The place we went were good, it just felt a bit rushed. Trying to get so much in each day. was awesome and new lists about the place we visited.
I expected and got a deeper insight into this area than my previous visits. Well done. A great TD and driver. I hope my next Trafalgar tour in a week or so is just as satisfying.
Amazing scenery. Excellent tour guide (Matty Dyas) and driver, Wayne. Nice pace, but occasionally felt rushed. Lovely travel companions and excellent seat rotation. Fabulous local guides.
The guide and the driver were excellent. I felt the drive.To st ives was a little long. And tiring the accommodation was good. Well, chosen hotels. I would certainly take another trafalger tour.
The basic itinerary was good and was enhanced in many different ways by and enthusiasm and experience.
Perhaps the novelty has worn thin since my first tour with Trafalgar in 2013.
excellent
On one day we were taken from Paignton to the far side of Dartmoor twice, making a total of 6 hours on the bus. This was exhausting. Two of our nights were at Bideford. This town is very disappointing. A shame as the rest of our destinations were excellent.
