CICERONI Travel Traveller Reviews

Superbly organised, interesting visits, excellent restaurants chosen

As always, Ciceroni excelled in organisation, interest, timekeeping ... everything went smoothly.

Seeing Montenegro and Croatia for the first time made one realise what a politically difficult part of the world the Balkans are. Also how poor they are and how important Tourism is to their economy.

Nothing is too much trouble

Extremely informative and well run holiday, often in difficult circumstances. Uniquely expertly guided by Tom Duncan, we feel nobody could do it better.

Ciceroni were very helpful and very efficient. An excellent selection of treasures to visit, well organised. Knowledgeable assistance from the pleasant local guide, who spoke excellent English.

Our guide paced our holiday with enormous care so that we covered the great treasures of St Petersburg over six days without ever feeling too tired or overwhelmed. We visited the Hermitage on three separate occasions rather than spending 8 hours in one day getting exhausted. Two guides shared the load and this also helped, one broadly covering Russian and the other non-Russian art. our visits to palaces allowed lots of time to visit pavilions and parks; this included changes of plan to include rarely open places which showed that our trip was not mass produced.

Ciceroni is totally trustworthy

The holiday was a joy to both of us and we had an excellent guide in Tom Duncan who was most knowledgeble about his subject which is why we chose the Ciceroni holiday because we knew it would be excellent and value for money

As above they attend to every detail and stay in very good hotels

Five days spent seeing Northern Ireland with talks on the history as well as the current situation

Cicero09ni has mastered the art of combining a mass of information with an easy approach to learning The care of clients is second to none

It fulfilled every expectation in unprecedented good weather.

Efficient, considerate.

As always, on Ciceroni tours, we were given excellent expert guidance - many to privately-owned art collections - as we explored the estates of the Tweed Valley. Learning was informed with wit while paintigs, sculpture, furniture and porcelain were seen not only in the contexts of rooms, but of whole estates. The genealogy of the noble families whose possessions were were allowed to see provided interesting and vital historical backgrounds to each visit.

Ciceroni Tours have provided me with delightful, relaxing and informative holidays both at home and abroad for many years now. The groups are small and the company both when travelling together and when relaxing over good food and well=chosen wines is congenial. In particular, Tom Duncan is a toue operator whom one soon comes to count as a valued friend.

We had a wonderful week in the Borders visiting some of the Treasure Houses of the Tweed Valley

Ciceroni cannot be faulted

The sun shone , the travel by air controlled coach was very comfortable The expertise of the leader was brilliant and fellow travellers added their knowledge to add to the holiday. My hotel room was very comfortable and we ate very well. My only worry was it was to condensed and we were all very weary at the end!!

A fund of knowledge, a good sense of humour and a lightness of touch. Very helpful in every way to all.
