This trip was planned and paid for before Covid and then delayed for 2 years. Alan kept us updated over this period and when we finally traveled everything ran like clockwork. Our tour was handled by three different tour groups due to the number of areas we visited and none were disappointing. We are working with Alan on our next trip and already he he has worked hard finding a great price for business fares.

They are highly professional, friendly and go the extra mile for their clients.  My husband and I are adventurous travellers which is something that Alan and Ginny understand and appreciate - they work closely with us to make sure we have the types of holidays we want. When we needed to cut a holiday short due to a hurricane in 2017 they worked extra hard to make sure we got on flights and got home safely - I've never used anyone else since.

We always liked to plan our own travel so when I heard Alan’s interview regarding Cuba I listened carefully. After contacting Alan 5 of us travelled to Cuba. Alan even arranged our flight from USA to Cuba not easily done. 8 years later Please Yourself Travel is still a large part of our travel plans, including private tours with friends. Alan has always willingly listened with enthusiasm to our travel requirements and combine them along with his bookings. Troubled times came with COVID but Alan has been honest, more than fair and performed with endless energy. We look forward to our future travel with PLEASE YOURSELF TRAVEL.

We started to use the services of Please Yourself Travel in December, 2019, just before COVID-19 hit the world. Alan has worked tirelessly, with good humour and patience during this time to secure credits, then later refunds, for our planned 2020 trip to Mexico and Cuba. He gave advice on negotiating claiming on travel insurance in the COVID era when I ended up in hospital during the March 2020 lockdown, which would have ended the Cuba dream trip anyway, but made more difficult by companies giving automatic credits. Nothing has been too much trouble for Alan to handle. We're looking forward to booking our NZ travel in 2022 with him.

Alan and Ginny provided an incredibly valuable and personalised service to my wife and I on our recent trip to Mexico.

The standout for us were the tour guides in each of the selected cities who spoke excellent English and were able to take us on more personalised and flexible tours. We highly recommend Alan and Ginny for any tours in Central America.

Once again, a wonderful experience with the help of Please Yourself Travel. Over 2.5 year delay due to COVID, 4 of us have just returned from an amazing private tour 'Caucasus Discovery', a combination of a 3 country tour of Azerbaijan, Georgia and Armenia. Each country was unique, as were our welcoming, knowledgeable, friendly guides. We also complement our drivers, so important for keeping us safe throughout the tour. We all agreed this trip was quite special, even for experienced travellers. Not only was there good food and accommodation but it was a completely new travel and learning escapade. We enjoyed many scenic sights, most with cultural significance. At times an emotional rollercoaster. Myself feeling empathy for the people of such diverse cultures in our world today. Most of our travel time was great fun shared with our guides and drivers. A travel adventure not to be missed. Thank you to Alan and also Iman from Snow Leopard Tours for help and understanding RE COVID

Alan and Ginny organised a three week trip to Mexico for us in November-December 2019. While we usually book our own travel directly it was our first time there, and we were immensely grateful for Alan's help in designing the trip in terms both of efficiency and of curating the experiences, as well as managing any language issues in booking. The high point of our trip was the 8 days we spent driving from Chiapas to the Yucutan with Damian Alvarez, a guide with 9 years experience in archeology as well as a wealth of information on local culture and communities. Alex, our guide for several outings in Merida, was also excellent: PYT's ability to find good guides is one of the key reasons we will definitely work with them again on similar trips. That said, we were also very happy with the accomodation Alan recommended to us, and impressed with his interest in learning about places friends had recommended to us. PYT were very responsive and we felt they understood our wishes: five stars.

Thanks so much Sue These guides in Mexico have been without work for 2 years now which is such a difficult situation for them and their families We cant wait for Mexico to become COVID safe and to put further work their way When you get adventurous again we have equally amazing guides in places like Russia, Ukraine, the Caucasus and more Stay safe and have fun Alan

We would have preferred to have access to add our notes or bookings. We were confident these booking would be correct and had no problems and knew Alan or Ginny could be accessed quickly if needed. The style of land tour booked was fine but with early starts and quite busy schedules and this is common on many tours. We had an enjoyable time.

In Jan 2021, we visited India for 3 weeks with 2 good friends and WOW, what a trip we had.  Please Yourself Travel (PYT) using their contacts in India ,designed a specific itinerary involving private vehicles, drivers and guides in various locations, accomodation and flights.  We had tried other tour companies but could never get the right combination of destinations we sought but PYT designed our personal itinerary and at a much better price ie. we got much more for less!  Everything went very smoothly and what we really enjoyed were the constant checks by the local company ensuring everything was going well using mobile their SIM and free data/call allowance for this and personal use.  India can be a confronting destination but at no stage did we ever feel at risk, quite the contrary it seemed like being part of a larger family.  We loved India, its people and very rich culture we got very close to compared to being on a bus with others.  Great trip and very well done PYT

 Once again, the attention to detail is evident when organizing a holiday with Alan and Ginny Crocker. Quick responses to queries are always appreciated. The Trip Plans App was excellent, loaded with my itinerary, flight, accommodation, transfer and tours details. Not only did it reduce   paperwork I would have previously taken on a trip but provided easy, portable access to important information. I have recommended to friends to contact Please Yourself Travel, when considering travel planning.

This is our third trip organised through Alan and Ginny and, as usual, all went exactly as planned. They really do their homework to get the best deals and to make sure everything is well organised.

We had a fabulous trip. Everything went according to your planning. Pickups and transfers from airport to hotel were great. Thanks to you we had nothing to worry about.  Your suggestion of Intrepid for touring Thailand and Vietnam was excellent. Intrepid were faultless im their organization and personnel.
