Very happy with the services provided so far, and I am particularly pleased with how our travel agent Emily was able to not only set up a great initial plan for our Japan holiday, but she also was very quick and super polite when it came to amending our itinerary to our specifications, as well as the transparency in terms of the details of our trip and the associated costs. I am very excited to embark on the upcoming journey!

My 2nd time booking with eShores. Excellent customer service working with one agent to create a personalised, bespoke holiday. My arrangements changed part-way through so a number of quotes were needed. Nick was patient, helpful and responded quickly (by email and phone) throughout. Well recommended.

I sent eShores an email asking them to tailor a holiday to Italy for me. This is a surprise for my husbands 70th birthday. Therefore we could only liaise via email. Leanne got onto it straight away and sent me all the necessary information. I phined her the following day when my husband was out. She explained everything to me. I was so grateful as this took the stress off of me.

Fantastic service from Lynette from start to finish. Went to Australia this year and Lynette sorted everything out for us, even when we had a small emergency, when in Perth, she answered our concerns straight away and looked into it and advised us what to do. We had such a great time we're off to America next year and Lynette has sorted us again, hoping this time that everything goes according to plan!!!!
