What our customers say
Our 'Dreams of Tahiti' Cruise aboard the Windstar Star Breeze has been the best cruise we ever experienced. The destinations, the ship, the staff and the dining couldn't be faulted by us at any time. Prior to our departure, from home, the ETG Liaison agent Lisa was outstanding in her commitment to every detail and ensuring we understood everything of what we were to about to experience. Lisa was very patient with all our requests and her itinerary presentation was first rate. What a great holiday experience !!!
Thank you Entire Travel and especially Lisa. Our Tahiti holiday was amazing from start to finish. From the time of booking until we left, the whole experience was so easy and thorough.. Anytime I rang to ask a question,Lisa and staff were beyond helpful. Once we arrived in Tahiti, the transfers went without a hitch, they were there each and every time, once we arrived on Moorea it was beyond paradise. The Manava Resort was more than we imagined, it was incredible. We loved every second. Thank you Lisa and The Entire Travel Groip and Tahiti Nui.. I will happily recommend you.. Many Thanks Vicki B.. Hunter Valley NSW..☺️
A big thank you to Entire Travel Group with a special thanks to Alison. We had mostly organised our own overseas holidays in the past but being unfamiliar with Canada we thought we would approach a travel agency. Thinking the travel agency would help us we were surprised to be handed a couple of booklets and told to go away and come back when we knew what we wanted to do. One of the booklets was Entire Travel Group so after viewing what was available we decided to contact you directly. That decision changed the Entire course of our traveling experience, excuse the pun. We sent an email to the Entire Group and over the next few days had spoken to Alison who listened, was knowledgeable and responsive to our requests, questions and doubts about travelling to Canada. At the conclusion we had holiday package which we could have only dreamed about. Alison and the team worked wonders and we were extremely happy with a holiday that was brilliant.
This was our second time using Entire Travel to arrange and book a holiday. Their service is wonderful and Lisa went above and beyond to make this experience so memorable. We chose the Windstar "Tantalizing Tuamotu Islands and Beautiful Bora Bora" cruise, with a short stay in Papeete before and after the cruise component. All flights, transfers and hotel accommodation were seamless. This tour was faultless and next level perfection on a top tier cruise line. Thank you Lisa for allowing us to experience paradise in style.
