McCabe Pilgrimages Traveller Reviews

My holiday to Israel was both one of the most exhausting and reviving holidays I have ever been on. In the week we saw so much with early mornings etc but what we saw was fascination. What I learnt has equipped me for the rest of my life. It was also great to travel in a big group and get to know new people that you wouldn't usually go on holiday with.

Our tour operator helped make the holiday very easy, I didn't have to worry about anything which is so nice when on holiday apart from choosing from the collosal buffets!

Pilgrimage to Ethiopia, led by a retired bishop. Generally, very good hotels, although internal air transport was often a little tardy. Impresssed with the security arrangements at the airports and most of the hotels. The tour included visits to sites at Axum, Lalibela, Gondar and Lake Tana, as well as the Blue Nile Falls. Absolutely stunning buildings and scenery. Wonderfully moving communion service at Kossoye, with the backdrop of the Simien mountains. One of the best holidays ever.

Helpful and had the whole thing organised

I took part in a Pilgrimage which included a sponsored walk in aid of The McCabe Educational Trust Projects. I had a really wonderful experience which will stay with me for a long time.

Very friendly and helpful nothing is too much trouble will definitely travel with them again.

We had excellent leaders, a well-balanced programme, wonderful opportunities to worship and sing in the places of the Bible.

Well organised and reliable.

It was a pilgrimage/sponsored walk, taking in some of the less 'touristy' aspects of Israel and not shying away from the political situation.

Very knowledgeable about the area. Well organised with good standard of hotels and excellent guides.

Sometimes you think how could a week away make a difference in my life in winter? What about doing something out of the ordinary. Going with a group of people you may not know? However experiencing the tranquillity of less holiday makers. Enjoyimg the comfort and excellent cuisine of hotels in perfect locations to your holiday destiations. Taking time out to walk , relax , eat scrumptious meals and make new friends, I would advise anyone to plan this into your next years diary. Start the year with an adventure of a ljfrtimf.

Excellent planning , Regulars updates. Any changes to itinerary are circulated well in advance. Online and personal consultation re any queries. I have found this very helpful, always someone there on the end of a phone. I would highly recommend McCabes .They are very helpful,, caring and creative. In holiday ideas.

A packed itinerary with visits to places I was interested in.

McCabe Pilgrimages - clearly well experienced in this type of tour.

Based around a sponsored walk to raise funds for projects in the West Bank

Small specialist operator. Excellent personal service Clear travel docs Seats pre booked but easy to alter without extra charges

McCabes always make sure you are looked after in every detail. Local guides are of highest standard.We visited Bethlehem , Jerusalem, Acre, and other sites of interest in Israel/Palestine

McCabes Pilgrimages can't be beaten.

A programme built round sponsored walks and visits to institutions we are supporting. The arrangements were very good although perhaps we tried to pack too much in.

McCabes are a very caring firm who have great links in the Holy Land.
