Very professional service. Michelle a friendly member of the team answered my query within a few hours and also gave me alternatives for the accommodation. She also held the flights for a few days so I could discuss the quote with my family, I didn't feel pressurised to commit straight away.

We have recently returned from the advertised eShores multi-centre city break to Prague, Vienna and Budapest. We had a fabulous time and are very grateful to Dave Felton who organised everything for us. We didn't have to worry about booking any of it ourselves, as Dave arranged the flights, transfers, hotels and train tickets for us. He responded quickly to our queries and he also gave us tips about places we might like to see on our trip. We received all the information we needed in good time, and appreciated the additional details that eShores include, for example, telephone numbers for transfers and details of exactly where to find the driver at the airport, contact details for the hotels, and advice on travel.

I have just returned from Japan having enjoyed a great adventure with my son. Eshores was recommended to me and has lived up to my expectations in every way. Michelle couldn't have been more helpful with the planning. Don't hesitate to use their service.

Matt dealt with my request for a bespoke trip to Kerala incredibly promptly with good options even though he’d literally just returned from holiday himself. Good prices, changes on my part dealt with quickly and I am so pleased my friend recommended eShores else I’d never have found them
