Most of the time we jet off on holiday and have a well-deserved break and an amazing 7-night story to go home and tell friends and family. On the odd occasion things don’t go quite to plan, we know we can come home and complain to the tour operator. Hopefully they will make some improvements and it won’t happen again.
But what about those complaints for which there is simply no answer? We asked experienced travel advisors to give us a rundown of their most memorable complaints to date and you won’t be disappointed with the list. Here is our rundown of the funniest and best holiday complaints ever!
