very well organised on all levels and events. Tour Guide Aimen (nickname Dodie) was engaging, exceptional well informed on subject matters and friendly (5*)

Great trip, well organised and run by the great and knowledgeable Dodi. Surely the best guide we could have had. The only flies in the ointment were the fact that, due to a wait of over an hour in Cairo passport control, the coach left without us. Resulting in us having to pay €40 for a taxi to the hotel. No apology or refund. The cruise boat, while comfortable was very old and dated. The food on board wasn't very good, although there was plenty of it. Almost everyone in our party of 40 had stomach upsets (or worse).

Our hotel was huge set in beautifully maintained grounds with well appointed swimming pools. The beach was very accessible and the town of BUDVA was within walking distance on a beautiful coastal walk. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Good choice of food for all meals.

Very good guide Ingrid from the first meet up and throughout the week, she was a great guide. The hotel was very nice, and very cental, lovely staff especially the staff in the breakfast room, who were funny and jolly. I was very happy with my accomodation. The daily tours were fabulous. I would have preferred more time in the Rothchilds gardens than Nice, but that is my opinion. All went swimmingly as usual with travel department. I shall be back on tour with TD soon.

Our trip to Egypt was amazing.
It was faultless start to end.
The guide, Dodi, was friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. He took great pride in his county and his work, he couldn't do enough for us.
The optional trips are well worthwhile.

Dad’s Army !
We recently completed a 3-city tour of China with Travel Department, and I can honestly say it exceeded all expectations. The entire trip was exceptionally well organised from start to finish, with every detail carefully thought out.

A special mention has to go to our local representative, Jack. He truly made the experience seamless. Everything was arranged perfectly—no long queues, no confusion, and every day ran like clockwork. He ensured everyone was ready and comfortable for each excursion, and there were absolutely no hiccups along the way.

On the rare occasion that a small issue arose, Jack handled it with complete professionalism and efficiency. He was also great company during longer journeys, keeping us entertained and making the travel time pass quickly.

His dedication, organisation, and warm personality played a huge role in both the smooth running and overall enjoyment of the trip. It’s clear he takes great pride in what he does.

I would highly recommend this tour and Travel Department to anyone considering a similar holiday. I’m already looking forward to my next trip—and fingers crossed, I’ll be lucky enough to have Jack as our rep again!

We recently booked a trip to China with the Travel Department and we had the most amazing experience. The local guide, Jack, made the holiday run super efficiently, he was a wealth of knowledge and information, and he was super enthusiastic. The transfers were flawless and accommodation etc. was first class. Highly recommended !!

We recently returned from a trip to the Costa del Sol, including Nerja, Malaga & Granada. We stayed at the Ibersol Almuñécar Beach & Spa. The hotel has a great location just off the seafront. The staff, for the most part, were excellent, both friendly and efficient. The trips were both interesting and worthwhile, and the driver(whose name I forgot) was excellent. We struck it lucky with the group, who were great craic. Our guide Claire was just brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble for her. The only slightly negative point was the quality and choice of the main course on a couple of nights; aside from that, the choice at breakfast and the evening meal starters were the stars of the show. Overall, we had a great holiday.

Guides and walks excellent. Tough terrain and quite dangerous but managable if youre a walker already. Selection of walks on various parts of island great as you get completly different perspective. Pick up from airport and bussed around excellent. Packed lunches amazing. Very impressed..

The hotel accommodation was excellent. The river cruise and the visits to the museum the tombs and the temples were enjoyable and informative and the guide Dodi was top notch. I have nothing negative to say about the trip and wish it could have been a little longer.
