Great to work with Sharon from Flat Beds. She gave us options, advice and we ended up booking a river cruise. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend Flat Beds.Posted on S scurbsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I booked my Finland trip through Flatbeds because they had flights cheaper than competitors. It was really easy to talk to both branches, holidays and flights. I had used flatbeds previously for my US trip, and that was also very easy to do. As for Sharon and Alex, thank you, you made my decision easy.Posted on denise burnsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Always quick to respond to my queries and they are based in South Australia; can't ask for more.Posted on Susan ConollyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

We booked an Emerald Cruise in September 2025, to travel May 2026 I apologise for the late feedback but once it was done I filed it away for a while and have just brought it out again as it's getting closer now and noticed I haven't completed this!! All our enquiries and subsequent bookings were with Tour & Cruise Specialist, Sharon Griffin of Flatbeds. Her knowledge of European cruises was exceptional with a wealth of experience. She was always pleasant to deal with and nothing was too much travel!! Thankyou very much Sharon!!!!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
