Rapid Response

I wanted a quick response so as to make a decision and look at prices. Before making my decision I contacted another organisation. They made one call which I missed. Than sent an email telling me they had looked at my request and attached nothing. Charter not only responded, I got a breakdown, email, phone call, my preference to book my seats straight away. He also confirmed all my details within the same night and this made me feel confident in making my booking with them. Excellent service and theme park tickets explained and added.

Responsive, friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Everything was organised to suit my requirements with expertise and efficiency. As reliable and helpful as always. Charter Travel find all the opportunities, places and organise everything, all I have to do is choose which I prefer.

Sri Lanka and the Maldives

This is our second trip booked through Gerard at Charter travel, India last year and Sri Lanka this year. Again the trip was everything we wanted. We went with Gerard’s advice on what to do and see and it was amazing from start to finish. Thankyou Gerard

Aidan at Charter Travel

Aidan at Charter Travel was absolutely fantastic in arranging our recent holiday. From the very first call, he took the time to understand exactly what my wife and I were looking for and came back with options that suited us perfectly. Every detail was handled with care, and the whole process felt effortless on our end. The trip itself was seamless, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend Aidan for anyone wanting a stress‑free, well‑organised holiday.

Florida booking for Disney.

Dealt with Peter again for booking our family trip to Disney Florida. Second time he has helped us and must say he is extremely polite and helpful. Very knowledgable about everything Disney. Nothing is too much bother. Very quick at answering emails and gathering information. Got us a great deal. Would highly recommend booking through Peter

Please go to Sri Lanka!!

We travelled to Sri Lanka and the Maldives in April. We booked through Gerard who expertly guided us with our booking. I can honestly say the holiday was fabulous from start to finish. The hotels were all amazing and when I contacted Gerard with reservations about flying through Dubai with the ongoing conflict he quickly sorted us with new direct flights from London. Sri Lanka was so much more than we imagined and the guide we spent the week with was brilliant. One week was not long enough and we intend to go back! When we do return we would definitely book with Charter Travel again. We have used them several times before and they are fantastic to deal with. The Maldives was also beautiful. We stayed on Kuredu and found there was lots to occupy us. My husband isn’t a great sunbather so we were able to golf, play tennis, pool and paddle. The water was beautiful and swimming with turtles definitely ticked off another item on my bucket list!! Thanks for a great trip and many memories!!!

Perfect tailor made honeymoon

Okay this might be a long one. The TL:DR is: if you want a VIP experience in Sri Lanka, talk to Gerard. For more detail read on.
I had always wanted to go to the Maldives for my honeymoon. My husband to be was not so excited about the idea of lounging on beaches and swimming, so we looked at two centre holidays. We found that one of the common places to add to Maldives was Sri-Lanka. We both love wildlife, so the idea of elephants, leopards, monkeys etc was very enticing.
We looked at a few travel agents and they didn't seem to offer a whole package deal with lots of different excursions, and they were expensive.
We eventually came across Charter and Gerard, who is the expert on the area, offered a fully planned out itinerary to get the most out of Sri Lanka, and a selection of Maldives hotels. This was fully flexible, so when we said we wanted to add in a river trip, or take out a temple, there was no issue whatsoever, and the price was better than anywhere else we had seen.
I was a little dubious as I had never heard of Charter, but when we arrived we were immediately picked up by our driver, who stayed with us for the entire time. He drove us around in an air conditioned vehicle and took us to a variety of places, where he showed good knowledge, explaining religious customs, history and wildlife. Each place we had private tours rather than a big group. Every hotel we stayed in was beautiful, a wide variety of food, great air conditioning, views and pools, and the staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful.
The Madu River Safari is one of the most beautiful sceneries I have ever experienced, and I highly recommend Yala, Udawalawa, Ella etc.
We then went onto the Maldives for a week and there are no words to describe how much of a paradise this is. Again a beautiful resort, great food, drinks, pools, watersports, views, beaches and staff who are out of this world.
I believe Charter have experts in all areas of the world so I will definitely be looking to them in future for holidays.

Honolulu …..Maui

Ok, this is purely about the booking experience.
Next year we have two big birthdays (70) and near enough 50 years married so we wanted a special holiday, I’ll be honest and say we did look elsewhere first as I wanted to chat to a travel agent and get their advice.
The holiday is to be in Hawaii, the reason we decided on Charter holidays over the others wasn’t about price it was about Linda, oh my this lady knows her stuff, we explained what we wanted and she put together a great package ……..she advised us on dates we should look at for whale watching and visits she thought we would like on a twin island break.
She advised on the twin island idea , the use of a hire car and the upgrade to premium for the flight.
She advised on the local charges at the hotels ….
Basically went over and above to cover all aspects of this dream trip.
Linda explained fully about the booking process….if the holiday goes as well as the booking process we are onto a winner.

Absolutely Great Service

I had never used charter travel before so was sceptical when i found the exact holiday £4000 cheaper with them but i checked the reviews checked certificates and all seemed good so we went ahead and booked. Luke our travel agent was super helpful every step of the way he answered any questions that came up super quickly and was always really responsive adding things or helping me in any way.

Charter travel for the personal touch

We are booking a family holiday to Florida for 2027 and have thus far received top notch service from CharterTravel.
Andy listened to our requirements then provided a number of options for us to choose. Flight, villa and car hire all sorted.
There has since been an issue with the villa which was addressed quickly and an upgrade provided.
Now just looking forward to our holiday next year.
Highly recommend Charter Travel for the personal touch.

Road Trip

We have been booking holidays with Richard at Charter Travel for several years. And have always had excellent service.
My husband and I decided to do something different this year. We contacted Richard and told him what airport we wanted to fly into and out of and asked if he could fill in the gaps and true to form he delivered an amazing road trip for us. His experience within the travel company is second to none. Excellent customer service, professional throughout. And we can’t wait for this holiday.
Thank you again Richard.

Fabulous travel agency

We've been booking our holidays through Charter Travel for almost 20 years now and have always been very impressed with their helpfulness, expertise, friendliness and professionalism every time. They have always been very competitive with their prices, saving us £k over the years. We've dealt directly with Danny for most of the years and he is very patient with us, also ensuring everything is exactly as we want. Would most definitely recommend, and have done several times over the years.

We used charter travel for the first time…

We used charter travel for the first time today to book our holiday, from a recommendation from a friend.
Jason and Jess was extremely knowledgeable about the different places we wanted to go to, and gave brilliant advice. They both made the experience comfortable and stress free, answering even the most simple questions. They also wasnt pushy which also made the experience that much nicer. Thank you to you both, we look forward to our holiday and seeing you soon :)

A Vegas dream!

I have been using Charter Travel for many years, and have never been let down.
We have just returned from Las Vegas and Death Valley , and as usual everything was smooth from flights, to car hire, to our resort booking.
Richard has never let us down and Charter Travel will continue to be our go to travel agents.
Brilliant!
Go on, give them a try, you will not be disappointed.
