- MKMichelle· June 12th, 2024Great experiance funnnnnnnnmmmmmTrip date: May 2024
- Cheryl· May 27th, 2024The only complaint I have is that I didn't receive solid paperwork prior to the trip. I kept being told that we were meeting at the Parkgate at 6, so we thought it was a meeting only. It turned out that not only was it a meeting, but dinner and staying over that night. I have never done a trip like this before, so was not at all clear about what to expect. Thankfully, the concierge at the hotel told us we were booked for the night of May 17 with the tour group, which finally helped us understand what to expect.Show moreTrip date: May 2024
- HTHarley· October 11th, 2023Excellent tour - great guide , driver and nice group of people on the tour.Trip date: August 2023
- STSteven· September 30th, 2023Great knowledgeable tour guide and an especially talented driver. Both teamed up to work around unpredictable weather. Almost every stop on our tour was a highlight. Outstanding accommodations too!Trip date: September 2023
- LWLois· September 29th, 2023Interacting with Tour Radar as the middle man was most annoying. Asked the same questions repeatedly for months because they didn’t read my replies. What part of “I’m not purchasing trip insurance” is so difficult to understand??? Find another route to reach the individual tour company you want to travel with!!!Show moreTrip date: September 2023
- SNSuzanne· August 6th, 2023Great trip that spans the history and scenery of this gorgeous country. Knowledgeable guide and small group touring.Trip date: July 2023
- SGSam· May 15th, 2023Jeremy was excellent as a tour guide. A wealth of information. Good sense of humor. Easy going. Steve was a very good driver, though a bit too fast on a few roads. What kept the review from being excellent was the following: 1)Less than comfortable bus. 2)Some bus rides that were too long in spots. 3)A few stops that were too long like Castell CochShow moreTrip date: May 2023
- KFKaren· September 21st, 2022The tour experience was exceptional and exceeded all expectations. A few things stand out. First and foremost our tour leader - Emmie Freeman. She was so well prepared and so sensitive to the needs and interests of the group. She was knowledgeable, humorous and clearly loved what she was doing and sharing. I cannot thank her enough for helping us to best understand Wales. Our driver John was also a key contributor. He got us everywhere safely and also contributed with his own knowledge. Both Emmie and John took particular care of my elderly mother - a walk more slowly, ensuring easy access and such sincere care. Secondly, I would thank everyone for the preparation in advance. There were no surprises except the good ones - a special stop or going out of the way to meet our interests. All of the places we stayed were more than adequate. The small size of the group was also fantastic. We go to know each other and shared insights along the way. I am greatly appreciative of the tour operator’s extreme flexibility. We got to know the country of our ancestry. Thank you very much!Show moreTrip date: September 2022
