WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT US
All of these reviews are taken from the impartial website Reviews.co.uk from real, verified customers in June and July. Discover more of these by visiting Reviews.co.uk and searching for Cruise118, or take a look at our social media pages for further reviews. I asked a couple of agents to quote for the cruise I was interested in. Lauren was always the first to get back and without me asking checked flight price differences if I travelled on different days etc. She was efficient but also friendly and made the booking process easy. I would ask for her again. I believe the price for the package was competitive against other quotes received. – Mr. Hyde
Very Knowledgeable young lady - went out of her way to be helpful. I just hope the ship and holiday are as good! Looking forward to it. Price excellent too. Hope there will be more with this company! – Mrs. Clark
