Had the worst holiday ever with Alfa Travel. Did County Claire and Galway tour on 02.07.17. The coach driver was rude, the accommodation was bad and Alfa Travel's response to complaint is inadequate and smacks of a 'couldn't care less' attitude. Trip was sold as a night on the way out and back in Dublin when in reality the hotels used were miles away from Dublin. The driver did not follow the itinerary but instead went to places where he obviously gets back-handers from proprietors. On 2 occasions passengers sat on the coach in a car park for 45 minutes because nobody wanted to visit the venue he had stopped at. He spent more time selling bottles of wine to passengers than bothering to follow the trip as it had been sold. He was so bad we decided to use public transport for the excursion to Galway which cost us 40 Euros each and Alfa have not even offered to refund the cost of these bus tickets. Having spent £898 on this tour I am appalled that Alfa Travel are not interested in our complaint - I would not recommend Alfa Travel and I will never travel with them again.

My husband and I booked a seven day holiday with Alfa travel, staying at Regina hotel Torquay. 30th July until 5th August. Boarded the coach 7pm taken to a service station to await feeder coaches, eventually set off for Torqauy at 9.30. Bob the drivers welcome on board were I quote " my name is Bob, some of those cases took two to lift. Weight limit is 15 kg, not 30. If they are like that on return, they will be left, as I am not doing it again" How disgraceful to greet holiday makers in such a way, it set the tone for very poor holiday. Bob proceeded with journey without another word. The excursions included were very poor, Two hours to get to Sidmouth with surly driver Bob, only to stay for one hour. Essex was lovely but only two hour stay, and an hour sat on coach in car park, as Bob had to wait for other Alfa coach to follow, onto Teigemouth shoking. Not how I planned to spend my holiday. Room 85'in hotel was ok, but no hot water, only cold to very Luke warm. Manager checked it out, looked at boiler never heard anymore. Cold water for whole week for washing, and shower. Shocking. On return Bob claimed one of our cases may not be onboard, as others helped him load the coach. We just replied we would make a claim against Alfa if that is true. Both cases were onboard, after another hour and half wait at service station on return journey. First time with Alfa, never again. Holiday from hell.

Very basic hotel which needed a lot of told. The restaurant service was terrible with a wait of 20/35 minutes at every meal, and the the food had run out. Only 5 staff at a 90 bed hotel and when you complain your told "sorry no one available, just leave a message" then had to spend 3 hours at Burton Wood services awaiting for our feeder coach on the way home. This was our first and last trip with Alfa

My friend and I have just had a break at the Hotel de Paris in Croit mer. I have to say that it was excellent. The restaurant, food, service was great. The single room I had was lovely and clean with all facilities. The reception staff were very helpful.The transfer from feeder coach to proper coach at Tamworth services was excellent as well.The only problem was coming home when we came upon a traffic jam just before Cambridge services. It took us over an hour to reach the services. Our driver Jeff however tried best to get round the problem but so did everyone else.He was a star. However when we finally got to Tamworth Alfa had organised taxi's for our onward journey. Well done Alfa Travel

Previously I enjoyed Alfa, but my last journey left me very disappointed. We were simply driven to a town, dropped for a couple of hours, then returned to the hotel. I had higher expectations.

Fantastic 5 day tour from Newcastle to Llandudno. Driver Tommy went out of his way to help and the hotel was well managed with great food. As ever a very good Alfa break.

We recently had a weeks holiday to the Isle of Man, Driver Jef was very pleasant and very helpful to us all. Some good trips out and had so much information about every where we went. The staff at the Hydro Hotel where we stayed were all pleasant and helpful,some times evening meal needed to warmer but they dealt with it ok. Unfortunately the coach developed a problem and Jef had to nurse it back to Burton Wood he coped really well.Thanks Alfa for another good holiday, we have already had 3 this year with you and look forward to our trips to Ireland and Cromer and then our Christmas and New year breaks in Dunoon.

Just had 5 days away to Fort William and Isle of Skye. We picked up the feeder bus in Redcar to pick up the coach in Bowden Services, got there and the coach was late not a good start. Arrived at Croit Anna hotel which was very nice. Second day was a day in Inverness a long way to go for a couple of hours bearing in mind that Inverness is quite a large place then back home not impressed. Wednesday was a chill out day at Fort William which was quite enjoyable. Thursday was a nightmare three and half hours on the coach to Isle of Skye for an hour and half stay just as well as there was nothing there to do or see in the pouring rain, then three and half hours back to the hotel. Far too much travel in the coach plenty of other places nearer to Fort William to go and visit complete waste of a day. Trip home was another hour and half wait at Bowden Services for feeder coach a very very tiring week of coach travel. It was our first booking with Alfa and needless to say the last. The Itinerary for that trip really needs to be looked at by Alfa.
