Vietnam and Cambodia

My husband and I have just returned from 21 days in Vietnam and Cambodia. It was our first experience with Imagine holidays and I don’t hesitate to say “it will not be our last”.
Throughout the whole trip everything was well organised and well executed. Tour guides were prompt, knowledgeable and very friendly.
Hotels were of a high standard and very comfortable.
We did have one long travel day, but overall
we enjoyed every aspect of the trip. Especially the week long, all inclusive cruise with Lotus Cruises on the Mekong Navigator. The staff were amazing! It was a special highlight.
All in all we would not hesitate to recommend Imagine Holidays.

It was a small Group tour of Vietnam…

It was a small Group tour of Vietnam and Cambodia. The issuing of tickets was easy. Instructions on necessary visas and travel insurance were clear. No hitch with flights from Perth to Singapore and on to Hanoi. There met the rest of our five members of the group. Met with knowledgeable guides shown hotels and arranged all ongoing tours.Throughout our two week+ tour had different but knowledgeable guides. Their arrangements with drivers, hotels etc were flawless. This is my 3rd travel arrangement with Imagine Holidays Australia. Whilst the others by Imagine were good, this one exceeded our expectations.I have used a variety of Australian based travel agents, but I have found Imagine has generally been better in the follow up and care shown to me and my wife in the arrangements. I do not know if they (Imagine) were more expensive than other competitors but the choice of hotels, the location of hotels the amount of leisure time and the meals were all excellent. Our group have all agreed without encouragement to provide review to other platforms. I am more than happy to speak to anyone in Australia of our age group (70- 84) to discuss this further. Also our Aussie groups - although diverse, got on well with each other having met for the first time. And like other tours we have been some I know will keep in touch long after this trip.

One minor suggestion- there needs to be more information available to persons who have to walk or climb steps on uneven surfaces in these countries. One member of our group had to sometimes stay back and not risk climbing steps in places like the Angkor Wok Temples etc.

Great time on Indian Pacific rail journey

The Indian Pacific train experience was fantastic. After 3 nights in Perth we boarded and ate like kings, had a fabulous array of beverages and wonderful staff. The lounge car enabled us to meet friendly people from all over the world. Off train activities in Kalgoorlie, Barossa Valley, Broken Hill and the Blue Mountains were brilliantly organised and and highly enjoyable. Whilst it is not cheap, it is so worth it.

Imagine holidays cruise with extras

We recently returned from a relaxing holiday on the Cunard Queen Elizabeth from Sydney to Singapore in February organised by a wonderful Imagine team who were alway there to support the guests ,especially in Singapore .The ship was elegant and catering for all needs was excellent . One of the highlights in Singapore was the two nights entertainment with John Gleese at Raffles Hotel also part of the holiday. Big thumbs up to Imagine & already looking into our next holiday with them

Solo female traveller

As a solo female traveler, I was advised I had to make my own way to the hotel from a very busy international airport in an Asian country, as my flights had to be booked separately to everyone else. It was a daunting experience and not a good start to a dream holiday. A few times the guide did not ensure I was okay on my own. I was not asking for special treatment, just a more caring approach. The tour itself was fabulous though, as my fellow travellers were the best!

Dear Kay,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're delighted to hear that you had a fabulous time on the tour itself and that your fellow travellers made your journey even more enjoyable. However, we’re truly sorry that certain aspects of your trip, particularly your arrival experience and moments during the tour, left you feeling unsupported.

We completely understand that arriving in a busy international airport alone, especially in an unfamiliar country, can be daunting. While separate flight arrangements sometimes mean different transfer logistics, we regret that this wasn’t communicated more effectively, and we sincerely apologise for any stress this caused. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the guide’s attentiveness. Our goal is always to provide a seamless and comfortable experience for all our guests, and we will certainly pass on your comments to ensure our guides are more mindful of solo travellers in the future.

Your insights are invaluable, and we will use them to improve the support we offer, particularly for those travelling independently. If you choose to book with us again, we’d love the opportunity to provide a more reassuring experience from start to finish.

Thank you again for your honest review, Kay, and we’re so pleased that the overall tour and your fellow guests made it a memorable trip.

Best wishes,
Harrison

Best trip ever.

Could not speak more highly of our trip to India. Our guide (Sanjay) was helpful, organized, knowledgeable and went out of his way to ensure every individual was catered for. Every day was packed with fun, adventure, surprises and excitement. We feel as though we have seen and experienced all the things you would hope to see on a short (13 day) trip to India. Taj Mahal, Tigers, elephants, snake charmers, train rides, tut tut rides, shopping, temples, forts and much more. The accommodation was perfect at every city. Hope to return to explore more of this wonderful country.
Ray and Margy.

Learn how real tour companies look after there traveller

You really need to travel with a real travel company eg, APT OR AAT KINGS.
a tour guide on board be nice in case things go belly up.
Times, etc bus leave person behind in hotel when they not answer phone or door ...could be in need of help or dead. Second tour should have knowledge of places travelling to not bus driver.
Get porters to collect luggage take to rooms and return luggage to bus when leaving accommodation.
Lots of older need this.
Bus travels not explained how long journey is.
Breakfast boxes.
Best leave out.
Where's meet n greet night ???.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review regarding your recent holiday experience, and my apologies for taking as long as I have to get back to you.

It is very concerning to hear that you had such a negative experience while on your holiday, as that is certainly not what we want or expect for our passengers and not the response I have previously had from our Murder Mystery holiday events. Hopefully when we have a chat later this week I am able to further understand your concerns and assist you in resolving them.

Imagine Holidays left nothing to chance on our recent holiday on the Queen Elizabeth to Singapore cruise. They were always available when required and were very friendly and obliging.

Thank you for taking the time to reach out and provide your review, and that is very concerning to hear that you have not experienced our normal excellent level of service. Unfortunately, from the detail you have provided me here I have been unable to locate your holiday reservation. As well, when I reached out to you earlier this month to request some more information you haven't gotten back to me.

If you are able to provide me with some more concrete information on how your holiday experience has been unhelpful, I can certainly take that further to make whatever corrections are necessary.

SHIMLA EXPRESS & INDIA'S GOLDEN…

SHIMLA EXPRESS & INDIA'S GOLDEN TRIANGLE
What a wonderful tour. We chose the tour that was hosted by Kay McGrath. We had a wonderful knowledgeable national tour guide by the name of Yadou. I have been on many packaged tours but this was the first overseas holiday with Imagine Holidays Australia. A big shout out to our National Guide who stayed with us from start to finish. He gave us just enough information at our monument visits and allowed us free time to explore with the information he gave us. He was very professional and friendly and dealt with all matters in a confidential and realistic manner....always mindful of his clients. We always felt in competent hands when out and about in the colorful, sometimes chaotic cities of India. The tour was more than I could have "imagined"....a great team that shared with us their beautiful country. The hotels were all first class providing great dining options during our stays. We only had a limited number on tour - 20, so the bus was very comfortable. We did spend a lot of time travelling from city to city. There were many highlights...lovely dining options....far too many to mention...but the one that stands out is our "surprise" location on the top of the world in Shimla. (Well, it certainly felt like it). Waiting for us was a music and dance group, wine and cake. We enjoyed a wonderful morning overlooking the foothills of the Himalayas while dancing and mixing with the local folk....it truly was a memorable morning....very very special. Thank you Imagine, you got it right for us.

It’s wonderful to know that Kay McGrath’s hosted tour, alongside your exceptional National Guide Yadou, made your journey through India so enriching. A knowledgeable and professional guide can truly elevate a trip, and it’s great to hear that Yadou struck the perfect balance—offering insightful information while allowing you the freedom to explore at your own pace. His professionalism, attentiveness, and ability to navigate the vibrant energy of India clearly made a lasting impression, ensuring you always felt in safe and capable hands.

Your kind words about the hotels and dining options are much appreciated—we take great care in selecting first-class accommodations to provide comfort and culinary delights that enhance the travel experience. We’re also thrilled that the intimate group size made for a more relaxed and enjoyable journey, with plenty of space to unwind as you travelled from city to city.

The special moment in Shimla sounds absolutely magical! We love curating unique and unexpected experiences, and it’s heartwarming to hear that the stunning backdrop, traditional music and dance, and the warm hospitality of the locals created such a treasured memory for you.

What a great company!

What a great company to deal with. Everything was so easy and they provided all the information needed, when it was required.
We were looked after, on our transfers, by lovely people who were so helpful and easy to talk to. A big surprise on the flight home was that they had given us an upgraded deal instead of the basic flight package that we expected!
Thoroughly impressed with them, and recommend them!
