A wonderful peaceful pilgrimage

Not a holiday but a pilgrimage. Great year this year, the weather helped. And a smaller group felt much more intimate and more fulfilling. Flights were the closest to being on time in a very long time of travelling to Lourdes. The delay in the outbound flight caused by the airport not Tangney’s. The only disappointment wrt travel was the lack of thought re provisions on the flight. With such an early start and chaos at the airport most passengers ...

Not a holiday but a pilgrimage. Great year this year, the weather helped. And a smaller group felt much more intimate and more fulfilling. Flights were the closest to being on time in a very long time of travelling to Lourdes. The delay in the outbound flight caused by the airport not Tangney’s. The only disappointment wrt travel was the lack of thought re provisions on the flight. With such an early start and chaos at the airport most passengers hadn’t had a drink or breakfast. With the delay and the time difference elderly and sick where eating for the first time that day at 3/4pm. Not good!! Booking details stated a snack but a very small glass of water and a very small glass of soft drink (no tea or coffee!! Don’t they know we are British pilgrims and tea is essential?!) doesn’t qualify. Same with the return flight. Had it not been raised during the IC meeting we would have had the same issue in the return flight. Instead we were at least able to forewarn pilgrims to pack a snack. The hotel was as good as always, friendly, clean and well appointed. The food this year was not as good as usual. A lot of pork or veal, no chicken options and the vegetarian alternatives had not been thought through- I think the kitchen and waiting staff were all new and we were some of the first big groups in so they are not used to it yet but I think they need to have a rethink on the menus.

Middlesbrough diocese pilgrimage to Lourdes

It was a wonderful opportunity to spend time in the Domain in Lourdes, visit the Grotto, take part in beautiful Masses, services and social events and most importantly, to help others to do the same and feel special, valued and cared for and to thoroughly enjoy their pilgrimage to Lourdes.

It was a Religious pilgrimage to Lourdes with the Middlesbrough Diocese. . Coming from Cheshire I needed to stay at the Premier Inn Darlington Morton Park the night before , in order to be in time for the early morning flight ( perhaps infirm or poorly patients might have found a 5 am booking in time a challenge ) .The trip lasted 5 days / 4 nights . All the services and connections were well managed and went smoothly . A rep called each evening to the hotel and was always available if there had been any problem to sort out ( for me there were no such problems ) . I felt totally confident that Tangney Tours had everything in hand and covered . The trip went without a hitch , weather was good and I can’t wait for next year !

Rating for tour operator:

Very Helpful , friendly . Personable . Willing to be available . tried very hard to make a huge success of the trip . Always approachable . Felt any problem would be treated with priority . TTours were making sure this trip worked on every level . It was a great success due to their team efforts. and family approach .

The holiday was the Birmingham diocesan pilgrimage to the shrine of Lourdes in the south of France. The travel arrangements were organised by Tangney Tours and these arrangements went remarkably smoothly at a time when considerable difficulties were being experienced by a large number of travellers - especially those travelling by air. The hotel accommodation at the Saint Sébastien Hotel was excellent value for money with excellent food, pleasant, clean rooms and staff, who made it their business to be helpful. The religious activities were organised by the Catholic diocese of Birmingham and these all ran smoothly. Sensible precautions prevailed throughout with regard to keeping people safe during the covid-19 pandemic. A wonderful week was capped by remarkably nice weather in a part of the country where this is certainly not guaranteed!

Rating for tour operator:

Travel arrangements all ran very smoothly. Clear information was given before travel and air travel was on time with very good transport link coaches between airport and hotel. Clear information and instructions were available during travel and throughout the week.
