UK Britain City sightseeing Trips

Excellent tour- largely due to Theo, our outstanding tour guide who went above and beyond! Hotels - mixed. Most were excellent but the hotel in Hoi An, despite a great location, did not live up to the"upgraded" category. Food - outstanding Itinerary - overall was excellent, although I thought that the time in Mekong could have been better spend elsewhere; perhaps another night in Hue or Hoi An. Overall, it was a great tour!

We had an amazing time on this tour, helped by the beautiful weather we experienced . We felt we got to see the real Vietnam, not just the touristy sites. We really enjoyed the variety of activities set up for us: from bike tours to boat trips, from cookery classes to meeting local artisans. We loved the visit to the organic farm in Hoi An as we have an allotment ourselves. The standard of accommodation was very high throughout and the Tour leader - Theo- was fantastic: extremely knowledgeable as well as caring. We really enjoyed his company and his infectious cheerfulness. We have no hesitation in recommending this Tour to others .

Excellent trip, very full-on, lots to do. Two brilliant tour leaders in Sam and Andrew, endlessly helpful and obliging. Malaysia seemed to me more confusing and overwhelming than other SE Asian countries I've visited so it was great to have them both in charge. Some lovely hotels, good walking tours and lots of help with what to do in free time. Flexibility as well to allow us to make different choices. The Homestay and Mangrove boat tour in Langkawi were particular highlights. Travelling time wasn't that long and always broken up with loo/refreshment stops.

The tour was well organized and was jam packed but not that it felt overwhelming. Our tour guide always catered to our needs and was very informative about the different places we went to. We had enough free time at each stop to explore and were given reference points to get back to our meeting point so that we would not get lost. He was very easy to talk to, gave us lots of food and site seeing tips, taught us some Italian phrases and even gave us a Christmas present on Christmas eve! The bus ride (and driver) was great fun and overall really a memorable experience!

This was my first experience with Colette tours, and I will definitely be booking another tour with them. Every aspect of this trip was done, planned perfectly, with no hidden expenses. All a person had to do, literally, was show up . There was never any question or confusion as to where to go, when to be there, Etc. The variety of things we did and saw was very interesting and planned very well. Never felt rushed, yet still had some down time, just enough to not start to wonder what to do. All of the included meals were excellent . Any tour guides, drivers we had were very knowledgeable, down to earth, very likable, making sure all travelers could hear as any tours moved along, via the earbuds sound system. This was really nice, because even if you were way ahead everyone or way behind everyone, you could still hear what the tour guide was saying, making it possible for everyone to move at their own pace. Regarding our accommodations, the location was perfect. Not much room to move around in the room itself, but not a big issue; we were not in our room much anyway. It would be nice if, in the lobby area, there would be complimentary water and coffee or, at least, a bubbler or place to fill up water bottle. Can't say enough about Colette tours. Even prior to booking, there is full disclosure/video of exactly what you will be doing, what you will be seeing, where you'll be staying, how you'll be getting around, what is and/or isn't l included in the price. Looking forward to my next vacation with Colette Tours.

The Best of Italy tour is terrific and covers the important parts of the country if you want a good overview of Italy. The itinerary is well paced and the activity level is very balanced. The hotels were very good and we were taken care of very well by both our Travel Director and our Driver.
