EASTRAVEL Traveller Reviews

We have been dealing with Eastravel for many years for our Far East holidays. We travelled to Singapore for 2 nights before embarking to Miri in Sarawak, East Malaysia. We were in Miri for Chinese New Year with our families and friends. Whilst in Miri, we went to Lambir waterfall and Batu Niah caves. From Miri we spent one night in KL and went to the Petrinas twin towers and met up with some relatives. We had one week in Koh Chang island in Thailand. It was a lovely island, not too commercialised yet but there are quite a selection of bars restaurants and street stalls. The White sand beach is lovely. We went on a boat trip which was fun. We went on an elephant trekking which was interesting and exciting. We loved the elephants. Our whole trip and itinerary was spot on and fawless. The flights, hotels and transportation were as what we wanted and Eastravel made it happened. The staff are knowledgeable about the Far East and range of hotels. Their prices are realistic and competitive with the service and experience they bring. We are happy with the service that Eastravel provides and we would recommend anyone to them for their travel arrangements to the Far East. Kind Regards Anne and Rob Cheshire

Knowledgeable, professional, helpful and accommodating. Eastravel is reliable and delivers your ideal holiday arrangements.

We were met by our excellent guide in Sandakan and spent one night on Selingan Island seeing the conservation work being carried out to save the turtles and we were lucky enough to see a nesting turtle. We then spent 2 nights at Sukau Rainforest Lodge which is a wonderful place and all the staff were extremely knowledgable, friendly and helpful. We were again very lucky and saw plenty of wildlife including several orang utans and elephants, not to mention plenty of birds, monkeys and crocodiles.

East Travel were very helpful with their suggestions for our short stay in Sabah, we could not have been better looked after and everything went very smoothly. Everyone concerned, both at East and in Sabah, was knowledgable and friendly.

Produced a great and memorable trip for us. Thank you

Total luxury, no one could fault this hotel . If they did then it says more about them . Everything was wonderful ( apart from very loud Americans ) We had the best time ever ..

They couldn't have been more helpful, couldn't fault them . The guys at East travel always help with everything . The operator in playa del carman and the airport helped with everything we required.

Eastravel as usual came up trumps. Brilliant flights and perfect ground arrangements. Despite this being a quite short trip to S. Africa it was made so easy and relaxing staying at some elegant lodges along the way. Could not have been bettered especially and very good value.

really excellent selection of lodges along the way and our driver/guide was knowledgeable and top rank. Experience counts.

We have used Eastravel for many years and their handling of queries and attention to even the smallest detail is superb. Eastravel put a great deal of effort and expertise into helping us plan our itinerary and their input is invaluable. The accuracy and presentation and reliability a of all documentation cannot be faulted. The quality of all the accommodation is excellent. We find that Eastravel provide not only excellent value for money but a truly exceptional personal service. All our trips have definitely met if not exceed our expectations. Memorable experiences are numerous but we especially cherish the time we spend with the many friends we have met on our travels.

Eastravel offer an exceptional personal service that is second to none.

As usual, well organized by East Travel, marred only by the standard of service and food on Turkish Airlines.

Always reliable and always give good advice and go the extra mile in ensuring we have a great holiday

For the first week we travelled through the south of Myanmar, based at Moulmein and Hpa-An, getting between the two places by boat up the Salween river. Then back to Yangon and an internal flight to Bagan, then up the Ayerawaddy to Mandalay. Side excursions from both these bases included Mount Popa and Pyin Oo Lwin. A flight to Heho and a night at Kalaw was followed by a two day trek ending at Inle Lake, Then a flight to Thandwe and four nights at Ngapali Beach. As well as learning so much about the country, and finding people very easy to talk with, we explored by water and on foot, snorkelled, caved, and most memorably ate a lot of wonderful Burmese food. We didn't know what to expect - it is a relaxed, friendly and safe place, exotic and unspoiled.

Lots of consultation ensured that our personal tastes for accommodation and programme were met. We knew next to nothing about Myanmar when we planned the holiday, and when we arrived we realised how well Dorothy had done in her choices for us. The local tour operator was obviously an excellent choice as our guides were a lot more informative and capable than those with other travellers. It was a complicated itinerary but it was all arranged very efficiently. The only slight hitch, where one item of our luggage didn't arrive, was speedily resolved without our having to do anything. Full marks to Eastravel.

We found ourselves in a fascinating country where everyone without exception was friendly and helpful. The history is fascinating the Portuguese having played a great part. Stories of the previous Sultan and the input of the present leader show why this is now such a progressive country. Muscat Nizwa Sohar all are special in their own way, the market in Nizwa is not to be missed. We self drove and the desert drive to 1000 nights camp should not be taken lightly they have been obliged to place the camp deep in the desert and the law does not allow for plentiful signing the way is not clearly defined and the hand drawn map leaves a lot to the imagination, once there the drive becomes secondary it,s a magical place. At the moment there is huge investment in infrastructure so there are endless road works and diversions but driving is a pleasure , watch out for strange and sudden changes in speed limits most don,t make sense . Also they have a gift for spelling a place name in numerous ways. Bottom line go there .

Very professional, punctual and reliable.
