Stress free honeymoon booking

We met Julie at a couple of wedding fayres and knew that we wanted to book our Honeymoon with her. She is so friendly and easy to get on with, and it felt like we had known her for years. She is very knowledgeable and trusting. Would highly recommend.

Excellent Service Througout

We enquired with Julie after a recommendation from a family member and she was very helpful throughout. We have never been on a cruise before, and Julie was happy to answer all of our questions of which they were many. Would highly recommend. Thanks Julie and can't wait for February 23 .

Great service, stress free.

Having Julie at Brilliant Travel take the stress out of our honeymoon planning really meant that we could sit back and enjoy the countdown with very little to do. Would recommend.

The best in the business!

Julie was without doubt one of the best decisions of our whole wedding plans. Her amazing knowledge, understanding and responsiveness makes her the best in the business. Nothing was ever a bother and she was always available to answer all of our questions. She also made our honeymoon feel so unique and special which I will forever be grateful for.

Julie is a Star!

Julie was just an amazing help booking our party of four to Nice. She arranged flights, accommodation and even suggested places to visit while in Nice. The accommodation was beautiful and very central - just what we requested! Julie kept in touch throughout the booking process and even delivered my tickets and booking confirmation to my door.
On our return from Nice, I recommended Julie to my nephew. He has now booked a six week holiday to several different countries, he could not speak highly enough of the help and guidance he had from Julie.

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
