Your site is easy to navigate and being able to request breakfast and parking was fantastic. Mapping out a route based on where we wanted to visit was easy and we could tweak it so we didn’t have huge distances between locations . Your team is very efficient and they sorted a new hotel that met our requirements when one was unavailable. The hotels were excellent, clean to a high standard, and, staff were friendly.

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!!
