Great Experience!

I must say this is the best travel agency I've ever used compared to the past experience I've been through. The staff are so experienced, helpful, very knowledgeable and even when I was abroad they helped me with my bookings when i had some problems. I would definitely recommend ITravel to my friends and family. Fantastic team work.👍

Best Deals!

I have used ITravel to book my holidays for as long as they've been open. Great service and best prices around including online. Once you know what package you're after pop down to see khalid who will give you the best deal compared to most if not all online retailers. Khalid is always available for any questions or queries I've had and also checks up on us after we've been on the holiday to ensure we had the best experience. Keep up the good work ITravel, thank you for all you're great service

Hassle-Free Booking!

Cannot recommend iTravel & Khalid enough. We had a fantastic holiday to Dubai and Khalid made the whole booking process easy and stress free. He worked within our budget and still managed to get great flight times & a 5* hotel right on JBR. He also secured us an early check in and a birthday surprise too. Having always booked my own holidays thinking I can get better deals by far I could not beat the price iTravel got our holiday for us and with great service too. Will be using you in the future from now on.
