Travel is not always about the places you visit, but the unexpected experiences you have along the way. A combination of our 40+ years experience, incredible hotel connections, and our membership of the Luxury Travel Collection, enables us to assist our clients with all of the little extra details that make a trip so much more memorable. It could be tickets to a sporting event, a Broadway Musical, a West End show in London or a private entry or after hours visit to a popular attraction, to name just a few!

Clients Kevin & Vicki were in London last month, and Kevin had mentioned in the planning stages, that he follows the English Premier League. So working with our connections at the May Fair Hotel, we were able to secure hospitality seats for them, to the Chelsea v Nottingham Forest match. The result was a win for Nottingham Forest 1 - 3

Lets face it - who has time when in London to stand in a queue trying to get seats to a football match??
With no additional cost for what we are able to source for you - why would you bother trying to do it on your own via hotel aggregators?? We have the contacts that count! Every trip is personalised just for you. No cookie cutting here!

Great news to share, and it’s relevant if you had put a hold on your travel plans.

The Federal Government is changing the "Do Not Travel" advisory for parts of the Middle East, including Bahrain, Israel, Kuwait, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). If you have been waiting to restart your travel plans through these destinations, now is a great time to get in touch.

Until now, most travel insurance policies wouldn’t cover you if you were transiting through these airports. That left a lot of travellers in an awkward spot, even though the airports themselves have been operating normally throughout. That restriction is now lifted. Travel insurance cover is restored for passengers transiting through Doha, Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

While travel advice can change at any time, at Ramsgate Travel Service, we are always available to assist you navigate any developments and ensure your plans remain on track.

Or perhaps you been holding off making your travel arrangements, just waiting to see how the situation changed? Well now is the time to talk with us, and we will curate a wonderful plan and get the bookings locked away for you!

With a limited season due to weather and accessibility, this tour operates from May to September each year. If this is of interest - then you know who to speak with.

Of course the must have photo next to the old sign, and the new modern illuminated digital sign.

If walking is your thing - then we have something we are sure will interest you!
Our client Rod has been doing walks all over Australia with Auswalk for many years, and in April he did the Northern Vietnam Sapa & Halong Bay 9 day guided walk.

The tour started in Hanoi, wandering the historic streets, with their incredible loud and bustling food scene. Then an overnight train (private cabins) into the mountain region of Vietnam - Sapa.
The group walked through incredible mountain landscapes, and being on foot, enabled them to visit remote ethnic villages, and of course the spectacular rice terraces in the Muong Hoa Valley.
Walking through bamboo forests and exploring hidden caves, was all as part of this immersive experience.
The journey ended with a well deserved relax for 2 days/1 night cruise on stunning Halong Bay, where you wake up with the incredible towering limestone rocks rising from the emerald waters you are cruising on.

Auswalk operate tours in Europe, New Zealand, Japan, Nepal, Vietnam and of course in every state in Australia. Some destinations have a choice of either guided or self guided options. The tours are in varying grades, so you do not need to be a mountain goat to be able to experience a walking holiday.

Of course at the end of the tour, we always make sure our clients have some "well worked for" r & r for a couple of nights in a luxury hotel, to relax the legs and just soak up the recent experience of being one with nature.

For details on the many walking tours we have with Auswalk, be sure to speak with Talia, Jenny or Justine in the office.

We travel to the other side of the world to see the landmarks we have read about; but it is the immersive experiences that often stick with us. It is meeting the people, shopping in a local market, trying the local food & drinks etc that are often the strongest memories we return with.

David a retired chef, recently spent time in Budapest prior to joining an APT river cruise for 14 nights up to Amsterdam with his wife.
He was clearly impressed with the Budapest Central Market - as are most visitors to the city. One of the largest covered market places in Europe - the ground floor is full of individual traders selling fresh produce and ready to eat foods - 2nd floor is mainly handicrafts. There is more Paprika in this place than you have ever seen in your life (well as an Australian perhaps).
A great souvenir tip - a tea towel with the Hungarian Goulash receipe on it.

Don’t head to Budapest without speaking with us about the special offers we can share with you on hotels and touring. Fancy a private walking foodie tour?

No visit to Skagway is complete without a train journey on the famous White Pass & Yukon railway. This rail journey is a 3 hour round trip from Skagway, and follows the path of the gold prospectors in the late 1890's, as they trekked the hazardous trails in their rush to the Klondike River to pan for their fortune!

After many perished on the trail, a rail line was made to connect the town of Skagway to Yukon. Today, you can travel on that very line, and retrace the original route to the White Pass Summit, passing Bridal Veil Falls, Inspiration Point and Dead Horse Gulch (named as thousands of horses died covering this area). What is amazing is that this is an isolated railway with no other rail lines detouring from this one track between Skagway and Yukon.

Jane is one of our most travelled clients, who thoroughly enjoys exploring our world, loved her recent visit to The Titanic Museum in Belfast.

The museum opened in 2012 to mark the centenary of the disaster, and is built on the very spot where the ship was designed, built and launched. The Titanic was owned and operated by the White Star Line.

More than two decades after the Titanic sank, and following the the Great Depression and the impact it had on transatlantic shipping, the rivals White Star Line and Cunard Line were forced to merge to form Cunard White Star Limited.
By 1949, the company dropped the White Star name and reverted to operating solely as the Cunard Line.
