Trip to Palma City for 60th birthday celebrations
Wanted to book a special trip away for my 60th birthday coming up in February. It's also my best friends 60th in April.
I had seen Samantha Bowman had posted holidays through Hays Travel on Facebook. I thought I would message her to see if she could help.
So pleased i did! Samantha was so helpful and knowledgeable. She found me a package deal and went through everything with me. I was happy to book and cannot wait to visit Palma City soon.
Will definitely contact Samantha for any future holidays. She took the stress out of booking.
Would definitely recommend.
Thankyou!!
