Well organised and prompt

Pilgrimage to Lourdes is not classed as a holiday in my opinion - it was spiritual and nice to share our faith with others ...

Thought provoking

The pilgrimage gave you time to see how people coped with physical and mental affliction whilst still appearing to participate at all services with the assistance of the young carers

Point of pick up could have been closer to home particularly at 6.30 am

Birmingham Lourdes Pilgrimage

The pilgrimage was a great experience but the journey there was horrendous

The pilgrimage was a great experience but the journey there was horrendous

Rating for tour operator:

We travelled on the 70+ seater coach (Acklams)which was so cramped. No leg room whatsoever. The central isle was also too narrow. Even the passport control employee who boarded the coach in Dover commented on how cramped the coach was. We disembarked in Calais just after 6pm and didn’t have a stop till after 11pm. Then the next stop was at 8am - half an hour from Lourdes. The drivers were 0laying music all night too which prevented passengers sleeping, a lot of com0laints were lodged when we reached Lourdes. On the Wednesday we went on a tour on Coach 5 (which I learned had about 10spare seats on the journey).I asked the Tangney Rep if we could transfer to this coach for the return journey. (3 of us). She said she would do her utmost and let us know. The following day, she came to,our hotel and said she had arranged to transfer us to this coach, We were very obliged to her for arranging this. Coach 5 on the return journey was much more comfortable and the two drivers were very good, although we did miss our ferry. Only problem was there wasn’t a comfort stop from there till Corley Services in Coventry. We could have done with a stop before this. The packed lunches which were provided left a lot to be desired. Most of those distributed to the passengers were thrown out. These were much better in previous years. On a positive note A minibus did collect us from our hotel and take us to the coach departure area. Please don’t use this 70 seater again

Thank you for your feedback, we held a meeting with the coach drivers in Lourdes to discuss this. We inspected the coach and it met the same standards as the one we transfered you to. The majority of pilgrims travelling on this coach had positive feedback however, we will of course re-consider using this coach in the future.

The packed meal provider is the same as previous years, again we will review this with our office in Lourdes to find out if anything has differed from previous years.

We look forward to welcoming you again in the future.

Outstanding experience

The trip to Lourdes was amazing and as always, the professionalism of Tagney during the booking process was faultless.

Organised fun

A wine tour covering several vineyards which organised lunches and a good balance of free time.
