Trip to Maastricht for Andre Reiu…
Our trip to Maastricht for Andre Reiu was good. I can understand why we had to change at a more local hotel as the Holiday Inn at Eindhoven Airport was too far away. It was a bit of a faff and limited time to freshen up. Not sure if hotels nearer Maastricht would be more expensive but it might be worth it. Maybe up the price for the tickets as we were at the very back and the stage was so low which meant seeing was difficult. Good atmosphere and worth a visit.

Northumberland Adventure
The Driver was very helpful & entertaining with local information. The coach was spotless and the views from the coach were great. My next tour will be a bit longer than 3 days to get to know the other visitors. I think it would be a popular trip picking up at Scarborough Station with 2 nights in Newcastle for a grand night out!

Back today from a great break in London/Abba Voyage with family and friends. The hotel,hotel staff and food were excellent, highly recommended! However the person who made it even better was our brilliant, funny attentive coach driver Dave. From the onset of the break he couldn't do enough for everyone aboard, even when 2 quests on the coach took a tumble, he was there to pick them up. He is such a lovely genuine person and hopefully we will get him again when we book our next trip. He is such a credit to your company and whatever he is being paid is not enough!!!
