Excursions in Nottingham

“We were after booking a holiday to a far-off destination that we have never been to, so we needed some expert advice. We spoke to David who was brilliant, full of knowledge, and not pushy. We are eternally grateful to David for not selling us a holiday, but helping us to choose one, which he tailor-made to our desire. David is a credit to the company. I can recommend Trailfinders, we will definitely book with them again.”

“Went to skills to book a holiday for my parents. Anne the sales lady was amazing. Fab customer service they are happy and looking forward to the trip.”

“My daughter went for a week in Nice, she is doing French A level. She did language school in the morning and work experience in a café in the afternoons. She loved her host family, who was very welcoming and she spoke very highly of her French teacher also. Blue Stamp were well organised and communicated very well with us throughout the whole process, which was very reassuring when sending your child abroad alone for the first time. My daughter gained great confidence from the whole experience and has some great memories. She would love to go again. I would highly recommend the experience, especially the work experience part, which was challenging but truly immersive in language and culture. Many thanks to Blue Stamp. Jo, Bristol”

“Thank you so much to Dylan for helping us book a honeymoon! The service was brilliant and it was quick and easy!”

“Used to be an amazing place with great folk running it and amazing scenery, many a trek and hack over the years. At time of writing, showing temporarily closed, but actually permanently closed at the end of Feb 2023 (kids were gutted, as were we.) Review edited to show closed status to prevent people appearing hoping to ride. Greatly missed.”

“Alistair made us a bespoke 4 week trip to Singapore and Australia for our honeymoon, travelling on 5 flights, and at 13 hotels. He listened to everything we wanted to do and booked it all in such a smooth process. Whilst travelling everything was all sorted with no issues. Highly recommend using just journey to anyone to book any holiday”

“Travelled on coach trip to Brooklands Travel Museum. What a wonderful visit; superb coach, lovely & welcoming staff but most of all a well organised trip with minimal effort! Would be looking into future trips with the company, as from start to finish service was great & ultimately loved the experience. Worth booking & definitely will be returning.”

“A few minutes from the motorway, reasonably priced parking. Lovely cafe and a number of picnic tables. Several walks with differing lengths. The paths we followed were reasonably made-up and accessible.”

“It was a lovely experience to ride on the Sonning today. Kept shaded on board as very hot outside. Price was good value for the 1 and a half hour trip. Views of river and wildlife fabulous. Ice creams and snacks were enjoyed by all. Male and Female toilet available. Thanks to the staff, a lovely ride on a well cared for boat.”

“Very well run trips, Wendy and Bob go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly, one of our group was poorly, and one went with the group on the coach tour, the other hired a car and took the customer to the doctors personally. I can not recommend crossings motorhome tours enough. Catherine and I have booked again for 2024, cant come soon enough. I wish there was 10 stars. The tour leaders Andy and Rebecca are a great asset to the success of the tours, we have met some great people on this trip.”

“Excellent service from professional staff. A local service that is recommended.”

“We have used Kuoni in Nottingham for our last five holidays. The service is brilliant. The staff are always very pleasant and helpful and make sure the holiday is tailored to both your needs and budget. We have got to know Matt and Richard very well and have always had very special holidays with their help and expertise. We would recommend Kuoni Nottingham highly. The pleasant ambiance and always the offer of a drink whilst looking at holidays makes it a pleasure to go into their premises.”

“Our choir tour to Norwich last weekend was immaculately planned by Jo at Sound Escapes. Her detailed research, planning and communication made my job as organiser so much easier. We had a lovely and busy 3-day choir tour including an excellent coach and driver, comfy hotel, good restaurants, 3 stunning and welcoming venues for our performances, great promotion by Jo resulting in good audiences, and a lovely relaxing afternoon on a Norfolk Broads boat trip. Our choir has done a good few tours and this was described by members as "One of the best tours ever"!”

“Jo and Kelly organised a girly weekend escape for a large group, the activities included gorge walking, hiking and partying (and all the boring bits in between which we didn't see) and they were on hand throughout. These ladies went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time and the weekend went smoothly. I highly recommend Running Escapes UK and can't wait to use them again. Thank you.”

“The narrow boat was very good because I open the lock and drove the boat I think it was brilliant try”

“Perfect agency. They organized my honeymoon package to Sri Lanka. I love the country. I didn't have to worry for accomodations or travelling. It was all sorted for me. I could focus for the real things. I would do it again with them. Cheers”

“Have had several great holidays with Skills, most recently a weekend in London looked after by Andrew. Only suggestion would be, if you're going to make the drivers hand out questionnaires on paper, some pens to fill them in with them would be helpful!”
