Our tour around Ireland was great, and much credit to your company! All the hotels we chose were good and some were outstanding - we wouldn't have found these little gems without RoutePerfect, so many thanks. Price was also very good value.

My experience with RoutePerfect was better than I expected. The website was intuitive, the staff were extremely helpful and I can't think of a single bad experience with the RoutePerfect service. We had a wonderful trip. The hotels were what we expected them to be, except one which was WAY better than expected. With your site, I was able to plan our honeymoon with ease, without any travel agents. I'm lead to believe that we got the best hotel prices as well and I was happy with what we paid. I managed to save a lot of money for shopping :) Our Italy trip was amazing, and exactly how we imagined.
