Interesting stops but a bit too much on WW I.
Tour of Quarry too long & too much standing. No place for a break.
Enjoyed Normandy & Minen Gate very much.
Our tour director was awesome! He listened to us & adjusted as he could to accommodate everyone.
Loved the very small group size!

Excellent tour of Britain from London, ending in Edinburgh. Enjoyed walking through castles, Cathedrals, streets of Cities and towns, touring the back roads around the countryside. So many opportunities for photos along the drives and in the towns. Hotels were amazing and the meals were fantastic. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable on the geography and history of Britain which was great. The driver was great and was so competent driving and gave us bits of history as well.
Blue-Roads exceeded my expectations. Had a really wonderful time, will travel with them again. Our tour guide Jessica made this trip spectacular. Jessica is well suited to guiding and went above and beyond to make it enjoyable and rewarding for all. Jessica was so friendly, fun, professional and kind, she researched and answered all the oddball questions, was extremely well versed with the places we visited and loved. There were individual requests to stop at places and Jessica made that happen without losing any momentum. Loved the relaxed pace, thanks for a great experience Jessica and Blue-Roads.
Superb navigation app along with well-chosen route friendlly accomodation with a particular mention to Hillingford B&B in Ramsey. All cases transferred smoothly. We added extra days in Douglas and were grateful for the room upgrade at the Ellan Vannin hotel which was quite busy. The route itself was great but the oath in need of some signage maintenance
