Exhibitor Testimonials
Heres just a few of the testimonials from our exhibitors of Destinations Birmingham 2008 ...
“We’ve had a great Show at Destinations NEC, we’ve had a lot of genuine interest from visitors wanting to book holidays and excursions to New Zealand. All visitors have been enthusiastic, knowledgeable travellers who know what they are after. There have been dedicated Kirra Tours clients who have come to the Show to rebook their holiday for the coming year. We’ll definitely be back at the NEC for 2009”

We’ve taken a number of bookings and have had a lot of interest from visitors who have come to the Show specifically to see us. The whole organisation process has been easy and pain free. We will definitely be back next year.”

We’ve had a really great footfall to our stand this year, people have been genuinely interested in the Isle of Wight and there have been some positive leads to follow up. The competition we ran at the stand allowed us to collate a lot of invaluable data and our location allowed us to be in the centre of all the action. We are hoping to rebook for next year”
