McCabe Pilgrimages Traveller Reviews

We spent 10 days visiting Holy places, and all chose the 3 extra day relaxing by the Sea of Galilee at the end. Everything went smoothly and the relaz time was a good idea in order to gather our thoughts, write down our experiences and just relax.

McCabe looked after us at every stage of travel.

We have just returned from a short break in Rome - what a magnificent city! Our Hotel, Della Conciliazione, was situated in Borgo Pio, a little back street close to the Vatican. We grew to love our little "shabby" street, which just oozed life from lunchtime onwards. The Hotel was very clean and comfortable and English was spoken at reception. Our tour manager, Stefano, was always on hand and kept a close eye on us when out as a group. His English was excellent and he was always pleasant. Paolo de Santis was our guide and what an excellent job he did!! His English was excellent and he brought the history of Rome to life, made it all so interesting!

Everything put in place for us by McCabe pilgrimages, thank you to them!

Pilgrimage to Turkey looking at sites of Early Christian church , Pergamon, Troy, Gallipoli.

Local guide excellent

We saw and did everything we could have wanted while on the trip and more. There is certainly no question that you get your money's worth!! The only thing that we would have appreciated is a day off to truly relax somewhere in the middle (some of our group were so tired they took a day off halfway through to recover but this meant missing excursions). Our guide was simply the best joining us in our praise and also telling us about all the history and significance of the sites in great depth. All travel and arrangements were expertly organised with no hiccups at all.

Expertly organised with seamless planning!

Pilgrimage visiting holy sites in Israel & West Bank. Packed programme of visits that was well organised with excellent local guide arranged by tour operator

Well organised programme with engaging local guide

A well run and managed study holiday.

Efficient booking with McCabes via the St Albans Diocesan Office. A friendly visit from the rep to the preparation evening was appreciated and the same friendly face appeared in the second part of the tour.

We saw a lot of places in the time. Rather too many as it was difficult to remember which was which afterwards. However, I do not know how this could be remedied other that having more days.Overall a wonderful experience with a very pleasant and knowledgable guide.

I did not book the tour but was part of a group. We were ell looked after on the tour and I was satisfied with their input.

Although our pilgrimage lasted only six full days in The Holy Land, each day was packed with visits, very cleverly organised and arranged to maximise the time available. Our guide was unbelievably good, passing on his knowledge with tremendous skill and patience. Our coach driver was extremely competent and very friendly. A superbe professional team!

Very well organised and very professional! Easily accessed when required, with very friendly help and advice.

Very enjoyable

Good September weather enabled very memorable visits in Rome,Siena, Florence and Assisi, Our hotels, guides, coach driver and fellow-pilgrims made it a holiday to treasure and we shall remember it for a long time, especially when the English winter arrives

Excellent in every respect
