Essential Experiences are great! We flew to Corfu for an all inclusive holiday. Unfortunately the hotel wasn’t what we were expecting. The staff were bad, the food was poor and our room wasn’t correct... See more

First class service and unbeatable price!

Nothing but positive things to say about Essential experiences. Very well presented and informative. The staff who I dealt with was amazing and I couldn't be happier with the service I received throughout the whole booking process. I made a mistake upon booking, which she rectified so promptly without any hesitation. The attention and care to customer requirements is impeccable.

Smooth booking experience, transparent pricing

We had a seamless experience booking our flights to Mexico City. Where other travel search engines were untransparent about pricing (e.g baggage allowance, hidden fees), Essential Experiences was clear and easy to understand what you are paying for. Also reassuring to know we booked from a UK business with UK customer support. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic site and great staff

Fantastic site. Easy to navigate around and with some of the best prices on the market. Great choice and very flexible regarding hotels, flight or car hire.
The customer service is equally fantastic, I had a couple of questions which were dealt with very promptly and by staff who are polite and easy to talk to.
Highly recommended.

Trip to the Scottish Highlands

Had a lovely few days in the Scottish Highlands in a beautiful spa hotel near Loch Lomond. Room was well equipped, onsite spa and restaurant were of a very high standard. We even got some Scottish sun.

Easy to book and a decent price. Couldn't be happier!

Excellent Experience

I used Essential Experiences to arrange my return trip from London to Boston. Nothing but positive things to say, hassle free experience and their customer service team were friendly and quick to reply, unlike a lot of the bigger and more established companies. Will definitely use again!
