A Pilgrimage of Many Blessings and Lovely Memories

The Rome Pilgrimage was out of this world. With the assistance of a very experienced and friendly tour guide throughout each day got better and better. The itinerary was well put together exploring Rome's wealth of fascinating religious and historical sites. The excursions to the Basilica Museum and Chapel were also excellent. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and again friendly. The second tour to the Catacombs was also very informative...

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and again friendly. The second tour to the Catacombs was also very informative. The Hotel Olympic was a lovely place to stay. It was very central and close to the Basilica. There was lots to see within easy walking distances. The Jet 2 flights were very good with no delays. The restaurant was well chosen and served typical Italian cuisine and was close to the Hotel. The whole group enjoyed all aspects and were sad to leave.

A perfect week of reflection, prayer and great fun

Myself and my sister went on the Marist pilgrimage to Lourdes, organised by Tangney Tours We travelled by coach. My sister is quite frail and needed a lot of support. She got this in spades from everyone in the group and from the pilgrimage director, Father Michael, and the two drivers, Steve and Dave. They were unbelievably patient and helpful to everyone, many of whom were elderly and infirm. It was a privilege to watch their dedication ...

She got this in spades from everyone in the group and from the pilgrimage director, Father Michael, and the two drivers, Steve and Dave. They were unbelievably patient and helpful to everyone, many of whom were elderly and infirm. It was a privilege to watch their dedication and care. Nothing was hurried and no one was pressurised. the activities during the day were well palanned and we had some lovely and very interesting outings.

Tangney Tours was superb. The preparations were thorough and their representatives were most helpful whenever we needed help and information. The coach, from Atkinsons, was very comfortable and quiet and well chosen for such a long journey. The drivers, as I said above, were quite simply brilliant. I cannot speak too highly of them.

I was very last minute booking -- such patient staff - courteous and helpful. Available whilst we were away and always ready to help if needed. Ive travelled with Tangney many times over the years with small and large groups - consistently good service and always with a smile!

Rating for tour operator:

Tangney Tours provided a full service and, together with its local partner tour companies locally in Palestine/Israel and in Jordan, deployed highly knowledgable and fluent tour guides, experienced drivers, modern comfortable coaches, access to the Holy Places, intersting tours of other sites and very satisfactory accommodation. We even had, on this tour, the pleasure of the company of Mr John Tangney himself while in Jerusalem.

A joyous return to a loved destination

My wife and I met on pilgrimage to Lourdes, France 43 years ago. 3 years later we married. This year we returned to Lourdes to celebrate 40 years of marriage. We had a wonderful time.

The door to a new world opened

My trip was a Pilgrimage to Lourdes not a holiday as such, but between the excellent care of Tangney Tours and the Society of Our Lady each day was indeed a 'hollowed day' of incredible blessings and thus the gateway to a renewed life. The way Tangney Tours and the Society of Our Lady worked with people of all kinds of physical, intellectual and emotional needs was truly inspiring. The pilgrimage was an experience of a family in which no one ...

My trip was a Pilgrimage to Lourdes not a holiday as such, but between the excellent care of Tangney Tours and the Society of Our Lady each day was indeed a 'hollowed day' of incredible blessings and thus the gateway to a renewed life. The way Tangney Tours and the Society of Our Lady worked with people of all kinds of physical, intellectual and emotional needs was truly inspiring. The pilgrimage was an experience of a family in which no one was perfect and yet each imperfection rather than being a source of hindrance or embarrassment became the vehicle that enabled each person to join with others and through the needs of the other discover their own hidden gits. As someone was heard to say, "If all the world leaders could come and experience this then the world would be a very different place to live in'. Thank you for an amazing journey ...

Trip to The Holy land - Good

The whole trip was well organised - "it did what it said on the tin". El Al flight and service were good. The hotel in Nazareth was very good. Manger Square Hotel I Bethlehem left quite a lot to be desired. The rooms were on the lower floors (we were on the 1st Floor), the reception was on the 7th Floor and the dining room was on the 6th Floor.

Manger Square Hotel I Bethlehem left quite a lot to be desired. The rooms were on the lower floors (we were on the 1st Floor), the reception was on the 7th Floor and the dining room was on the 6th Floor. This would have not been a problem had the two lifts worked satisfactorily. Most times one had to wait ages for a lift to stop at our floor even though we pressed the right buttons to call the lift.. There was very little variety in the food and was virtually the same on the each of the 5 nights. Our Spiritual Director, Fr Stephen Myers, and the guide, Majid, were excellent..

Rating for tour operator:

Tangney Tours issued an itinerary before the trip. This was followed in its entirety and, when there were occasions when because of the crowds the guide deviated from the programme, did other things and always returned to the itinerary which meant that we got 'more'. The guide Majid was very knowledgeable, had a good sense of humour and looked after every pilgrim in his charge. Some pilgrims were not as able as others physically but Majid catered for the whole group.
