It has been 6 weeks since my return from South America, and I just wanted to drop your organisation a line, regarding JG. From the start when I booked this some 9 months in advance, Jonny was extremely helpful. Through his positive approach and ability to break down the costs I was able to make an informed decision of where to go and keep to a budget. Even while the trip was underway, I always knew that Jonny would get back to me, in case of problems, which at one stage I needed. Thank you again. I have recommended to other friends to use your services and will continue to do so.

Now that we are back from our world trip thought I would just let you know that everything went smoothly. We had a wonderful time, all the flights and connections you arranged were on time and we could not fault any of the airlines, excellent service at the terminals and the cabin staff were superb, so much to eat and drink and nothing too much trouble. No jet lag problems either! Many thanks for all your help with the arrangements, I would like to think I will be in touch again sometime for another trip, although probably not such adventurous unless a lottery win comes my way. I will certainly recommend you to family and friends.

Thank you for your work on my behalf last October and November. I have just returned via USA and have had a wonderful time. I was upgraded to Business for the trip home and flew on the Airbus 380 from Singapore to Sydney which was a great thrill as part of the plane was built near where I live.. The whole trip was hugely successful and enjoyable – despite, Tim, the Bay of Islands being a complete washout owing to a cyclone which was rampaging around the Pacific just when I went there. So, thank you and I wish you both a happy and successful 2008.

We wanted to say thank you so much for all you did organising our trip and being available via email to answer any queries we might have whatever the time!! The suggestions you made whilst putting the trip together really were 'spot on'. We really didn't know what to expect but in the event with the exception of couple of minor irritations the whole four months was trouble free and everything ran like clock work. We never got used to the concept of arrivng at an airport in the middle of nowhere and invariable a little man being there with our name on a board - but it was great. We both feel incredibly priviledged to have been able to take so much time out and make this trip and the terrific job you did has meant that we have really wonderful memories of our time away. We have yet to finish the blog, fully intend to do so in the next couple of days, but will make sure you're given full credit.

We have already recommended you to a number of people and very much hope that some of them will be in contact. Once again very many thanks. You'll be pleased to hear that we are both back at work on the 2nd Jan and will be busy saving for our next 'adventure' holiday so will be in touch with you again before too long. Best wishes.

Cath and I arrived home Sunday evening after a great three weeks break and I was very impressed with your service, the trip went like clockwork and the hotels you had booked were first class. I will put Travel Nation top of the list when planning our next trip which I hope is not too far down the line. Many thanks again. Best regards.

I've been meaning to write for ages to let you know that we had a fantastic time on our round the world trip. It was a real experience as the only place we had previously been was Toronto. I can't wait to return to all the places to see more of the countries. Many thanks for your help in organising the itinerary and accommodation, and I will certainly be recommending Travel Nation to my friends and relatives.

I booked my round the world trip through you in April 2006. Firstly, I know it's a long way down the line now, but I'd like to say thanks a lot, because it was absolutely superb - I had the best time, and came
home with so many great memories. The places I visited were amazing and the recommendations you gave e.g. Japan rail pass, were spot on, so again, many thanks!

Just a short message to tell you that everything had been perfect on my trip, in part thanks to you. I wasn't sure about a so long trip bought by mail and phone, so I'm simply happy to be back in France so easily. Thanks again.
Hervé
L'Union, France.

Many, many, thanks to you and your team for arranging our Round the World Ticket. We got back on Sunday rather exhausted but we have had a life-changing experience over the last 6 weeks. Brilliant.

No problems with the travel arrangements and flights and the accommodation that you booked for us was very good - especially the Bel Aire Princess in Bangkok - which gave us a standard of luxury that we are not used to when traveling and at a very good price!

Low point - Tahiti. Beautiful Island but the most expensive place that I have ever been (it makes Scandinavia look positively cheap). I don't mind spending a bit of cash but it was poor value-for-money for what you got - eg. Best price I could get for 2 cups of (Nescafe) coffee was over 5GBP and best (tatty) internet cafe price was 5GBP for 30mins.

High point - Easter Island. Without question our favourite place. We hired bicycles for the day and set off seraching for 'Moai'. We found our first around 4 miles out of town and it was wonderful to be on a remote corner of a remote island just with the sea the rocks and the Moai. Thanks once again and I am already praising 'Travel Nation' to friends and family! All the best.

We're off to the UK tomorrow for the start of our trip and I would just like to thank you for all the help and advise you've given. I'm sure we'll have a wonderful time and it would have been impossible to arrange without your expertise. Many thanks.

I never came back to you to tell you how good the holiday was that you organised for us in Feb/March this year. The arrangements were faultless; Port Douglas Sheraton was probably our favourite destination and we were lucky with the weather.

We had the most fantastic holiday, it seems so long ago now!, but it couldn't have been more perfect. As inexperienced World travellers we needed a good deal of support with planning and preparation and Travel Nation and our brilliant contact Martin, were key to the success of the trip. Martin must have been pretty tired of the constant stream of email and phone calls but all were handled with patience and expertise.
Basically we did everything we wanted to do, the peace and tranquility of the retreat, the totally awesome swimming with whalesharks, adrenalin adventures in NZ and the pure paradise of the Cook Islands.
Needless to say ALL future trip will be booked via Travel Nation - My son and girlfriend recommended you guys after their fantastic trip - they were spot on! We wish you every success for the future and hope you eventually get time to relax too.

Thanks again Claire. should I ever need a travel agent I'll give you a call and I have already recommended you to several of my friends. hope things are well for you. best wishes

We have recently returned from our Round the World that you kindly booked for us and just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time, your advice was spot on, the flights went without a hitch, the airlines were all superb, and the seats that you booked were perfect. So thank you very much. We will be recommending you to anyone prepared to listen (I think our friends are bored with our travel stories now!) and will definitely call on you again in the future.

I would just like to pass on our thanks and appreciation at your prompt service and advice when booking our trip. We have had no end of problems with (****) and when they rang me last night to apologise and try and assist us with our booking, I took great pleasure in telling him that we had booked our ticket with Travel Nation and that we had received great service and a very competitive quote from yourselves. We will definitely recommend you to our friends who are thinking of travelling in the future. Keep up the good work! Thanks again,

Just a brief note to thank you for the itnerary and ticket organisation for our world tour which we completed this a.m with our return from Hong Kong. Everything went like clockwork and we have had the most wonderful 10 weeks exploring so many places, catching up with old friends, making new ones and capturing so many fantastic experiences. Perhaps we'll be planning more trips in the future, though not this year- we need to save the pennies!

Having been back from our RTW trip for just over a month, I thought it was time for me to send you a note about how it all went...well, it was truly fantastic, and I can hardly believe we've been to so many amazing places. When friends and family ask us what the best bit was, none of us can answer properly because there was just so many "best" bits...to list just a few : seeing the temples at Angkor Wat, walking on the Great Wall of China, going to a cookery school amongst the beautiful limestone peaks at Yangshuo, cuddling koalas in Queensland, standing in awe at Macchu Picchu, and swimming with sea lions in the Galapagos Islands. If I could, I'd still be out there !

The other reason for this note is to say a big thank you for all your advice, help and hard work in arranging all of this for us - all the flights, hotels, tours etc. went perfectly to plan. The family tours you booked for us were excellent - definitely the best way for us to have done this type of trip. What more can I say but thank you !

Just got back last week from the incredible trip, and just emailing to say thanks!

Thanks a lot for all your help, you've been great! Kind regards,

Just a quick line to say "thank you" for all of your work in putting together our trip to San Francisco and Tonga. All of your arrangements worked like a dream. The 3 resorts that we stayed in were all excellent - but completely different. Would happily recommend any of them. Fafa Island was particularly wonderful - just the beach, the waves, the wind ............

We really appreciated all that you did to put our trip together. It was great to find a company with expertise in long-haul travel, and particularly in putting together unusual mult-leg trips at a sensible price. Jackie, your patience when we wanted to look at "yet another option" was infinite. We would be pleased to recommend you, hope to use you again. With very best wishes

After contacting many different internet traval agencies, Traval Nation were the only company who actually listerned to what we wanted. We had a year to travel and I wanted to try and chase the best seasons along the way, with their own vast travel experience thay were able to suggest a route that was tailor made to us and was very different to anything anybody else was able to deliver. It was also nice to know that they were there at the end of a computer to help us along the way - Thanks

After nothing but broken promises and wrong information from some of the 'Big Boys' travel companies offering round the world options, we decided that their had to be a better way.
And there is.
After finding Travel Nations impressive site, we called late one Friday afternoon in a state of desparation. Could they provide the answers and service that we needed?
Right away we knew we would be in much more professional hands, and so it proved to be, as
Sophy helped us plan our route, highlighted problems and offered solutions and valuable advice, with our interests at heart.
If you are looking for a round the world experience, and are finding the right advice hard to come by, and dont know who to trust, we would have no hesitation in recommending Travel Nation, and look forward to planning our next trip with them!

Travel Nation organised my family's round the world trip, and from start to finish they provided a fantastic service. They provided great advice while we were planning the trip, suggesting alternative stopovers, places to stay, and original ideas for our itinery (such as hiring a campervan in New Zealand instead of a car - brilliant idea, which we would never have thought of ourselves). Most importantly, their attention to detail was meticulous, and the trip went ahead exactly according to plan. After ten flights, more than a dozen hotel bookings, many car (or campervan) hires, and several side trips, we were delighted that everything had gone smoothly and without any hitches. We even received an email from TravelNation the day we returned to welcome us home! The whole experience was positive, and we will definitely book our future long-haul travel with them.

I just wanted to say that I had the most amazing time on my holiday and everything went very
smoothly. I recommended you to everyone I spoke to.
Jane R (Isle of Man)



I just wanted to say thank you for all your help with this booking, you've been great! It really does make the difference when you speak to someone who is knowledgeable about the countries you wish to visit and gives you advice on different way to see and travel around. Its quite a daunting experience to think we will be travelling around the world for the first time but now we have seen it written in black and white it makes it all so real now and very exciting!
Natalie M (Enfield)

I thought I would send you a quick note and thank you for a wonderful itinerary. You set me up a litle more than a year ago with my RTW trip and I have just returned. As was great and the travel part of it was tops. I am truly appreciative of your patience and expertise. Everyone can use a bit of an ego boost
once in a while so cheers mate.
Tim S (Ohio)



Max and I have just returned from our trip and it has to be said it was all fantastic, the travel arrangements and the hotels/booking went exceedingly smoothly (not even any flight delays). We will be in touch soon to give a fuller update. Many thanks for making our adventure a once in a lifetime experience.
Mike and Maxine M (Leicester)

I just wanted to say thankyou for everything last year with our whole travel thing, you were are star and really helped us out....THANKYOU!!I'll probably talk to you later in the year or next....South America is my
next stop!!!!! Thanks again
Rachel P and Vicky P (Hertford)



Around 3 weeks ago I decided to go away with my girlfriend for a year trip to see the wonders of the World. Obviously this meant requiring around the world flights of some kind, and you know how many operators there are! My first point is that after searching many options & talking to all sorts of operators your company provided the best information & quotes. This brings me straight to why I'm writing. Basically the service I have received from my consultant at Travel Nation has been outstanding. It has taken us around 3 weeks to actually book our tickets (we have properties to sort out) during which you have not only been patient but has made suggestions throughout the past few weeks which have improved our journey (costing around £2,300). None of the the other operators went to this extent to find what we wanted - you were the only ones who went the 'extra mile'. As a result we now have a marvellous itinerary & couldn't be happier so a BIG THANK YOU ..
Neil A (Godalming)

Just writing to tell you what a great time I had on my travels - what a brilliant 5 months!!!, and I can't believe I've already been back a month! I have told a few friends about Travel Nation, as you have been very helpful & informative (on both bookings !).
Mr Tim A

Just a short note to say how much we enjoyed our round the world travelling adventure. Everything went very smoothly and we had the trip of a life time. ( despite having to come home early due to my brother's illness - thankfully he is much better.)
I would just like to take this opportunity to thank you for all the hard work you put into organising my trip and helping me with the itinery, I know that I was a very demanding client but you dealt with all my queries, questions and changes of plan with professionalism and good humour. I would also like to extend my thanks to your colleagues who also helped when I telephoned with questions whose enthusiasm convinced me that Travel Nation were the company to help me with my adventure.
.....Once more, thankyou for all your help, patience and professionalism that made for such a wondeful journey for my family and I.
Best Wishes

Just to let you know we are now back home after a fantastic holiday.

Just a very short note to thankyou for organising my year off / RTW ticket last Dec / Jan.Having left UK 10/1/04, I returned on 11/1/05, having had many fantastic experiences. My route was roughly NZ / Oz / SE Asia / Sri Lanka / Europe - with a side trip to Japan thrown in. It was AWESOME !!
Thanks for your great work !

I'd let you know that we've returned safe and sound. It was an absolutely amazing experience and we enjoyed every bit of it. The GAP tour was fantastic, our tour leader was brilliant as were the group we travelled with. Thanks so much for the recommendation. And everything else worked perfectly without a hitch. The only complaint I have was that the parrots didn't show up after we'd got up at 4.00 AM to see them! Guess we'll have to go back sometime to try again.

Have been meaning to write you a big THANK YOU ever since we got back from our trip to New Zealand, your expert knowledge and suggestions proved invaluable. Also an extra special THANK YOU AGAIN for sorting out the glitch we had with the camper van people, you really went above and beyond the call of duty.

Everything you did for us made the entire trip a truly fantastic one. We are recommending you to everyone we know who's going anywhere. However I do have one bone to pick with you......Awaroa Lodge you recommended to us was too nice, I ended up getting carried away and proposing to Wendy, so now we've got to plan a honeymoon thats even better than that trip. So we'll be in touch to start planning it soon.
Many Thanks again and again

I just wanted to say thank you for all the help and advice you gave us for booking our trip. We had been given such unhelpful and useless advice by all the other Travel Agents we spoke to this morning we nearly gave up! It was a relief to finally speak to someone who had been travelling themselves, also someone who listened to what we wanted to do and advised the best and most financially viable way for us to do it.
