What the customers say... I was astounded at the quality of visitors to both shows. The guests who visited the Go2Tanzania stand had a genuine interest in the destinations we promote and we have taken bookings from the show which is excellent Go2Tanzania We have exhibited at the show for many years now and are very pleased with the exposure that we get both at the show and with additional promotional opportunities. The organisers are very proactive. Keytel
We have exhibited at Destinations London for many years, but the numbers and quality of visitor at this year’s event was perhaps the best we’ve seen. The show allows us to use our specialist, first-hand knowledge of 20 years to perfectly profile the unique diversity that a holiday in Seychelles can offer to this well-informed and welltravelled audience. Owen Davies, Commercial Director, Elite Vacations – Seychelles
The show was a real success and had a good quality of customers who were interested in the travel industry. We were really pleased with the amount there was to be involved in and a great show to be at. Dragoman A well put on show with a really varied range of exhibitors - high quality visitors. We will be back. Cruise America & Canada RV Rentals
Visitor Feedback I would not book my holiday without the advice I get at the Destinations show.
An extremely versatile show that gives you great ideas about travel and everything else around it.
For someone who loves travel the show is great fun! You have expert advice on any trips / holidays you may be considering at your fingertips & end up adding places to your list that you haven’t considered! It’s informative & fun! Can’t wait for next year’s show!!
Loved it, pure travel inspiration!
The best travel show by far - I never miss it!
As a frequent traveller, this is my essential show every year.
We came looking for inspiration, found it, and are now looking forward to our adventure in a Country we had never considered visiting.
A wonderful few hours browsing the world! It’s a wonderful and informative Show. Love everything about it and wouldn’t want to miss it.
Great show for inspiration. Thoroughly recommended.
Inspirational and informative, the show achieves the difficult mix of making the world both bigger yet more accessible. The Times presents Destinations: The Holiday & Travel Show inspires me to travel to places I’ve only dream’t of! Very good selection of exhibitors. You would be hard pushed not to find something of interest.
