Great tour. I would definitely like to go back to this area as some places such as Straford on Avon for one example we needed more time to visit. Lunch and afternoon tea was very nice. Tour company also excellent.

Lake District Rail Day Trip from London

London, United Kingdom

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

This tour is well worthwhile and was thoroughly enjoyable. The two tour companies involved in this trip organised everything very well. Evans and Evans made the train journey very easy and we somehow ended up with first class train tickets and Mountain Goat the tour company who met us when we got off the train were fantastic. We had an awesome guide and the whole day was fantastic. Definitely recommend this tour as the scenary and itinerary are fantastic. Beatrix Potter's house a must for anyone interested in Peter Rabbit.

London Eye: Skip the Line Tickets

London, United Kingdom

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

Well worth paying a little bit extra for skip the line tickets as at this attraction there are always cues and it saves waiting in a long cue as the skip the line tickets meant we didn't have to wait long at all and not wasting time in cues.

Meet at the airport by a company representative with our name on a board and delivered right to the door of our hotel. A bottle of water in the car waiting for both of us on our arrival after a 23 plus hour flight.

Amsterdam Canal Bus Hop-On Hop-Off

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review

A great way to avoid the traffic on the hop-on-hop-off bus as you don't have to wait for lights etc on the canal bus. However the boats only come around every half an hour and it was fun trying to find a spot to exchange our voucher for this tour.

Stonehenge, Salisbury and Bath Day Trip from London

London, United Kingdom

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review

A good day, however with all day tours you could use a bit more time in Bath and Stonehenge. However this is a good tour to do and an easy way to get around to have a look at these sites.

My Review

It was great to be able to skip the long cue into this attraction so well worthwhile paying the extra money for this benefit. However this attraction is always overcrowded so be prepared to wait once inside the door to get anywhere near the wax figures.

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
This tour was also a good way to get around as a lot of things are spread out in Dubai. However you probably spent a bit of time waiting for buses and it also took a bit of time to get to each attractions. There weren't really any attractions or stop in walking distances of one another.

Giverny and Versailles Small Group Day Trip from Paris

Paris, France

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
This trip was good! Giverny was amazing and Monet's house is well worth a look. Versailles was very crowded with a lot of bus groups. The audio guide you are given is good to be able to have as you walk around. However, I think you need a full day at Versailles to have a good look around. The gardens and waterfall displays were just amazing! The included lunch was also very nice and location where we ate was lovely also.

2 star rating: It was OK, but could have been better

My Review
This tour was good to be driven around to see everything lite up at night time, especially the landmarks which have gold on them. However it would have been nice to have been able to stop and take some photos which was difficult to do on the bus.

Lisbon Airport Shared Departure Transfer

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review
We were unable to contact the office to confirm our pick up time for the airport. We had however spoken to the driver who dropped us off when we arrived and told him we were unable to contact the office then also and he gave us a time. However this time was incorrect and we were not ready when the driver arrived to pick us up. The driver did however wait and everything worked out okay.

A great service. Very friendly driver who spoke English and couldn't have been more helpful. Was at the airport waiting for us when we arrived and helped us with our bags. My only problem with this service was when I rang before arriving in Portugal to re confirm as the voucher stated we had to do. I was unable to get in touch with anyone. I tried multiple times. However in saying this we didn't have any hassles with no one there to meet us. Everything worked out.

Montserrat Royal Basilica Half-Day Trip from Barcelona

My Review
This trip was really good. It was just amazing to have a look around here. We got to hear the boys choir sing also which were really good. The funicular ride up to the top of the mountain has amazing views. Could have quite easily spent a whole day here. Half a day is really not long enough.

Barcelona Hop-on Hop Off Tour: North to South Route

Barcelona, Spain

My Rating
5 star rating: Highly Recommended

My Review
There are so many attractions to see in Barcelona and this was a great way to get around. We did the two days ticket and the first day we just sat on the bus and went around the three routes available. The second day we visited the various things we had picked out that we wanted to see. The bus dropped off and picked up very frequently and the hours that it operated were good also.
