About Us

Hendersons Travel in Hawick and Kelso Travel in Kelso are locally owned and operated travel agencies in the Scottish Borders trading as managed branches of Hays Travel.

Hendersons Travel started in its present form in 1968 and Kelso Travel was opened in 1983. Over the years both branches have gained a reputation for offering top-class service to the communities of the Scottish Borders. Our friendly staff have the experience, knowledge and technology to help find you the right holiday at the right price.

Hays Travel is the UK's largest travel agency group. Now a UK-wide company, its roots in the north-east of England serve Borderers particularly well with an enhanced offering from Newcastle Airport. Annual turnover of more than £2bn creates enormous buying power, while Hays Travel’s cutting-edge technology offers new levels of efficiency. Fully ABTA and ATOL bonded, Hays Travel offers complete financial security.

ABTA and ABTA membership help holidaymakers to get the most from their travel and assist when things don't go according to plan. We are obliged to maintain a high standard of service to you via ABTA's Code of Conduct. All the package and 'Flight-Plus' holidays we sell are covered by a scheme protecting your money if the supplier fails. Other services such as hotels or flights on their own may not be protected and you should ask us what protection is available.

We also subscribe to ABTA’s scheme for the resolution of disputes, which is approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute. If we can’t resolve your complaint, go to www.abta.com to use ABTA’s simple procedure and to find further information on the code and ABTA’s assistance in resolving disputes. Additionally, you have access to the government's Alternative Dispute Resolution service and the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform, which is a means of registering your complaint but will not determine how your complaint should be resolved.
