Advantages: Good value for money, excellent deals, very helpful staff. Disadvantages: Have to buy own food. Might have go tit cheaper if booked at last minute.
I have waited to post this opinion until I had actually booked the holiday, which I did this morning. I wasn’t going to post it first and let you lot beat me to the Travel Agents! Ha! There aint no flies on carolinesite ;-)
Firstly, after writing my opinion about a cruise I had in 1995, I felt I wanted another holiday like that. I picked up a few brochures from the GoingPlaces shop, and sat down with a cup of coffee. I was horrified at how much the prices had gone up in 6 years. They were asking about £1,000 per person for a weeks cruise and a week on land, compared to £650 in 1995. I know prices go up, but a 40% increase in 6 years is disgusting. I gave that idea up.

Advantages: Friendly Staff - Is nothing to much for them? Disadvantages: Could do with more staff working there
plan which we found bareable to pay (I don't like paying for things - so bareable is v. good!)
The staff were so friendly and each one was ready to give an opinion on our destination and those that we didn't pick. A case of "My mother went there and said it was best for young ones" or "That was a great place - one of the nicest beaches I've been on" etc
Great advice about weather and currency was given, and I felt that they really cared that you had a good holiday. Whilst there on that day, they had an influx of people coming in to thank them for a great holiday, giving their views on the accomodation, area etc... and they were genuinely interested to hear it all.
Every time I went in to pay, they wold remember me and where I was to go and would ask me if I was exited and let me know the opinions of people that had just come ...
