Unforgettable Experience!
Just returned from Australia, which was a magical vacation that I will never forget. I had an amazing time spending New Year's Eve on a boat in Sydney Harbor, Kayaking in Byron Bay, and living in luxury on Lizard Island. Each day was better than the last and I can't wait to book my next trip. Thank you Swain Destinations for creating such an unforgettable experience!

You will not be disappointed
I have used Swain now for two epic trips and each time, not a detail was missed. Their attention to even the smallest of details and incorporating only the best of class properties, amenities, guides, transportation, etc. was exceptional. If you are looking for a travel consultant to expertly curate a once in a lifetime opportunity, go no further.

The direction and assistance I received …
The direction and assistance I received from Ian Swain for my group of 7 was spot on. Though they ended up changing out 2 tours while there, the tours booked were what they originally requested. The clients commented on the great serviced from Canterbury Trails guide, Irene, as well as the last 2 Luxury Lodges they stayed, Otahuna and Blanket Bay.
I had an unusual request for stocking a villa for their stay in Blenheim and that was done efficiently through Swain and Canterbury. Absolutely no complaints with the service. Ian responded to me even if he was traveling.

Dear Linda,
Thank you very much for taking the time to share this wonderful review, which really highlights the "hands-on" style of our fearless leader at Swain Destinations, Ian Swain. He is still as passionate today as he was 30 years ago when he started this company, and is always there to ensure all of our agent partners and travelers are well taken care of. Irene at Canterbury Trails is one of our long-time partners in New Zealand, and it's so nice to hear that she took great care of your clients, and accommodated their special requests.
Thank you again for sharing your feedback, and for your valued support.

I think this is for the India trip?
I am not sure which trip this rating is for, but I think India for Girdley. I thought Bela was ok. She could have been a bit more informative on crafting the itinerary in that my clients stayed 2 nts at the Camel fare in Pushkar but could have done it in 1. So my clients left early and paid an additional $750 for 1 night at Udaipur instead. THEN Bela didn't even inform me of the change which was a bit embarrassing when the client told me. I would expect someone at Swain would have advised me. Bela did, after I called her out on it, apologize.

Dear Cindy,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your client's recent trip to India. We are sorry to hear that you were not entirely pleased with the service you received on this occasion, and that your clients incurred additional expenses while traveling. Our normal recommendation for travelers wishing to experience the Camel Fair in Pushkar is to stay two nights, so clients do not feel as if they are rushed, seeing as there is so much activity at the fair. We do realize that every traveler is different and appreciate that the Girdleys felt the one night was sufficient. Please accept our sincere apologies for not notifying you at the time the itinerary alteration was made as you should have been apprised of the situation immediately. This is an unusual oversight on our part and we regret the inconvenience caused.
If you would like to discuss any further, please don't hesitate to let us know. I can be reached at brake@swaindestinations.com / 1 800 227 9246 ext 206.
Thank you again for your feedback, and for your continued support of Swain Destinations.

Great place to book a destination.
I have recommended and used Swain for a couple of trips and they all were fantastic. The company and agents are very knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous. If a trip in the future requires assistance, they will be the first agency I would call for advice. Our recent trip to India and Nepal could not have been more perfect.

Swain is a Fabulous Partner to the Travel Agent!
I rely on my friends at Swain for assistance in tailoring the perfect vacations for my clients with more exotic tastes, and they have never once let me down! In the last year, I have worked with them on several trips to ANZ, SE Asia, and even Africa, and their service and attention to the clients' needs are outstanding.

We used Swain for South Africa Trip
We used Swain for a multiple destination vacation in South Africa and Zimbabwe, involving multiple modes of transportation. We worked directly with one of their reps in planning the trip, and providing specific information on what objectives we had. Swain worked out the details.
We were very pleased with the overall vacation and the attention to detail in hotel selections, transport to and from airports and hotels, and in-country travel guides and services. We had used them previously for a trip to Australia and we had an excellent experience then which is why we used them for this trip. They did not disappoint. We recommend them highly and will use them again.

Very well planned and enjoyable
Very well planned and enjoyable. The accommodations were great, and all the drivers were on time and very knowledgeable. We stayed at a few places that were off the beaten path that made the trip special. However we had to change some of our activities because the guide thought that the planned activity would be too strenuous; and we found the cost to be a little pricey.
