The planning process was easy and there was constant access to support via the website. The itinerary was ideal and worked really well for us. The hotels were both very good - and slightly quirky - which was great. The price was very reasonable and the trip was very good value. We were very pleased with the trip. We will definitely be using the site again.

My sons and I had the best time together driving from Rome to Normandy. The trip was trouble-free. I really appreciated that the person who called me to finalize my travel reservations let me know that one of the hotels was not available. She made sure that I got a comparable hotel for almost the same price as my original choice. It made me feel good that there were still companies that cared about their clients.
