Just a joy from start to end

Martin Randall. TBH, my mum did all the booking, but I am now interested in travelling with them myself on future tours. Also, I think pretty well all the other travellers had been on multiple previous Martin Randall tours which speaks very highly to the organisation's merit

Another Wonderful Martin Randall Holiday

I took part in the Martin Randall Music Festival - Music Along the Danube. It was excellent; excellent river cruiser including accommodation, food, services and amenities. The music and the venues were of a very high standard, and the locations were fascinating. The organisation was excellent and the attention to detail of the fist order. A thoroughly professional approach made for another wonderful MRT holiday.

Cultural tour of northern Germany, focusing on the history and legacy of the Hanseatic League

We visited the Hanseatic towns of Lubeck, Rostock and Stralsund, looking at churches, museums and civic architecture, from medieval times to more recent history e.g. the legacy of the GDR period. We stayed in excellent hotels and enjoyed local cuisine.

Opera at Verona and so much more

Fantastic 4 night trip to Verona. 3 nights at the opera and 4 mornings visiting special places in Verona, churches, museums and just strolling through the streets with our expert guide. We also ventured outside Verona to Villa Arvedi for a tour followed by a delicious lunch.

Martin Randall were excellent providing an expert lecturer and also a tour manager. Nothing was too much trouble, including transport just for my husband and myself to Venice when BA cancelled our flights and we rebooked from Venice unlike the rest of the party who flew back from Verona.

Archaeology made accessible and fascinating to amateurs

We went round a variety of sites + St Magnus Cathedral and visit to the Italian chapel (very moving). Got a feeling for life as lived in Orkney

Glutted with Gorgeous Sights

We began with some cultural highlights of Munich and its surroundings, then made our way to Oberammergau via the fascinating castles of Landshut, Neuschwanstein and Linderhof. The culmination of the tour was the performance of the famous Passion Play, which lived up to expectations. We returned to the Munich airport via the beautiful Wies Church. Glutted with gorgeous sights, we also learned a great deal about the art, architecture, and history ...

Rating for tour operator:

Martin Randall always has excellent lecturers and Tom Abbott is possibly the best, at any rate one of the most popular. The nuts-and-bolts side of things is always well done as well (we had a very good tour manager who saw to it that where possible we had refreshment breaks in nice places, etc.). The standard of hotels and restaurants is high and the cultural side is beautifully planned, often with the most impressive events coming at the end. The other people on the tour always seem to be congenial, so meals are a pleasure.

Opera in Verona

The opera was disappointing as a musical experience, but entertaining for being spectacular in production. Verona is beautiful, our hotel was luxurious, we did special things like going to lunch in an old villa 12 km from the city

Martin Randall took care of everything, even when our flight home was cancelled and they found us alternative flights at a slightly earlier time

Munich and Oberammergau

Never having visited Munich before, I was unsure what to expect. We wanted to see the passion play and 4 days in Munich was part of the tour. In the company of a wonderful expert guide and a delightful tour manager we fell in love with Munich- it’s churches, architecture, museums, food and beer halls. It’s a city that is full of history with friendly locals. It’s a perfect place for a city break. The main reason for our trip was Oberammergau...

We drove through the beautiful Bavarian countryside, into the Ammer Alps. And like the beauty of the countryside, the wonder and brilliance of the passion play did not disappoint

French Gothic by Brightstar, 20 Jul 2022
Holiday Rating:

Absolutely topnotch, well-researched, stimulating and enjoyable, lovely locations with comfortable hotels, good food as well!

French Gothic - a small group tour of gothic cathedrals in northern France, expertly led and delivered. Quite a full itinerary, but with some downtime and enough comfort as well as plenty of good food as part of the holiday. An excellent introduction too to this lovely area of rural France!
