Just wanted to take time to thank you for organising a fantastic trip to Italy. The schedule you planned out, hotel locations and transfers, via train, between the 6 cities we visited was perfect. Our brief was for you to give us a taster of what Italy has to offer from the hustle of Napoli, history of Rome and scenic beauty of Lake Garda. We are normally package/beach holiday people so the travel/schedule did feel a little overwhelming but the support you gave us before we went and during our visit was outstanding. I guess we could have planned it all ourselves but using you took away any anxiety about hotel bookings or train journeys, we knew we had you to call upon should we have any challenges. It was one of the best holidays we have ever had and has given us loads of confidence in doing similar trips of other countries

I wanted to say a huge thank you for the arrangements you made for Zoe and Luke’s honeymoon. They have returned from an incredible trip having seen great numbers of animals. Their last guide said he’d never known anyone see 5 leopards in one visit. They have some amazing photos and videos. Many memories to treasure! All the transfers and travel worked perfectly.
Thank you to you all at Benchmark for another great holiday. You have a fantastic team Roger!
Suzanne & Maurice Sandford
Thank you very much for all your time that went into helping with our holiday booking to Canada and the various events and activities we encountered over the days away. Our Knight Inlet stay was a special experience and one we will not forget in a hurry. Thank you also for our afternoon tea treat at Lake Louise very much appreciated. The Rocky Mountaineer was great. We are going to have a think about our next adventure, a few more things still on the bucket list to see and explore! Thank you very much.

Thank you to you and your team for organising an amazing adventure! We had a fantastic time in Canada and were lucky to see grizzly bears in their natural home. All our travel plans went like clockwork I’m sure we will be back in the future for another trip.

We've used Benchmark over the past few years for a number of holidays and the service has always been great. This morning was another level from Sarah though, 9:30 on a Sunday supporting us to find an alternative following the Rhodes cancellations. Amazing service that we feel was above and beyond and saved our summer hols! Service that shows the importance of using a travel agent!

I have used Benchmark Travel several times in recent years, notably to arrange group travel and events for the Society of Practicing Veterinary Surgeons. I took a study group to tour Sri Lanka, another to Austria and, in my year as president, Benchmark Travel arranged the London venue for the society’s national conference.
Earlier this month my group of 23 past presidents and partners visited Barcelona, with individual travel arrangements, superb accommodation, fine dining and a local guide all arranged by Roger at Benchmark.
For my local Rotary club, Benchmark organizes an annual city-break in places such as Istanbul, Bordeaux and Madrid. Every one of these events has been a success and, on the rare occasions when the unexpected happens, Roger has been readily available and very quick to step in and put things right. Benchmark Travel is just as good at organizing personalized trips for individuals and couples as larger groups.
The most noteworthy thing about all these events has been the combination of high-quality personal service and exceptionally good prices. Benchmark stands apart from the crowd by combining the two in one stand-out package. I recommend them to you.

We could not recommend your staff more highly. We booked a holiday to Canada including the Rocky Mountaineer. It was a life time dream!
It would never have happened without her guidance and help. The service we received was exceptional.
We also spend a month in Tenerife each year. We have booked through Benchmark for all our holidays for the last 7 years if not longer in that time. We have holidayed in New York, Germany, Canada and Tenerife, each time we have received first class assistance from all members of staff.
I would highly recommend Benchmark Travel to friends and family.
