From the first conversation with Sarah to booking our very own personalised & private tour, we have only received the highest standard of communication, effort and assistance. I cannot praise the efficiency of Sarah's communication enough. Sarah has 'listened' to what we were after regarding our own personal Puglia itinerary, experiences, tour requests and has fulfilled them perfectly. We had no hesitation in booking immediately and are filled with confidence and excitement to go on our holiday. We look forward to the ongoing expert assistance from Sarah and the team at Flat Beds Tour. Janet and GerryPosted on Pat HeaslipTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We always find Flat Beds extremely helpful. In the last few months Sharon has finalised our Egypt tour and did a great job providing advice and sorting out a European River cruise for 2027. Jodie managed our flights to Rome and Cairo. With the gulf war affecting flight costs and availability, she found us an affordable option on Oman Air. The booking has been changed a couple of times to accommodate flight changes and other airline issues. As usual, Jodie handled this efficiently and effectively. I highly recommend FB to anyone who is planning a trip, especially if it is complex. They have organised a lot of our travel in the last few years and have never let us down.Posted on Tina PupelloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
