ABOUT OUR TOURS

If you like to travel at a leisurely pace that allows you time to contemplate and enjoy your surroundings then our exclusive tours are for you.  We travel in a small group of about a dozen guests.  We travel by private mini coach and use the same vehicle and driver, Keith, for the duration of the tour enabling guests to settle in and be comfortable while Keith takes care of your comfort and safety.

Our tours are designed to give you a deeper appreciation of life in Britain.  We offer you the opportunity to meet a variety of local people with whom you share interests in common such as horticulture, golf, love of food and wine.

The hotels we patronize are all exceedingly comfortable with a distinctly British flavour.  Each hotel is personally selected by Andria and offers friendly and efficient service, all creature comforts and, above all, excellent restaurants.

It is our objective that your trip proves memorable and serves as a time filled with new experiences and laughter.  We want you to return completely relaxed with a true feeling for the history of the country you have visited and with new friends with whom you share interests in common.
