Reviews of Martin Randall Travel










Unforgettable music by accomplished artists!
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.





Copenhagen Modern, 20 June-3 July 2023
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.





Exquisite choirs in beautiful settings
We heard world class choirs and one consort of viols in magnificent ecclesiastical venues, and a most engaging prominent musicologist delivered two very informative lectures. Accommodation, meals and general planning were almost faultless. Martin Randall do music festivals magnificently and obviously researched down to the last detail. Staff on hand during this festival were always personable and efficient.

I could find no fault with the tour operator: they provided a seamless and enjoyable experience.





Wonderful tour of great houses.
A brilliant tour of Great Houses in the North of England, visiting several well-known places, but also some less well-known ones.

You are always well looked after by their tour managers, and the tour leaders are experts in their field.





All I expected
It was a 5 day tour looking at churches in Lincolnshire. Very varied. The lecturer is an expert in medieval history and was able to tell us about the development of the churches, their use, their architecture.

Martin Randall Tours are well organised and interesting





An overwhelming and wonderful experience which last for ever.
The holiday was a visit to the West Cork Musical Festival where the musical performances were first rate and the arrangements including hotel and all facilities were excellent. It was a very enjoyable and unforgetable experience.

Martin Randall create dreams and then very efficiently bring them into reality!





Excellent organisation and staff all round.
I attended the West Cork Chamber Music Festival with Martin Randall Travel. Everything was well organised and the leader and guest speaker added a lot to our appreciation while sorting out any issues that did arise.

Martin Randall were highly organised both pre-departure and for the tour itself. The tour staff were music professionals who knew how to communicate with their clients.





The splendours of Samarkand and Silk Road Cities
An in depth historical and cultural experience, expertly researched, planned and presented by Dr Peter Webb, a senior University academic and published author specialising in Arabic, and the literature and culture of pre modern Islam. This tour will appeal particularly to experienced travellers interested to explore a country's history and culture at a greater depth. Complimentary reading materials and recommended reading list were much appreciated...

Dr Webb was supported throughout the tour by a tour manager, who attended to all administrative arrangements, and a very experienced local guide. There was a consistent attention to detail. The tour was well paced and individual needs catered for in a caring and professional manner.





A misleading description spoiled what otherwise would have been an excellent experience
Medieval Alsace was the title but should have been entitled Medieval Ecclesiastical Alsace as there was little we saw on other than, admittedly wonderful, churches and other Ecclesiastical buildings
