Finding someone who gets you and you can trust when booking family holidays was terrific. Joan found the balance for us with teenagers down to an 8-month-old baby. Friends recommended we contact Once in a Lifetime Holidays, and Joan exceeded all expectations, understanding the brief and adding little touches that made all the difference. We have already recommended her to others.

We came to Once in a Lifetime Holidays to book a family holiday to celebrate my grandfather's 70th birthday! They found a beautiful hotel in Lanzarote that could accommodate 11 family members and fit all of our requirements. Our agent informed the hotel of the purpose of our trip, and the hotel greeted us with a bottle of Cava and some treats in our room, which was amazing! Our transfers and boarding passes were all arranged, with luggage tags, too! We can't fault the fantastic service.

Once in a Lifetime Holidays was the first place I went to when booking my dream holiday. I knew they wouldn’t disappoint me, and they went above and beyond. Covid restrictions meant we needed to rebook the holiday, which was done without fuss, saving us thousands of Pounds. They helped me navigate all the new Covid travel documents and made sure I knew which Visas I needed for each destination. It could have been a nightmare to plan, but instead, the trip exceeded our expectations!
