Murray Travel Reviews 

Our trip involved visiting family in Tasmania involving 8 different flights with a night in Melbourne on the way to Hobart and another night in Melbourne on the return journey. The itinerary and choices of airline and hotel that Tracy put together for us was the best and the information and help beforehand with visas etc was excellent. We gave her the framework and left the detail in her hands.
It made life so easy and the trip so enjoyable.

Carla and her colleagues organised a fantastic trip for us to Portugal and the Azores. Which included surviving the worst that Hurrican Gabrielle could throw at the islands...but our wee traditional-style Azorean stone cottage never even blinked. The islands are stunning but what made it special was the people, the Portuguese must be some of the nicest on Earth, everywhere we went, from drivers to tour guides to hotel staff, all exceptionally helpful and friendly. Learn a few words of Portuguese before you go btw, it pays off!
Obrigado a todos!

An excellent itinerary prepared by Murray Travel and Canadian Affair - oh, and the brilliant weather!

Murray travel took all the stress out of arranging our last two holidays abroad.
They listened to our needs and came
up with packages that fitted. The staff were positive and friendly and nothing was any trouble. A great local company providing a quality service

We have just returned from a 7 day trip to Nashville which we booked through Murray Travel. It was our first time booking through a travel agent and I could not believe what a stress free experience it was.

When I first phoned Murray Travel, I spoke to Susan (Freeman) who listened to exactly what I was looking for. She came back to me very quickly with suggestions of hotels, flights etc. which we booked not long after. After booking, she was extremely efficient in emailing all our flights and hotel booking paperwork to me, plus giving me extra information regarding transfers etc. Also as promised, all our flight paperwork was received a couple of weeks before we left.

Our trip to Nashville was fabulous and everything we hoped for - gorgeous hotel with great flights. I will definitely use Murray Travel again for our holiday bookings and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to friends and family. Thanks again Susan 😊

The staff have a lot of travel experience and are able to find you your ideal holiday. In this instance Susan Freeman got us fixed up with a week in Prague. They have also organised a Rhine cruise, Belfast city break, and a big trip to India next year. The staff make your travel organisation effortless and stress free.

This is my 3rd booking with Alistair from the Forres branch and his customer service is second to none. We are just back from our last Europe Holiday, travelling to 4 different cities and everything went without a hitch. All the hotels were amazing and our train travel between countries was seamless and all organised for us, all we had to do was turn up. Alistair is very chatty and friendly, he listened to all our requirements and nothing was too much trouble. We have just booked through him to go away next year. I would thoroughly recommend Murray Travel for ease and peace of mind. I won't go anywhere else now.

Having become used to booking holidays+hours of trawling online for about 20yrs it felt a real luxury to have booked this time with Murray Travel,Nairn.The office is tastefully decorated and a very comfortable and relaxed space.Tony and the other team members were all just so pleasant,cheerful and accommodating.Everything possible was done to make our holiday plans go smoothly.

Trust is a huge thing for us as customers. Having done our research, we were so happy to have booked through Murray Travel.

This was a once in a lifetime tailormade Safari and Beach Holiday to Tanzania in July 2025. Carla Murdoch listened to our wants and needs, produced an all-encompassing itinerary, coming in under budget for what is the most memorable of experiences.

We travelled as a family of 4 with our 15- and 12-year-old-daughters. The accommodation changed every couple of days as we ventured further along the safari route. All accommodation was excellent, the real highlight being the safari lodges we had for 2 nights in the Serengeti, very special indeed. A 3-night trip to Zanzibar at the end of the holiday capped it all off.

Flights, transfers, meals and a concierge service all included – stress free travel.

Awesome service from amazing people at a trusted company, what more could you ask for? We will be repeat customers and wish we had happened upon Murray Travel long before now.

We booked a very complex itinerary over 3 weeks involving 3 countries and 10 flights. The holiday went like clockwork with everything happening as we expected.

Great service from Murray Travel, every step along our journey, flights, transfers, hotels and cruise, everything just flowed seamlessly.

They listen . Not only finding you the best holiday option but also going the extra mile to ensure the trip goes smoothly. And if it doesn't, we'll they are there for that too.
Experience skill and personality ensure a safe and enjoyable holiday at the best price.
Thoroughly recommend

The crew at Murray Travel are a great bunch. Friendly and attentive and making sure they get to know exactly what the customer is looking for. They handle everything start to finish which is so useful for customers like me who struggle with all the organising and admin stuff. I trust them to get everything right and can't imagine ever booking a holiday any other way now. They are intuitive and make booking a holiday so much easier

Our trip was a totally bespoke 5 week tour of Australia and Murray Travel put the itinerary together and absolutely nailed every element of the trip.
We cannot thank them enough for giving us a complete and fantastic holiday of a lifetime.

We booked a cruise independently online, but all the rest of the package and the extras still had to be arranged - flights, hotels, etc. Sarah and Tony at Murray Travel took on the responsibility for putting together some great deals, hotels, travel details, additional excursions, finishing touches and suggestions we wouldn't have thought of ourselves, and so on - we had a brilliant trip, even without taking the superb cruise into account, and they couldn't have been more helpful if they'd tried! We'd have no hesitation about using them again in the future, and we've already been telling our friends to go there too for the best advice and support!

We are just back from our second trip organized by Carla at Murray Travel and we will definitely be using her again.

Carla organized our Florida/NYC trip in 2020 which was unfortunately cancelled due to the pandemic and we had no hesitations when we rebooked to go with her again. Carla was incredibly patient with us as we made our hotel/flight decisions and have us some great recommendations.

We have just returned from Agadir in Morocco, again organized by Carla. We went on her recommendation of hotel and we were absolutely delighted and highly recommend Morocco.

We were recommended Murray Travel, specifically Carla, by a work colleague and have subsequently recommended her to friends who have also been delighted with the service they received.

First time using Murray Travel and I’ll definitely be back. Susan helped me arrange a surprise birthday city break. We had a beautiful hotel in the perfect location in Madrid. She offered a range of options with different budgets helping me make the right choice that suited us. It was so handy getting the tickets printed out and packaged up, actually much more convenient than using my mobile! Communication was great, we mostly kept in touch by email but it was good to be able to just pop in and speak to Susan when I had a question. Thank you we had an amazing trip and I would highly recommend Madrid.

We’ve had another amazing holiday organised by Carla at Murray Travel. Carla has worked with us a few times now, understands what we want in accommodation etc and for our trip to Iceland this summer, did not disappoint.

We were a multigenerational group with ages from 9-69 so needed a holiday to suit us all whilst seeing as much of Iceland as possible in one week and seeing puffins was a must.

We toured around much of the south of Iceland staying in various accommodation with our own personal driver/guide who was excellent. The tour was flexible and as a fairly active family our guide adjusted to itinerary to suit and enable us to add in a few extra sights.

Everything went to plan, the holiday was seamless and well organised, the accommodations all great and we had a wonderful time.

Carla fulfilled our brief easily, being friendly and professional throughout. I always feel in safe hands when dealing with Murray Travel and highly recommend them to anyone who asks.

Just back from a wonderful minibreak in Majorca with 5 school friends to celebrate our big birthday year! Aimee listened carefully to our priorities for the trip, managed too coordinate flights from 3 different countries and booked a hotel in the perfect spot. She answered our (many!) questions quickly and made the whole trip stress free. Would highly recommend! Thanks again.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! We had the best experience with Murray Travel for the Silverstone Grand Prix. They had everything we could want and need - bacon rolls in the morning before the bus, snacks and drinks on the bus, and were the most lovely helpful team! We had a great weekend and they were there for our every need - just a call away. I would highly recommend Murray Travel to anyone!
