Our clients testimonials
We have used Au-Revoir Travel for all our overseas trips for a number of years now and would never dream of using anyone else.
​
​Whether it be flights, hotels or tours, the dedicated team take all the stress out of holiday planning as they do everything, leaving you nothing other than to pack your cases. It makes the trips even more memorable knowing you can be confident with your bookings.
​
We had an unfortunate medical situation in Thailand in 2019 and Au-Revoir were amazing as they kept in constant contact with me during the whole episode and even assisted with claiming unused flights.
A special thank you to Sam who has always gone out of her way to look after us over the years with our numerous trips, we can’t wait to be planning many more with her in the near future.

Dear Clive
​
Thank you for more great advice that has continued over 25 years now!
​
We had an amazing time looking over Soweto with the Rise to Freedom Tour. There was also a big market on near the hotel in Rosebank on the Sunday where we heard a children’s marimba band.
​
The Kwando experience was beyond expectation and we were left both informed and relaxed. Botswanan people have got hospitality down to a fine art.
​
Mauritius broke the flight home well and the driver from White Sands Tours (who we hired for a full day) was both earnest and informative. The Maritim lived up to its boasts on the net.
​
Thanks again for sending us to Botswana- the desert and the swamp – cocktails at sunset will stay with us for a long time.
​
Dear Sam
​
I have had 15 yrs and 20 plus destinations across the globe arranged by Sam Gallaher and the Au Revoir team.
​
Sam has advised, arranged and confirmed all my trip requirements and I am very happy to highly recommend Au Revoir travel to assist you for all your travel requirements.
​
Just on the Covid19 bans and restrictions, I know that Sam and the team have worked diligently week after week to obtain Refunds & Credits for 2 trips I had already booked for earlier this year
Thank you Sam.Graham

Dear Steph
​​
We have been associated with Au Revoir Travel for many years and during this period they have arranged numerous overseas holidays for us.
Service has been first class and all arrangements made have gone according to plan.
Recently we experienced passport issues whilst holidaying in Italy which necessitated change of plans for our trip home. This was attended to promptly and to our complete satisfaction.
Au Revoir are to be complimented for the stance they have taken in regard to the Covid19 pandemic. ​
Their understanding and assistance at this very difficult time has been much appreciated.
