The Art & Islands
of Venice

Our visit to Venice was marvellous in every way and in the context of Covid was an organizational triumph by you and your team! Peter's organ recitals made every venue magical and Tom's passion and encyclopaedic knowledge of fine art brought every breathtaking picture, glorious building and stunning visit to life in an unforgettable way. I look forward to going on future tours with Peter Medhurst. I will complete the questionnaire over the weekend with glowing feedback! With many thanks, best wishes and congratulations for giving all participants a taste of normal life after such a tough period of solitude and isolation.

This is just a quick line to thank you once again for all the hard work and fire fighting over the ever changing muddle of Covid measures you put into the trip to Venice with Peter and Tom. In discussions with both of them it emerged how much of the work load was really on you and I, and I am sure the others in our really nice group, appreciated it. In all sorts of ways this trip was unique for me, even though I am a very seasoned worldwide traveller with two long spells living abroad. Both Peter and Tom combined amazing erudition with very appealing personalities and made every day exciting and fun, though for me as probably one of the oldest in the group at 82  the physical demands were at times a bit taxing. I returned with a wealth of new insights into Venetian music and art, if only I could retain it all. My husband who sadly would never have managed at 91! was quite jealous. Till my next venture with Tailored Travel all best wishes and kind regards

I just wanted to say a big thank you for all you do to make sure our trips with Peter run smoothly. I had a wonderful time in Venice.  It's such a beautiful city and Peter and Tom did everything they can to make it a memorable experience.  However your organisational skills, efficiency and eye for detail help ensure Peter and Tom can run such a good trip.  Peter always sings your praises, and justly so! Peter mentioned that a trip to Bologna is in the pipeline but you are still finalising details.  It sounds very good.  Please could you send me the details as soon as they become available. Very best wishes

Now safely back home, I’d just like to thank you for all your meticulous planning for the Venice trip.  It was amazing to be able to walk across an empty Piazza and to be greeted with such warmth wherever we went. I really appreciated all your detailed instructions regarding the Covid regulations.  Thanks to you I managed to complete the form without going into meltdown this time. Best wishes,

Just wanted to say how well organised and interesting my trip to Venice was. Tom and Peter looked after us so well and Tom's memory is amazing, even very small details. Big thank you to you for arranging my flights out and in of Bristol airport - that worked well and thank you for the extra work. Best wishes to you and the Company.

A quick thank you to you, Tom and Peter: we had a really memorable week in Venice. This is my second TT break.... Berlin last year with my Arts Society and now Venice music and the baroque. My brain is stretched but very pleased with itself! I have, I hope, retained a bit of the new learning. Best of all, we were inspired to go on and learn more. The best outcome of a break.

Weather, food, hotel and tours were all excellent. It would not have been a tragedy if the Venetian bin men had succeeded in delaying our return!

I must start by thanking the Tailored Travel team, especially Rebecca and Michael, for making my job as group organiser hassle-free. Everything went smoothly and ran like clockwork. In Venice I must thank our wonderful guides, especially Viviana and Federica, who were absolutely excellent. Also Carla and Antonella, who guided us on other occasions. This was our second tour with TT and more than lived up to expectations.

The tour to Venice was very enjoyable. I have had a good number of emails through form the travellers expressing appreciation. TT always does a splendid job with the tours, they work like clockwork, and Nicola is wonderfully on the ball with any minor adjustments that need to be made. I love working with her. Many thanks.

We all had a marvellous time in Venice, all your efforts on our behalf were most appreciated. The hotel is excellent and most convenient to everything. They could not have been more helpful. Your two guides were brilliant, and kept us fully informed and the things we saw were really very interesting. The free time let everyone see the other sites which would not have interested everyone. Even the weather was good, a great time to go. Thank you very much indeed from all of us.

RS, East Horsley March 2015

We wanted to let you know how very much we appreciated and enjoyed our visit to Venice with you in January. It was a packed schedule, but one which was constantly stimulating and fascinating. The planning of where we should go and what we saw was so varied and truly faultless every day. The whole tour has given us so very many happy memories which we will always treasure. With all best wishes - and the hope that we may join another of your European tours in the future!
