I booked my first ever travel…
I booked my first ever travel experience with Helen, in Queen Street, Cardiff Branch to Charlottetown PEI Canada. She was helpful and kind, as these things I didn't know what to expect and how they work. And everything seemed to fit in well. The only small gripe was the travel time in my second stop was a mear 6 hour wait in the early hours of the morning! She said I could of upgraded but didn't realise at the time.
Will certainly use these again if I book a holiday.

Excellent knowledge and advice
I had very detailed and friendly advice, which was helpful as this is the first cruise I have ever booked. All my questions were answered and it was good to know that the advisor had his own personal experience of cruise holidays.

Good Morning Mrs Pillar
Thank you for taking the time to submit feedback in regards to your recent experience at Hays Travel Cardiff.
I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the final cost of your holiday however we did have to realise the previous held option and re cost the package due to one passenger not being able to travel. Unfortunately during this process the air fair did increase and also the solo occupancy room would have increased the cost for the party.
We always aim to provide the highest level of customer satisfaction however we have no control over live costings but will always try our best with price.
I hope this explains things more clearly and we will be on hand throughout your holiday journey with us to assist with anything you may need.
Kind Regards
Helen - Branch Manager
