EASTRAVEL Traveller Reviews

All arrangements, from arrival in Columbo to departure, worked perfectly. Our driver/guide (Thusith) was excellent, being very good in English, knowledgable, and always willing to bend the programme to meet our wishes. Our particular interest is in birds, and his extensive knowledge of the local wildlife made the safari trips particularly memorable. The safaris at Yala and Uda Walawe were the main highlight for us, followed by the whale watching at Mirissa but the cultural experiences and the tea plantations were also fascinating. The itinerary was very busy, and if we were to drop any element, it would have been the Elephant Orphanage at Pinnawala - we much preferred to see the elephants in the wild later in the tour. Most of the hotels were excellent, although for our tastes, two of them did not quite hit the spot. The Mirissa Hills hotel was all right for one night but we would not have wanted to stay longer. Despite its stunning location, its remoteness and lack of a bar and restaurant,and basic facilities meant that we felt somewhat marooned 5 KM from anywhere! .

The itinerary arranged by Easttravel had been customised for us to suit our particular interests, and the resulting balance was perfect for us. The holiday was arranged at quite short notice, but everything was organised perfectly, and all of our dealings with Eastravel were conducted in a very friendly and efficient manner. This is the second time we have booked a holiday with Eastravel, and they certainly have not disappointed us.

EASTRAVEL PUT TOGETHER A VERY GOOD TAILOR MADE PACKAGE GIVING US GOOD ACCOMMODATION IN THE RIGHT LOCATIONS AND THE RIGHT LEVEL OF GUIDED TOURS TO COVER THE DIFFERENT CULTURAL OVERVIEW OF BOTH VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA.ALL FLIGHTS AND GUIDES WERE EXACTLY AS ARRANGED IN THE ITINARY. THE GUIDES WERE VERY INFORMATIVE AND FRIENDLY ALSO THE TRANSPORT OFFERED WAS ALWAYS CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE

ALL ACCOMMODATION AND TOURS WERE OFFERED FOR OUT TAILOR MADE HOLIDAY BY EASTRAVEL, IN ALL CASES THE CHOICES WERE EXCELLENT.

We spent 3 weeks on a tour of peninsular Malaysia, giving us a range of experiences from visits KL, to Straits settlements of Malacca & Georgetown,the natural beauty of the Cameron Highlands (delightfully cool!) and Taman Negara (hot!) as well as some wonderful R & R on the East Coast. We 'self-drove' for most of the holiday and it was absolutely fine. A very enjoyable holiday!

Esatravel and their local agents were first rate. The suggestions on itinerary and experience were spot on, and all arrangements worked perfectly.

Absolutely fantastic from begining to end.

Everything was planned to the tick

Good accommodation, good guides, floating hotel was brilliant, and Koh samet really was different loved the speed boat transfer. samet Villas were top notch our rooms 1a and 1b were in the best position, with the sea almost at our feet.

Everything went like clockwork exactly to our travel itinerary. The whole experience from our first tentative inquiries to the final package was extremely well organised we shall certainly use you again.

We had a fantastic time. The Marina Mandarin, Singapore is a superb hotel and the service was second to none. The andaman reset in Langkawi was something else! My wife and I were overawed by the service given. What a fantastic place. Thank you Eastravel for yet again proofing a first class service.

First class in every respect.

We spent 10 days in hua hin ( regency Hyatt ) Then 10 days at ( tongsi bay ) Koh Sami Both hotels were very good , we enjoyed all of our time and experience . We have no complaints set all !!

They were all more than helpful . The people we met after our flights and transfers were so kind and helpful . They genuinely seemed happy to met and help us . Also, I would like to add that at no point did we feel that anything was to much trouble . They really were good at what they do .

A trip to Vietnam and Cambodia taking us from Hanoi to magical Halong Bay, on to Hue and Hoi An through a breathtaking pass, Saigon and on to a fabulous Heritage Line cruise ship that took as in to the Mekong Delta and eventually finishing our holiday in Siem Reap with Angkor Wat as the highlight of the holiday. The food, the people, the whole experience is one we will cherish. What made this holiday different to others is the educational element. We came away feeling enlightened with more knowledge about this part of,the world, it's culture , history, and the day to day existence of some of its people. A true holiday experience.

Dorothy Heng and her team went the extra mile. We could not have had a more seamless, brilliantly guided holiday. This is the second time we have used East Travel. I cNnot rate them highly enough. If you want a holiday you know will be organised to perfection choose them.

We had three weeks in Thailand at five different locations , we loved how the trip was organised , the hotels we stayed in were great , all transfers were on time and very well organised and the Thai people were great !!!

Dorothy at East Travel Ltd in Ipswich organised everything perfectly and I will highly recommend the company to others

We spent a week touring Japan taking in Tokyo, Hakone, Kyoto and Hiroshima. It is a country I had wanted to visit for some time and the itinerary put together by Eastravel was perfect. We were very fortunate to get some decent weather throughout which provided superb views of a snow clad Mt Fuji from Tokyo and in and around Hakone. Eastravel arranged all hotels and rail passes and flights to and from Japan. We then travelled to Shanghai and then onwards to Hong Kong by overnight train before flying down to Phuket for Christmas.

I have used Eastravel for over 25 years to organise and plan my trips to South East Asia and they have never let me down and when things have very occasionally gone wrong - with a hotel or flight booking - they have been on hand to sort things out immediately. They know what we like and tailor our holidays accordingly. I would have no hesitation in recommending Eastravel and have done to many of my friends who like me have always been thoroughly impressed with the excellent services they provide.
