Why book with Thompsons?
Travel, like with any other industry, carries risks which is why it is essential to book through a reputable travel provider, says Thompsons Holidays.
"There are so many things that can go wrong when you book a holiday, from misrepresentation of the holiday package, to being overcharged, to your travel agent going bust. Your holiday could be over before it even begins," says Thompsons Holidays CEO Joanne Adolphe. "And even if you do manage to make it to your destination, you may run into trouble and need help from natural or manmade disasters, to passport issues. When you‘re a stranger in a strange land, it makes an enormous difference to know that back home, the assistance of your travel agent is but a telephone call away."
Thompsons Holidays has over more than three decades built its reputation as a leading South African provider of quality holidays at the most competitive prices available, she adds. "Thanks to our longstanding relationships with travel industry suppliers, including airlines, hotels and transport providers, we are able to secure the best holiday options available. And we negotiate the very best prices and then combine these deals into travel packages that provide our customers with the best holidays, with the greatest bang for their buck.
"And there is the comfort of knowing that Thompsons Holidays is a reputable, stable travel company. We‘re here today, and we‘ll be here tomorrow, and we‘re always on hand to support our valued clientele," Adolphe says. It is worth noting that the cheapest holidays do not necessarily represent the best deals, she continues. "We all love a bargain, but cheap‘ can very easily come to mean nasty‘. And when you‘re halfway around the world, on what is supposed to be your dream holiday, that‘s an unpleasant reality.
"It is worth your while to understand the difference between cheapness and value for money and then using a reputable travel agent such as Thompsons Holidays makes a whole lot more sense, even if it does mean paying a few extra rands."
