Testimonials

Excellent service by both First Travel & the Centre Staff.

Staff Member, Hamilton College

We cannot recommend First Travel and the Centre enough. From the moment we re-booked the residential, following our visit last year, everything was dealt with promptly. Changes that needed to be made were accommodated and we felt supported during each step of the process, by Leanne and Rick. All forms are sent within plenty of time and are easy to complete. The Centre is in a beautiful location, where the grounds are well kept and there is plenty of space for the children to explore. The staff are exceptional, in particular the Centre staff who took a genuine interest in getting to know our children and were full of knowledge about the area.
