Testimonials

I participated in the recent Norfolk Island group tour and had a fantastic time. The tour was well organized and efficiently managed. Jess and Kayla were very supportive, caring and presented a happy, bubbly, presence throughout. Thank you to 'Live the Dream' staff - you did a great job. Dorothy Price - June 2024
I recently went through Live The Dream Travel to sort out my two-month holiday in the America's. I gave Jess four big tours and other bucket list items I wanted to do in-between and she did everything else! She really is a wizard at fitting everything into what seemed to be an impossible schedule. Letting me know as soon as there was a change in my itinerary and giving me great alternative options to choose from. Flights and getting around was my main concern but Live to Dream Travel made everything so much easier for me and turned this holiday dream into a reality. They're with you every step of the way and will take that stress right off your shoulders. I'll definitely be booking through them again for my next adventure. Thank you Jess, Greg and Kayla so so so much!! Connor Mansfield - May 2024

	From the initial enquiry Greg and his team have been very helpful. On the actual tour Greg's attention to detail and organisation has been exceptional. We have not had any problems or worries that have not been immediately tended to. A truly amazing tour, thanks Greg! Michael & Marilyn Farrelly, Bli Bli Queensland - September 2019
	Dear Greg, Thank you for your care and attention during 'The Tour of 2019'! It was a trip to remember for so many reasons. Thanks for going above and beyond the call of duty, and especially for organising the surprise day at The Ashes for us!. Peter & Lyn Schuh, Wondai Queensland - September 2019

	We booked a 6-week New York/Canada/Alaska/Oregon holiday and cannot recommend our travel agent Jessica Ruffell from Murray Bridge more highly. Not only the most beautiful lady with her happy/bubbly personality but her professionalism is exceptional. Everything was organised to the finest detail and any questions or concerns we had were answered and dealt with immediately, nothing was too much trouble for her. She even contacted me while I was overseas when she was concerned about a health issue I had while away.We had the most amazing holiday ever and are just so grateful to have had Jessica organise it all for us. Best travel agent ever! Marina Wray, Canada - June 2019
	Some time ago my wife, Una, and I attended a travel information night which was presented by Greg Close and some of his team from Easy Travel and Cruise. Greg had looked after a number of Halcyon Landing residents travel arrangements and they were so impressed with Greg and his team that they invited him to host a travel night at Halcyon Landing. We are happy to say that as a result of the way he conducted the night, with an absence of any “hard sell”, we decided to book a 132-day world cruise with Silversea, and we are so pleased we did. We believe in this particular instance we are thousands of dollars better off through dealing with Easy Travel and Cruise. Greg personally looked after us and certainly gave us value that we would not have achieved with any of the larger travel groups. It is nice to deal with someone who is up front, fights to get the best deal possible and wants to do it all for you. I have dealt with agents who have to go back and forth to the manager for approvals for anything out of the ordinary; not so with Greg, it is all straight forward, no messing about. We referred some friends to Greg as they could not get travel insurance cover and were going to cancel their planned trip. Greg got them the cover they required. We will not be dealing with anyone other than Greg and Easy Travel and Cruise for our travel arrangements from now on. David & Una Snell, Bli Bli Queensland - September 2018
I was lucky enough to go on the Walking England tour in 2017. Greg made my arrangements so easy, as I wished to spend extra time in England and Scotland catching up with family. He arranged my train tickets and flights home from Gatwick. Thank you so much Greg. As Greg grew up in this area of England and knew it well, plus had friends on which he could rely and trust, it made this trip well planned and thought out. As far as walking went, there were two different types of walkers. One, was a group that wanted to get from A to B as soon as possible and the second group, was one which took their time to look around and take in the surroundings. Greg was very conscientious of making sure that both groups were well looked after. The accommodation was great, with fabulous hosts, and dietary requirements well taken care of. The canal barge trip was excellent and an eye-opener to see how many people enjoy this type of holiday but also live on barges. I was unfortunate in the fact that I got sick and needed some hospital treatment, but Greg accompanied me in the ambulance and to the hospital, and organised a taxi to take us back to the others. He also helped with the insurance claim once I arrived home. Greg looked after everyone on the tour as though they were a part of his own family. I have no hesitation in recommending this trip to anyone who is considering it. Maureen Ohara - August 2018
	It may be called a walking tour but it is so much more! What a fantastic time we all had. From the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge to the dizzy heights of Dubai and then to the spectacular rural landscapes of northern England. Yes we walked, but we were rewarded every step of the way with such a variety of beautiful scenery, quaint English villages and pubs plus fabulous fun, food and friends. Greg was a wonderful tour guide and together with his local knowledge of many areas and his ability to deal with any situation we threw at him, I couldn't have wanted for a better holiday. You shouldn't miss this one! Lindee Fife - August 2018
I have booked with Easy Travel and Cruise Murray Bridge for my past three trips. Jess Ruffell has been nothing but professional and accommodating from answering so many questions, explaining everything in a way I can understand, searching for the best deals for me to finalizing all my trips and making it super easy for me to plan to get away! I will continue to refer all my friends and family to Easy Travel and Cruise. I can't wait for my next trip to Thailand in October! Thanks again Jess and the team at Easy Travel and Cruise Murray Bridge - 10/10 Service! Tamika Parker - June 2018
