A warm welcome as soon as we arrived
A warm welcome as soon as we arrived, this makes such a difference to just being left standing around. Chris was as helpful as always, nothing seems too much bother.

Good job well done
As usual Chris was efficient, helpful and good fun. He has booked so many holidays for us that he has a good memory and understanding of our needs. He is more like ke a friend than our travel agent. He always looks after us. He still hasn’t had that magic button installed the Ryde office. You know, the one on the tv that immediately transports you to your destination. We live in hope😄

Thank you so much for your amazing 5⭐ review!
It’s always a pleasure helping you plan your holidays, and I’m genuinely delighted to hear you feel so well looked after.
As for that magic teleportation button… I promise I’m still lobbying hard for it at the Ryde office! 😄 Until then, I’ll keep doing everything I can to make the journey as smooth and enjoyable as the destination.
Thanks again for your continued trust and support, it means a lot.
Best wishes,

Second cruise booked
Second cruise booked. Dealt with Chris both times. Makes the booking stress free and easy. Has vast amounts of knowledge but only gives you what you need so you don't feel your brain is in overload. Everyone in the branch is friendly and helpful. I have no idea why people still spend hours trawling on their phones when they can walk in, sit and have all the techy stuff done for you 😁. My only observation is there doesn't appear to be a customer coffee machine to me feel extra special 🤔🤣..... keep up the good work. Thank you

That’s such a lovely review, thank you so much for taking the time to share it! We’re thrilled to hear you’ve booked your second cruise with us and that Chris made the whole process stress free and straightforward again.
It also means a lot to hear your kind words about the rest of the team, we always aim to create a friendly, welcoming space where you can relax while we take care of all the “techy stuff” for you.
And as for the customer coffee machine… we’re loving that suggestion! 🤔🤣 We might have to see what we can do to make that “extra special” experience complete next time you pop in. Kind regards Ryde Hays Travel
