    Peter was incredibly fun, knowledgeable and personable. Very informative commentary and a genuine interest and concern for the tour members. Kelvin was an outstandingly adept and careful driver who made us all feel incredibly relaxed by his command of the bus. Kelvin was very kind and personable as well. All in all, a great trip!!

    Lovely group size of 26 on the trip and fellow travellers were considerate and gracious that I dozed off unknowingly while traveling from places to places. Extra legroom space, panoramic window view and seat rotation were perfect for the countryside views. All the hotel rooms were good. There were ample time in Shakespeare's birthplace, Bath Abbey and Stonehenge. The only pity is I missed the Edinburg Military Tattoo by one departure date later!

    The route allowed us to see the countryside, and the stops along the way had clean facilities.The tourist part of me loved the destinations. I grew up in England until 1958 & we never got to see all these places then. We went to the seaside once a year, but that was it.
