Reviews of Martin Randall Travel










Excellent tour of Sicily
Tour was faced with hurricanes, volcanoes, unexpectedly closed facilities and still managed to keep the tour full and interesting.

First-rate lecturer and manager. I look forward to doing more Martin Randall tours in the future.





Civilisations of Sicily - a cultural tour that embraced art, architecture, food, wine and topography.
This was an enriching experience that provided a good insight into the historical evolution of Greek, Roman, Norman, Spanish, Arab ... interests, competing (if that's the right word) for the development of Sicily over centuries.

Excellent tour manager who unintrusively kept itinerary fluid, carefully choosing restaurants with fine menus - local dishes and knowledge of local vintages; a fluent English/Italian speaker who, with the tour lecturer, 'opened doors' to additional sites. Excellent tour lecturer with encyclopedic memory and sense of humour.





Wonderful experience - informative and fun
Pompeii and Herculaneum, plus the many Roman and Greek sites of the Bay of Naples were wonderful, the the overall experience was magical - excellent lecturer and professional tour guide made it all so easy. Hospitality at the 5* hotel and the various restaurants was so welcoming and generous

Highly professional and experienced





Return to Italy after lockdown.
It was great to be travelling again in spite of the wretched mask wearing.

You already know.





A lifetime's ambition fulfilled.
This was a specialist tour studying the architecture of Andrea Palladio. I have been interested in this for 70 years, and a tour of them is something that would have been difficult to achieve as an independent traveller.

Martin Randall go to a lot of trouble to get things right, but it shows in the very high prices. For a specialist tour like this, they can be justified, but I would never use them for a run-of-the-mill destination. So I could only recommend them to a certain type of traveller.





Well-led tour of Greek and Roman sites in the Naples area
Visits with knowledgeable lecturer to several ancient sites including Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum.

Care and attention to detail, with well planned itinerary, excellent tour manager, well-chosen hotel and local transport.





Another unique experience !
"The Divine Office" is a unique Martin Randall creation of a week in Oxford filled with the very best in sacred choral music. This is the third time we have participated, so "unique" happens regularly with Martin Randall

We had a tour manager, a local guide, and lecturer all three of whom were very informative, helpful, and provided lots of attention for the eight participants on this tour. The food was wonderful, the choice of hotels was fantastic, and the pace of the tour was optimal





"The Divine Office": a specialist music holiday
Seventeen concerts of polyphony, including the Divine Office at the correct hours, with superb choirs and many college locations in Oxford. A unique experience in good company.

Organisation, efficiency and skilled and friendly staff cannot be faulted.





Incredibly uplifting to the spirit
Divine Service at Oxford - getting up at 1am to experience all eight of the services as thery would have been in the pre-reformation monastery. A unique and most spritually rewarding experience = along with all the other church m usic concerts as well.
