This is who we are...
I am proud to introduce our family owned and run travel tour operator based in Surrey. Our bespoke personal service means the team like to talk to you to discuss your holiday over the phone, by email, or even over lunch at a location convenient for you! Everyone involved in the company has a passion for travel and a love for what they do which means that we can focus on making your holiday right for you.
…and this is what we do
Our skill in tailoring your holiday to what interests you means that we work with your schedule and your ideas in order to make most itineraries and holidays private to you or as a part of a small like-minded group.
Our direct personal service, expertise and great value have been a key to the company’s ongoing success – “Small enough to care, big enough to deliver”.
…we also do this…
Just as we take time to consider your needs we take great care in looking after the well-being of the communities in which we operate.
We focus particularly on enabling women in employment, keeping children in education that would otherwise have to work from a young age, and support some of the poorest in the community through food donations and medical aid – Mohamed Fahmy – Managing Director
