Planet Travel Holidays.: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Great advice as to the best holiday locations that would meet our requirements. Very knowledgeable about the hotels and holiday destinations with suggestions that would make the holiday even better.
Thank you making time to review us Paul, very much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Very helpful with booking—quick, friendly, and knowledgeable.
Thank you for taking the time to review us Ronnie. So appreciated :)
Fantastic experience: Thanks Matt for all your help with organising my 3rd trip through Planet Travel. As previously super helpful and knowledgeable about different resorts and conditions. Really appreciate your flexibility and options provided. Can’t wait to go now
Hi Jon Many thanks for the feedback - it is great to get you away with us again!!! Matt
Fantastic experience: Planet Travel did a great job selecting Soma Bay in Egypt for our recent family holiday. We wanted a nice hotel, with tennis, snorkelling, windsurfing, kitesurfing all in the same venue. Matt and his team were brilliant and attentive to getting everything sorted for us - highly recommended!
Hi Marshall - thank you very much for the kind review. We are really happy you had a good time away and things matched your expectations. I look forward to assisting with the next trip| Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: Really happy with the level of customer service . Emails from me were replied to within the hour . On paying deposit access was given to their Planet Holiday app containing all travel documents etc. Definitely a 5 star review
Brilliant to know we are doing a good job, thank you Mac!
Fantastic experience: This is our second time to book our kitesurfing trip with Planet travel Holidays and again it was super easy. We suggested where we were thinking of going and Matt came back with ideas, and from there we decided on our Trip (Dahkla this year) and Matt took care of everything else. All we have to do now is pack our bags !!!
Fantastic experience: Matt was very knowledgeable and informative. This helped us decide where to go for our windsurfing holiday in Cape Verde. Flights, accommodation and the windsurfing package were quickly and efficiently arranged.
Thank you for the great feedback Richard. Matt is away on a site visit to Mauritius now, but we will be sure to pass this back to him.
Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service and advice. Matt able to give fantastic background to places, sports, conditions and hotels and knew what he was talking about. Thoroughly recommend talking to their experts on the phone before booking. Found me the perfect holiday.
Hi Miranda, many thanks for the kind review - it was great to take the time to go through the best and appropriate options. Made up that we've got you to La Tour D'Eole, it is a great spot!! Enjoy your trip - Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: This is the second time I have used Planet Travel and for good reason, they are first rate. I booked a trip earlier this year to Dahkla and recently a trip to Bonaire. Matt is very knowledgeable about all of these sites having been there before and makes reliable recommendations on what to do, where to stay and when to go based on what fits your needs. Furthermore he was patient and understanding and happy to look into numerous options and scenarios to make sure I got what I was looking for. I will use them again.
Hi Mike - manny thanks for the kind review Always a pleasure to get a trip sorted for you ! Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: I don't normally bother leaving reviews but felt after our recent holiday to Mauritius, organised through Planet Travel I should. We wanted a holiday where my wife could read a book and I could enjoy watersports, with this in mind they advised on the perfect place. Before speaking to them we spoke to the larger travel companies who had no real knowledge of the resorts other than what was printed in the brochure, Planet Travel not only knew the resorts but advised and booked all the hire equipment , hotel and transfers , it was pretty seamless. We did have a minor issue with the hotel which wasn't resolved when speaking to the reception staff so phoned the guys at Planet Travel (and got straight through) who had it sorted in the hour. Price wise they were actually a little cheaper the larger companies . We will 100% be booking with them again .
Thank you for taking the time to write this fantastic review Colin. It genuinely makes all the difference to us when we hear our clients have such a wonderful experience. Really appreciated !
Fantastic experience: Matt and the team have been superb to deal with, this is the third holiday we have booked through them and we've always had great service.
Great to hear Martin. Thank you for being such a great customer! Until next time.
Fantastic experience: Just finished booking a short windsurfing trip away with Planet Travel - they have been awesome throughout the process. Matt helped me from the first call and has amazing knowledge of every venue and was really honest about the pros and cons of the various options (having experienced them himself). I was also a difficult customer as I was unclear on dates, then changed them and I was also very last minute and over a school half term... Not easy but Matt was totally unflustered and patient and walked through the booking all the way to a happy conclusion. I cannot recommend Planet Travel enough.
thank you Luke - it was no problem getting you all set your last minute trip. Enjoy your time away and let us know how you get on! Matt @ Planet Windsurf
Fantastic experience: Great service, knowledge and customer experience. Has organised my Vietnam trip superbly
Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful feedback Peter.
Fantastic experience: After too many years of planning, but failing, to go on a windsurfing holiday, I've finally got one booked. Massive thank you to Matt at Planet Windsurf for his advice and input. I'm really excited to get back into this sport that I used to love so much!
Hi Rob - many thanks for the kind review - really happy to helped to get you back in Windsurfing with this trip - not long to go until departure!!! Matt @ Planet Windsurf
Fantastic experience: Matt was great. Very helpful and he explained the options. I feel like I have a tailored solution to my request and am looking forward to the experience in Egypt. Let’s see!
Hi Duncan - thank you for the review - really glad to have sorted this trip for you. Have a great time away ! Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: I booked a last minute holiday for my daughter and her boyfriend aged 24 who wanted to crack kite surfing and wing foiling . Nothing was too much trouble and we spoke at length re destinations/durations etc . Quotes from Matt came through within half and hour and what a holiday they have had . From a meet and greet airside experience, 5* Steigenburger hotel, fabulous staff , food , and wonderful KBC instructors. Josh and Evie have had a ball , fitted in snorkelling on a private boat too. Everything organised so brilliantly and all arrangements on Planet Surf App so always with you. Start to finish , brilliant and efficient . Would use again in an instant
Hi Karina - many thanks for the kind words - we are so happy that all worked out for Josh and Evie and that the spot provided the best opportunity to progress with the Kiting and Wing Foiling. The app is a nice touch for our guests and proves to be super useful! Looking forward to chatting soon about the next trip! Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: Exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful. Matt guided us through the options and gave great advice. Will definately use Matt again.
thank you Robert, for the kind feedback - we are really happy to have helped. Dakhla is going to be amazing!!! Matt
Fantastic experience: I contacted Planet Travel as was looking for a late booking to go to find winter sun and wind. I had a few ideas in mind and a budget. Matt Mockford picked up my enquiry called and emailed me and within 24hrs i gave me numerous choices. Matt was always happy to pick up a call and answer my questions. We have now booked a superb holiday to Mauritius which will suit myself and wife down to the ground. Great service and will definitely use again.
Hi Henry - many thanks for the kind review left on our review page Your trip looks awesome and I may see you on the water in November as I am going myself! Matt
Fantastic experience: Earlier this year I booked a diving trip for my son and me - our first diving holiday so I needed advice. I chose Planet Travel, having been aware of them for some time through friends who have booked kitesurfing holidays. I had several calls with the team when booking the holiday. Nothing was too much trouble, they gave me many tailored recommendations, and were prepared to spend as much time as it took for me to take the right decision. It was very clear that the advice was honest and based on personal experience from having visited the resorts. What's more, the support from the Planet team did not stop at booking. They helped with an issue at the resort (swiftly resolved) and even helped me to claim compensation for a delayed return flight. The holiday was great success - one of the best ever - and was made so by Planet Travel. As a result my wife and I have just chosen them for booking another holiday. The call was taken by Marcus on a work trip in Peru (I think he said) on Friday evening. We spent an hour discussing options, a quote came through within another hour and we booked the next day. Just fantastic service.
Thank you for taking the time to post this review David, it means a lot to us. I think your next trip this October to Dakhla will be amazing!
Fantastic experience: Excellent organisation with some complex arrangements. Everything went very smoothly so I am happy
Thank you Tim, really appreciated the great feedback. Brazil is such an amazing kitesurf location.
Fantastic experience: Matt was EXTREMELY knowledgeable on all kiting locations and was wonderful to work with. He made what is normally an ordeal into a very pleasant experience. Really looking forward to this trip.
Hi Jim - many thanks for the kind words - I am sure you will love Dakhla Matt
Fantastic experience: Have been on several holidays with Planet Travel Holidays, always great fun and well organised. Marcus and the team really know their stuff. The latest trip to Dakhla was great. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for kitesurfing holidays. Thanks guys.
Thank you Jon. A great pleasure to book you on these trips. Until next time.
Fantastic experience: Just returned from our first trip to Prasonisi and am very pleased to report that it didn’t disappoint! We had 7 days windsurfing and, although it was on bigger sails than we hoped ( generally 6.2), we were really well looked after and now ready for a much needed rest.
Fantastic experience: Another good experience with Matt at Planet Travel and sorted us out perfectly, recommended
Fantastic experience: Great service, in depth knowledge, efficient booking process. Can recommend without hesitation
Fantastic experience: Booking a holiday with them is fantastic! Their assistance, communication, and attention to detail is outstanding.
Fantastic experience: Sincere thanks to Matt and Fatima for the organisation of one of the best trips of my life! Matt, having been to Morocco and stayed at the Caravan (Dakhla), was able to accurately inform of what to expect when I arrived there. Matt you were spot on and the resort was an incredible gem. The staff were without exception, friendly, competent, and polite. The food was in a different world and the close proximity to the water, was as you described. A special shout out for Ayob and Abdul from the Kite school who went out of their way to assist. We rented a 15m Core and bar on a light wind morning, and used their lockers to store all our kite gear. On the last day, without being asked to, they took out our kites, inflated them, washed them down and dried/folded them for transportation back home. Amazing. Thank you Planet Kitesurf. For sure we'll avail of your excellent service on future kiting adventures.
Fantastic experience: Marcus and the team at Planet Travel were awesome. Great recommendations on where to stay and why - with personal experience to back it up and help me choose the right place. The trip itself was brilliant, all the logistics were smooth and the experience of being in Soma Bay and wing foiling at the 7BTH centre was excellent. The Kempinski lived up to its 5* rating and I'll be taking the family back there in the Autumn. Thanks to all at Planet!
Fantastic experience: Really happy with the holiday choice and service in booking this. I couldn't have arranged this myself.
Fantastic experience: The team was very helpful and responsive. Very easy booking process, looking forward to a great holiday!
Fantastic experience: I contacted Planet Travel after finding them on line in a search for a kite surfing holiday for a special birthday for my husband . I received an immediate response to my e mail request which included a wide range of really helpful suggestions . Matt was incredibly knowledgeable and helped find the best location , hotel and kite surf instruction for my husband and I . It is without hesitation that I would recommend Matt and the team at Planet travel to anyone looking to book a kitesurfing holiday . Amazing service !
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, good price and Matt was very knowledgeable. I will definitely use you again. thanks
Fantastic experience: Excellent service from Matt. Very knowledgeable, knows the area well and as an avid water sport enthusiast, really understands what’s important. Can’t recommend enough
Fantastic experience: Great booking experience. Dealt with Matt who prevented me booking a trip which didn't suit my needs and would have been too expensive. Very responsive team and booking was painless.
Fantastic experience: Hi Guys Just a follow up after all the effort and time that was spent getting this booking made. Thank you so much, resort was really cool, food was off the planet. Couldn’t believe the variety and quality, it was amazing.. All the staff were truly brilliant. The kite team at the centre were also, as hospitable and you could hope for. Lastly,, 5 days of wind, so can’t complain Thanks once again for all your help and effort in getting this booked for us. Will be revisiting and will be booking with planet, of course Rgds Peter & Martin
Fantastic experience: My wife, adult son and myself had the best time staying at the Melia resort INNSide in Fuerteventura. Thanks to Matt and the team at Planet Kitesurf for this recommendation. Even though we didn't have much wind the week we went, it's such a lovely hotel, stylish, comfortable and in a beautiful location with a tidal lagoon and huge expanse of the cleanest beach and azure waters. And the food and staff are fabulous. We will definitely be back for more.
Fantastic experience: What a great experience with Planet Travel, prompt efficient service, nothing was a problem. Matt was just great and we would highly recommend. The App is amazing also, thank you
Fantastic experience: Just returned from a windsurfing trip to Soma Bay which we booked through Planet Windsurf. The process was great and easy - we had a rough idea of what we wanted so Matt sent through several tailored recommendations. We stayed at Palm Royale and windsurfed with Surf Motion which is right next door. Both the hotel and the centre were great, would highly recommend both. Windsurfing conditions were perfect for us - sandy beach, consistent wind and warm water. They also had a lot of kite surfing and wing foiling. The travel arrangements were all easy, Planet Windsurf send you travel docs which cover everything you need. Spring Tours were the local company who handled the airport transfers - the guys were very friendly and gave us good tips as it was our first time in Egypt. Overall a great recommendation from Planet Windsurf and a super easy process from start to finish!
Fantastic experience: Worked through several options and sorted the trip I wanted, very helpful and great to deal with.
Fantastic experience: Great experience booking with Planet Travel. This is our 7th time travelling with them. Really excellent recommendations and advice, very efficient and thorough, very enjoyable experience overall, great staff. Have been dealing with Matt and other members of his team since 2016 and we keep coming back.
Fantastic experience: I spent some time looking for diving holidays in Sardinia. Most sites now seem to request you contact them for prices, but Planet travel was one of the quickest to respond. They also provided a range of options price wise and responded correctly to the questions I had (some sites failed on this point), The advisor who responded to me (Matt) was knowledgeable and looked into and responded to my follow up questions quickly. Of the 3 price options provided their cheapest (the one I picked) was still better overall than the closest competitor quote. So far I am very happy with their service.
Fantastic experience: Matt was very knowledgeable and very helpful In getting our booking options sorted
Fantastic experience: Worry-free travel assistance from knowledgeable, experienced people whom will curate the perfect trip for you!
Fantastic experience: Very positive booking experience. Staff super helpful and they have a very polite email manner. Nothing was too much trouble.
Fantastic experience: Planet really went the extra mile for us when booking our last minute trip to Fuerteventura. We had to change our plans a couple of times and Matt was especially helpful in making sure we got the trip booked up in time. Can’t wait to fly out on Sunday. Thank you Planet!
Fantastic experience: Perfect dealings from start to finish it is the first time I have booked Christmas away and also my first Kitesurfing holiday. Matt's experience and knowledge of what each destination has to offer at a difficult time off year to book a kitesurfing holiday is exceptional. Very happy to have booked my holiday with the team in planet travel holidays.
Hi Mark - thank you for the review - I hope you had an enjoyable time away. Reach out when you are next looking Matt @ Planeet
Fantastic experience: Great customer service from Matt and his colleagues – was given seven different options to choose from on a windsurfing holiday to Fuerteventura for two on a given budget. Now booked, looking forward to the holiday. Thanks Planet Windsurf.
Fantastic experience: The very best in customer service. Booked a holiday to The Maldives through Planet Travel. Their attention to deal in dealing with me as a fussy and worrying traveller could not have been better. Provided me with the detail I needed, in advance before I booked the holiday. Their excellent service continued after book the trip, with regular emails, their own app updates and phone calls to confirm all was well. We had a fantastic time! Would definitely recommend Planet Travel and will be booking our next holiday through them!
Fantastic experience: Great service - really knowledgeable, incredibly responsive and easy to deal with. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Really smooth experience booking my first holiday with Planet Travel Holidays. I have travelled a lot over the last 6 decades and used numerous travel companies but this time, from initial enquiry to booking and payment all the members of staff were very responsive, friendly and efficient and the experience felt very joined up, which you don’t always find. In addition, their travel app is one of the best I have used too and I particularly like all the useful phone numbers (Consulate/ police/ hospital etc) that are all in one place. Thank you and I would definitely recommend you to my friends.
Fantastic experience: Matt and Planet Travel are always brilliant - they really know their stuff.
Fantastic experience: The team at Planet Travel are very knowledgeable, professional and personable. They know the best spots and how to marry up my needs to get the most out of any experience. They have first-hand knowledge and good relationships in at each location. Plus they make any admin around the holiday very simple with their app! Have used them 3 times now and couldn't find fault. Will use again for sure. Top service for kitesurfers like me looking for stress free holidays ))
Fantastic experience: Planet Travel put together a truly epic holiday for me and my family recently in Mauritius. Everything they advised was bang on, the hotel connections, everything. So very easy to deal with and superbly helpful. Planet will certainly be my "Go To" from here. Thank you so very much.
Fantastic experience: I recently booked a kite surfing trip to Mauritius but extended the travel so that I could include a weeks sailing with another operator. Matt handled the booking and gave me great advice on my options, understanding my requirements and bringing the two together. He was super patient while I finalised the details. He went the extra mile to make sure I had the accommodation I wanted even though it was showing as unavailable at the start, ending up with exactly what I wanted. Thank you Matt and the rest of the team who liaised with me all the way through.
Fantastic experience: The team at Planet make planning and booking kitesurfing and windsurfing holidays a relaxed and enjoyable experience. They have time to discuss the best options for you and present their quotes in an easy to manage and clear way. I’ve looked at booking flights and accommodation separately and I found that Planet beat those prices. Plus, you have the added benefit that they take the stress out of the process for you and provide added safeguards for your booking.
Fantastic experience: Great trip to SOMA Bay for 4 days off wingfoiling with party of 3. Perfect conditions in the Bay, SurfMotion school was great team and kit. Palm Royale as a hotel is so-so but then again we were there for the watersports and it was perfectly ok for what we were after. thank you to Marcus for helping get us booked in at Planet.
Fantastic experience: Matt is super friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. All options provided would have been appropriate, and have booked a package in June for Fuerteventura. Can't wait..!
Fantastic experience: Casa Cook was an ideal location for me and my wife; Matt's brilliant advice for it as a good kite foiling spot and the best room to go for (sea view) was invaluable. It's a walk of about 100-150m to get beyond the reef for foiling, which is pretty easy given the winds are steady. Hotel, pool, food and room all of a really high standard, as were the super helpful staff. The kite centre is part of the hotel's pool/bar complex and is one of the best I've seen. For a couple where only one of you kites this place is perfect. Thanks Planet.
Fantastic experience: Thanks to the team for sorting out an excellent liveaboard on Aggressor III in Belize. All the travel worked really smoothly. The Planet Travel App was really useful and worked perfectly with all the information easily available, and the United airlines App was good too. They had to do a fair bit of chasing for information, and emails from the team kept us right, was very much appreciated and not easy when divers coming from London and Daka. The choice to put us on the smaller Aggressor III turned out to be a good one, and we got to dive the Blue Hole. A memorable experience. Until next time, thank you
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Planet Travel. Booked my trip of a lifetime to Kitesurf in Mauritius with Matt, Marcus, Fatima and the team. From the outset I was given a personal service that I wouldn’t have received from a std holiday company and this was despite me being a somewhat “challenging” customer! Flights and accommodation were all beyond my expectations and when a slight problem did arise, Fatima got it resolved for me. Only thing I’d change…more wind next time pls!
Fantastic experience: Just back from a second trip to Sicily booked via Planet kite. The whole booking process was seem less once again and all staff that we came into contact with extremely helpful. EasyJet left our kitesurfing kit in Palermo when we flew back to Gatwick and Minhaj and Fatima helped make what could have been a stressful process very easy and 4 days later our kit is now back with us. Thank you so much. Another fantastic trip and highly recommend booking your next trip with these guys.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic experience using plant travel for our kitesurfing holiday to the Movenpick in Egypt. Matt was very knowledgeable in helping us plan a holiday that suited our needs. Thanks to Melissa everything was arranged for us and we were refugularly updated about any changes to the flights, hotel, transfers and kiteboarding sessions. The kitesurfing was great and we would definitely recommend using the company again.
Fantastic experience: We have used Matt Mockford at Planet Travel to book two holidays to Egypt. Both times, his responses have been super quick, the information has been full and reliable, and his knowledge of the best kitesurfing spots is second to none. On top of all that, the quotes he is able to obtain always seem to be the best - even comparing with bucket shops or airlines/hotels directly.
Fantastic experience: I was confused and overwhelmed by a web search for windsurfing holiday and called Planet Windsurf. Matt's knowledge cut through the noise and he suggested a great package that I'd never have found. Wahoo, time to pack the bags.
Fantastic experience: I've used Matt and the planet travel team twice now. First time round i wasn't so sure as i hadn't use a travel company before to help organise a holiday; second time round i had absolutely no doubt who i was contacting for help..Matt (my first planet travel holiday was unreal, all thanks to Matt) Matt was super professional, very responsive and helpful; he knew all the 'spots' around the location i was interested in so he was able to give me a detailed insight into all my options. Once you've booked, the planet travel app gives you easy access to all the info you might need prior and during your holiday so no worrying about that. I can't recommend Matt and the planet travel team highly enough ! If, like i did, you have any reservations about booking with a travel agent..ignore yourself, you're being silly.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Planet Travel was excellent. The agent was well versed in kitesurfing destinations around the world. My trip to Ceara Brazil was great from all aspects. Very professional operation that I will use again in the future.
Hi Ronnie - many thanks for the kind review. Brazil is an awesome spot and our extended travel options really work (with good planning!!). We look forward to seeing how we can help for the next one! Matt @ Planet
Fantastic experience: The perfect company for organising your kite surfing adventures - I've just booked my second trip - great advice and really easy. Trip confirmed within 2hrs.
Fantastic experience: Really good experience with booking a week in Egypt. MATT and the team put together a great package for a week kitesurfing. Hotel Palm Royal excellent, Surf Motion Kite School was well run with lots of kit. Will definitely use again. Ray
Fantastic experience: Booking with planetkite has been great. Matt has been very helpful and made time to speak to us on the phone even with us living in New Zealand. Competitive pricing, quick responses and some nice add Ons that you might not get elsewhere. We can’t wait to head off on our dream honeymoon!! Thanks Guys ✈️ ☀️
Fantastic experience: Matt and Melisa were extremely helpful, quick to reply and efficient.
Fantastic experience: Great All round experience, makes booking a water sports trip very simple, fantastic range of options for locations and all ran very smoothly.
Negative experience: I was expecting face to face service, as appeared in Google, but the girl at the phone in her twenties instead to just answer my question, start asking questions to me trying to persuade me to do online, and I was in a rush to book a trip, and I have to stop her talking and said very assertive :Sorry, not interested!
Fantastic experience: Matt is incredibly knowledgeable- giving the inside track and insightful guidance not possible on-line. First rate
Fantastic experience: That was easy! Holiday to Mauritius booked.....thanks for all your help Matt X
Fantastic experience: Good knowledge of resorts and local conditions, friendly and efficient service - we have booked several windsurf holidays with Planet and will be doing it again.
Fantastic experience: Great communication and personal service through booking process. Plenty of local knowledge about the destination and Wing Foiling info. Looking forward to the holiday now!
Fantastic experience: Great service booking our Kitesurf trip to Dakhla. Really knowledgeable about the best place to go and the team (esp Matt and Melissa) a pleasure to deal with
Positive experience: Very quick response from the initial enquiry and helpful and experienced service offered by Matt. Knew the area and was aware of the diving and sites around Gozo.
Fantastic experience: So far so good. Awesome advice help and support with loads of options. Would not hesitate to recommend. Masses of knowledge to tap into....
Fantastic experience: Great Team and super helpful. Knowledgable about locations and offer great service, follow up and are a holiday agent I can certainly trust. highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Although I'm an experienced kite surfer, Planet Travel listened to what I was trying to achieve and helped guide me along the way. They took the time to go through lots of options and came up with some really good options, without pressuring me into a decision. Previously, I've done my own research, which can be very time consuming but Planet Travel took away a lot of that stress and hassle. We're really looking forward to our trip!
Fantastic experience: As always very knowledgeable and helpful. We have booked our holidays with them for many years and all have fulfilled our expectations and gone smoothly. I would highly recommend them
Fantastic experience: Great service. Matt and the team were very knowledgable about the resort and the kiting and really helped us get our dream holiday off the ground -something we've been thinking about for years, so glad we went with Planet.
Fantastic experience: We've used Planet Windsurf a couple of times. We usually need a balance of watersports, cultural and other activities to keep everyone happy. Initially Planet Windsurf helped us with a family holiday at FeelViana (Costelo do Viana) in Portugal. We had a great time and the organisation was smooth. There's lots to do there and the watersports and other activities are excellent. Now we're booking for Rhodes and have received fantastic personalised advice on accommodation, options for kit hire and other activities for a balanced holiday on and off the water. All delivered by Matt who has been quick to respond and has really listened to what we're looking for. Can't wait to get there...
Fantastic experience: We have booked a slightly complex family holiday to the Maldives and worked with Matt Mockford. We have had nothing but great ideas and an effort to make our trip as enjoyable as possible. The holiday is not for a few months yet, but we have already experienced a great after sales service form the team. So far we have found them to be excellent and willing to go the extra mile. There were a lot of changes from our side and we still may add another traveler for a while and we simply had great support and help.
Fantastic experience: After changing the date and location several times, I finally booked a holiday with Matt to head to Sicily and learn to kitesurf in June. Matt was great, very accommodating and knowledgeable in his advice of where would be the best place to learn and had no troubles piecing together an itinerary to suit my situation. Highly recommend, I have no doubt the holiday will go as smoothly as the booking process.
Fantastic experience: I recently booked a wing foiling holiday with Planet Travels and would highly recommend them. They provided really detailed and tailored advice that helped me make the right choice. I found that the agents (particularly Matt) had personal experience of the locations and hotels we discussed which was really important to me. There's nothing worse than a salesman wo doesn't know their subject! Would definitely book with them again.
Positive experience: Ok - let’s start with the important questions: 1/ would I recommend Planet Kitesurf ? An overwhelming YES 2/ would I use them personally again ? YES - already thinking about next trip The positives - great advice - they know the places so can really advise on location , accommodation , level, equipment - everything - very knowledgeable. Prices were also very reasonable. I will definitely be a returning customer. We were a family of three - mixed levels ( from beginner to advanced ) and went to Cap Verde in January and the Organization and holiday and kiting was excellent So why not 5* ? A couple of small things to improve : - equipment insurance is available but wasn’t discussed / offered as an option - we learned the expensive way after damaging a board on the rocks that our rental didn’t include insurance . Will definitely request next time - all the passengers on the plane had ‘e-Visas’ automatically booked by TUI - except us . Manual visa process worked but meant lots of queuing on arrival . This information and steps to take wasn’t obvious in the documentation given in advance . - the organised return transfer which was booked took us to the airport 4 hours before take off ( it had the wrong flight time on the transfer slip ) - 2 or 3 would have been sufficient but since it was 4 we lost out on half day kiting . - on advice from planet Kitesurf we opted for the upgraded rooms at extra cost. However only had hot water for half of the showers - fortunately the cold wasn’t too cold So - overall - excellent - would highly recommend but this one didn’t quite merit the 5* rating - hopefully the next one will :)
Fantastic experience: Planet travel made our kite surf trip to Dakhla easy but producing us a short list of the best spots for us, and then taking the time to hear my priorities for the trip and supporting us select the right hotel! They really got it right too, and we’re already booked to repeat the holiday exactly as the first time! Couldn’t recommend enough, particularly as Planet have access to hotels which sometimes aren’t on the regular booking websites
Fantastic experience: I was a kitesurf novice and initially contacted Adventrus who are the sister company of Planet Travel Holidays. I was lucky to speak to Marcus Bull provided real world informed advice being a kite surfer himself and I was able to discuss my requirements and he suggested the right spot. The vacation proved to be a great success and certainly matched, if not exceeded, my expectations. So a big thanks to both Adventrus and Planet Travel for their advice, handling the bookings and a subsequent holiday extension. It was a really customer centric experience all round.
Fantastic experience: Visited La Tour d’Eole with my kite buddy in November, booked with Planet Travel. The resort is lovely, very relaxing and the food is exceptional. There was wind every day and the Ocean Academy is really well equipped with everything you might want to hire. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back. Planet Travel is a fantastic agent, everything is seamless. Matt and the team are great. They have visited these places themselves so they have all the inside knowledge to tailor your trip to what you are looking for. I've been booking with them for years and they've never failed to deliver!
Fantastic experience: Top tailored made holidays at great price! Once the trip was confirmed, I was very pleased to receive all the documents which confirmed and booked all the different aspect of the trip. Well explained and straight forward, I used those documents with the hotel transfer, hotel and windsurf centre ; they were recognised and accepted straight away. The hotel was a good surprised, clean, friendly, perfectly located. I have nothing to say, absolutely brilliant. Ion windsurf centre was even more impressive. Two locations with easy transfer from one to another, very good quality boards and sails with dedicated team. People there are very friendly, good advice, make you feel that all you have to worry is having fun, genuinely impress. So all in one a massive thank you to Planet Travel Holidays which provides great package, professional advices, and great communication.
Fantastic experience: Palm Royale hotel was lovely, very clean, very friendly staff, all inclusive buffet food was excellent no need to go to the a la carte restaurants. After flight home was cancelled a big Thank you to Planet Travel holidays for organising a hotel late at night.
Positive experience: Called them 4 days before the date that we had reserved to go snowboarding which had then been cancelled. Immediate response and great advice narrowing down the potentially unlimited options of travel to the Maldives for diving. Great hotel, smooth experience. Matt and the team at Planet Windsurf/dive were excellent. Will definitely use you guys again. Thanks. Subsequent experience booking for Mauritius not so good. Hugely overpriced !
Fantastic experience: Matt was great at organising a Kite surfing holiday for us. Very helpful and knowledgeable as to the resort in Morocco and made sure we booked the courses and equipment that suited us. We have had several holidays with Planet Kitesurf and will always come back. What more is there to say. Well done and excellent service.
Fantastic experience: This is my second holiday booking and I have to say their knowledge, expertise and experience is brilliant. An excellent booking experience. They have been very helpful and responsive, finding great watersports locations for me at great prices. They know all the resorts because they have been there and therefore can give great advice. I thoroughly recommend them. Can’t wait to go on my next windsurfing holiday!
Fantastic experience: Matt was extremely helpful and patient whilst we selected the location and dates for our next kitesurfing trip. His knowledge of the resorts/locations made selecting the best place for our specific needs easy. Thx
Fantastic experience: Matt and Markus are amazing. Incredibly knowledgeable about every kiteboard, wing board and Kitefoil destination I could think of. First class. Nothing too much trouble. I imposed on them to organise my trip at v short notice .... I booked with them on the day of travel! and they did it efficiently and perfectly. Thank you
Fantastic experience: We had a great diving holiday to Gozo with planet travel. Responsive staff, a useful app with all our booking documents, and efficient processing of a refund at the end of the holiday following my inability to take up all of my pre-booked diving. Would use again!
Fantastic experience: I booked a Kitetrip with Planet Travel Holidays before the Corona pandemic. Due to the pandemic our trip had to be cancelled. Planet Travel Holidays (and especially Matt) were very flexible, transparent and called me up several times to check how we would like to proceed with our booking. The overall experience with the team of planet travel holidays was outstanding! This is exactly what I expect from a travel agency - fast, responsive, friendly, professional and fair - and all of that for a competitive price. If I could I would give 10 stars but 5 is the maximum - totally deserved:-) Best regards, Andri
