Monteverdi in Venice
Just wonderful. MRT's organisational skills and attention to detail were exemplary.

Martin Randall Tours have a reputation for excellent value for money - this tour was no exception.





Monteverdi in Venice. Music of the highest standard, impeccably organized.
5 days in Venice, listening to live performances of 17th century music by musicians of the highest international standard. Performances took place in interesting palaces and churches, and there were accompanying very helpful lectures. The whole added up to a coherent and very satisfying overview of Monteverdi's achievements. The tour organization (travel, accommodation, meals) was impeccable.

Very attentive to detail. There are always many MRT guides on hand to make sure you don't get lost and everything runs smoothly. MRT certainly had plenty to deal with on the first day, when fog closed all the London airports, but we all arrived in Venice in time to enjoy the first evening.





Excellent lecturers
A good experience although the sound quality was quite poor.

This is the first experience of Martin Randall Travel
Thank you Mr Calvert, we appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback. We are aware of the issue with the sound quality, but rest assured, we are taking the necessary steps to ensure this doesn't happen again in the future. I am glad you enjoyed the event; we look forward to welcoming you on another History Weekend in the future. With best wishes, MRT.





Wonderful first experience of India
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.

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.





Glorious music in La Serenissima in sunshine
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

A comprehensive cultural adventure around the Ethiopian Highlands.
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.
Rating for tour operator:




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.





Very rich cultural experience
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
