I booked a holiday to India with Chris at EShores. He is very helpful, always ready to listen and always answers emails. There was an issue with our hotel in Goa, we had booked a twin room for me and my sister but they didn't have any, Chris offered for EShores to pay for the upgrade. He booked us the Golden Triangle tour through Viator which was great and everything else went to plan.

We usually travel independantly but decided to use eshores to tailor make a trip to the Caribbean for us next year. Claire was superb. She really listened to us and the things we do and do not like. We are very happy with the itinerary she has put together for us for January 2026.

Booked a holiday to South africa and zanzibar. I have to say that Chris was amazing in helping us find the right holiday. He was extremely helpful as usual and this is our third booking with eshores. He tailored our holiday and even worked evenings and weekends to help us find the ideal holiday. A BIG thanks to Chris (yet again) and eshores. What a great service and always value for money.
