My sister booked a tour holiday then asked if we wanted to join her The very helpful telephone assistant told my sister there were only 2 spaces left and held them for me until the end of the day The booking was very easy and she answered my multitude of questions with patience I m impressed

Super 5 days on Geoffrey Chaucer

Super 5 days on Geoffrey Chaucer Food superb staff very friendly and helpful trips very well organised Only criticism being that maybe too much was fitted in I could have spent a whole day in the tulip garden for example It was y first experience of river cruising and I am sure I will go again
