We called into the Carlisle office to enquire about a Norwegian cruise. We were acknowledged immediately and sat down with Bethan. She was very knowledgeable about the cruise and was a great help. We are now looking forward to February 2027!

Friendly, professional service and personal touch.

Friendly, professional service and personal touch. It costs the same as booking online, but the personal touch really helps navigate the booking process. Extra benefits include help with the online check-in, explanations of everything that will happen and a free 100 Euros when you change money with them. Takes all of the stress out of booking and keeps Carlisle's city centre alive.

I dealt with Olivia (Liv) who was lovely and very helpful. When I told her what I needed, she went out of her way to make sure she found it and then explained everything about it and then made sure we were checked in properly as I’m not good with tech!
On the whole it was excellent service. Well done 👍

Cruise booking

We went to check out a cruise we had seen advertised. Martin established all our requirements and found us the perfect cabin at a great price, including coach travel to and from the cruise. Excellent service.
