Having used Route Perfect before I was very happy with the service I received, the whole process is very slick and well organised, from the booking of the hotels on the website to the smooth check in process at the hotels, each hotel seems to give preferential/extra value rates for RoutePerfect bookings and I had no hesitation in booking with you again this year for our Italian Tour. Great service, good value, helpful team, I cant rate you highly enough! Well done - I am a very happy customer.

Have just arrived back in NZ after being away for one month... I cannot speak highly enough of your organisation very informative, very professional and met all expectations. Everything worked like clockwork and went without a hitch. I have already recommended your organisation to friends and relatives who need help in planning a European tour. Thanks again for your very impressive website and your attention to detail.
