WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT US…. 

“We have just returned from your London tour and 

would like to say how very much we have enjoyed 

it. From start to finish it was great. Your driver 

John was very efficient and his knowledge of 

London was excellent. The hotel was very good 

– one of the best we have stayed in on a short 

break. The tour of Parliament was excellent and 

the Classical Spectacular was superb. All in 

all a magnificent weekend.” 

“Thank you for making our holiday special, 

our first time by coach and it won’t be the last! 

From the booking to the homecoming 

all was friendly and easy; the hotel and 

food fabulous and our driver was friendly 

and professional, nothing too much trouble 

for him. 10/10.” 

“….. how much we enjoyed the trip to Diano Marina 

and the South of France in April. We thoroughly 

enjoyed the days out .. and would like to thank you 

for the courtesy shown and the very good driving.” 

“Thank you so much for another super holiday 

– third time lucky for us to visit Roses and it 

lived up to our expectations. The hotel and 

staff were excellent, the trips to Barcelona 

and Girona very interesting and at last 

we had time to visit the cathedral …… 

Our driver was very helpful and attentive 

throughout…. hope to travel with you 

again soon.”
