" We are so grateful for the meticulous planning & implementation of our holiday with special requirements. Our needs involved able-bodied & mobility impaired passengers, so whilst challenging was managed in such an exemplary manner. Our cruise was so memorable & considered for our needs & all the local tour guides & drivers were so accommodating to our 95 year old mother. Our holiday enabled us to create new memories & we have Elite Cruising and Tours to thank for that. "

" Elite Cruising and Tours took all the pain away when we had to rearrange our travel plans recently. We were spending nights trying to work out how to fix our issue. One call with them and our nights were ours again. We got much better accommodation and flight options than we had found on our endless searches. Thank you so much. "

" Recommend to me through a family member which I am eternally grateful for as we are about to go on the most amazing cruise through the Mediterranean. I made contact from NZ and they came back to me on the same day with the best options for us. Within 24 hours we were booked and ready to go. I thoroughly recommend for any bookings and will be using them in future for any of our holiday booking. "

" I was referred to Belinda van Tholen by a friend. Belinda enthusiastically accepted the challenge and within days I had a 20 page colour documents detailing every flight, car transfer, accommodation, tour and restaurant on my Wishlist. There was also an app for my phone. The entire journey went swimmingly and Belinda was always available to tweak any subtle alterations that needed to be made. I could not be more pleased with Elite and Belinda. "
