Martin Randall Travel Traveller Reviews

Based in Lincoln, this was a series of concerts of music primarily by Byrd and his contemporaries performed by various choral and other groups in a variety of venues connected with Byrd.

We have travelled with Martin Randall Travel many times before and this tour fully lived up to the high standards we have seen previously. It was well thought out and well organised.

Nine day journey visiting a wide range of houses. Based in Baslow, York and Newcastke. Informative and engaging lecturer and very efficient tour manager. Loveky weather and companionable feĺlow travellers all made for an interesting andenjoyable trip

As ever with any Martin Randall holiday I have booked, friendly and efficient back office staff, engaging lecturer and excellent tour manager who ensured everything ran smoothly.

What to be said? We were well lead, had an excellent speaker on the music. and enjoyedgood food (and weather) in the course of our week travelling from Colmar to Bonn.

Maertin Randall Tours are first rate, striving always, and usually successfully, to give total excellence

'Celebrating William Byrd' drew together some of the finest choirs in the field and gave them the opportunity to perform in magnificent churches. The combination of the music, the appropriate locations and the superb quality of the performances, all related to a significant anniversary, made it a memorable and unrepeatable experience.

This was a unique and imaginative programme, brilliantly organised so that the complexities of travel and timing passed by smoothly. There was always a member of staff on hand to advise and direct discreetly.

Most enjoyable and educational

Brilliant attention to detail

West Country Churches combined visits to great cathedrals and churches hidden away in the countryside. Would have been difficult or impossible to organise for oneself.

Learned lecturer and good organisation.

Another enjoyable Randell tour, I think it was our 6th

Tour Manager outstanding, Lawrence Wallington, Lecturer Dr Jarl Kremeier likewise.

First class accommodation and a good range of extremely professional concerts in varying and interesting venues

Martin Randall provided excellent information and made the booking and travelling experience easy and , most importantly, very friendly.

Just spent 5 days on a tour 'Celebrating William Byrd' on the 400th anniversary of his death. There were 10 concerts presented by such well renowned ensembles as Peter Phillips and the Tallis Scholars, Tenebrae, Gesualdo Six, Recordare and the Rose Consort of Viols. The concert venues and the music could not be faulted and the organisation by Martin Randall was as good as it gets.

The company is well organised, the staff are well informed, knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. With Martin Randall, you are looked after from the point of your arrival until your departure.

The tour was well organized, had a good lecture and a superb manager. I would recommend it highly to friends and you.

If by tour operator you mean Martin Randall Travel, I recommend to any one who will listen to my telling them how wonderful MRT is. I have gone on many trips with MRT and are signed up for 3 more. They meet my intellectual demands and curiosity and have such well run tours.
