Scott Dunn Omdömen 260

The team at Scott Dunn Private does an excellent job of planning every detail ensuring a smooth and successful journey each trip! Thankful for the excellent customer service and attention to detail!

I wanted a two week holiday to India but I did not know the budget I needed so I provided where I wanted to go but I expected a reasonable quote. The quote I was provided was for £58k for 2 adults and one child. On review of the accommodation quoted I priced this myself online at £20k. Whilst I appreciate there are additions for internal flights, a tour guide and entrance to temples etc, I could not understand how this came to £38k for 2 weeks, I even questioned if they had made a mistake but I was told no. I even asked could they explain the additional but they did not want to. If I could understand what the additional was for I might be happy to pay for this, however I felt that they were taking advantage. It’s a shame as online and their marketing I had such high hopes. This is also not the only holiday of this type that I will be booking in the future so they have lost out. I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Very professional and knowledgeable.

Our honeymoon was perfectly curated to what we specifically said we wanted to do / see / experience as a couple and what mattered the most (in our case, food and setting).
In addition to situating us for the right amount of time in each spot to get the best possible overview of cuisine, islands, and Thai culture, the way our travel manager included so many small details and treats was outstanding. The best part of using Scott Dunn was that it simply eliminated all stress. We barely had to think about any logistics at all - just checking the itinerary in-app at the start of our day was our only responsibility. We felt like every single member of each staff that helped us out (whether it was a tour guide, a driver, or a hotel rep) was 2 steps ahead the whole time. This kind of service showcases the difference between simply delivering on needs vs. anticipating them!

Scott Dunn always delivers great quality, knowledgable and helpful staff, and good value for a quality product.
Having holidayed often with Scott Dunn, they have never let us down; and it’s always a pleasure. Highly recommend!

Scott Dunn can arrange stunning holidays to the best locations and properties around the world. If SD recommend a location or property, it is likely to be the best you can find in that area of the world. They take time to understand your specific needs and their service and admin are faultless. If you are in the market for an upscale vacation then you can't get better advice anywhere. 100% recommended.

From initial contact to the end of the trip, Scott Dunn were always available to assist. It was the perfect holiday and we wouldn’t change a thing.

End to end luxury travel agency that helped design an original trip for my family and I! Highly recommend working with them.

We visited Buenos Aires and Iguazu Falls( Argentina and Brazil side). Scott Dunn arranged a wonderful custom itinerary, providing mostly private experiences that met our interests——private tango lessons followed by Rojo tango club dinner and show; city tour with private guide, private cooking class in home of local chef and sommelier; private shopping tour by nationally recognized guide that focused on local designer showrooms and goods made in Argentina; Iguazu Falls, including adventure boat ride into the cascading falls, nature hikes in the tropical forest with beautiful birds and wildlife, and many exceptional up-close views of the massive falls. Our hotels were all first class with excellent food , service, and proximity to our planned activities. Scott Dunn developed and excellent trip plan and executed it flawlessly. I will definitely use them for international travel in the future

Excellent advice and support on a last minute Christmas break to SE Asia. Great hotels & organised tours. Hassle free holiday.

Such an experienced group of consultants who have first hand knowledge of their areas resulting in a truly bespoke holiday.

I worked with Kira, a specialist for Latin America, on a trip of a lifetime in Patagonia. I usually am a “self-sufficient” traveller, and I am typically happy to research and plan on my own. I knew I didn’t want to join a large tour group, and I had very specific dates I set aside for this trip. Kira took all my asks and requests into account and built a perfect itinerary around my budget. The experience was hassle-free, I felt so relaxed knowing all I had to do was wake up, show up and get whisked away. There was no need to coordinate with anyone - local teams on the ground reached out to me and made sure everything went smoothly. I’d highly recommend Scott Dunn to any type of traveler - young, old; solo, group; adventurous or not. And I would love to work with Kira again — I really appreciated that she had first hand experience with everything on my itinerary so she could recommend the best hikes to sign up for, and talk me through what to expect once I got to Argentina, even outside my planned itinerary.

We feel we were well served by the Scott Dunn staff and experience

Our trip was amazing and stress free. We had an excellent guide who was knowledgeable, attentive and helpful. Our driver was excellent- very calm. Thank you to Scott and Dunn for organising a trip of a lifetime.

The trip planning was perfect, we new exactly what to expect and there were only nice surprises during our trip :-) From the first stages of the planning until we returned home the service from Scot Dunn was impeccable!

1. Everything you promised was delivered. You heard what we wanted and you crafted a trip that met our goals.
2. The logistics of the travel were flawless. Every pick up, every transport was right where they said they would be at exactly the prearranged time. This made for a totally worry free trip.
3. The accommodations were superb but I would like to highlight some things. The locations were truly perfect. All four hotels made sightseeing so convenient. The service was all that I could have expected. But let me single out La Bandita and Hotel Monti. The staff were extremely solicitous and eager to make our visit spectacular. La Bandita rolled out the red carpet for sure and Monti staff were all smiles and helpfulness. Naples Michelin starred hotel was what one would expect—one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten in. The Florence hotel staff were also very responsive but it wasn’t guite as exceptionally personal as the others. This is less criticism of Florence than a resounding accolade to the others.
3. Activities were well planned and very well orchestrated. Each of our guides seemed to immediately appreciate our level of sophistication in history and archeology and raised their bar. All guides have some trouble going off script, which we encourage, and some did better than others but overall they were very good. My favorite was Michaele in Naples.
4. The sites we visited were excellent choices for us. Pompeii and Herculaneum were wonderful. Hadrian’s villa was also great. Villa d’Este was a little disappointing. I knew ahead of time the villa had no furnishings and didn’t have high expectations but I chose it based on the gardens, especially the famous water fountains. Through no one’s fault, the water was turned off that day. The Vatican was special but probably would have liked to cut loose from the guide to explore more off script. Pienza was a special place but the town really was low season. Tuesday the whole town shuts down apparently but Nick rented a scooter and explored the valley on his own so it worked out fine.
5. The food was on our own except for the included breakfasts. Each hotel did a great job but Naples stood out as one would expect a one star restaurant to do.
All in all a nearly perfect trip. Your planning and expertise was very evident in every detail. Good Job!!!
I will not hesitate to use you again.

Traveled to New Zealand, and Lucy Rudgard with Scott Dunn did a terrific job in making suggestions for where and when to go, and then arranged everything including transportation and activities.

We took two SD trips in 2025. One to Spain (May) and one to Italy (October). Both were interesting, different, beautiful and well-coordinated. We will never forget the quiet solitude of the Alhambra. Or the breathtaking ancient ruins on the Amalfi Coast.

Both required a lot of planning and attention by our trip coordinators - Grace Bunker (Spain) and Livia Angelini (Italy). Both required last-minute flexibility, too, as our interests and expectations evolved over time. Both were more than up to the task.

We are so grateful to them for giving us the gift of two trips of a lifetime. Could not have done it without them.

Thank you, Grace and Livia.

Met by a chaperone from airport to hotels and everyone was prompt and easy to find .Eli did a great job putting this together we feel so grateful , Thank you so must our Galapagos dream was just awesome .

All arrangements for pick-ups, transfers, flights, and our stay at Mala Mala Rattray were superb.
