8th October 2023Review ratingOur guide Giovanni and driver Karl made a great trip even better. They were flexible and considerate ensuring everyone had a great time. The itinerary, from Edinburgh to London, was great and I loved having 2 nights in each hotel. We had plenty of free time around the included elements.

4th October 2023Review ratingBeing first time overseas travellers, our wonderful guide Giovanni and our Driver Karl really made it easy to relax and enjoy making wonderful memories. Their knowledge of the areas we explored helped a great deal in getting the most out of our visits. Also, some of our group were travelling by themselves, and they took extra care in making sure they were happy and enjoying themselves.

1st October 2023Review ratingon the whole the tour was quite good. Would have liked to see more of the culture in the area and less cathedrals and castles. The evening meals the tour provided were one of the down sides of the tour. I would rather you charge a little more and allow us to order from the menu. Each evening meal provided on the tour was the same - a choice of chicken, fish and pasta/risotto.
