Bordeaux River Cruise.

Oh, it was just wonderful from start to finish, a fair bit of rain but it did not stop our fun! Lots of 9am wine tasting in beautiful chateaux haha, oyster farms, just amazing, the food, wine, trips are all lovely but I think it’s the crew that make it so extra special, just all such genuinely warm and kind people. It was my husband’s 1^st river cruise and he loved it so much (and is normally quite grumpy and hard to please so it must have been good lol!).

Jenny was a delight to work with. Incredibly easy communication style, very helpful ideas and suggestions. Would not hesitate to work with her again, in fact i will seek her out. She took my rough draft ideas of a French river cruise with Switzerland add-ons and turned it into a fantastic and fool-proof holiday. All was included: planes, trains, auto transfers and ship. Good choices of hotels as well. She has a relaxed manner. Just a delight.

What a fantastic holiday! This was our first River Cruise and we all didn’t know what to expect.
Throughout the cruise the friendly staff were there to help and the food was delicious.
The excursions were great and the cruising was truly wonderful.
The whole holiday experience is one which we cannot wait to repeat.
A big well done to yourself, the team, the crew and the locally appointed guides.

Jenny has been great! She has been great at responding quickly and giving honest recommendations. This is our first cruise and if we enjoy it, we aim to take all the itineraries eventually.

My wife and I recently used Jenny as a travel consultant for a 14 day cruise up the Nile River. She was excellent, prompt and helpful. Seamless service. Doug (from Canada)

Absolutely incredible service, after my initial enquiry and chat they emailed some holiday ideas with full itinerary and details within a couple of days of my enquiry and there was no pressure to commit to the choices, very professional and exceptionally friendly, would highly recommend using this company if looking for your first river cruise.

Jenny is such a wonderfully warm and helpful guide. Making life for us so much easier knowing we don't need to worry about anything because she has arranged it all. I will definitely be recommending her to friends and family.

Jenny really listened to what we were looking for, and offered a spot on recommendation for us. We are really excited about the options she provided, and wouldn’t have found it on our own. She was always very responsive to our questions throughout the process and we’re so happy that we worked with her.

We had a fabulous time. Six star service and loved it all...especially the food and guided E bike rides and sailing at night in Budapest.

The trip was great, as was the weather after the first day or two. Had a terrific time, and the food on board was really lovely. The stables were lovely, with beautifully hand painted walls and ceilings, and chandeliers!! That was my favourite trip of all! Of course, all the sights were fantastic. All in all, a lovely trip and the ship was also great with super friendly staff, and the other guests were lovely, we made some really lovely friends. Many thanks for your help in arranging it all.

We wanted to go on a river cruise in France and Jenny came up with a few options for us to review. She took the time to understand what we were looking for, what was important to us and our budget. Once we had booked it, she was available for advice, questions and support. Definitely we will use Jenny again for ideas, advice and booking a holiday.

Jenny is a warm and caring professional who took care of every detail of our "empty nester" celebration 14 day river cruise from Budapest to Amsterdam. She found us a great deal on a cruise, booked a beautiful room with a view of the river, and checked on us during every part of our journey to see that we were well. I would recommend her to everyone who wants to have a worry-free travel experience with someone taking care of every detail. We enjoyed our cruise very much and hope to use Jenny's services again!

River cruising is something I never thought I would want to do. I’ve always liked to visit places spontaneously, and I also suffer from motion sickness as well. However, after speaking with Jenny, who really listened to my concerns and understood my love for history, she recommended that I take a river cruise down the Rhine. She assured me that I would see at least 40 historic castles along the way. Putting my worries aside and listening to Jenny’s advice turned out to be the best decision. I enjoyed every minute of the experience and am so grateful for her guidance. Thank you once again for such an incredible recommendation!

Jenny was very good at helping me decide on the best river cruise for my first experience. She looked at options for me and communicated with the cruise company to make sure I got a good deal. I expect to be using her services again soon.
