McCabe Pilgrimages Traveller Reviews

A pilgrimage mainly following in the route of St Paul on his second journey.

McCabe are experienced at organising pilgrimage tours and do an excellent job.

The holiday was excellent with a very varied itinerary and a superb guide who had amazing knowledge of everything that we accomplished. A very good hotel with a short, easy walk to the Main Square and lovely staff.

My husband and I have been to 13 different holidays with McCabe and another one coming up in December. They are a very easy and helpful company to deal with, and the fact that all entrances, tips etc., are included is wonderful. All one needs is one's own spending money.

Group tour to Iona for 4 nights but the group was not mostly from one church so we all felt included. We had lovely tour leaders (Rev Henrietta and Fred)

McCabe are tried and trusted operators of Christian pilgrimages. This is the 4th tour I have taken with them.

Good Hotel Could have fixed time to meet with Warden and Volunteers to learn more about Abbey Ethos Rushed journey home from Iona with some pilgrims keen to catch booked flights and trains eve of return day

Good Guides on Island Tour Leader Excellent HENRIETTE HOWARD

It was stimulating.I like holidays like this. Spiritually fulfilling.

They are very efficient

Visits to world-famous sites with excellent local guide, team leaders and small tour party with a spiritual element to make the holiday a little different

McCabe Travel provided good feedback and advice as required, paperwork timeous and complete

We visited many sights during our week long holiday in Malta which covered religion and it's incredible history that goes back centuries. There is so much on this island to enjoy and respect. A superb place to visit that has looked after it's history and culture for others to see and enjoy. We were very impressed with the quality of the food and the cleanliness of the island.

We travelled with Mc Cabe Pilgrimages . We have been with them once before and were aware of their ethos of their holidays, religious, which suited us. They are comfortable to travel with, which is so important. We trust their judgment on choices of where we stay and what to see.

The itinerary promised a pilgrimage including some wonderful opportunities, like prayer in private chapels. In addition the programme was packed with all the best things to see in Vienna. The reality was a holiday where the local guide had a different programme to us, and the resulting holiday while including some of the wonderful sights did not meet expectations and had a difficult atmosphere throughout

Tour operator appeared to do nothing to sort the problems during the holiday. Need to employ sympathetic and efficient guides for such pilgrimages.

McCabe's 'The Trail of the Holy Family' gave us a fortnight's tour of virtually the whole of Egypt - apart from the coast and desert areas - from Cairo, up the Nile, partly by boat, to within sight of the Sudanese border, and also an add-on to Mount Sinai and St Catherine's Monastery.

This was our fourth trip on a McCabe's Pilgrimage. We have always found that they plan everything meticulously and have felt safe and well looked after. We are also provided with good accommodation and excellent guides. A lot is fitted in and we feel we have enriched our faith and seen many sites of cultural interest.

It was a trip to Iona we lost a day in Iona because of a ferry problem. Also a problem on the journey back to Glasgow.

I was disappointed in the experience after previous travel with McCabe.
