Martin Randall Travel Traveller Reviews

A good experience although the sound quality was quite poor.

This is the first experience of Martin Randall Travel

As India is so vast, I decided I needed a tour with a focus. I chose a tour focussing on the architecture and Art of the Moghals and Rajputs. Staying at Delhi, Agra, Nagaur,Jaipur and Jodphur, we were accompanied by an expert who has been actively involved in the restoration of some of the buildings we visited and had curated one of the art exhibitions we visited. We had excellent hotels, wonderful food as well as unexpected surprises (eating within Rajput palaces, firework display in a fort, drinks in a palace lit by hundreds of oil lampls). We also had opportunities to see something of contemporary India. A truly excellent tour.

Everything worked as scheduled without ever feeling that we were being "herded along" or pressurised. Excellent timekeeping, no hitches. There was also a degree of flexibility and efforts were made to listen to people's requests and organise around them.

A wonderful musical experience. I stayed in an excellent hotel in such a wonderful location. The organisation of the programme was faultless and the staff excellent

An extensive tour of the wonderful landscape of the Ethiopian Highlands. Starting at the bustling capital, Addis Ababa and visiting the major historic sights, including Aksum and its' stelae field and tombs, the "new Jerusalem" and its' cathedrals, Lalibela and its many rock-hewn churches as well as more distant cave church sites and Lake Tana and the source of the Blue Nile and its' falls amongst several other fascinating places. It involved a clever mix of internal air and mini-bus travel to make the most of this large country often lacking in reasonable roads yet still driving through much of the most spectacular scenery between 5,0000 and 9,000 feet above sea level in order to be able to fully appreciate it. Accommodation was good and the food, both local and european was generally excellently organised. A truly memorable cultural adventure through this fascinating yet isolated Christian country.

Everything is brilliantly researched, planned, organised and delivered. It is fully packed with the most important sights and balanced with fascinating travel so, in practice, it represents excellent value for money as just about every thing is included so you can focus on getting the most from the experience and not having to deal with the otherwise time consuming travel arrangements and restaurant hunting in such a challenging country.

Castile and Leon: 10 days with an expert on all things Spanish (food and general culture as well as art and architecture). Excellent to visit Avila, Salamanca, Leon, Burgos and Segovia, as well as several smaller and more remote places, with such expert explanations and with intelligent and stimulating fellow-travellers

Martin Randall travel is exceptionally well organised, treats everyone as individuals, answers the telephone in person and delivers the widest range of cultural trips aimed at intelligent travellers.

We visited a wide range of public buildings and private homes in New England at the perfect time of the year to combine with leaf-peeping. The lecturer was extremely knowledgeable and the tour manager outstanding in her day-to-day organisation, and both were great company. Hotels and meals were excellent.

This is the 6th time we have done a tour with Martin Randall Travel and they never disappoint. The standard of tour management from pre-planning to on-the-road, is excellent, and the lecturers are highly qualified academics in their fields.

Very well organized. Excellent guides. Interesting itinerary covering food, wine and olive oil of the region. A very good tour.

They provided information in a clear and timely manner. Well thought out attention to what was required and response to any questions or individual concerns.
