Working holiday but very rewarding
Lourdes pilgrimage with 400 helpers and 80 sick pilgrims
Lourdes pilgrimage with 400 helpers and 80 sick pilgrims
Rating for tour operator:Tangnay Tours
It was what I expected it to be and more
It was a pilgrimage to Lourdes rather than a holiday. It was my first with the Westminster Archdiocese and with the sick and those who were in wheelchairs. This element added to the experience, made it more meaningful.

Rating for tour operator:Tangney Tours is reliable and professional. Any tour operator can deal with a holiday/pilgrimage when all is well, but the sign of a good operator is when things don't. On our journey home there was a minor crisis with a fire at our train station (Montparnasse). I thought Tangney handled it professionally under quite difficult circumstances, in providing coaches to re arrange their pick up point and take us to Gare du Nord without too much inconvenience, and this on the busiest weekend of the French calendar. So well done Tangney Tours.
Good - excellent
It was a Pilgrimage rather than holiday with good balance of group activities and services and time for private reflection. Weaknesses were in the food provided both on plane and in hotels on occasion.. Our food on the outward flight was loaded on to another plane completely and we received was a small packet of nibbles and a small glass of juice/tea/coffee. Hotel food was often bland.

Acceptable
It is a pity that direct flights to Lourdes (Tarbes) cannot be arranged (as they used to be) as the two hour coach journey from and to Toulouse Airport and the hassle through the airport are quite a trial. It has also become very difficult and expensive to take parish banners on pilgrimage due to airline restrictions and charges.

Rating for tour operator:While the general arrangements for the pilgrimage seemed alright the meal menus at the Beau Site Hotel left a lot to be desired. The general standard of accommodation at the hotel was good.
Thank you for your feedback, however the group you travelled with wanted to travel to Toulouse.
We have fed your comments back to the hotel.
Fantastic pilgramage
We had a week in Lourdes , a remarkable place and everything was excellent from the moment we arrived at the airport until we got home - flight hotel transfers - everything went like clockwork meaning we could enjoy the experience to the full

Rating for tour operator:I arranged and perfectly planned my holiday with Tangney Tour. We flew on 21 July 2018 from London Stansted airport with Titan Airways to safely arrive in Lourdes at Lourdes Airport (Aéroport de Lourdes, Tarbes et Pyrénées). Then a coach drove us from this airport to the hotel where I stayed for 6 nights and then at the end of my holiday, a coach drove us to the Lourdes airport and we flew back to London Stansted Airport and landed safely. Lourdes is an excellent holiday destination with Tangney Tour and I will strongly recommend Tangney Tour to my friends who will be willing to travel and I can’t wait to be back again in Lourdes. I really had a fantastci time with a very nice weather and met very good people
