Martin Randall Travel Traveller Reviews

A tour of a lifetime for those interested in Fine Art led by a most knowledgeable Art expert and shared with a group of like-minded enthusiasts. Even if you think you know a lot about Art - think again. You learn more and see images previously unseen. We saw more Impressionist works and those of other 'isms' than you could see in Europe. We were introduced to artists we would have probably bypassed without a glance and appreciated more of the background culture that created them. Treat yourself.

The beauty of Martin Randall Travel is that you are exposed to expert knowledge as standard, often with the addition of special access - sometimes even behind the scenes. Never disappointed and always with something new to learn, travelling amongst other like-minded enthusiasts.

Well organised and planned to give an excellent experience of architecture by Dixon Jones group . We visited buildings and areas I would not have had access to or had the personal insight of Edward Jones . I could not have done this alone .

Very well organised ,reliable , attention to detail , always interesting approaches to the topic and country , personal touch valued .

From being met at Gatwick through a week of wonderful concerts,motors, dinners and excellent company to parting at Gatwick several days later, there was only efficiency, care and friendliness. It would be difficult to better this company.

I could not be better erved

This tour was about looking at Art in Japan. We were shown a wide variety of art including gardens and architecture covering a range of periods. This was as advertised and was not intended to be an indepth tour about any particular aspect of Japanese art It was a busy tour but with adequate rest times in good hotels. The lecturer and tour manager were outstanding.

Martin Randall travel have many wonderful cultural tours and it is hard to pick which one to go on next. We have been on a number of tours with the company and plan to go again.

The attention to details of MRT is outstanding. Their lecturers and staff do a first class job and are efficient and excellent 'companions' on the holiday. Hotels very well chosen - cannot fault them!

MRT have proven that they can organise complicated events and cater for the wide clientele that they attract. Having travelled with them now on many occasiohns we know that their tours will be conducted to a very high standard.

This was our first Martin Randall holiday and I hope many more will follow. Initially we considered them to be too expensive but now we have experienced the quality of the experience we think it's great value for money.

Martin Randall try to think of everything and they have excellent and experienced staff. Of course things go wrong but they are sorted out most efficiently

The music and musicians were uniformly excellent, the hotel was very good and perfect for most of the venues.

Martin Randall Travel has to be the cream of small independent operators. The holidays are not inexpensive but you get what you pay for - a superb cultural holiday experience.

Martin Randall led tour. Exquisite music and matched by magnificent venues. Excellent lectures and additional content/ tours. Well managed and coordinated. An all round never to be forgotten experience.

I had an absolutely inspiring holiday with Martin Randall Tours in Japan. The tour leaders were fantastic with the highest level of academic input as well as careful attention given to personal and practical needs of the group. As a result the group was united in purpose and remained friendly and congenial. Meals and hotels were very good with some outstanding evenings together at excellent restaurants. The practical issues of transport and general logistics went like clockwork without a glitch and the overall mood was one of collective happiness, learning and relaxation that the best holidays achieve. I was immensely pleased with the trip and intend now to travel on more tours like this one.

The tour operator was Martin Randall Tours an organisation with an excellent reputation. It was my first tour with them so I have only this experience to go on, but I was impressed at every level. I would highly recommend them to my friends and anyone looking to travel with the emphasis on academic and cultural learning. The program was quite intense and one needed to be fit and interested. It would not be the right sort of tour for those wanting relaxation, luxury and glamorous eating experiences. Personally, I like to learn when I travel and appreciated the emphasis on history and culture.

Wonderful concerts organised for us and performed in beautiful sacred buildings in Toledo. Excellent lecturers whose knowledge deepened the experience and a high quality of organisation for our comfort. Definitely a holiday to remember.

Excellent administration and documentation which set out clearly all the details of concerts and activities. Take trouble to ensure comfort, care and enjoyment.
