Excursions in Southampton

“It is very hard to explain, really lovely people.”

“Our experience with Southampton Cruise Tours was 5☆! We arranged private chauffer service from Heathrow to Southampton and it was stellar. Top notch comfort, beautiful Mercedes, pleasant driver, excellent customer service and safe driving. Fantastic way to begin our vacation. We also arranged a custom transfer from Southampton to Highclere Castle (Downton Abby) with Nick. He is delightful. He provided commentary along the way to and from, so professional. He really shows how much he loves his job. Nick was also there upon our return after a 2 week cruise aboard the Caribbean Princess cruising the British Isles. He picked us up at the cruise terminal and transferred us to our hotel at Heathrow Airport. Very comfortable way to end our adventure. No worries and again ever the professional. You can not go wrong with Southampton Cruise Tours. We felt like Royalty! Nick will take excellent care of you. Until next time....Cheers!”

“We went on the Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral tour. Our tour was amazing. Andrew was our guide and we all agreed (4 people) that he was the best guide we have ever had. Andrew was so knowledgeable and funny. By the time we got to either location he had explained so much that it truly helped us know and understand what we were seeing. Stonehenge is an absolute must see. It is unexplainable how those ancient people accomplished this. Salisbury was amazing also. The dedication and beauty of building this was amazing to see.”

“Always extremely helpful, with cruise information. Reliable and always quick to respond. If urgent, email as often they are on the phone, but can respond to emails while on hold. My go to cruise agent.”

“Did a 4 hour fishing trip with 3 friends. I'm not a fisherman but we were looked after and all caught fish. Awesome experience. Great staff.”

“We have booked cruises with Ocean World Travel over many years. They are absolutely fantastic as nothing is too much trouble. They have a lot of experience and are very efficient. The Agents are extremely respectful, considerate and well mannered. They also make sure to advise of any discounts and offers. We would not book with anyone else and are pleased to have found them.”

“Absolutely incredible experience. We went as a family of 5. It was spectacular and so much more than we had even hoped for. Adults and kids alike had a wonderful time. The sights were brilliant, the skipper was fantastic and so kind and the experience itself of going on the rib boat was just out of this world. Highly recommend.”

“We booked a multi day Yorkshire Dales trip with On Foot and it exceeded our expectations. The On Foot team was very responsive, helpful and always answered my, albeit many, questions. I am so appreciative of their attention to detail. They provided detailed guides for the walk including gps tracks and those made us feel more comfortable and safe. The local contact, Shaun, was also very helpful and kind, checking in with us each day to see how we were doing, encourage and provide tips. They also booked table reservations for us at great restaurants and we were happy to have these as some places were fully booked. We are already thinking about our next trip with On Foot!”

“Very good value. Enjoyed the cruise. Thank you to the crew. Boat was comfortable and quiet and it was an interesting trip.”

“Truly magnificent. The short boat trip was perfect for this land lubber to get his sea legs. Apart from the sights the commentary by the skipper was fabulous and worth the money alone. There's a fella doing a job he loves. Perfect. 100%.”

“Coach travel very comfortable - brand new coach - good day trips & driver (Graham) was excellent! Food at hotel (The Headland Hotel Torquay) good quality & lots of it. Spa treatment - best massage ever thanks to Mel!”

“Wow what a fantastic family experience. I took my two teenagers on this ride and it made their trip! Highly recommend and reasonable price too! Great fun and and amazing views.”

“We came in to TUI store Southampton looking for a holiday to Orlando America with our family. Having never been we had no idea where to start, but after sitting with Debbie at the Southampton store she soon settled our concerns and helped us with finding the right hotel and helped us with booking the Disney and universal tickets, Debbie went over and beyond our expectations and explained everything to us and showed us exact locations of where will will be. We were so impressed we booked there and then. Highly recommend Debbie so full of knowledge and friendly.”

“My wife and I went on our honeymoon to LA with Bon voyage. The trip was absolutely amazing and that was all down to our travel agent Jess and her colleagues. We originally booked the trip in 2019 but due to Covid we had to postpone until 2023. Bon Voyage supported us throughout, always understanding and dealing with our countless amendments and date changes, and not resting until they knew we were happy. We loved the destinations they picked, each having its own unique quality and created lasting memories.”

“Our group enjoyed a wonderful afternoon on the 3 rivers cruise. Great commentary, a nice fish & chip meal (or veggie nuggets) and very pleasant staff.”

“We went as a family to the annual light display. Every year gets better and better. The visits during the day are just as spectacular and the family annual ticket is the best since sliced toast. Every visit has something new to see. Nothing beats fresh air and exercise.”

“I have just returned from a Angela Holidays Weekend to Staffordshire Arberetum . It was amazing. Please can I thank you for how well everthing was organised. Driver. Coach. Hotel. Timing. My First trip with you. But certainly won't be the last.”

“The agents at Barrhead always go above and beyond to help us with our holiday bookings. We've been using them for a number of years and they are faultless. Thank you Luke and the team for always being there”

“Amazing service, friendly knowledgeable staff who are keen to find out exactly what you want and work hard to deliver it for you. Simply cannot fault them.”

“I had a great day with Seahaven Charters after booking a celebration day with ten friends and family. The staff were really friendly and we had a lovely day on The Solent. Really was very nice to unwind and chat together on the water and being on the Sealine Motor Cruiser allowed us to relax and talk more freely, as did the champagne. I was so impressed that I'm going to book an out of season deal for some of my clients as I believe it's the ideal opportunity to impress important people and get to know them properly. Can't recommend these guys enough, really friendly and they worked hard to give us a fantastic day. Thanks Mike and Steve.”

“Highly recommended! Chris, Sue and Diana are amazing. They look after your every need. We had a great breakfast, relaxing cruise, amazing views and a lovely chat. The champagne and cake was the ‘icing on the top’. Thank you so much for making our day so special!”

“Fantastic corporate away day on Oceanique with the brilliant hosts Nadia & Mark - beautifully well looked after by local experts plus the surprisingly lovely weather was a bonus! Thank you Mark & Nadia, we will be back!!”

“I recently had the pleasure of spending half a day aboard with Solent Leisure Charters. While I didn’t experience a full charter, the time spent on board was fantastic. Crew members Jon & Danni were professional and welcoming, and the boat itself was immaculate and well-equipped. I look forward to returning for a full charter in the future!”

“An unforgettable experience from start to finish. We chartered a day trip on Norty Too for a group of 12 to explore the coast of the Isle of Wight and finally be dropped off at The Hut for dinner. We were exceptionally well looked after by Fran and John who were incredibly knowledgeable of the area, they took us to see the forts and the needles before anchoring down and having a dip in the sea. This was brilliant to see everyone's inner child come out as we splashed around in the sea and jumped off of the diving board at the stern of the yacht. The yacht itself was incredibly luxurious, sparkly clean, spacious and felt brand new, I have never been on a boat quite like it. At no point did any of our group feel scared, uncomfortable, thirsty or hungry. Fran and John couldn't have done anymore to make the experience any better, the whole group want to do it all over again next year! Huge thank you to everyone at Norty Too Charter. Matt”
