Travelbag was launched in the 1970s to provide bespoke holidays to Australia and New Zealand. Now it provides long-haul holidays worldwide, including all-inclusive, multi-centre breaks and wildlife holidays, but its bread and butter lies in tailor-making trips to meet holidaymakers’ specific requirements.
It received a four-star rating for the overall organisation of its holidays. Readers were also impressed by the standard of accommodation – described by holidaymakers as ‘excellent’ and ‘very comfortable’.
Many were also impressed by Travelbag’s ‘competitive pricing’, giving it four stars for value for money. One reader told us Travelbag ‘was great at tailoring a great holiday that not only suited our needs but also fit our budget’.
Travelbag is a Which? Recommended Provider (WRP), which means that as well as being one of the most highly rated holiday firms in our survey it has also guaranteed to offer a full refund, or free changes, if the Foreign Office (FCDO) changes its advice about your destination.
It has also promised that in 2025, it won’t apply any additional surcharges to holidays that have already been booked.
