Hayes and Jarvis: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Have just completed planning and booking our trip of a life time to South America. It was both exciting and simple with Beth, our consultant, fully understanding our brief and designing a superb tailored itinerary, which we reviewed with her twice making a few minor changes and selecting our choices of hotels from the options provided. As stated both exciting and simple!
Fantastic experience: I used Hayes and Jarvis for a road trip in USA over Easter and had the pleasure of working with Beth who was extremely knowledgeable and put together a great itinerary, we had the best time! So when thinking of travelling to Japan next year, I had no hesitation contacting Hayes and Jarvis again. Beth very kindly put me in touch with Andy who has been both patient and knowledgeable in equal parts. His knowledge of Japan is second to none and we really feel he has put together the perfect itinerary for us. We are now excitedly counting down the days to go! I would highly recommend them!
Dear Annette, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We're glad to hear that both Beth and Andy helped create such memorable experiences for your trips. It’s great that you felt confident returning to Hayes & Jarvis for your Japan plans, and we're so happy to know that Andy's expertise has helped craft the perfect itinerary for you. We can’t wait for you to embark on your upcoming adventure, and we appreciate your recommendation! Warm regards, Jorge A Guest Relations Executive - Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: Bethany put together an exciting Costa Rica package, and was always fast and helpful when dealing with questions. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
Dear Russell, Thank you for your kind words. We’re so glad to hear that Bethany created an exciting Costa Rica package that met your expectations, and that her responsiveness made the planning process smooth for you. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to help you plan more unforgettable trips in the future! Warm regards, Jorge A Guest Relations Executive - Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: As a family of four adults, we decided to take a family holiday to Japan. However, after looking online, we felt completely overwhelmed with the options of where to travel, and what places to visit. So we contacted various travel agents to look at their itineraries, unfortunately most of the travel agents weren't flexible on the itineraries therefore we were unable to personalise our travel. We contacted Hayes and Jarvis and were put in contact with Andy Finlay and he was absolutely brilliant. He understood the brief - 4 adults all expecting different experiences from Japan. We had about 3 or 4 online meetings where Andy wanted to know about us and what we wanted from the trip, each meeting we discussed different hotel options, locations, trips and agendas until we all agreed on the same itinerary and it was perfect it was tailor made to meet all of our needs. Nothing was too much trouble, he really took the time to understand us and he was very quick to respond to any questions It also really helped that he had a vast knowledge of Japan having visited many times. The holiday ran as smooth as clockwork, really well organised, all the travel booked, tickets provided in advance, the app and the folder were brilliant with so much useful information to hand. We felt safe and knew we had back up of an issue arose. It allowed us to enjoy the adventure without the stress of having to book trips, travel etc.
Dear Sandra, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad to hear that Andy’s personalized approach helped create a perfect itinerary for your family. It’s great that he took the time to really understand each person’s preferences, ensuring everyone’s needs were met. We’re thrilled that the holiday ran smoothly and that all the details were handled seamlessly, allowing you to focus on enjoying the adventure. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we can’t wait to help you plan your next unforgettable journey! Warm regards, Jorge A Guest Relations Executive - Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: Amazing advice for our bespoke tour of Japan from Andy Finlay From the initial enquiry through to finalising the holiday, we have been amazed at the professionalism, knowledge and friendliness of our Travel Consultant Andy Finlay. He has helped us immensely through from deciding to visit Japan to tailoring a bespoke tour for us. Andy has been brilliantly responsive and helpful in advising us in planning our holiday, which we are really looking forward to. We will definitely be using Hays & Jarvis going forward and Andy has been amazing to deal with, we couldn't have asked for anyone better. Thank you !
Dear Jeremy, Thank you for sharing such wonderful feedback. We're thrilled to hear that Andy’s expertise, responsiveness, and friendly approach made your planning process smooth and enjoyable. It’s great that he was able to help craft a bespoke tour of Japan that you’re excited about. We’re so grateful for your trust in Hayes & Jarvis, and we look forward to assisting with your future travels! Warm regards, Jorge A Guest Relations Executive - Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: My family and I recently got back from the most amazing trip in Japan, organised by the amazing team at Hayes and Jarvis. The trip was created and made for us but Andy who throughout the whole process went above and beyond for us. He listened to everything we said we wanted to do and put this into a tailor made itinerary with places and things to see that we hadn’t even thought of. He was so readily available and was always happy to tweak and change any bits to suit our needs. The holiday would not have been the same without all his amazing advice and pictures from his trip to Japan! He really felt like a friend after the year of planning and excitement. He even gave us recommendations whilst we were in Japan via email! We can’t thank him enough. Andy you were the best! Special shoutout to Sharon who was a star too!
Negative experience: Very messy. I booked our trip with Hayes and Jarvis and, upon signing our contract and having paid for it in full, they handed us over to a trip co-ordinator who happened to work for their sister company Enchanting Travels. All of a sudden, we received emails from this company without any explanation as to why we were travelling with this company and not HJ. Many hiccups have been happening since the handover: code for choosing our seats on our outgoing flights not working, two separate bookings for our flights instead of one booking for all of us, no passwords for logging in the travel app, travel app containing incomplete and incorrect flight times, no information about visas until requested for it, etc. I do hope they make their best efforts to provide us with an adequate level of customer service given that we have paid a premium price for our holiday. I will write again for an update.
Fantastic experience: This is our third trip with H&J Western Canada, Australia and Eastern Canada. We have upsets like bush fires involving change of itinerary at the last minute, no drama just sorted. great service. All our reps have been great and thanks Beth for sorting things out for us this time.
Fantastic experience: We’ve just booked our honeymoon with Beth - she’s been a superstar at listening to our needs, making changes, adapting our trip but also recommending and suggesting some great ideas. We CANNOT wait to go & are super grateful we’ve got a great team to help us have the best time ☀️
Fantastic experience: We used H&J in 2019 was excellent and holiday was amazing. Always promised to return to India . October 2024 contacted HJ again, Chris Cook was faultless, friendly and helpful. He listened to our type of holiday we were looking for to complete South India trip, He put appropriate suggestions together and solved any issues or concerns. Holiday booked. Highly recommend. Service and attention to detail as good as in 2019. Looking forward to holiday now in 2025. Massive thanks Chris Cook
Fantastic experience: This is a review for my Travel Consultant Jas Bhela who has put together our itinerary for our honeymoon in China. Jas is very knowledgeable about travelling in China, having visited recently himself. Despite speaking to multiple travel agencies, we went with Hayes & Jarvis as Jas was able to give us special tips and additional information that the other providers did not. He also booked us special/more unusual experiences that were not in the standard packages offered by the others. He also spoke passionately about his travels in China which was motivating. We are very much looking forward to our honeymoon next year. Thank you Jas!
Fantastic experience: Another holiday arranged for us by James Brown. He has the patience of a saint, changing our requirements at the last minute.A 4 centre trip to Vietnam. All the hotels we stayed in were perfect, Hanoi, Hoi An and Saigon. We chose a 2 night cruise in Halong bay opting for a small boat which was great David our guide was very good. Sarnanku was great again checking us innon flights and aranging late hoftel check outs. His team were great as well, Binh in Hanoi, Vu in Hoi An and Phu in Saigon all sering us through to check in for our flights. Hayes and Jarvis take all the stress out of going on holiday, just as it should be. Darren and Sarah.
Fantastic experience: Jas Bhela was fantastic at helping us arrange a great itinerary for us. Good personal service, listened to our needs / requirements and tailor made something to suit us
Fantastic experience: Amazing service throughout, definitely recommend if you're looking for a tailored trip somewhere exotic.
Fantastic experience: Our multi centre trip to Thailand was booked with the help of Emma who was very professional & provided choices for accommodation. When some choices were unavailable (a very late booked holiday for next month) Emma quickly made contact to suggest alternatives & amend our itinerary. Would definitely recommend H & J to tailor make a holiday.
Fantastic experience: We booked a tailor made holiday with Emma Price who was brilliant. She responded on a timely basis to all our questions, updated the itinerary many times over to tailor exactly to our needs and was consistently friendly and professional to deal with over the past few months. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: I have just booked a trip to Kenya using Hayes and Jarvis. The travel consultant that helped me with the planning and booking process was Jan Louw and I could not have been happier. He listened very carefully to my long list of wishes and gave me a proposal with options that perfectly matched my requests and requirements. He kept in regular contact with me over the weeks it took to finalise and confirm choices. Fabulous service!
Fantastic experience: My experience of using Hayes and Jarvis was simply excellent. My wife and I trusted them to arrange our first ever trip to Kenya to enjoy a safari experience. From Chris Cook, who arranged a perfect itinerary for us, to Evans Alala who coordinated all local aspects of our time in Kenya and addressed any queries we had in country, the service can’t be faulted. A special mention has to be given to our drivers/guides, Richard (in Lake Elmentaita), and Patrick (in the Maasai Mara). They were both excellent, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs during the wildlife drives. We’ll definitely be making a return trip. I’d strongly recommend using Hayes and Jarvis if you’re thinking of a tailor made travel experience or holiday.
Dear Tony, We greatly appreciate your positive feedback regarding your recent trip to Kenya with Hayes and Jarvis. It's truly heartening to hear that we were able to provide you and your wife with an outstanding safari experience. Your recognition of Chris Cook's efforts in crafting the perfect itinerary and Evans Alala's seamless coordination of local aspects of your trip is highly valued. We're also thrilled to hear about your wonderful experiences with our drivers/guides, Richard and Patrick. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us on Google Reviews. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we're delighted to have earned your trust as your preferred travel provider. We also wanted to extend an invitation: If you have any photos from your trip that you'd like to share with us here on Google, we would be thrilled to see them! Your images could help inspire other travelers looking to embark on their own adventures. If you have any further feedback or if there's anything else we can assist you with in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out. Warm regards, Maria, Guest Relations, Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: Magical tour of India and Goa. Excellent quality and value for money I had decided on a tailored tour of India and beach holiday in Goa. I was put in contact with Jasdeep Bhelaan, the India consultant for Hayes and Jarvi, who met all my expectations in terms of knowledge, skills expertise but also trust, confidence and commitment to ensure that all my preferences and wishes were realised and I got my dream holiday I had aspired to. Just as importantly I got a very personalised high quality package and excellent value for money. It was challenging because of my requirements at a time when the resources and accommodation I identified were at a premium and under great demand. However Jasdeep was undeterred and indefatigable in his determination to ensure all my wishes. Jasdeep’ s commitment and expertise was so commendable and priceless. A great ambassador for a great organisation, Hayes and Harvis.
Dear Andy, Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience of your tailored tour of India and beach holiday in Goa with us. We are delighted to hear that Jasdeep exceeded your expectations and played a crucial role in creating your dream holiday. It's heartening to know that Jasdeep demonstrated not only knowledge and expertise but also trust, confidence, and commitment to ensuring that all your preferences and wishes were realized. We understand that planning a trip with specific requirements, especially during high demand periods, can be challenging, and we appreciate Jasdeep's determination and dedication in meeting your expectations. We are thrilled that you received a very personalized, high-quality package that provided excellent value for money. Jasdeep's commitment and expertise truly make him a great ambassador for Hayes and Jarvis. If there are any additional details or if you have further inquiries, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for choosing Hayes and Jarvis, and we hope your magical tour of India and Goa exceeds all your expectations. Best regards, Maria, Guest Relations, Hayes and Jarvis
Fantastic experience: Chris at Hayes and Jarvis has been incredibly helpful and patient whilst getting my holiday right for us. He has given good advice throughout and cannot wait to go! Will definitely use Hayes and Jarvis again for future holidays
Fantastic experience: My partner and I have just booked a trip to Singapore and Bali with Hayes and Jarvis this is the first time of booking with them. We had a brilliant experience as the travel consultant Chris Cook was amazing - he listened to where we wanted to go and he came up with some brilliant hotels and ideas of trips that we might want to do while out there....making an absolutely fantastic itinerary - he answered any questions quickly - this was a brilliant service from Chris and would highly recommend Hayes and Jarvis will definitely be using them again.
Fantastic experience: We have just booked a dream trip to Argentina and Brazil. Bethany was extremely helpful, understood exactly what we wanted to do from the start and organised an amazing trip for us. She was very responsive to questions and the few alterations that we wanted to make and we can’t wait until next February!
Fantastic experience: We have had a brilliant booking experience with Hayes and Jarvis. Having booked previously with another, far more expensive agent!, we have found Chris (our main point of contact) to be superb. He has answered every question, almost immediately. All the information was sent through so quickly and any amendments we requested were done with no fuss. He seems to work all hours! Once booked the excellent service has continued (unlike some companies we have had experience of). The point of contact in Sri Lanka has emailed us already and, has advised us they will be our personal concierge 24/7. Brilliant! Thank you so much - we are so looking forward to our holiday with you.
Fantastic experience: Thanks to Andy for arranging the perfect trip for me, including anything and everything I needed! Top guy!
Fantastic experience: I have just booked a trip to South Africa using Hayes and Jarvis. During the planning and booking process, I was fortunate to have the help, support and guidance of Beth Coombs as my travel consultant. She kept in regular contact with me over the weeks it took for us to build the final proposal for the trip and she was always dependable, patient and attentive, answering all my questions and making the necessary changes after all of our planning calls. Nothing was too much trouble for Beth - highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Our Hayes and Jarvis booking experience with Bethany Coombs has been exceptional, so informative and responsive to all our questions; she has gone above and beyond to create the trip of our dreams for us; she has not been pushy but was always available to make adjustments and answer questions, it has made it a really pleasurable experience, adding to the excitement and given us full confidence in all the arrangements. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Excellent organising of my holiday to Penang and Borneo in two days time. Nothing was too much trouble and I felt like I was getting the best personal attention to my requirements. If my holiday is as good as Bethany that arranged everything for me I will be delighted. Thank you so much for your attention Bethany DiGriffiths
Fantastic experience: Great experience! I contacted Jayes & Jarvis to enquire for a trip to South Africa in October. Thidara looked after me and she has been just amazing! She listened carefully to my requirements and has also been so quick in responding (she answered to my emails within a couple of hours max with several itinerary amendments - giving me two options each time, to fulfil my requests/requirements). She showed in-depth knowledge of the destination I was travelling to, but also provided some extra tips and advice which I found a really nice touch! Thank you Thidara and I will certainly consider Hayes & Jatvis for my next holiday.
Fantastic experience: As I wrote on the Irish site as well, great service, Oliver really helped us through the planning phase of our trip. Amazing communication with answering all our questions throughout the entire process. Very professional, knowledgeable and a seamless process. Cant wait for the trip!
Fantastic experience: Wanting to plan our trip of a lifetime to South Africa, we wasn’t sure where to start. Valentina was an absolute godsend. Talking us through options, listening to what all expectations were, what we wanted to do in the trip. She came back with a virtually perfect itinerary, which is jam packed from Day 1 until our home bound flight. Everything has been organised: flights, transfers, hotels, trips. We are 100% confident this will be an incredible trip with the added reassurance that we have a direct contact 24 hours a day for any queries or issues whilst on the trip. Thank you
Fantastic experience: This will be our second holiday with Hayes & Jarvis. Our first (last year) was to Singapore & Bali which was our honeymoon. Jas gave us some fantastic advice when booking on the best places to stay, what to do when out there. His knowledge was really useful. We are now booking our second holiday with Jas’ guidance. Once again the help and advice offered has been fantastic.
Fantastic experience: First time booking through Hayes and Jarvis. Valentina was very helpful and gave me confidence that I was getting the best holiday options at the best price. Great communication and support. Many Thanks
Fantastic experience: Beth helped us put together a trip of a lifetime to Africa. Super helpful and great knowledge. Nothing was too much trouble to try to accommodate. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Excellent advice from Valentina. I’m planning a big family trip to Africa and I spoke to Valentina for information, she was extremely knowledgeable and gave me some fantastic recommendations. I’m not ready to book just yet but I’m thoroughly impressed and I will definitely be booking my special trip with her and Hayes & Jarvis.
Fantastic experience: I have dealt with Hayes and Jarvis for six years and their commitment is always 100% to ensure your holiday is unforgettable. Both Val and Asha are excellent in ensuring that your trip goes without any hitches. From booking the trip where Val ensured we got the best possible deal to Asha , who was our agent in the Maldives, ensured our vacation went without a hitch and kept in touch to ensure all was well during our stay. I have no hesitation in recommending Hayes and Jarvis and I look forward to booking with them again soon. Thank you once again to everyone for an amazing experience and great memories.
Fantastic experience: My fiancé and I had an excellent experience with Hayes & Jarvis. We would highly recommend their service. We dealt with Beth C, who was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and patient. She has provided us with a honeymoon that we are very much looking forward to. Thank you Beth.
Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend. Saved me time (no long internet searches) and money (we were recommended a less expensive option as it better met our family preferences). The team here in the UK are real experts in their fields, whilst there is a full local team to help out if there are any unforeseen difficulties during the holiday. Great end to end service.
Fantastic experience: My husband and I have booked a holiday of a lifetime to Kenya via Hayes and Jarvis. Thidara has been exceptionally helpful with her suggestions and insights and as a result she has put together a wonderful itinerary. We are so looking forward to our holiday
Fantastic experience: Beth from Hayes and Jarvis created a fantastic itinerary which ticked all the boxes for us. She was dedicated and full of great ideas and suggestions. Really feel like she did everything she could to create a great holiday for us. She stuck to our budget as well. Can’t wait to go now!
Fantastic experience: Thidara, who has organised our trip to Costa Rica was excellent. She listened and took on board exactly what we wanted and answered any questions and queries we had promptly, always calling at the pre arranged time with the answers. Cannot fault her. Obviously, we haven't been on the trip yet, going next February, so I will have to reserve judgement on the over all experience. Zully Briones is now looking after us, as our trip coordinator, who is based in Costa Rica and will now be our point of contact before and during our trip. We have had a "get to know each other" call and she immediately sorted out a query we had. I am sure nearer the time of our holiday, I shall have a few more questions and have more contact with her. I feel very confidant about being in Costa Rica with Zully being on hand 24/7.
Fantastic experience: Fabulous tailor made trip by Hayes and jarvis to costa rica and galapogos. Listened to us and had a perfect itinerary. Brilliant to have a tour manager on whatsapp 24 7 checking in to make sure everything was going to plan. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: We've just booked our 4th holiday with Hayes and Jarvis. Each one has been an adventure but with the safe and secure support of a great team on the ground. We're going back to India - this time to Kerala. Last time we 'did' the Golden Triangle with some extra days in Shimla via the Toy Train. India has amazing architecture, scenery, wildlife and very friendly people. Well worth booking. Our lastest booking was managed by Thidara, one of Hayes & Jarvis' booking agents. She was knowlegable and helpful with some great suggestions to improve our holiday and came up with a really good deal. Can't wait to go!
Fantastic experience: We have had the wonderful Oliver helping us with our future trip to Japan. He has been both prompt and patient with our requests. The experience has made the holiday seem even more exciting...can't wait. Thank you very much Oliver.
Fantastic experience: Just recently booked our dream holiday with James Brown and couldn't have asked for a more friendly, practical service and advice. James listened to our ideas and helped us to put together an amazing holiday. It took 2 or 3 iterations to get there - more because as a couple, we had to find something that worked for both of us in terms of price and experiences. Due to his knowledge of Malaysia, James listened to our scattered thoughts and was able to come up with some suggestions that gave us a mix of culture and nature - it just sounds amazing - something that's been on our bucket list for such a long time. James was patient, guided rather than directed in his suggestions and really was knowledgeable about the destinations we picked. We would definitely recommend James and wouldn't hesitate to book with him again. Thank you so very much James for all the work you put into finding the right holiday for us - we came full circle in the end but we know we have an experience that's going to be something we will remember for the rest of our lives.
Fantastic experience: Chris Cook helped us book our trip to Costa Rica. He was excellent and very professional. He listened closely to our needs & answered all our questions whenever we emailed, phoned or texted him. He gave great suggestions for our travel itinerary and responded very quickly to make sure the flights were as we wanted. Would definitely recommend Chris - thank you!
Fantastic experience: James Brown at Hayes and Jarvis has completed an incredible tour for us. His local knowledge and understanding of the care and attention needed for our father has been exceptional. When we had a change in our circumstance due to health, he has gone over and above. Hugely grateful for such a thoughtful service.
Fantastic experience: Chris Cook helped us put together a trip to Vietnam after I sent in a brief online query. Chris worked over the weekend to design our trip and was super helpful throughout. We had the trip planned in a few days which was much easier than doing all of the research ourselves.
Fantastic experience: This is the first holiday I have booked using Hayes & Jarvis. Chris Cook has been fantastic in creating a comprehensive itinerary to suit the needs of all of our family. His knowledge and experience really shone through and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Chris!
Fantastic experience: Can't thank Mark Larwood enough for all his hard work, we gave him just six weeks to tailor make a holiday to Australia and the middle east, he has put together a fantastic itinerary. We had absolutely no ideas of our own and he has guided us through with trips, hotels, transfers - the lot! GREAT JOB and thank you.
Fantastic experience: Professional & Excellent Service from Thidara Udomritkul We have booked a safari trip to Kenya and Mauritius beach holiday with Hayes & Jarvis. Thidara is so helpful and thoughtful. She listened carefully to our requirements, discussed the details step by step with us, sent draft proposals at the same day. She is so knowledgeable, the itinerary she designed are perfect. We were also impressed with her quick response to the changes we wanted to make. Looking forward to our trips
Fantastic experience: Jas , was our contact for Hayes and Jarvis. He was outstanding, we had various issues, first being covid restrictions, so we had to change dates, which was done very efficiently. Then we changed where we were going, due to Indonesia changing their laws regarding unmarried couples, we moved our holiday to the Maldives with no problem and are now looking forward to our escape in May
Fantastic experience: We have recently booked a holiday to Singapore, Malaysia and Australia with Hayes and Jarvis, with Matthew Doidge as our consultant. This was the resurrection of a trip that we had to cancel 5 years ago. Matthew listened carefully to our plans then worked extremely hard to meet our wishes. He also suggested some alternatives to enhance our experience yet trying to keep within our budget due to significant price increases since 5 years ago. Queries were answered promptly and an exciting itinerary was put together very quickly. Neill and Ruth Thompson.
Fantastic experience: Just returned from 2 weeks in Malaysia. H&J did a superb job: beautiful locations, great hotels and efficient guides and drivers. We felt well looked after every step of the way and recommend this company without hesitation.
Fantastic experience: We were planning a trip to Vietnam and having spoken to other travel companies, contacted Hayes and Jarvis and received a prompt call back from Chris Cook. Chris listened and made note of all of our needs for the trip and created an itinerary that worked for us perfectly. Chris was easily contactable at all times and always replied to queries incredibly quickly. Excellent service from Chris and would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Thidara at Hayes and Jarvis has been brilliant when helping us to plan our trip to Namibia. She always replied promptly and altered the itinerary to suit our needs. We were given lots of information about each lodge, and now have a 'personal concierge' to assist with any further enquiries who will be available 24/7 during our actual trip.
Fantastic experience: A big thank you to Matt Doidge for putting together such a lovely itinerary for our trip to Australia. He’s designed it around the things we knew we wanted to do, plus things he recommended based on our interests. He’s been very responsive to our questions and any changes we wanted to make: nothing has been too much trouble. This is the second time we have used Hayes and Jarvis. The first time was exceptional so we just can’t wait for this holiday now.
Fantastic experience: Just booked a trip to Mauritius with Hayes & Jarvis. Chris Cook helped us through every step of the way, providing advice on the time of year, airlines to use, areas to visit, and was very accomodating in finding us prices from both Hotels that Hayes & Jarvis work with regularly and some that he had to reach out to independently. We have now booked what looks to be an absolutely fantastic trip, could not ask for better service, you're a credit to the company Chris. Thank-you, George & April.
Fantastic experience: This will be my second holiday booked with Hayes and Jarvis. I booked with them to visit the Maldives in November 2018 and I will be going again in March 2023. I have been in contact with a lovely, helpful gentleman called Jasdeep who has done his absolute best to make sure that I have the best holiday that I can. Hayes and Jarvis invest their time with putting together the holiday of your dreams. Their latest concierge service will be a great benefit to me as I will be holidaying solo again and knowing that there is someone available 24/7 will give me peace of mind during my time away. I will highly recommend Hayes and Jarvis and will no doubt be booking a 3rd holiday with them soon !!
Fantastic experience: Jas has been amazing throughout this process of deciding our destination and arranging our itinerary throughout. He gave us sound advice when we were choosing where we were going to go and how best to choose the destination. He has kept us updated regularly with the itinerary and sought out some extras for us along the way. Looking forward to the trip in January and will provide another review on our return.
Fantastic experience: Booked our 4th Luxury Holiday with Hayes and Jarvis and Chris Cook was absolutely brilliant. Helped us so much with destination, hotels, flights, trips, the whole package. Efficient, helpful, knowledgeable, but not pushy. Amazing service as always. Weve had the best holidays with Hayes and wouldn not book anywhere else. The quality is outstanding. Thanks to Chris for all his incredible help and advise. Even on a Sunday he took the time to help. Outstanding!
Fantastic experience: Really great service from Chris who promptly has arranged a tailor made trip to India for us. He came up with ideas and an itinerary based on a very loose plan I’d given him. Not sure what I really wanted and how to fit things in he adapted everything to fit our needs. He also sent me details of a hotel change to check it was okay despite him being on holiday. 5 star service thank you.
Fantastic experience: Booked our dream honeymoon to South Africa and Mauritius with Mark Larwood and couldn't have asked for better service and advice. Mark listened to all of our ideas and put together the perfect package, I felt he really was knowledgeable about the destinations we picked and was able to answer all of our questions. We would definitely recommend Mark and wouldn't hesitate to book with him again.
Fantastic experience: Was discussing a holiday to Malaysia with a few travel agents.. Chris Cook from Hayes & Jarvis was fantastic.. very knowledgeable, professional and responsive to our numerous requests and questions. Excellent customer service, which was the deciding factor for us. Many thanks
Fantastic experience: A massive thank you to Chris Cook who put together our upcoming trip to Singapore and Thailand. He recommended visiting the elephant hills , the experience looks awesome. Despite not being in the office , and on a work trip , he was still happy to assist, answer questions and book our holiday. Thanks Chris, you went above and beyond.
Fantastic experience: We have just booked our family safari holidays for the next summer. Val from Hayes and Jarvis was incredibly helpful and patient, accommodating our specific requirements. I feel the advice received from Val was invaluable when planning our first safari. We have children with severe allergies – Val scheduled our trip to ensure access to an adequate medical facility at all times. We are looking forward to our trip in the summer!
Fantastic experience: This is the first time we've used Hayes & Jarvis to organise a holiday and my first impressions are very positive. The initial advice from Matthew (Doidge )through to the putting together the final itinerary was exemplary. He listened to our requirements and ideas and included activities he thought would suit us and has selected some fantastic hotels to suit our budget. So far, so very good!
Fantastic experience: Just booked another trip to Thailand with Hayes & Jarvis. Chris Cook was, as always extremely helpful and managed to get the exact holiday that we wanted. For myself and my husband, Chris is always our first choice when we are seeking a holiday, although we do cast our net widely, he always comes out on top. Everything we ask for he goes above and beyond and constantly keeps us updated. We have travelled with Hayes & Jarvis now for many years and cannot fault the service we receive. Excellent once again.
Fantastic experience: We have recently booked our honeymoon with Chris at Hayes & Jarvis . The end result being time in Cape Town , a Safari followed by a beach break in Mauritius. We had an idea of what we wanted to do but no clear preference on timings / duration . Chris was patient and dealt with our million questions quickly and efficiently . He was able to add his personal experiences as well as his profession opinions to help us decide between various things. He provided revisions to proposals super quick and helped us get everything booked . We would highly recommend Chris and Hayes & Jarvis .
Fantastic experience: I have just booked a trip to Costa Rica through Hayes and Jarvis. Bethany Coombs was my travel consultant and her level of commitment was outstanding. She was thorough, professional and explored all options to get me the best deal and fit for my requirements. She made me feel that I was the only person she was dealing with, nothing was too much trouble and she responded by return of email. I have total confidence that the holiday I have booked is exactly what I asked for and I can't wait to go.
Fantastic experience: My husband and I have just booked a trip to South America (Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, and the Galapagos) with Hayes and Jarvis. This is our first time booking with them, and we were really impressed by the experience. Our travel consultant (Beth Coombs) was fantastic - she took the time to listen to exactly what we wanted, and came back with an absolutely amazing itinerary for us. In particular we appreciated that Beth gave us lots of different options for accommodation, and a choice of activities to tailor our holiday. Compared to quotations from other travel agencies, we thought that the design of the itinerary was superior and that the trip was better value for money. We'd love to book with them (and Beth) again!
