“I cannot speak highly enough of Maggie and the incredible team at The Travel Wallet for orchestrating the honeymoon of our dreams in Sri Lanka this past February. From the moment we began planning, Maggie’s attention to detail and expertise shone through, ensuring every aspect of our journey was not only flawless but also tailored to our preferences.
Our experience in Sri Lanka was nothing short of magical, thanks to the meticulous planning by The Travel Wallet. One of the highlights was undoubtedly our personal chauffeur and guide, Chandra, whose warmth, knowledge, and professionalism enriched our journey immeasurably. Under his guidance, we were able to immerse ourselves fully in the culture and beauty of Sri Lanka.
The accommodations selected for us were simply exquisite, ranging from luxurious hotels to charming villas, each offering unparalleled comfort and serenity. Waking up to breath-taking views and unwinding in such beautiful settings truly added to the romantic ambiance of our honeymoon.
Exploring Sri Lanka’s wildlife was a truly unforgettable experience, particularly encountering over 30 majestic elephants at the national park. The tranquil atmosphere of the temples we visited and the awe-inspiring history we encountered while climbing Sigiriya and exploring 12th-century ruins left an indelible impression on us.
The train journey across the East of Sri Lanka was a highlight of our trip, offering us the opportunity to marvel at the verdant tea plantations and picturesque countryside from the comfort of our seats. It was a journey that allowed us to connect with the heart and soul of Sri Lanka in a way that will stay with us forever.
Thanks to Maggie and the entire team at The Travel Wallet, our honeymoon surpassed all expectations and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Their dedication to crafting unforgettable experiences ensured that every moment was filled with joy, wonder, and romance. We are immensely grateful for their expertise and passion and would wholeheartedly recommend The Travel Wallet to anyone seeking a truly magical travel experience.”

Hi Maggie,
We can’t thank Maggie and the Travel Wallet team enough for arranging our recent holiday. Another brilliantly organised, bespoke trip taking in Singapore on the way out followed by a 5 week motorhome trip around New Zealand, finishing with a stopover to take in Sydney on our return journey. Everything ran like clockwork.
The hotels selected were perfect to meet our needs and the luxury private transfers were much appreciated after our long flights. With Maggie and the Travel Wallet’s team knowledge and attention to detail we’re sure they must have also had a hand in organising the perfect weather we experienced. This was our fifth holiday organised for us by the team and we’ll certainly be back in touch with them soon to plan our next adventure!

Hi Maggie and Co,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for arranging my recent trip to Berlin on the Orient Express. What can I say about this experience, other than it was incredible from start to finish. The food and service we received on board was exceptional and the hotel we stayed at in Berlin was amazing.
I would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting a little bit of luxury with outstanding service. Thank you again for booking our little getaway.

Hi Maggie and Co,
A gin and tonic from the rooftop bar in Ho Chi Minh. Weather is hot – 97%
humidity. Cu Chi Tunnels, various museums and markets done in the last
couple of days. Fascinating city.
Will see you when we get back but thanks for the 5* service yet again.
Penny and Ian
Hi Maggie,
I hope you are well. Just wanted to say that our trip has been awesome! Another triumph! Thanks so much. I will put together a small report as normal probably in the Autumn when things quieten down, but just wanted to say how fabulous it has been. The Fallsview room at Niagara was something else.
Thanks Maggie!

Holidays should be a hassle free event
Holidays should be a time when one can relax in a worry free environment.And if anything does go astray there should be a simple, single point of contact for resolution of the issue.With Maggie and her team at The Travelwallet all these points can be answered confidently with one answer – yes! They know the business inside out and they are so professional in care to detail, you get exactly as planned for. When I go on a holiday organised by.The Travelwallet I know I can totally devote myself to the joys of the places I am visiting without having to use valuable time thinking/planning about what happens next!Travel wallet have organised a range of different holidays for us over the last seven years which have included cruises to the Galapagos Islands, Antarctica and the islands of the Atlantic Ocean and have produced wonderful tailor-made nine week trips often involving over 15 stopovers in a variety of hotels/motels, hire of cars and trains, booking of flights – both international and domestic and organisation of visas and travel permits to a variety of countries including Canada (including polar bear trekking!), New Zealand, Australia, and the Azores. Despite the complexity of some of our holidays, nothing has ever gone wrong, no detail has ever been overlooked; our visits have been a smooth operation from start to finish. And now Maggie is in the process of organising our future holidays to the South Pacific and the Black Sea/Mediterranean.
Bon voyage!

Hi Jane & Vicki
Royal Meridien Dubai
I just wanted to thank you for arranging a fantastic holiday. We both loved it, and will absolutely be returning to Dubai.The flights were great times, the hotel excellent, and the food and service wonderful. I don’t need to mention the weather of course…
We kept our sea view room – which to us, was definitely worth it. We would highly recommend this hotel, and can see why you repeatedly book there.
HELLO FROM LANZAROTE!
Hi Maggie,
Thought we’d let you know the Hotel Volcan is excellent – the adults only area just what we were looking for – nice and quiet and with all the amenities you need, very comfortable and location in Playa Blanca spot on!
Have attached a pic of the view from our room towards Fuerteventura. Weather a big improvement on the UK!!
Regards, Mark & Rosemary
Dear Maggie, Liz and Team
We are having a lovely time at the Iberostar Anthelia in Costa Adeji, organised by yourselves through Jet 2. This is an excellent hotel in a great location, a bit away from the general busy touristy area, but with everything very accessible a short walk away. Lovely rooms, gardens, pools, food and great staff. If we returned to Tenerife this is where we would choose to stay.
We headed out of Birmingham blasted by a cold wind and light snow, but will be arriving back to the melt. Unfortunately there are rumours of a gushing outside tap at home – but we’ll deal with that on our return and hope our daughter found the stop tap.
Best wishes

Dear Maggie and the whole team at the Travel Wallet.
I would like to thank you all for arranging my recent fabulous extended trip, which included Singapore, Melbourne, New Zealand, Sydney and Bangkok.
From my first initial ‘drop in’ to enquire about a tour of New Zealand, through to you getting to know and understand my needs, to exploring various options for extending my trip, through to the booking of hotels, flights and various extras it was seamless and stress free and a pleasure for me to sit back and have the experts take over!
I would highly recommend anyone looking for a group tour of New Zealand to go with Grand Pacific Tours, NZ Coach Holiday Specialist. They take coach touring up a number of notches. A fantastic 19 day tour of both Islands.
Travel Wallet, thank you again… you know your stuff for sure. I now have my upcoming Japan trip to look forward to, again your research and knowledge helped in finding the ‘right fit’ for me so thanks again…

Fabulous trip to Khao Lak in Thailand for New Year. Wonderful hotel and yet another great trip organised through the lovely staff at the Travelwallet. So far they have got us fabulous trips to Iceland, Australia, New Zealand and Thailand. We will be in soon to get the next adventure booked!
Thank you, Penny Lock
We would like to say a big thank you to Maggie, for arranging our ‘Dream of a Lifetime’ holiday to New Zealand. From the first time we sat down with Maggie and told her our ideas, because of her extensive knowledge, she gave us all the information we would need to plan our journey. When it came to booking, everything was done for us, from flights, accommodation, car hire, excursions and our complete itinerary. As a result of this, our holiday in New Zealand was definitely a ‘Dream Holiday’, that we haven’t stopped talking about. We would highly recommend staying at least 3 days in each destination in New Zealand, to fully appreciate all that there is to see and do. Akaroa, Dunedin, Queenstown, Franz Josef, Picton, Wellington, Napier, Hobbiton, Rotorua and Auckland are some of the places that we stayed, and visited numerous others on our journey.
Thank you again, Ray and Delvine Attwell
We have used The Travel Wallet on a number of previous occasions and had no worries in asking Maggie and her team to put together an itinerary for an extended trip to Brazil which we were primarily making to attend a wedding.
Our confidence was most certainly rewarded in every aspect of our travels, which included internal flights, courtesy transfers and pick-ups, guided tours and accommodation.
From the initial planning with Sunvil South America to the actual ‘adventure’, everthing happened as planned. A truly memorable trip made so easy by your detailed organisation. Thank you.

Dear Jane & The Travel Wallet
Thank you so much for organising our last minute holiday to Fiscardo in Kephalonia . We had such a good holiday and would highly recommend the Waterfront Apartment and the resort itself as being truly Greek .They were a very high standard .As a result we have had a very relaxing and memorable holiday . Thank you

Good Afternoon Mags,
I trust this finds you well. Just wanted to thank you for looking after Doug D’Aubrey and his travel arrangements to South Africa. I knew you would work your customary magic. Doug was very pleased and said your professionalism and real interest in him as a customer shone through. He had approached several other travel consultants who had left him very disillusioned. Doug mentioned his travel woes to me at a recent BNI meeting and I immediately thought of the Travel Wallet.
Thanks again Mags, I will continue to recommend you.
Regards, Duncan Piper
Maggie arranged our trip to US/Canada in June – everything was taken care of and we had the best time. Nothing was too much trouble and all our questions were answered. We had an amazing time and will definitely book our next trip at the Travel Wallet!

Hi Maggie
From the streets of San Francisco to my sunbed in St Lucia. This was our second tailor made holiday with the Travelwallet and it met our every expectation. This time we started with 4 days in San Francisco where TW booked us into a lovely hotel in the perfect location. They also organised our trip to Alcatraz which saved all the stress of sorting it ourselves. Our hire car was awaiting us ready for our trip to Healdsburg in Sonoma county, perfect positioning for the wine tasting tours. Finally once we’d had enough of the wine off we flew to St Lucia to my perfect haven in the sun. The team at TW know exactly which Hotel would be best for us and our friends and it had everything we asked for from the spa for the girls to water sports for my friend and I. I spent 8 wonderful days learning to sail in the morning and drinking rum punch in the afternoons. Absolute heaven. If you are looking for something that is a little bit special and not just a standard package I would whole heartedly recommend Maggie and her Team. This even beat our Thailand trip she organised.
Mike Laycock and Party
Hi Maggie,
This is just a quickie email to let you know that our Canada trip was a dream!
We loved it, you did a wonderful job! I will prepare a proper thank you letter when I get chance but just wanted to let you know that it was all wonderful.
Thanks Maggie

Hello my lovely Vicki,
Just wanted to say what a wonderful time we had in Venice. Such an amazing place.
Hotel was just amazing and would highly recommend it, perfect
location……nice and quiet and away from the Rialto bridge area
which was very busy and too touristy. ??
Complementary water taxi to San Marco each evening (€60 each way if you have to pay) Staff were great, rooms superb and modern it was just perfect.
Private water taxi was brilliant, the way to arrive!!
Thank you again so much for organising such a wonderful trip, your just a star!!.
my best top travel executive

Hi Maggie, Bobby and Vicky,
We have just returned from a wonderful Viking River cruise down the Danube. It was wonderfully organised by you all and the standards on the ship were superb. Thank you also for organising disability assistance for Robert at both airports which was extremely helpful.
We would recommend you to anyone, thank you.
Robert and Margaret Simpson
Hi Jane,
I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful holiday with Insight Travel. Our guide was the best in the country – professional, knowledgeable and good fun. Nothing was too much trouble.
As Insight have a big following in Australia, New Zealand , Canada and America we shared the tour with only one other couple from the UK -the rest were from those countries.
The banter was great fun and there was much laughter!
Hotels were always the best available in any given town and we cannot fault the tour. Would definitely travel with them again – many of our fellow travellers have used them for years.
Regards Vivienne & Peter
Hi Bobby,
Just a quick note to thank you for organising our holiday, which was fantastic. Cyplon holidays organisation was first rate, we really appreciated their top quality service.

Hi Maggie
Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to you and your team for all you did to make my recent holiday one of the best experiences of my life!Everything worked out really well – and the excursions you were able to get me included on, were wonderful!It isn’t often that I feel happy spending longer than 5-7 days away from home but this was a time when I felt totally relaxed the entire time.

Dear All
Thank you so much for planning our most perfect holiday. Your consideration and experience was priceless!
From Caroline Heatley, Tim and John
Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. Consultation at booking time really nailed down exactly what we wanted then Maggie came up with a perfect itinerary for our New York trip even down to the best seats to get in business class. Thoroughly recommend Travel Wallet. Will definitely be coming back for our next adventure.
Take Care,
Lis Roberts

I booked with Maggie at The Travelwallet , we told her what we wanted and she came back with some options and we booked a two week holiday to Angela Suites Boutique Hotel Sisi,Crete. From the moment we stepped off the plane we had the most amazing time. The hotel was beautiful and they had upgraded our room which overlooked the sea and the gardens.
All the staff were extremely friendly and the food and cocktails were delicious.
Maggie couldn’t have done enough for us. She listened to the type of holiday we wanted and picked the perfect place for us. Thank you so much, we will definitely be booking with the travel wallet again!!!
Thank you
Ben and Katie Hunter
We always book with Maggie Rogers and her team at the Travel Wallet as she offers a really personal service. She keeps copies of our passports which saves us time when booking and the team always go the extra mile to help with booking airport hotels and parking, getting us an aisle seat on the plane (one of us doesn’t travel well) and even helping us fill in our visa application …. a really personal service!
Hopefully they’ll get through this time
Thank you
Anne and Myra
Maggie and the team at The Travelwallet have booked a number of holidays for us over the years. Their expertise in making sure we get to do exactly what we want, and how, is why we return to them each time.
We value their in-depth knowledge of the industry and attention to detail, something you don’t get with on-line booking.
Maggie is always interested in feedback after our trips which she uses to help shape our future holidays and to advise other customers.
On our last trip to NZ we chose a list of things we wanted to see and do from several different itineraries and guide books, then Maggie tailor-made our trip exactly as we wanted. We can’t recommend The Travelwallet highly enough.
Regards
Annie and Paul Askew

Kind regards,

Hi Maggie.
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for a fantastic holiday to South Africa.The hotels were great and the transfers were punctual and smooth. The travel guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The highlight was the safari, we’ll never forget the huge herd of elephants as they trundled across in front of us. Thanks again.

Mandy Leek Crook
Best service all the way from all of the girls. Maggie has organised two Taylor made trips to America in the past and made sure all of our needs were catered for. We are now looking forward to our Cuban trip only a week to go very excited. Thanks girls you’re the best and a little diamond of a Travel agent in our town.

Vicki went above and beyond for me last summer and arranged a very last minute (5 days notice) trip to Greece for myself and my husband. The apartment was beautiful and she took all the stress of organising such a wonderful trip away from us. Thank you for your excellent customer service.
