Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price. Crew were professional without being stiff about it.
Glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you on another trip.
Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.
Thank you. We've taken the point about the transfer and are reviewing it.
Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Dorms were tidy and the common areas were where the group actually gelled. Simple food, well made, and enough of it.
Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Recommended.
London done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Would book with them again.
Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.
