About Us

Holiday 101 is a family-owned independent travel agency, we have been trading since 2012 & became a member of the Hays Travel Group in 2020.

Alex runs the business day-to-day, with Louise providing backup, support & encouragement when necessary.

We love to travel & experience the world with our children, whether for a quick weekend break, or an all-inclusive getaway, we especially love to jump aboard a cruise ship when time & budget allow.

Travel is an important part of our life & using these experiences & knowledge to help our customers arrange the perfect holiday is very rewarding.

Alex gave us the information we required by text in the first instance and returned our call within a few minutes when we wanted to look into the cruise further. Alex was helpful from the start. he answered all of our questions regarding the price and dates etc. We had queries regarding the ship and cabins and he was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of advice. we did not feel pressured to buy and he made us feel reassured about the whole process. We would definitely recommend the service we received it was 1st class.
