“This was the first time we have used Mark Bratt Travel but won't be the last. From the first meeting, Mark asked about our interests and hobbies and the places we wanted to see so these could be used in the itinerary. This cumulated in an amazing 3 week trip to South America that far exceeded our expectations. We had our trip detailed on an app when we were away which was great for all the detail we needed as we travelled a lot.Also, all the local companies Mark used for us (trips/guides/etc) in Peru and Argentina were excellent with great local knowledge. The accommodation was all top quality too. This was especially impressive as we stayed in around 14 different places.I cannot recommend highly enough.”

“Mia organised a surprise trip for me which was a gift to my son and husband (post exams celebration and relax for my hubby). I gave her a brief - country and interests - both hobbies and food/drink). Mia planned a perfect trip - within my budget. Everything was planned to perfection - details were shared in a timely and easily managed way. When it came time to share the news with my family - everything was easy to pass on to them. they had the best time - loved every single part of it and it achieved everything i wanted it to. Absolutely perfect and would highly recommend!”

“I have recently returned from a Mark Bratt Travel railway trip to Switzerland. Mark was excellent throughout, taking our planned itinerary and tailoring it to create a really memorable trip for us. What really came across was Mark’s attention to detail on every part of our trip. The app provided was really easy to use. Unfortunately due to an injury before travel, some adjustments to our itinerary needed to be made. Mark was really helpful and responsive, making changes that allowed us to continue with the holiday and ensuring that our journeys were as smooth as possible. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mark and team!”

“I recently went on an 8 day trip to Sorrento, Ischia and Naples in Italy. I had fairly specific requests in terms of where I wanted to go, how long to stay, type of room, and organised excursions. Mia listened to all of this and created the perfect itinerary, giving two or three alternative accommodation options for each stage. When I went back to her after the first draft, and asked for hotel suggestions in an alternative resort in Ischia, she explained the pros and cons of each resort and each hotel, and then provided two perfect alternatives. The company use an app called trip plans, which gives you the detailed itinerary on your phone, and are excellent at responding to any queries or messages. We had an amazing holiday and everything went like clockwork. The hotel and resort choices were absolutely perfect and the pre-booked excursions were brilliant. I would not hesitate to recommend this company, and plan to use them again for future holidays.”

“From start to finish our trip could not have been planned any better. Scott listened to what we wanted to see and do and came up with the most amazing itinerary. Every step of our trip was thought about and left us with nothing to worry about other than where should we eat every night. We had the most amazing 2 weeks in Japan: 5 hotels in different cities in 15 nights and all train travel booked for us, wifi organised, personal guide on our first full day and lots of helpful hints on getting around and places to visit. Thank you so much for making this such a memorable experience for us both. Stuart & Cathy, Salford, UK”

“There's simply not enough superlatives, from a chat simply saying I'm turning 40 and I'd like to see elephants Scott put together the most incredible trip. It was everything I've ever dreamed of and more. As a solo female traveller, I was nervous but everything was taken care of. From the moment I stepped on the plane at Manchester I was completely taken care of by some of the most wonderful people. Cannot recommend highly enough ⭐🌟 ⭐ 🌟 ⭐”

“Mark and the team organised a retirement celebration trip in Costa Rica va Montreal for us. Absolutely fantastic trip. He understands your travel vibe (previous independent lone back pack types now wanting it a bit easier!) and knows the local offer. They work with local teams so the service both before and during the trip is excellent.Every one of the accommodation over a 4 week trip could not be faulted.If you've any doubts about using an agent and think you can do it better then you've not used Mark Bratt Travel.”

“This was a mini break to celebrate our 40th Wedding Anniversary. I’m so grateful to Mark Bratt for the way he dealt with a problem for us when our Taxi was involved in an accident. He acted swiftly and professionally by rearranging our trip to The Moulin Rouge which we would have lost. He helped us when we needed, without hesitation, when we were in shock after the shock.My wish list was fulfilled in every way and I couldn’t be happier with the service from Mark & Mia 😊”

“We have recently returned from a trip to South Africa to attend a family wedding & explore Cape Town & the Western Cape. Mark & his team could not have been more helpful! They ensured everything ran smoothly - from the moment we arrived to the moment we returned to the UK. Our completely bespoke trip ran like clockwork. Mark took away the stress of arranging accommodation while touring around an area we were unfamiliar with & the guest houses we were booked into were more like small boutique hotels - absolutely beautiful! When we couldn't access a door because there was a keylock we contacted Mark & the problem was resolved within 5 minutes. The app was amazing! Every aspect of our trip was detailed with a click on the day in question - where we were going, suggestions for lunch stops & points of interest along the route. We haven't used a travel agent for many years but this experience has changed our view completely! We will definitely use Mark again & cannot recommend him highly enough!”

“Have just returned from an absolutely fantastic adventure in Namibia with friends. Mark Bratt organised the full itinerary, which was faultless.We were incredibly grateful for all the information that was made available to us on arrival and throughout our journey. The itinerary was spot on and we would not change a thing, the lodges, hotels and nature reserves were stunning, each having their own charm and different. The country is so diverse and packed full of beauty, we feel privileged to have enjoyed the warmth and hospitality and look forward to going back. Thank you Mark and the team, we will be in touch soon to organise our next trip!”

You made my European trip a wonderful experience by finding the right type of accommodation for me, giving helpful notes on the highlights of each city I visited, staying within my budget, and the great use of tech to keep my all of this plus my itinerary in my phone. I have already recommended you to other travelers and will continue to do so. Looking forward to the next time I need your services. MBT exceeded my expectations.”

“Thanks to Mark Bratt Travel for planning a fabulous holiday to Morrocco and our driver Imad who navigated us from city to city. Toured the blue city of Chefchouen, very picturesque. Experienced the hustle and bustle of Fes with its narrow streets and interesting history. Visited Casablanca with a cocktail or two at Rick's cafe. Embraced the chaos and vibrancy of Marrakesh with its busy markets, liveliness all day long and friendly locals. Agafay Stone Desert was an exceptional experience of glamping and some relaxation on the coast at Essauria.... a wonderful holiday!”

“We have just experienced the most incredible trip thanks to Scott. I decided to reach out to a fellow travel advisor because I was not familiar with the UK and figured it would be much better left to someone from the area. We are so happy that we got him to plan our route from Toronto, Canada to eventually see Black Sabbath in Birmingham.He took us from Edinburgh, Scotland to Manchester, with amazing stops in York, Bath, and London. It was literally flawless — he found us the best accommodations while staying within our budget. He was watching when we too the trains and alerted us that our train route had been cancelled with an alternate route for us which worked beautifully.We loved each town and our hotels so much. He even planned our days out in London so that we could maximize our time while making sure to see anything that matters. Such a bucket list trip planned by a true master.Thank you for all that you’ve done for us!!— Lee-Anne and Lisa from Toronto 🇨🇦”

But a recommendation from a friend put us in contact with Scott at MBT who organised the most wonderful and affordable honeymoon across Vietnam. The support whilst we were out there was also brilliant, contact with local guides was made super easy and the MTB were available when needed. Thoroughly recommend MTB!”

“Scott helped us plan our honeymoon to Tanzania and Zanzibar. He planned our dream trip. We were able to sort a website where our wedding guests could contribute directly to activities we were doing on the trip, which was cool. We had plenty of time on safari and saw so many animals (and baby animals!). All of the hotels were amazing and all the people we met were so lovely. It was also really cool that there's an app where we were able to see the times of each activity and be able to communicate directly through it if we had questions. Honestly, I was so worried all my questions were annoying, but Scott answered all of them. Honestly, couldn't recommend enough! <3”

“We booked our honeymoon through Mark Bratt Travel, through a friend's recommendation, and it was genuinely one of the best decisions we made. Scott, our travel agent, was exceptional from the very start. In just three months, he managed to help us plan the most incredible three-week trip across the US – from the buzz of New York to the soul of New Orleans, with several carefully chosen stops along the way. Everything was arranged: flights, hotels, excursions and car hire, every detail was covered.From our first consultation, Scott took the time to understand what we wanted, helping us shape the trip around our budget while still finding the best possible experiences and accommodations. His array of knowledge and eye for detail made all the difference, nothing felt rushed or generic.During the trip, we were involved in an unfortunate accident (completely unrelated to Mark Bratt Travel), and Scott went above and beyond; staying in touch, ensuring we were safe, and even contacting our upcoming hotels to inform them of the situation – the care and support we received was outstanding and we never felt alone, despite being so far away.If you're looking for a travel agency that combines speed, personal service, and genuine care, I couldn’t recommend Mark Bratt Travel enough. They turned our dream trip into a reality...and did it all in record time! Thank you Scott and Mark Bratt Travel!”

Mark and his team make the process so easy, especially for groups like us, taking care of multiple payments, Passport information, and booking all your transport for the trip. We particularly like the MBT Travel app which details your itinery in detail, from Airport info,Transfers, Travel documents, Hotel info and emergency numbers all together in one place.Bob Massey (the Avalanche gang)”

“My wife and I have just returned from the most amazing trip to Argentina organised by Mark Bratt Travel. Leading up to our holiday, Mark listened to our original thoughts on where we wanted to go and really added value by suggesting additional destinations we wouldn’t have thought to go to ourselves. Those suggestions became highlights in their own right and MBT crafted a really well thought out itinerary that had just the right combination of adventure, exploration and relaxation. We lost count of how many times we said ‘Wow!’ during our trip.The planning and preparation leading up to our holiday was meticulous and the communication through the Trip Plans app whilst we were away was first class. The smooth running of all our (very well chosen) accommodation, travel and activities meant all we had to focus on was enjoying ourselves - whether horse riding with gauchos, trekking on a glacier or wine tasting in a vineyard. This in particular was where the personal touch provided by Mark Bratt Travel really showed its worth. I can’t recommend them highly enough.”

“Mark organised an amazing trip for us to Myanmar and Cambodia. One of the best holidays we've had. Mark was very patient in answering all my questions and he managed to tick all the boxes of our asks for the holiday! Myanmar is an amazing country and we've had great experiences - boat riding on Inle Lake, motorbike riding in Kanpalet, horse cart riding in Mandalay and a brilliant balloon ride over Bagan!! We also went to the fire balloon festival, which is usually held around full moon in November and the experience was brilliant - seeing balloons lit up with lanterns and some exploding into fireworks!!On the ground, the arrangements were flawless from our guides being knowledgeable to helping us with check in and bag drop offs for internal flights. Even in Cambodia the experience was amazing. All accommodation was brilliant and carefully selected. We loved it all. Will definitely use Mark Bratt Travel again and would recommend to all. Well done Mark and Co and thank you!January 2025!!We've enjoyed another amazing trip organised by Mark Bratt Travel and this time to Luxor, Egypt. Scott was great in arranging everything to our requirements and at short notice. I value the support provided pre ad during holiday for any issues, and we had a minor issue which was immediately picked up and resolved by the team! Amazing service. Has become our go to travel agent for arranging something that needs more planning and organisation!”

We had a wonderful hotel and a brilliant guide and driver all to ourselves rather than join a big tour group. Although we had an itinerary, we could flex it to suit ourselves and add extras. We will definitely be booking again with this company, a brilliant experience all round”

Mark Bratt Travel helped us to design our holiday and suggested places we would not have considered but which turned out to be highlights. The whole planning process was done incrementally and we were involved at each stage. MBT arranged all the flights, hotels, pickups and guides. The entire holiday went very smoothly with no hitches supported by an excellent Trip App. We will certainly be using MBT again and will recommend them to our friends.”

“Mark did a great job understanding what sort of holiday we were looking for. The hotel was excellent- fantastic breakfast, comfy beds, good size rooms, plenty of sun beds, spa, welcoming staff and we ate in the restaurant for dinner one evening and the food was amazing. Mark arranged two tours - TukTuk around Lisbon which was informative and lots of fun, and a jeep safari around sintra, stopping off to see some sights, have lunch and also go off road too. Great holiday, mix of relaxing and adventure- wish we’d gone for 10 nights as didn’t want to come home!”

The service received on both occasions was second to none, Mark is great at listening to your requirements and then finding something to not only match but exceed what you had in mind.On both occasions his suggestions enhanced the holiday massively, helping us experience parts of the countries we were in that we otherwise would've missed.I can't recommend Mark enough if you have a bespoke trip in mind and don't know where to go. Or even if you're looking for some advice on enhancements to a trip you're already planning.”

We asked for a very specific combo trip of going to Japan to do some skiing and then going on to the Maldives for a lot of sun and relaxing. They organised everything from start to finish and we didn't have to worry about anything. They listened to all our requests, were easily contactable and even easily made some last minute changes. Would wholeheartedly recommend.”

“We’ve approached Mark Bratt Travel to organise a few trips for us and for our family a few times now. We’ve loved each one.We’re not the most adventurous or experienced travellers and have a young family. We like to use Mark (my cousin - full disclosure!) because he provides us with options and experiences we wouldn’t necessarily think of ourselves. We put our faith in his expertise to organise an adventure that helps creates moments and memories for our family. As an example, in 2021, we wanted to use Mark to book a trip to Tenerife, but ended up with an unforgettable holiday in Phuket for roughly the same price!We’re just back from spending New Year in New York. Mark organised flights, transfers, hotels and recommended/booked excursions. Luck was on our side for the whole trip and everything went smoothly with the travelling. On this occasion, there was no need to contact Mark during the trip, although on prior trips, he’s been on hand to resolve logistical issues quickly.Our hotel in New York was perfectly located for us to set from each day as we clocked up the steps each day. Having everything in one place on the app, and having that available offline, helped with keeping tabs on what we were doing and when.When a friend recommended we try something called ‘The Ride’, we used Mark to get feedback from his peers in the industry to decide on whether to book or not. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and so we booked and had a great time. It’s this kind of service and guidance that we find extra helpful and reliable.Thank you Mark, again!”

“Scott created a wonderful trip to Cuba for us in March 2023. He took the hassle out of putting together the itinerary, asking us about our interests and priorities to make sure the trip was tailored to us. The app where your itinerary is saved is very useful, and it's also a means of communicating with Scott while you're away. The local guides that we were paired with in Cuba were all excellent; friendly and informative. The excursions that were planned for us were brilliant, from city walking tours, to a classic car ride around Havana to a gentle trek into a national park complete with a swim in a natural pond. We loved Cuba and the whole trip was made hassle-free thanks to Mark Bratt Travel.”

I couldn't have asked for a more perfectly planned trip. Mark suggested lots of activities and experiences that he thought I might enjoy based on our conversation and I signed up to them all which I really feel helped me be immersed in the local culture.My local guide/driver Anji was amazing - he was so warm and welcoming. He really went above and beyond to take care of me and suggest things that he knew I'd like and adapt things on days we had some free time.”

They went above and beyond to make our holiday so special. Once again, THANK YOU!”

“This is the second time we have booked with Mark Bratt Travel (MBT) following a brilliant trip to South Africa. We had such an amazing time, we completely trusted MBT to organise our next holiday…a trip to see the ancient ruins of Egypt.When we approached MBT about Egypt, they were totally honest and said that they hadn’t sent anyone to these parts of Egypt before (Luxor, Aswan, Abu Simbel & Cairo) but were keen to do so. We had done plenty of research about the ancient sites and how best to see them so sent the team an interesting itinerary which was being offered by a larger corporate company and asked them to try and piece together something similar, with a more bespoke slant. After a few consultations, we had decided on the perfect holiday and booked it! A week before we were due to fly, we met with Scott who went through our itinerary step by step to ensure we felt as comfortable as possible. This is another great feature of MBT.A few highlights of using MBT for this trip:- Great choice of local travel agent, including the guides. MBT found the perfect guides for us through a great agency in Egypt. We had two guides throughout the trip and both were incredibly knowledgable and local to the area. In addition to this, they were warm, engaging and lovely people. This really made the trip an unforgettable experience for us.- Itinerary - we spoke to quite a few groups throughout our time in Egypt and none had an itinerary quite like ours. The work done by Scott and the team to select the right flights for arrivals and departures meant we really maximised our time in Egypt and could see some ancient ruins that weren’t usually included in the package tours (I.e. Abu Simbel, Valley of the Queens), whilst still having enough free time to relax. The order of our events planned by MBT was also perfect as it didn’t clash with the larger group tours that also visit these parts of Egypt. We found our itinerary meant we could visit the main attractions at times when other groups were travelling to other sites or changing locations.- Mobile app - this is a great addition to the MBT package. It contains all the information you need for your trip (tickets, dates, times, contacts, communication with the MBT team)- Location and choice of hotels - MBT really listen to the “brief” provided by clients. This means they really understand what is important to their clients and work hard to match up their preferences to options available, that were always in line with budgetary constraints. For our Egypt trip, Scott got this spot on and our hotels were beautiful and in great locations for us to explore local areas and have convenient transfers.We had a couple of hiccups with some practical aspects of the trip (miscommunications with hotels and Nile cruise company) but MBT (Scott especially) was quick to respond and worked his magic to sort out the issues so it didn’t impact our holiday.However, even with these minor hiccups, the trip was a total success and is an experience we will never forget. We have yet to find an independent travel agent who is able to match, never mind go above, what MBT can offer. I’d highly recommend MBT and we will use them again for our next big trip.”

“Absolutely perfect from start to finish. Scott, our travel consultant was really thorough in his understanding of what we wanted and his consultative approach and wide knowledge were hugely appreciated given we were considering areas of the world we had never visited.We were celebrating a special occasion and it was tricky for us to manage the fact that we wanted our first proper luxury holiday, but on a tight-ish budget. Scott worked really hard to secure us a great deal, and he put together the most memorable, awesome trip imaginable.I would recommend Mark Bratt Travel 100%. They delivered the holiday of a lifetime, and I have them, and in particular Scott, to thank for us creating so many epic memories on the most wonderful trip.”

“Scott at Mark Bratt planned our, in his words, 'Epic US Honeymoon'. Epic doesn't do it justice. Absolutely everything went without a hitch, and every hotel, car hire place, trip, was expecting us, and wished us a happy Honeymoon! We even got complimentary upgrades in a couple of places! There is no way we could have organised this trip ourselves. The expert knowledge, attention to detail, and the tips on where to go and what to see on the detailed trip plan were invaluable. Can't wait to plan our next trip - I'll never make the mistake of booking a holiday without speaking to Scott again. Thank you guys, for everything - you were amazing”

“We used Mark and the team to source and plan our honeymoon, and we couldn't have been happier with it. From the initial ideas and briefing call, to the brilliant app that contains all the detail you need, Mark made it super easy for us to travel from place to place within Italy. The hotels and trips were all excellent, and even when we did have a minor complaint with one of the hotels, Mark was immediately available to help us sort it out. Absolutely no hassle; the perfect way to plan a trip for anyone short on ideas, time or just wanting a safe pair of hands. We are already onto thinking about the next one with Mark!”

Whether it's mountains, lovely 'saxon style' towns or wetlands with birdwatching, castles, pretty villages, throw in some bear watching and stay in a farm. It's all here on this trip.Romania is really for someone seeking a bit of an adventure and for us it was perfect.Marks attention to detail was spot on and the app on our phones with all the details worked really well.We loved it.Cheers ...can't wait for the next trip with you.Andrew & Valerie Leach”

Everything was so well organised, the app was brilliant and Mark was so quick to come back to us on any questions we had (which was quite a few after 3 years of no travelling)I genuinely can't recommend Mark enough, the holiday was above and beyond what we expected and he took out all the stress of travelling especially when covid restrictions are still confusing.Thank you so muchJaney & Pete”

Having travelled many times before, this was my first since Covid, to Kenya & I was a little worried. With Mark all my fears & uncertainty were taken away, I knew I was in safe hands. If you are looking for a professional personal touch, where your needs matter, then this is the gold star company for you.”

Both villas we stayed in were gorgeous and the little extras they arranged made the whole trip extra special.Even with the madness of the pandemic and international rules, we didn’t have to worry about anything, Scott made sure we had all the info we needed and knew what do when, we won’t hesitate to book our next holiday with Mark Bratt Travel again, they helped make our honeymoon an unforgettable holiday!”

“We first booked a trip with Mark Bratt in January 2020… we were due to travel in April that year, but that trip was cancelled due to the Covid pandemic.At a time when many were struggling to get to speak to travel companies, Scott spoke to us directly and constantly about the ongoing situation and we had a full refund by the time we should have flown home.After the amazing service then we vowed to book our next ‘proper’ trip with Mark Bratt.Fast forward to August 2021… we decided to work with Scott again to design and book a dream trip to Greece. Yet again he spent time speaking to us in detail about what we wanted from a holiday, and getting to know us in more detail to ensure he knew what WE wanted. Another perfect trip was booked, including time in Athens, Naxos and Santorini.Second time was not to be..: and despite booking 6 days before departure - we had to cancel again due to testing positive for Covid!Yet again, all the stress of cancelling was dealt with professionally and meant something really stressful didn’t seem quite as bad!We rebooked two weeks later and had an amazing holiday. Every step of the trip was exceptional - holidays had been matched perfectly to our needs and preferences in the different locations. The hotels were all fantastic and the transfers were seamless.Scott was on hand throughout the process to handle questions and concerns when travelling in a Covid world - and his support made our trip amazing.I can not recommend Scott and the team highly enough. Despite the ongoing pressures within their industry, Mark Bratt continue to put the customer first and go above and beyond to not only design bespoke and personalised trips, but also to ensure that travel can again be stress free and enjoyable, I have never experienced such amazing customer service within any industry.Thank you and we can’t wait to book our next holiday with you.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value”

“At a time of such uncertainty, having a company that gives you the confidence to travel is priceless. We originally booked a 2 week holiday to California, which Scott arranged.He took all our ideas and turned them into an amazing looking, bespoke trip of a life time! Then Covid happened. Scott kept in touch with us and gave us options such as moving the holiday at no extra cost. We decided to do that but then restrictions got tighter and California just couldn't happen. Scott understood and was very flexible, allowing us to move our deposit to a Scotland break. The hotels and places Scott planned were amazing. The communication was excellent and the app they use with trip details is really clever and handy. Mid break Scott kept on eye on changing restrictions in Scotland and contacted hotels ahead of our arrival to ensure all was still ok.We will certainly be booking with Mark Bratt Travel again, regardless of whether it is for a UK break or internationally. The communication and attention to detail is second to none and the value for money is superb. Thanks Scott! Positive Responsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value”

“These guys did an amazing job for us on our USA trip 2019. I had an idea which started as a conversation, me and my partner wanted to explore the West Coast, but after a friendly meeting/meal and after a few alterations to the initial trip plan (which Scott was very patient about) we settled on a insane itinerary, it was nice to talk to people who got excited about travel, and not just a typical commission only travel agent. The rest is history and we pulled it off, pretty much everything went as predicted and it was a trip we'll never forget. I can't thank Scott and Mark enough, they worked so hard for us and we could not have done it without their knowledge, that's really the specialism here, anyone can Google search but the amount of time and effort is not cost effective for busy people, this really is an awesome and unique business/service. I will always be using these guys for major trips once every other year! Thanks again chaps...you really are experts at this!”

“Mark arranged for me to do a safari with Nyange Tours in Moshi, Tanzania and it was awesome! All the arrangements worked as planned and Mark managed to rearrange my pickup at short notice late on a Friday afternoon. This was extremely efficient (and welcome!) service. I can't help thinking this is a bonus of using a small company.The tour was wonderful. The tour company are well established and know what they are doing. The guide, Edwin, was just brilliant. He's a charming man and he knows all there is to know about the national parks and explains it clearly and simply in excellent English. We were lucky to get him. And we saw everything except a rhino, including lions in trees which is very rare, apparently. Kinda scarey, too, when you're in an open top vehicle and four large lions are balancing on tree branches right above you!Altogether, I recommend without any quibbles booking a trip with Nyange Tours via Mark Bratt Travel - you won't get a better deal or a better experience.”

We got married in the USA and they made sure a group of us were on the same flight, they planned our guests holidays who wanted to see more of the U.S and even got people already in the U.S on the same flights to where we got married. they organised our road trip honeymoon afterwards which also included tours in different places and they were not your cheap thrown in tours they were really good. On top of everything they did this at a very reasonable price. I will be booking future holidays with them for certain!”

He made sure that we had the best options to suit a baby, in terms of flights and transfers. As always communion was excellent and he really went the extra mile when our airline was planning strike action. His attention to detail also meant that we could just sit back and enjoy our holiday, a lovely ten days in the Algarve, safe in the knowledge that the bookings had all been taken care of. We would definitely recommend Mark Bratt Travel and will be using the company again in the future no doubt.”

Mark went over and beyond for every detail on our budget conscious honeymoon while happily answering every question we had honestly and in a timely manner.We utilized the travel app throughout the trip for a quick reference on things to do, places to eat and our day to day schedule for the full 15 days. This was such a helpful bonus for booking with Mark. Also, it was reassuring to know that he was readily available on What’s App if anything came up during our travels.We will definitely be using him for our anniversary trips!! Thanks Mark.”

Really nice mix of experiences ranging from nature reserves, orangutan sanctuary, jungle, riverboat trips, UNESCO sites, canopy walks, private villa, city break and beach resort. We loved it!”

“We booked our honeymoon with Mark, everything went very smoothly. There were no issues with any of our flights, hotel bookings and transfers.We started off in Kavala. We weren't too sure what to expect from it, but it was amazing, It really is a busy bustling port, the city is beautiful with lots to see as you walk around, and the food was incredible. We would never have gone here if it weren’t for Mark pushing us out of our comfort zone!Mark found us a little gem of a hotel called The Imaret. We were invited us to a tasting menu the hotel was holding in the hotel with Nico Lazaridi, who we found out afterwards is a pretty prominent greek winemaker. We've never stayed anywhere like this before, it was really special, lovely and peaceful after the busy run up to the wedding, and we're really glad that was the first part of the honeymoon.The second leg of our honeymoon we went to Sani Resort. Where we were really glad Mark helped us pre-book some of the restaurants, which was essential to getting into many of the restaurants.”

“Mark is simply the BEST. Mark was referred to my husband and I from our elopement planner to organize a 5+ week honeymoon through Italy, Morocco and Spain. I was initially on the fence to use his company for my travel plans as I am from the U.S. and being that his company is based out of the U.K. I knew we would be paying more because of the conversion from GBP to USD. After our very first Skype call, the extra cost didn’t matter. I had full confidence that Mark and his team would plan out the exact trip we wanted. Mark’s extreme attention to detail is nothing I have ever experienced before with travel companies in the past. Every single aspect of our trip was mapped out perfectly and he made it so easy with the app and physical copies of everything we would possibly need to know about where we were going. Anytime we had a question or just wanted his opinion about something small like “tipping” Mark would answer us within just a few minutes. Mark is the epitome of “service and detail”....on top of that he has a great personality and we really loved getting to know him. I can not wait to plan our next trip with him. We are now forever customers of his and i have been raving about him and the trip he planned for us to everyone! Thank you Mark and team for giving us the trip of a lifetime.-Meaghann & Carlos Martinez”

They couldn’t have been more complimentary about the care and service they received from Mark and his team.My wife and I decided to travel to India for just shy of a month for our honeymoon. After a couple of long and insightful phone conversations with Mark he created a perfect tailor-made itinerary which gave us and incredible mix of magical India.The trip was a perfectly balance of bustling cities, mountain excursions, plantations, beaches and breath-taking sights. Complete with guides, drivers and the occasional stray cow.A handy app complete with itinerary and Mark’s instant WhatsApp responses even over the festive period, always left us worry free and at ease whilst encountering at times overwhelming experiences.We returned to England exhausted, jubilant and wanting to get our next travel fix!Neither my wife or I would hesitate in recommending Mark Bratt Travel to any would be globe trotter.

His suggestion of a self drive holiday in Romania, was something we would never have thought of and was exciting and different from just a beach holiday.His plan for us in Romania couldn't have gone more smoothly or enjoyable. From the flight to the accommodation, everything was made easy for us, so we could just relax and enjoy our time away. With added benefits of an app that included all our booking information and an easy way to contact him if necessary (where else do you get that kind of service that means even if you are away, Mark is still there to help!).From the vibrant bustling Bucharest, to the beautiful hills of Transylvania ending in the tranquil Danube Delta, we came away with a love for Romania and would definitely go back again.We will definitely use Mark again in the future and would tell others not to hesitate to contact him and see what he can offer for your next adventure, whether you have a destination in mind, or haven't.”
