Hello John Cawley, thank you for your review and we're sorry to hear you are disappointed. However, we see that this was an online order where you would have been presented with the pre-cruise stay details which confirms this is on a Room Only basis. We're sorry if this was overlooked. Additionally, you will have been required to accept our Terms and Conditions before proceeding to place your order on our website. Within these Terms, it is explained that once an order is placed, each supplier will require a short period of time to check to see if your chosen services are still available and at the price quoted. If the requested arrangements are available but not at the price quoted, we will contact you with the revised cost and give you the option to either proceed or cancel. In your case, we can see this is exactly what's happened and you chose to proceed at the new cost.

Avoid at all costs!!!

Avoid at all costs!!!
We booked holidays to Maldives in May but due to the FCDO advice not to travel through the Middle East We couldn’t travel. Destination 2 didn’t offer alternative route and ignored cancellation request. They are terrible at communication and you can’t call them. We are still fighting to get money back.
They were pushing us to travel against FCDO advice.
They deserve to be closed down. The worst company I ever came across.

Hello Svitlana C and thank you for your review. Kindly note that as per your record, at the time your cancellation request was received, your flights were still due to fly as planned and we therefore were unable to look at alternative options at that stage. Nonetheless, your cancellation request was actioned when it became possible, and a full refund logged with our accounts department. Whilst this was in progress, you submitted a chargeback which then removed your booking from the refund journey whilst we allowed for the chargeback process. We trust you were aware of the associated timescales when deciding to submit such. Our records show that a full refund has now been given via the chargeback process, and we would therefore direct you to your card provider(s).

We have used destination 2 multiple times for our visits to the Maldives and have always been delighted. Our most recent booking (August26) has been dealt with by Nadine and she has been superb. She has been very helpful and professional and will continue to use Nadine and Destination2 in the future

Nikita Boshoff was very kind friendly and helped me to change flights at last minute notice and arranged pick ups. Was very patient with me and sent me numerous emails ensuring everything was ok.

Thank you Nikita for all your help.

Terrible customer service

We had a holiday booked to go to Abu Dhabi but as everyone knows the area is still very volatile and prone to change almost on a daily basis. We contacted Destination 2 to discuss our options. The Foreign Office were still advising people not to travel to the UAE. It was coming up to the date for us to pay for our holiday and we wanted to know what options we had given the situation. Destination 2 did not return calls or emails and come the date of payment they have kept our deposit despite over a dozen attempts to contact them to discuss what our options are. It seems like Destination 2 see the plight of their customers as an easy way to make some quick money. Their customer service is appalling and there is no complaint procedure on their website just a link to their customer services with whom we have made contact countless times to no avail.

Hello Jamie Bryant and thank you for your review. We're sorry you have cause to write such a low-rated review and are disappointed. However, we would point out that you are not the lead passenger of the booking and as has been explained in our email reply, we do require that the lead passenger contacts us from the email address we hold on file. Once received, our Customer Services Team will be happy to assist you further in relation to available options. We're sorry if the lead passenger has sent correspondence which has not been met with a response thus far, as the team have been prioritising affected bookings due to travel imminently and we appreciate your patience.
