An excellent well organised holiday with a good guide. Good food and wine which was just what we needed at xmas
everything smoothly from start to finish and was accurate as stated in the brochure
The tour was a nice sample of all that there is to see. I knew I didn't have the time to really explore everything that could take months to do it the way I would want to. The tour was fun we had a great group of people and our tour manager Peter Scott was terrific. Taking care of every need and really bringing to life the history of each stop.
This holiday was exceptional value for money and exceptionally well organised - you get a lot for your money!
Our third tour to south Devon again proved most satisfying.Our tour manager was very pleasant throughout our tour.Best wishes from 'Mr john Cox.
