Elizabeth,
I just want to thank you for sharing Stephen with us for our Harry Potter tour earlier this month. Stephen (alias George - you'll have to ask him) was a joy to spend the day with and have him share his knowledge with us - he did it in an interesting, yet fun way for the girls. Two of the teenage girls are rather shy and they weren't all that wild about spending the day with a stranger when I first mentioned what we were going to do. They quickly became comfortable though with Stephen and thoroughly enjoyed him and the entire day! Stephen was even flexible enough to squeeze in some shopping for the girls in Oxford - big hit - WOW factor was high!
I, myself, was a bit concerned about booking and paying for this tour simply through the internet intially. I finally decided, it was worth the gamble. What a payoff!! It will be a day we will all treasure for the rest of our lives.
Thanks again for sharing Stephen and a delightful HP tour! If you ever need a reference for a prospective customer, I would willingly make myself available.
Best wishes,
Barbara Miller
Dear Luxury Vacations UK,
We feel compelled to write you about how outstanding we feel Teresa was on our tour. We had horrible weather and she made it irrelevant with her depth of knowledge, outgoing personality, and her ability to be flexible. But most importantly, she was able to mesmerize skeptical 20 year olds and engage their much older parents. Her communication abilities are impressive. We were so pleased and still speak about that day as a highlight of our trip. We have passed your information onto our friends with a very high recommendation.
Thank you.

I want to THANK YOU SO MUCH for the assistance you provided us in arranging our day tour of London. We saw so much that my head was swimming, but enjoyed every minute of it. Bridgette was fantastic - so knowledgable, easy to understand and friendly. It was like touring with a good friend. My husband was more knowledgable than me on the history and locations so he was thoroughly impressed and amazed at all we were able to see. Even the weather cooperated as it was sunny!
Best wishes and tell Bridgette Hi from us!

I want to thank you for providing our family a wonderful full day tour of London. Our guide was Andrew Stevens and he was superior. He quickly became part of the family (even though we had to teach him some proper English we learned in Texas). Andrew was very knowledgable and was able to modify his tour "on the fly" when we wanted to see something different or not see something that was on the tour.
He was entertaining and kept our attention for the entire day. Not an easy task since serveral of our family members are borderline ADD. We voted Andrew our favourite tour guide and we have toured Paris, Rome Prague, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Avignon, Venice and several smaller cities in Europe.
Thanks again for providing a wonderful "Luxury" tour of London. We will certainly request more tours on our future trips to London.

Hello Elizabeth,
What a wonderful tour. We all loved John; such a dear man. My, what a wealth of information! It was a total joy to be with him and hear all the history he shared with us. We could never have managed on our own. We have just had the vacation of our lives! Everything John planned worked so well and he managed to get in even more than we expected.
I want to send John a little something I made, and would appreciate either your address, or his.
Thanks so much. Betty White
Dear Elizabeth
Just a short note to say that my Japanese guest really enjoyed their day in London with Glen on Saturday. He was very considerate and they managed to see all the sights (and more) that we had proposed. Please pass on my thanks to him. We will certainly use your service in the future.

Dear Elizabeth,
I want to thank you for the wonderful week we had in London. My daughter was very taken with Adrienne, she is already looking forward to going on another tour of hers. You have spoiled us too much to ever go on a group tour with many other tourists, ever again. I feel this was not our last trip to the United Kingdom. Thank you again,
Rita Bengyel
Dear Liz,
I want to let you know how much we enjoyed our tour with John. We couldn't believe how well informed he was on so many different topics. We had a wonderful cruise and saw many sights, but Bill and Craig both said their favorite of all was the Canterbury Cathedral and it was because John gave us such a fascinating tour of it. He put in long days and was always on time and was charming and fun to be with - it was truly a time of pure enjoyment and no stress. I also appreciated your help in planning our trip, and updates about the airport situation - England is our favourite place of all, and hopefully we can come back soon!
Sincerely, Suzanne Caver
P.S. I also have to say that I felt safer flying out of Heathrow than I would from any other airport - I know a lot of lives were saved by the excellent security in your country.
Hi Elizabeth!
We had such fun on our tour. My mother has been completely engrossed in the book Andrew gave her on our way to the airport. She loves it and is so very thankful for the thoughtful gift. On our first guided day, I found my camera didn't work and Andrew used his camera and took some pictures of us. Would it possible for you to email the pictures to me?
Michael (my hubby) and I are planning to return to London next year (2007) and would very much love to schedule. Once we determine the dates I will contact you and we can explore the possibilities.
Thank you for all the care in the arrangements you made for us we had a fantastic time with memories for a lifetime.

Hi!
I wanted to tell you that from start to finish, our experience with your company was nothing short of EXCELLENT! Beginning with my first e-mails, everyone was professional and courteous but most of all, friendly and so willing to go out of the way for us.
Sandra was a gift! We rate her as EXCELLENT in every category. When we return to the UK, not only will we go through your company but would request Sandra again. Please send warm regards to Sandra and anytime you need a recommendation, let us know and THANK YOU!

Elizabeth,
I can't tell you how much Ed and I enjoyed the day trip to Oxford. Despite the weather, which was on and off so they say, it was a splendid trip in every way. The city was fascinating and the tour of Blenheim Palace was absolutely fantastic. It goes without saying that Andrew was the ultimate guide. Knowledgeable, informative, charming and gracious to a fault, he was a pleasure to be with. He never failed to offer assistance and was at hand at all times.
Thank you does not seem to cover the appreciation I feel for all your arrangements. But it is extended with deep gratitude.
Best, Jim
Elizabeth,
Thank you, so much, for all the wonderful recommendations and for making our trip to London so enjoyable. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tours with John, and learned a great deal about British history. We loved touring the National Gallery and the British Museum with Adrienne, as well. She was a perfect guide for three women, and we were able to cover a lot more, and learned much more than we would have accomplished without her help. I will certainly recommend your service to anyone else who may be planning a trip to London in the future!
Thanks again, Becky Scott
Elizabeth,
I just wanted to let you know that Helen and I had an absolutely wonderful day at Windsor Castle and Hampton court Palace with Suzanne. She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and a pleasure to have as a travel companion. The history and the stories behind each of these places is fascinating. I cannot emphasize enough how much we appreciated our time with Suzanne - her vast range of detailed knowledge and expertise thoroughly impressed both Helen and I. Thank you again for helping me decide upon this particular tour. It was a memorable experience that I will remember forever!
Best regards, David Stone
Elizabeth,
Melinda and I want to thank you for your guidance that put us together with Sandra. She was absolutely wonderful - a great guide, driver, and friend. We hit it off beautifully, and she was everything we'd hoped for. In other words, we give her our highest recommendation and congratulate you for employing her!I hope we can manage to get our friends to London with us in a year or so, and maybe then we can repeat this terrific experience with Luxury Vacations UK. You can be certain I will recommend your services wherever I can.
Thanks again! Brad
Dear Elizabeth,
I just wanted to write you a quick note now that we are back from our vacation in London and Portugal. We thoroughly enjoyed our Luxury Vacations UK tour of London, and will be recommending your service to all of our friends visiting London in the future.
Our personal guide Andrew was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and courteous. He was able to personalize our tour specifically to our tastes and interests, knowledge and culture. We are very happy with the day spent with Andrew, and used his insights to enjoy more detailed and leisurely visits and personal tours of several museums and churches in the following days.
Thanks for your service and keep up the great work !

Hello Elizabeth,
We would like to say John Mercer gave us a wonderful experience in London. Our thanks to again to him. We'll remember our time with him for very long and we intend to come back sometime.
Sincerely - Eric and Margret Felix-Nystrom
Hello Elizabeth - I only wanted to thank you for sending Peter as our tour guide with the First Timers London Tour. He was absolutely brilliant - a true asset to the company. We certainly learned a great deal about London's history. After only a few moments with Peter, we felt completely at ease with him with no worries what's so ever. You might relay to him that the picture we took of him in front of Tower Bridge came out beautifully.
Kindest regards - Vicki Crawford, Amarillo TX - USA
Hi Elizabeth,
I want to you to know that all your efforts were definitely worth it!! We had an absolutely terrific time. I don't think I would change a thing.
I can not say enough about John!! It was a perfect match - Although I'm sure he must have had moments when he questioned his chosen profession, but considering how long we were together, he is a very patient man. His vast and diverse array of knowledge was astounding!!!
Please thank John for us, I don't think I will do Scotland, no one will live up to him!!! And A Big THANK YOU to you!! I hope we will be able to do something your way again.
Sincerely. Kathryn and David Lenton
