Cruise
We visited your Rayleigh Travel Agent and the lady there was called Coryann, she was more than helpful and made our visit very worthwhile. We booked a 14 day cruise to the Canary Islands. Coryann organised everything for us, including parking & insurance.
We are very grateful to her as everything has been organised for us.

Booked Our First Cruise
David at the Rayleigh branch was very knowledgeable & helpful. He was able to provide us with so much really useful information which allowed us to make an informed decision about booking our holiday. David was really friendly & very thorough. Would definitely book through Hays again. All the staff in the Rayleigh branch are welcoming & friendly.
