Your website was a revelation! Our holiday organizing would not have been possible without it! The minute I found the site and starting navigating it I was telling everyone about it. I played around with it for about 3 months before we actually booked our holiday in February 2016. It was amazing to see the distance and time between each destination and the routes we could take. Then going onto the hotel booking section was very easy. Your team were great when we were missing a confirmation email as well. We had an amazing trip and I would recommend to anyone travelling around instead of lying on a beach for 2 weeks. We also got engaged while we were in Rome, so it was the perfect holiday!!

We had a wonderful trip and the route planned through RoutePerfect was wonderful. All the hotels we booked through your company were also very good. We had no problems with the bookings or checking in processes and being able to pay in stages when we booked the trip made budgeting very easy. We found the whole process of planning our trip and booking accommodation through RoutePerfect to be very simple and have recommended RoutePerfect to many of our friends and acquaintances.
