Great customer service and personal service
Answered all our questions and made our booking with no fuss - very professional and knowledgeable.
Very efficient in confirming booking.
Elite Cruises exemplifies professionalism. In my short relationship with Elite and Francesca I recognize a hard working, creative and proactive agency. Francesca is adept at understanding your travel needed and building a perfect holiday around it. Elite is top of the line.

We have been using Francesca for years and the personal service is first class and I always recommend the Company as excellent service.
AN IDEA TO GO TO ANTARCTICA ON A EXPEDITION CRUISE LAST YEAR TURNED INTO THE PLANNING OF A MEGA HOLIDAY OF 10 WEEKS. NOW THE PLANNING IS FINISHED, THE ITINERARY SORTED, AND ALL BOOKED. ALL PUT TOGETHER BY SOMEONE AT ELITE CRUISES WHO WANTED TO ENSURE THAT MY VERY VARIED HOLIDAY WOULD BE THE TRIP OF MY LIFE. THANK-YOU S. NOW LOOKING FORWARD TO COMPLETING THE TRIP AT THE BEGINNING OF NEXT YEAR.
As always, Elite delivered. The right cruise, best suite. What more could I ask?
Francesca was recommended to us by another client of hers and I am so glad we decided to approach her to book our next cruise package. She was professional, thorough and incredibly timely with her management of our requests. She is very much like dealing with a good friend who happens to be an excellent travel advisor. We are so pleased so far with both her service, attention to detail and the cruise package she secured for us at last minute! She took time and effort to understand our needs and we never felt rushed or pressured. Just fantastic Francesca! Looking forward to booking through her again!
After being very disappointed with our cruise agent we had used and spent considerable sums of money with, Francesca is like a breath of fresh air. Always responsive and helpful with literally nothing seeming to be too much trouble. With being treated like a second hand car salesman by our previous agent in that they are difficult to get hold of once they have your business, Francesca and Stacey of Elite Cruises are the way to go for us now and in the future.
Francesca provides an excellent service - friendly, approachable, but also bringing both professionalism and experience that comes with her may years in the business. Looking forward to working with her in the future and highly recommended.
I have never been on a Cruise before, so had no idea where to start. Francesca and Stacey made the whole process so easy and their suggestions were perfect for what I had asked for. They didn’t mind how many questions I asked , they were so helpful I would highly recommend. I can’t wait for my first Cruise holiday !
I can highly recommend Francesca for your next cruise booking. She is responsive, attentive and persistent. You can count on her to manage your booking and get the best deal. Her experience in the industry and excellent relationships with the top cruise companies means you are in the safest of hands.
So easy and fuss free. We simply provided a brief and Francsca and Stacy did the rest. No hard sell no overload of information to make your head spin just excellent customer knowledge and service. Can highly recommend!!
Francesca is truly magnificent! She is efficient, knowledgeable and we wouldn’t book a cruise with anyone else. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
Francesca is amazing! She has booked 4 cruises for us now and always finds us the best deal. She goes above and beyond when there have been any issues and is able to directly deal with the cruise company for us to ensure we have a stress free holiday. We might not be Francesca's usual clients as we are a young family looking at family friendly cruises but this doesn't hinder Francesca and she has been able to request everything we need to take our 6 month old baby on board for a stress free holiday. I wouldn't consider booking with anyone else. Francesca is always at the end of the phone to answer any questions. Thank you Francesca and we look forward to many more cruises in the future!
Francesca was very friendly, professional, efficient and helpful. Highly recommend using Francesca for any cruise / holiday booking.
Francesca’s experience knowledge and close and respected relationship with the major up-market cruise lines ensures a personal and much appreciated service which in this age is unusual. We have enjoyed Francesca’s personal service for over 20 years and have with every confidence recommend her to many friends and family.
