Customer Reviews

Alison and the team are really friendly and service is exceptional.

★★★★★

Alison and the team always looks after us & get the best deal. That's why we return again & again. All the hassle taken away, and we've compared what we paid to friends who have done it all themselves - hardly any difference in price (BUT, we are always ATOL protected).

Alison at Bakewell Travel made our dreams come true today, we have been waiting over 2 years to see our children in Australia and Alison made it possible. She put 100 and 10% effort in today to get us the flight we wanted and could afford, she was in contact with us with all the answers to our queries, obviously alot of people are wanting to see family in Australia so we never thought it would happen but it has!! We can't thank, praise and recommend Bakewell travel enough. Thank you
