Our tour was amazing showing us the diversity of culture & scenery. A small group of 8 was so well organised from day1 being met at the airport. Our guide Dissa is very knowledgeable & gave us many... See more

This holiday was so amazing and almost too cheap to be true! We saw wildlife pretty much every day. Our group was small and so intimate and fun. We laughed so much and enjoyed all the time we spent together. The first few hotels were very basic, but if you prepare yourself and understand you are there for the destination - you can get by. We always had AC and a private bathroom, but we were sometimes showering in the same room as the toilet. Our guide Saat was so dedicated to showing us his country and searching for the wildlife for us. He is so passionate about the animal conservation and his wealth of knowledge was mind boggling. We are looking at booking another trip with Myholiday2 very soon. We had no issues at all! We nicknamed our group Saat’s 7, and we will always cherish the experiences we had together 🥰

Just did a tour of Turkey with Myholiday2. I had a great time, it was well organised with good accommodation. Our guide Erol was fantastic he would do anything for you. I definitely recommend this tour.
Easy and very quick communication regarding our recent trip to Japan. First time we have used My Holiday 2 and glad to support a local Australian family owned business in the travel industry. We enjoyed our trip again a first - a coach tour - we wanted to see as much of Japan as we could and we did! Arigatō! Til next time.
12 Days Splendours Sri Lanka
We found My Holiday2 very helpful, and any questions were quickly sorted. We upgraded the accommodation which was great and the program was very interesting.
We enjoyed all of the optional extras. Our guide, Balin, was very knowledgeable, polite, and punctual. Being a group of 2, we would have preferred a bigger group.
The holiday for us was an introduction to Sri Lanka. Our 15 day tour took us all over the country. This was our second tour with My Holiday 2. Overall, we had a good level of hotels with some exceptional and with great locations. Particularly in Ella where the hotel and the location was stunning
Our driver, Nandana, was wonderful. Such a nice man who went to great lengths to tweak the itinerary and make arrangements to suit our preferences.
We had a great holiday!

Coordination of the tour was great. The itinerary was well planned with only one hiccup being a farm stay that had ladder type steps that my 70+ wife found too difficult. The guides were very professional, flexible and friendly.

I have just returned from the MyHoliday2 trip "Following the Northern Lights." What a wonderful experience. The organization from the beginning by the agents was excellent, no questions were too much trouble and any query was answered promptly. The tour itself went perfectly, the Hurtigruten experience was excellent, all excursions were well planned and went like clockwork. Our guide, Jorje Roane was brilliant, cannot speak highly enough of him and his knowledge. And he even organised the Northern Lights at the end. All in all, a wonderful experience and I would recomment it to anyone.

Just back from them 18 day trip to Borneo, to both Sabah and Sarawak with Turtle Island add on.
There is so much to praise about this trip, from my first communication with Myholiday2, the guides, Frankie in Sarawak and Amran in Sabah were both delightful and so knowledgeable. The trip itself had the perfect balance of culture, wildlife, adventure, relaxation and free time. Accommodation and meals were also great. Highlight was the homestay and worth adding Turtle Island to your trip.

Done the 16 day Borneo tour in Oct and enjoyed it, great value for money. Not fast paced at all and when doing the river lodge take a book to read as there is a fair amount of down time.

My recent trip with Myholiday2 was amazing. First ever "Tour" travelling alone on "no single sup" tour to Borneo 6 people and ME!
2 other couples, and a pair of single sisters. My travel buddies were great... very inclusive. Our Guide Sha was AMAZING, so informed, kind, helpful with an incredible knowledge of, not only the spectacular wildlife we saw, but Malaysian history, social customs, and culture ... Lucky enough on our river cruise to see Pygmy Elephants, Crocodiles, Proboscis monkeys... and sooo much more.. Just LOVED it ! thank you Myholiday2

I LOVE everything about this travel agent.
The staff are friendly & proffessional.
John, their flight guru is simply amazing. I was having so much trouble planning a trip to Nepal & he found the flights I wanted, at the price I wanted.
Gemma organised our holiday to Filitheyo Island Resort in the Maldives & it was beyond brilliant. The island, the people, the food, the water OMG!!
Everything went to plan & the little extra touches were appreciated.
The only problem....is deciding where to go to next!
Thank you guys, keep up the great work.

We are in our last day of our trip to Sri Lanka and enjoyed it very much. Roshan our guide was informative, his knowledge about Sri Lanka was second to none and nothing was too much trouble.
We were in a group of ten and were fortunate to be in Kandy for the Hera Petra festival, Roshan organised tickets for us to attend and we got some great photos of the procession.
We opted for the 4star accommodation and most of the hotels were very good.
Would highly recommend this travel agency for your future travels and a big thank you to Roshan and his co helpers for all their care.

Having found by online search a tour of Sri Lanka that included Jaffna in the north (which many others don't) we looked at MyHoliday2's itinerary for the 15-day group tour and were impressed.
The group turned out to be just the two of us as our driver/guide informed us on pickup. There were advantages in that as it meant we weren't waiting anywhere for others and our driver/guide – Nandana – could adjust the itinerary to best suit us.
Our accommodation and included meals during the tour were excellent, with the exception of the hotel in Ella, where construction work right above our room went on until almost midnight, despite the hotel claiming work finished at 7pm. Nandana was horrified to be told this and would ensure this hotel is not used again until construction (of another floor) is completed.
We found Nandana to be an excellent driver and guide, and appreciated his keeping explanations and histories of the sites visited brief and relevant.
An unanticipated benefit of booking the trip (going on to the Maldives and Singapore) with MyHoliday2 was that their flights wholesaler was able to arrange our flights at far less cost than we would've paid by booking online.

Just returned from the 12 days of Sri Lanka Tour. Only 6 travellers in our group so tour guide Rashan was able to personalise some outings to suit. We used 3 star accomodation option and all the hotels provided were clean and comfortable with swimming pools to help with the heat. Organised tours were good although busy as it was European holiday time. Our guide Rashan was most knowledgeable on local history and very proud of his country.Just remember that Sri Lanka is still a third world country so does not offer all the comforts of home but has a very diverse and interesting landscape. Would recommend this tour through My holiday 2 but advise paying for your optional tours as you go not before leaving home and credit cards are not widely accepted so take local rupees. Don’t forget to obtain a visa either online through smarttraveller or at airport. Cost should only be $50 US.

BE WARNED myholiday2 trips are NOT as Advertised.
NO COMMUNICATION & WILL NOT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION!!
LEFT ON OUR OWN, as two ladies we booked this trip for the safety of traveling with a group tour through Türkiye, there was no group tour or the same tour guide, it was a virtual tour representative on WhatsApp and only a day trips in each location.
I could of done this myself & saved lots of money.
Not told by myholiday2 that our Turkish travel representative was going to message us though WhatsApp, finally he contacted the hotel.
We where left unsure & confused on what was going on from day to day, as no pick up time was provided and we had to message our Turkish representative very night for pickup time for the next day.
Our Turkish representative had no idea what was happening either.
He got very short with us and told us (it’s on your itinerary), but no time was provided.
Other times on our myholiday2 itinerary, pickup times was incorrect by 4 hours & location by a whole day, so you could not be prepared for that days activities. As only a pickup time was sent.
We sometimes had to question times he sent, as we had flights & it just didn’t add up.
Other time nobody turned up & sometime in a unmarked private car, leaving us felling unsafe.
Long days, early starts & after a full day tour then driving 3 or 4 hours to your hotel, arriving late at our hotels 9pm & 10pm, missing breakfast & dinner.
The day tour guide laughed when he read our itinerary and said myholiday2 has no idea of the distance between locations & where tourist attractions are located in Türkiye.
UNSAFE: Organising & booking Cappadocia balloon flight was a nightmare, our virtual WhatsApp tour representative, never got back to us, after messaging him again, he messaged none available, then yes available and of course he got the wrong day… we had to pay 520usd cash.
As we had no tour guide he sent a driver to pick up the cash, we handed over all that cash in a laneway outside our hotel to a man that could not speak a word of English.
14 day Ultimate Türkiye tour was not a group tour, it was just day trip in each location, as we all know day trip are very rushed.
By law day trips have to visit a Turkish Industry in every tour, so we visited 3 carpet factory outlets & 2 leather factory outlets 2 jewellery factory outlets ect, a lot of wasted time seeing the same things over & over but we missed out on other location that I was looking forward to visiting on the myholiday2 itinerary, we had only 10 minutes at the grand bazaar ect.
Myholiday2 is slow at responding 2 & half months to finalise the investigation.
Myholiday2 response: The tour was conducted as planned with slight itinerary adjustments made by the land operator for improved comfort. Any missed items were made up with alternative attractions.
myholiday2 & our Turkish supplier followed usual standards.
Myholiday2 you need to raise you’re standard & honour what’s on your itinerary.
I would like my question answered.
So for the 10 time please answer my questions please.
1. Why didn’t you tell us this is not a group tour & only day trips.
2. Why didn’t you tell us we had to have WhatsApp & that the only communication we would have.
Yes your Turkish suppliers did answer all the questions which I already knew the answer, because was there.
And witness the complete stuff on your Itinerary.
Loved Türkiye its a dream location very beautiful & full of people beautiful people that was very helpful & caring.
I would not recommend this 14 day Ultimate Türkiye trip through myholiday2.

Sri Lanka is a beautiful country to visit. Small group tours (there were only 4 in our group) with a wonderful local guide made it feel very personalised. All the accommodation was very good (we chose the 4 star option). Would highly recommend this tour company.

We arrived in Colombo and we were met by our guide, Roshan who gave us a very warm welcome to Sri Lanka.
The hotels we stayed in were excellent with all the facilities we needed to enjoy our trip and the itinerary was perfect. Roshan was very knowledgeable and told us all about the history of the areas we visited and the vegetation that was growing, he even knew the bird life!
Nothing was too much trouble. The experience we had was second to none and considering we are both in our 70’s we found everywhere we went we were well catered for.
We felt very safe travelling with Roshan and he knew the area we travelled very well.
This was our first time in Sri Lanka and we were so amazed at the friendliness of the people and how much there was to see.
We travelled in trains, tuk tuks, 4 wheel drive, catamaran and a bullock cart.
We saw so much wildlife, tea, banana and coconut plantations and beautiful waterfalls. We learnt how tea was made and visited a spice garden and found out the medicinal properties.
We cannot praise Roshan enough for what he did for us.
Myholiday2 planned an exceptional
Package that we wouldn’t call a holiday but an adventure.
We hope to return in the future and we wish Roshan and his family all the very best.

Our holiday – Vietnam 11 days then Cambodia 9 days. Departed 1st May 2024.
Vietnam we were in a small group 8/10. Really nice group of people and we had a lot of fun. Cambodia ended up being just the two of us which was great too.
Vietnam Hotels - we chose the 4 star hotels - all but one was amazing. Hanoi - Pearl Hotel, Le Journey Cruise – Ha Long Bay and Royal Riverside Hotel – Hoi An, were all great. Excellent locations, great pools, bars, food and drinks. Spotlessly clean, beautiful rooms. Staff in all of these places, were awesome and did every little thing to make our holiday wonderful.
Central Palace Saigon Hotel – Ho Chi Minh City - one of the worst hotels ever, as far as service goes. Reception staff, were OK. Staff everywhere else looked like they really didn’t want to be there. We were sent from reception to three different floors looking for pool towels – by the time we arrived back at the pool it was closed. Often there were no bar staff at the rooftop pool, we used the phone behind the bar to call for service. Most of the floors around the rooftop area were grubby. It is a shame because the views of the city from here are to die for, especially in the evening. Excellent location, rooms were very nice and clean. This hotel could be so much better. Or MH2 should consider using a different hotel.
The transfer at the marina for Ha Long Bay was a little confusing - fend for ourselves, after the guide gave us a printed itinerary and left - the staff there finding it difficult to pronounce any of our names.
All other transfers to and from airports and hotels were very good. Our guides and drivers were excellent.
We did a lot of research for our trip - we did not buy any extra day tours through MH2. We booked extra trips, with ease, when we were in the locations and that was great for us.
Cambodia - we chose 4 star hotels- all amazing. Frangipani Royal Palace – Phnom Penh, The J Break Hotel – Kampot, La Passion Resort – Koh Rong Saloem and Stug Hotel – Siam Reap. Excellent locations, great pools, bars, food and drinks. Spotlessly clean, beautiful rooms. Staff in all of these places were awesome and did every little thing to make our holiday wonderful.
A few minor hiccups, with MH2 – before going, sent us generic itineraries - MH2 did send correct ones when we asked. A couple of other typo’s on itineraries, which, showed other people’s names – not very private. An email, that we received on the last day in Vietnam - showed us flying back to Melbourne the next day, when we were in fact flying from Ho Chi Minh City to Phnom Penh.
We had an awesome holiday. Loved Vietnam and Cambodia for the beautiful people we met and different adventures we experienced.

We had a fantastic experience with MyHoliday2. Starting with a great choice of trips at really low prices, the team in Townsville were really helpful and all our documents were easily found on the website. The trip itself was really well planned and organised, our guide was fantastic and there was a perfect balance between organised activities and free time. The wildlife we saw was incredible and we will remember the experience forever. Thanks so much.
