Tour Reviews
Reviews for Austrian Tyrol
All those who went on the Austria holiday agreed it was excellent and possibly the best to date. Our tour guide was superb, good-natured, full of information and with a very good (English) sense of humour. I look forward to learning what the U3A has planned for next year's holiday.

Having returned from our wonderful holiday in Austria, I would like to take this opportunity to say just how pleased we were with the whole holiday. We were very impressed with Tailored Travel - they had every part of our arrangements so well planned. I would have no problem recommending Tailored Travel to anyone.
