I first used going places in June of last year, my husband and I had decided that we wanted to go on a very short notice holiday. We spent the best part of the day going from travel agent to travel agent trying to find a last minute holiday but within a reasonable price but somewhere of interest. Every where we wnt we were offered Ibiza, Spain, France, basically the live it up 18-30 kind of holidays. We didn't want this. We were about to give up hope and Going Places came up with a list as long as your arm of interesting places to go Cuba and Morrocco being two of the choices at very cheap prices. In the end we managed to get away in a 5 starhotel to Agadir Morrocco for a week for less than £600 for us both. It was a fantastic holiday to which we ended up going back to them to book our Honeymoon in Egypt in September. This holiday was a disaster but not to the fault of going places, as we had decided where we were going to stay. We telephone the company from Egypt to try and get an early flight home, although they could not help us out with our request they were very concerned with what was going on and as soon as we returned to the UK the staff went out of their way to help us approach the company we traveled with to compensate us. Even though we had a duff holiday I can not fault the staff and their service. I will never use another company to book my holidays and I would recommend them highly.
Always good to hear of a travel agent who can live up to our expectations - thanks, Pagan
