We had a good experience with the booking. Very accommodating as we built our itinerary and change suggestions. The Edinburgh hotel No11, was extremely good with the kids allergies and excellent food. The York Hotel was in the perfect location and they too were good about the kids allergies. The guide we had for the Rosslyn excursion was Excellent. It was the families favorite day. Overall a very good experience. The guidebook was very detailed and we liked everything it entailed. We liked the pickup from the airport and drop off at the end of the trip. We liked the personal guide and transport for Rossyln. For the Castle Howard excursion, we liked the personal transport and part self guided tour.
Thank you for everything. We will definitely use you again for our next trip.

Staff not very friendly, seemed very impersonal. Had a strange smell in the lobby while we were there. Accused us of not paying for the room even though when we checked in they indicated it was paid in full. It was a decent location right next to the tube and Hyde Park.

Very good guide. Informative. Wish we had more time to spend at the Tower (another hour at least).

We liked the private transfer and the somewhat self guided tour in the house and then allowed us to explore the gardens and rest of the areas.

Hi Rob

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback! It was a real pleasure helping you plan your family’s journey, and I’m delighted to hear that the experience was smooth and enjoyable overall.

I’m especially pleased to know that the hotels in Edinburgh and York were attentive to your children’s dietary needs and provided such a welcoming environment. I’m also thrilled that your Rosslyn Chapel excursion stood out as a favorite—the guide is truly exceptional, and I’m glad they made such a meaningful impression.

Thank you as well for your comments on the Castle Howard visit, your Royal London tour, and the private transfers. I’m so pleased the detailed guidebook and seamless airport transfers helped everything flow easily.

I'm sorry to hear that your experience at The Cumberland fell short of expectations. I appreciate you bringing that to my attention and will certainly take this into account when making future recommendations, as guest comfort and service are always a top priority.

It means a great deal to know you’d like to travel with us again—we would be absolutely delighted to help you plan your next adventure!

Warmest regards, Jane & The Team
