About us
Mystery Holidays. Reinvented
We were the original curators of the mystery holiday concept.
And we have led the way ever since.
We built the idea from scratch when it was just a wild thought and watched it explode across the UK.
But as the hype grew, the cracks started to show.
We watched the chaos. So we hit reset.
We’ve seen the Trustpilot truth bombs.
We’ve read the Reddit rants.
We’ve scrolled through the Facebook groups that start with “So I bought a mystery holiday and…”
Turns out, a good idea doesn’t stay good if it’s done badly.
🙈 Got Rome… then got told it’s “no longer available”
📞 Endless emails and back and forth calls just to confirm your trip
✈️ Preferred airport? Not so much
💸 Confusing peak and off peak pricing, regional airport supplements and surprise add ons
With vouchers, third party travel providers, and overloaded call centres, it stopped feeling like fun.
So we stripped it all back and built the experience the way it should have always been.

FAQs
Whad’ya wanna know?
Here are a few answers we prepared earlier, along with a link to even more if you’ve got plenty of time on your hands.
Yes. What you see is what you pay.
With those other voucher deals, that “£99 headline price” rarely sticks.
You’ll often be stung for admin fees, extra charges for specific airports, or peak season surcharges. Their process usually adds steps and then more cost.
With Mystery Holidays, you can forget vague fees and last-minute surprises. We’re all about honest pricing, start to finish.
You choose your exact departure airport when booking—no guessing or jetting off from the middle of nowhere.
We cover:
London: Gatwick, Luton, Stansted and Southend
South: Bristol
Midlands: Birmingham and East Midlands
