We recently went on a Thomson Platinum Holiday in Egypt and had a fantastic time.

My husband and I decided to have a holiday, just the two of us for a change, and fancied something a bit more sophisticated and special.

We had never used Thomson before, always went for the cheaper companies which really doesn't always prove to be the best thing to do. So this time we walked into a Thomson Travel Agent, sat down and asked them to send us somewhere nice. We had no idea where to go we just knew when!!!

The travel agent was an extremely helpful and amiable young woman, we felt at ease and straight away trusted her judgement. She had a good, sound knowledge base of various countries and hotels, and upon hearing our likes and dislikes chose a hotel in Sharm el Sheik, which I will leave for another review.

The Thomson Platinum experience is marvellous. As they advertise in the brochure, top quality accommodation and excellent locations all at a reasonable price which won't break the bank.

Not only was the hotel well above our expectations but the service we received from Thomson was top notch. Our tickets arrived on time, no having to chase anyone up. There were no changes to our flight times. We were dropped off at the hotel first. The holiday rep had a good sound knowledge of the area and culture. Although it is their job to sell trips etc, we didn't feel pushed into doing anything. I can honestly say the Thomson experience was fantastic, so much so that we are going on a Thomson Gold holiday in September (Couples only, no children)!!!!

Several people I know have had bad experiences with Thomson, wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them, not far at all. This is a helpful review, but this is also a large title and more info would really improve this review, let me know if you update this one
