ThornetravelAnmeldelser 

From my initial call with Rhona I knew this day was going to be extra special from the excitement in Rhona's voice when explaining what the day involved.

From the moment we stepped off the plane it was a day filled with magic and snow as far as the eye can see. From riding the snow globes, reindeer and husky rides, meeting the big man himself and of course playing in the snow.

Id highly recommend Rhona at Thorne Travel and of course this experience is a must for kids and adults.

Seeing really is believing!

We walked into Thorne Travel and were so pleased to be listened to and the agent, Yvonne in the Largs Branch guided us to the r.ight time for a holiday in Malta. She understood what we were looking for and that is exactly what we got! It was super. Access to great restaurants, a very close bus stop and a very good hotel.
All the details were taken care of and we could not fault the service offered.

Absolutely brilliant travel agents. As a family we cruise twice a year and as we vary the cruise companies and cruise itineraries Thorne Travel have been excellent on helping us getting everything sorted - travel to the cruise - flight or coaches - cruise extras as well. All taken care in their lovely offices. Delighted to recommend this fantastic Scottish travel company

As usual John &Staff were as courteous and helpful as ever,I would say they go above and beyond with their customer service,I have booked another cruise I would not think of going anywhere other than Thorne
Thank you yet again.

Both my husband and myself were undecided about next year holiday and sent Lucy email after email asking advice and information on various cruise lines and offers on but Lucy was fantastic, nothing was a bother , we have booked our previous holidays/cruises through her over last few years , she is so friendly, polite and really takes the time to get to know her customers on what we like don’t like and does her searching around this. Never any pressure on time to book, giving us time to read over the different options she gave up . As we both work shift patterns it’s hard to get into store so being able to do everything via email or phone call is great and know we can trust Lucy to find us the perfect holiday, which she has .

Lucy in the Prestwick Branch gave us First Class service when we went into enquire about Cruises. It is going to be our first cruise and we left feeling excited after booking. We wouldn’t go anywhere else now to book future holidays. Lucy was extremely knowledgable, friendly and professional. She made us feel very comfortable and we didn’t feel pressured.

Great customer service. Love getting checked in by staff and being provided with boarding passes.

Very helpful staff

Katie was friendly and helpful when booking my holiday. She ensured all the discounts were applied so I got the best price. I was phoned to come in and pick up my travel documents and given a contact phone no for them in case of any problems. Much better experience than booking online.

Another holiday booked with Thorne Travel — and once again, the service was outstanding! Lucy was incredibly lovely and patient, handling all our questions and last-minute changes with ease. What really stands out is how genuinely excited the team is for you when you book — it adds such a personal touch and makes the experience even more special. You just don’t get that kind of enthusiasm when booking online! All the extra tips and helpful advice were a real bonus too. Thank you again!

What can I say but thank you once again to Lucy, she goes above and beyond everytime. Her customer service is exceptional, I wouldn't book with anyone else now. ⭐

Another great holiday booked with Katie Roy at Thorne Travel in Kilwinning. As always a first class service wouldn't go anywhere else to book our holidays, thanks

Lucy, without question, she was very patient with us, as she found our dream Christmas break.
Lucy is so knowledgeable, and friendly.
Thank you,
From
Pete & Steph ❤️

I had a fantastic experience with Thorne Travel. Lucy has been absolutely amazing! I haven’t been away in 10 years and she managed to find me the perfect Christmas break. Lucy answered all my questions, which there were lots of, with ease and quick replies. I really appreciated this as I’m an overthinker. Lucy even recommended a day trip which looks amazing and I’m sure will be the highlight of our trip. I’ve now booked my first ever cruise with Thorne Travel and can’t wait. I found the service to be impeccable and there really is a personal touch. I would highly recommend Thorne Travel and am already thinking of what I can book next.

The service you recieve from all the staff at Thorne Travel is second to none. They are all so very well trained at their field. They are a credit to the Boss Shona. John booked our annual holiday and this one to Egypt was the best ever. I cannot sing their praises enough. You don't feel like a customer, it's like chatting with your friends. John actually stayed past opening hours for us. Thank you all so much. Great service as always. Keep up the good work and winning awards as yous certainly deserve every single one of them.

We have been booking with Audrey over the years so who better to handle our 40th Wedding Anniversary trips. Had a fantastic Greek island cruise in April to begin with. Audrey's knowledge of the ports was brilliant. Locating us perfectly on the ship was a real bonus as well. The whole experience was fabulous, one we will most definitely do again. Audrey also booked us for Rome just recently and once again everything was done for us. We just turned up. Another fabulous trip. Looking forward to our next trip and working on it with Audrey. Two great vacations this year. Thanks again Audrey and Thorne Travel Largs. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great hotel great food and choice,great family hotel loads of pools and sun beds . Entertainment good staff nice location good overall would love to stay here again and again .

Great service from all the staff

My Daughters and I have recently returned from a Great Rail holiday which was booked with and organised by Thorne Travel in Largs.
Amanda and Yvonne were extremely professional, efficient and friendly once again. It's always such a joy book with Thorne Travel because we know all the details and any issues will be dealt with effectively which is such a relief and reassuring that they are always there for you in any unexpected issues.
Thank you again Thorne Travel Largs for yet another wonderful and trouble free holiday

I have been very fortunate to have Audrey booking all my holidays for several years now and truthfully cannot imagine even considering going to anyone else or another travel agency. I do a wee bit of homework and email Audrey with my thoughts and wishes most but certainly not all the time. Audrey takes care of everything for me with professionalism and kindness at all times. The team at Largs always make me feel welcome at all times.

🌍✈️ 🚢 Thorne Travel, Kilwinning – My Passport to Peace of Mind! 🚢 ✈️🌍

As a solo travelling parent with a serious case of wanderlust (and an overthinking brain), finding a travel agency that feels like a warm hug and a logistics wizard rolled into one is a rare gem. Thorne Travel Kilwinning – the unicorn of travel planning!

From the moment I nervously enquired, they made me feel safe, seen, and sorted. These folks aren’t just ticking boxes – they’re crafting travel experiences with love, honesty, and a surprising knack for knowing what I need before I even do.

💫 Special shoutouts? Oh absolutely!
• Liberty (Prestwick): Thank you for your saint-level patience and giving me the nudge to explore the world of cruising – who knew I’d consider floating hotels with buffets?!
• Katie (Kilwinning): That smile at the door? I’m convinced it’s what sunshine would look like in human form.
• Christiane (Kilwinning): You are the honest travel bestie we all need – straight-talking, informed, and clearly a walking Lonely Planet.
• And of course, Shona – the fearless founder and powerhouse CEO. It’s no wonder this agency is racking up awards like they’re souvenirs. Your team reflects your energy, and that’s saying something!

They’re not just selling holidays – they’re building relationships, giving sound advice, and making sure you actually enjoy the planning process. Which, let’s be honest, is often more stressful than a Ryanair baggage queue.

So, if you want travel planning that feels less like a chore and more like chatting with a bunch of globe-trotting fairy godmothers, pop into Thorne Travel. They’ll make your next adventure feel like the start of something magical. 💫🌍

Verdict: 5 stars, 10 passports, and a partridge in a palm tree.
