Martin Randall Travel Traveller Reviews

Gliding along the Danube in great comfort with expert talks on Austro-Hungarian history and the music on board the boat, and splendid concerts in palaces, churches, chapels, and theatres in Germany, Austria and the Slovak Republic for a week.

Martin Randall Travel provides a range of superb all-inclusive high quality cultural tours focussing on music, art & architecture, gastronomy, archaeology, and history - with excellent planning and execution - and with real consideration for the quality of their traveller's experiences.

Our land based tour of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania covered so much more than any "cruise" itinerary could have hoped to do. So glad we chose to visit the Baltic states with Martin Randall Travel.

Treats customers as intelligent adults - what a refreshing approach!

This was a tour designed for the participants to learn more about the life and times of Frederick the Great and to visit the palaces he built and occupied near and in Berlin. It was outstanding.

Martin Randall is an expert in arranging rewarding and interesting cultural tours.

A good arranged tour

Were well arranged

Opera in Drottningholm & Confidencen, Sweden; namely, Orpheus & Eurydice by Gluck. The singing and especially the production lifted us into a fairytale world for about 90 minutes. With seats almost in the small orchestra, we felt part of the action: quite wonderful.

MRT looked after everything for the group. We were there to see the two operas, not to worry about how to get to the opera houses. Excellent hotel accommodation and very good restaurants in the evening. Any questions were answered immediately, and the tour manager took responsibility for everything.

Walking to Santiago, June 2017. Great group of peregrinos who interacted extremely well with each other and the very personable and knowledgeable manager and architectural/cultural guide who responded positively and constructively to all requests and questions.

Excellent in all respects: tour manager, architectural/cultural guide, accommodation, food, well selected parts of the Camino Frances.

We went to 4 operas. had excellent seats. Hotel was very near the Opera House. We had a very good local guide (speciality art and architecture) + a music expert.

Very well organised. They followed up my message about not liking fish, so it was easy when we went to the pre-booked restaurants. Opera tickets in very good seats. Hotel near the Opera House.

Cave Art in France. I had seen the British Museum exhibition in London and wanted to learn more about the subject. All caves looked at were different. I learned a lot about this subject by seeing the paintings in their original settings and about the people who painted them. The tour lecturer and local guides were all very knowledgeable about their subjects. The tour manager looked after all members of the group very well, wIthout her help, I would not have been able to manage the final cave. She helped me round the difficult bends, this enable me to see the one cave I had especially wanted to see. I had a very enjoyable and memorable holiday, and am motivated to learn more about the subject.

I travel with Martin Randal Travel because I have been impressed with the care and attention given to members of the group travelling. I have always been very well looked after, and have found the tours well planned, and tour guides and managers well prepared for the trip.

We had four nights in Munich for the 2017 opera festival, staying in an excellent hotel in central Munich within walking distance of the opera house. Four completely different operas on consecutive nights provide music of the very highest calibre. We were escorted by Tom Abbott, an art historian of immense erudition who kept us constantly entertained and who was solicitor of our well-being throughout. As guest lecturer Professor Jan Smaczny provide us with detailed introduction to Munich and its music and to the individual operas - superb lectures.

Martin Randall looked after us from beginning to end - we felt really pampered

Quiet rural setting, intimate performances, good food, good accommodation.

Well organised, intelligent
