I found Ponders Travel when I asked for travel agent recommendations on Facebook.Millie couldn’t have been more helpful when helping me choose the right hotel for our holiday to Madeira. Having just returned from an amazing week I can say we stayed in the perfect hotel, in the perfect location. Millie took care of all the travel details for us so there was absolutely no stress. She also shared her personal knowledge of Madeira to give me loads ideas of places to visit / things to do.Since booking this trip I have made 2 further bookings (short breaks to Ibiza and Amsterdam) with Millie and I think I can safely say the days of me booking my own travel arrangements are well and truly over.

Would highly recommend Ponders Travel! Thank you so much to Millie for finding us an amazing holiday earlier this year - with just some dates, a budget and an ask to find us some great holiday options, they did just that and found us a fantastic hotel in an amazing place and thought of lots of things to make it an easy and fantastic holiday! Thanks!

We have just returned from the trip of a lifetime in Madeira to celebrate my birthday. The whole trip was quite simply perfect. The holiday, without a doubt, was the most amazing holiday of my life. “The boy did good”, with some help from Ponders, just does’t seem enough, it was absolutely incredible. Madeira is completely underrated, and we will 100% return in the future. I managed to get all the way onto the plane before I even knew where I was going!
Thank you so much to everyone at Ponders for helping my husband create the most amazing mini break.

Superb! Millie booked a family holiday within 24 hours for a short notice break We didn't really know where we wanted to go (as long as it was sunny) and Millie helped us choose an all-inclusive break in Rhodes. She was very patient and helpful as we changed our minds several times. Definitely recommend and will use again.

What can we say!
These wonderful ladies are truly fantastic and we would not entertain looking elsewhere for another travel company.
They have booked us short UK trips, European breaks to cruises and even arranged our wedding for us in Miami, before going onto Buenos Aires then on the Regent South American venture for our honeymoon!
We certainly set Clare and the girls a challenge! We could not have envisaged unforeseen problems getting married in Miami but Clare went beyond the line of duty to make sure our day was memorable! You wouldn’t get that service with any high street travel company.
A first class service and part of the family now!

Having just come back from an escorted cruise to the Norwegian fjords with Clare and Paul. Nothing was too much trouble from being picked up from home and return to all the care and fun on board. Now looking forward to our next escorted trip in July

With life being so busy and Ponders on our high street, we thought we would try a travel agent after many years of booking everything ourselves.
They searched the destinations we’d requested and gave us a short list, this saved us so much time. Everyone at Ponders was lovely and our holiday in France was perfect.
We would highly recommend and will definitely use them again.

Clare, and her team at Ponders, has now organised 5 dance school cruises for us. Numbers have ranged from 25 to 86 people travelling. Service is always friendly and efficient and nothing is a problem to this fantastic team. I look forward to organising cruise number 6 for 2021.

Arrived at airport on Sunday to find flight cancelled back to Manchester - within 15 mins on the phone to Clare had rebooked a flight back and found us another hotel back in Porto . Brilliant out of hours service!!!! Don and Christine Proctor

We have just returned from a Cruise onboard Columbus around the Norwegian Fjords. We had a large group travelling with 22 dancers performing 2 shows onboard. This was quite a specialist trip and so there was lots to organise. Ponders were extremely helpful and efficient throughout the whole process and nothing was too much trouble for them. The whole trip went so smoothly and everyone had the most amazing experience - truly a trip of a lifetime!! Thank-you to the Ponders team for everything!!

I live in Port Lincoln South Australia and have just returned from a cruise on the QE2 and 3+ weeks in the UK. I rarely provide reviews but Ponders staff - Lorraine Bainbridge specifically - gave such good service that I am happy to give public feedback. I was initially nervous about making arrangements from such a distance but after skyping several times I was confident to work through Ponders. My wife and I are relatively independent "value" travellers and the deal for the cruise and the back-up I received was excellent. Further advice and connections that were provided for my travel by car through Scotland and England was the same. They will certainly get our business in the future.

Lorraine and the team helped to book our 2 week get away to America. We had no clue where we wanted to go but they were so helpful in helping us decide, they booked it quickly and efficiently, with great, affordable hotels. We even had the panic of hurricane Irma disrupting our holiday, and they were so quick to e-mail reassuring us we'd be okay and they would take care of us if anything was to change, luckily everything went to plan! As a family, we are definitely using them again for our future holidays.

Back from an amazing 2 days in Venice followed by a 7 day NCL cruise around the Greek islands with my husband and 4 children.
The children are aged between 18 and 8 and all had so much to do. The food was amazing and the places we visited were fantastic. It is amazing waking up in a different place every day and was excellent value as every drink, slushy, ice cream, crepe is included so you know exactly what you are paying up front. The teenage club was fantastic and our 14 year old boy made so many friends on the first day that we hardly saw him!!
All the transfers organised by ponders were spot on and I would recommend them as a company to anyone. Will be using them to book next year's holiday without a doubt!!

I have already recommended Ponders Travel to family and friends and will continue to do so. They arranged our three week holiday to America this summer. The itinerary was complicated but everything was organised perfectly. Absolutely faultless!

Expertly organised trip to Morocco. The Riad we stayed in was excellent and our agent was more than willing to offer his advice on all matters.

Just back from a fantastic Venice cruise organised and hosted by Clare at Ponders. We had a great time and could not fault the organisation and service. Thanks Clare and Paul and we look forward to travelling with you in the future.

I came across Ponders website by a Google search. I wanted to take a cruise and needed to travel by the next 6 days. I live in the Middle East but that wasn't a problem. Zoltan, a travel consultant chatted with me online and guided me through cruises options. The next day, Zoltan finalized everything in a short matter of time. Highly recommended and loved how efficient their travel agent was. Thank you!

Do you rely on personal advice?
At Ponders Travel we are so fortunate as a team to have travelled extensively. We know how important it is when deciding on your holiday plans that each destination, hotel, ship or other has been tried and tested. We only use highly reputed tour operators and cruise lines that we know will provide you with a top-class experience, no matter what!
Not only do we know and trust the operators we use, between us we have seen a lot of the destinations, over 120 individual cruise ships, and many hotels with our own eyes! We have compiled an extensive list of just a few of our favourite destinations and our top 10 tips for each one! You can find this by hovering over the ‘Holiday Essentials’ tab, or by taking a look at each holiday type and destination above!
Not only that, but you can also find write ups of our cruising personal experiences in the cruising tab!
These share just a fraction of the knowledge and experience we have as a team – it would take years to compile everything! – but we hope this gives you some guidance and inspiration for your next Ponders Travel holiday.
