Tour Reviews for European Summer Tours
An excellent tour. Our tour guide had great knowledge of the areas travelled, and was very attentive to all needs. A highlight was the wine tasting at Lungarotti and the town of Spoleto. I would certainly travel with Albatross again.

We just did the most amazing tour of Provence and Italy with Albatross. We are telling everyone about this tour and we have done now 10 Albatross tours and this was the BEST EVER!!!!! Congratulations Albatross worth every cent.

I thought you may appreciate some feedback on the Italian Tour we recently completed. To say that we were completely satisfied would be an understatement. The arrangements your office made for us worked out very well with no hitches whatsoever. The tour itself was well paced. Having the ability to stay in one place for several nights at each location made a great difference to travelling and allowed one to soak-up more local flavour, sights, food feeling etc than whistle stop tours. I think this is a one great advantage of the Albatross'way of doing things.
Also I would like to offer a word of commendation for our Tour Guide. Nothing was too much trouble for her. Her knowledge and organisation skills are first class. I would like to think that she will get some feedback from Albatross on this additional to the end of tour feedback sheet. The bus driver was also very skillful and helpful. A delightful person who did his best to accommodate our needs. With a team such as this you are on a winner.
We will happily recommend Albatross as a tour provider of choice and will come back to you again when we next plan an overseas tour/holiday.

My wife and I have recently returned from the 17 day tour of Provence,Tuscany and Umbria....it was our first bus tour experience and we are writing to thank Albatross for a very enjoyable holiday.
The relaxed nature of the trip with the three and four day stopovers in excellent accommodation and in great locations made the experience a pure delight for us......
The distances travelled and the service provided by our tour leader and our bus drivers was most enjoyable and allowed us to enjoy ourselves immensely......
Our Tour Leader was absolutely fantastic and related very well with everyone and provided a most professional service with her experience, knowledge and organisation.......
Once again thank you Albatross we will certainly recommend your services to our friends and acquaintances who are considering overseas tours...
We are looking forward to planning our next overseas trip and we will certainly consider the Albatross programs on offer.
Cheers

It has been a fantastic few days with Albatross. Each day was special - we really can't nominate any special individual experience as it all was fantastic.
The care and concern of our group leader was outstanding - always smiling - full of imagination and information.
The food was fantastic throughout our tour, thank you.

Our tour manager was brilliant – great history and cultural knowledge. Allowed personal time while covering the important destinations. His management abilities ensured a great tour. Thank you Albatross!

We simply wanted to say that the whole tour was absolutely marvellous, we would never consider using another tour company if your company operated in the area we wished to travel. We have already recommended your company to some friends and family. We love your idea of "experiencing" rather than "seeing" and the mostly 3 night stays and not "early bird" starts.
On our small tour - 13 including ourselves - it was interesting to note that there were four people who were repeat clients.
Thank you sincerely for such a wonderful holiday, we realise it just "does not happen" - a lot of hard work goes into such a successful operation.
