Fabulous service

Fabulous service - listened to my needs and wants - made strong ‘tests’ as to my sincerity and thorough solutions presented.
No hard sell no deadlines - sensible approach and offered to hold flights while fine tuning.

Compromise and a happy customer

Unfortunately, my health has taken a turn for the worse. I contacted Freedom Destinations to discuss the options available for myself and the company. After a few phone calls, we came to an amicable agreement and arranged a far less strenuous holiday. All of this was done on day 1! Now I have a more stress free holiday to look forward to. Well done Nicola and Caroline, a credit to Freedom Destinations

USA - October 2026

First class experience from initial contact through to booking confirmation.

Charlie, the agent I dealt with throughout the process was outstanding. He initially showed an in-depth knowledge and then provided a full itinerary of the trip we had discussed. Once confirmed, full details of my trip were provided in a timely manner.

I found the personal touch so reassuring and any questions I asked were answered in a detailed manner.
