The stunning location of Norway & our wonderful guide Vidar

Varied,well chosen tour of beautiful gardens.An excellent tour leader and steady reliable driver.Bronagh our guide ,had everything well planned and was very kind and helpful.

Well organised trip and a great tour guide in Roberto.

The tour guide Claire was the best ever.

I have already filled in a review and was very happy with TD but I keep getting requests for another?

Although the holiday feels expensive it actually works out ok as nearly everything is covered once you reach your destination, particularly on an activity based trip with TD Active where a packed lunch is also included.

Travel Dept is the best way to go on a relaxing holiday and not be bothered with trying to arrange tours and where to go. Loved every minute of it.

A wide choice of locations both in Europe and further afield.

Just back from 4 night city break.
Hotel was lovely. Good range of breakfast food. Staff were friendly in reception.
Krakow easy city to navigate __ excellent and great value tram services _ machines at stops and accept card __ Over 70's go free!.
Everywhere in the city accepts card payments.
One mention __ if you want to go to Auschwitz ___ book ahead. We were there over a weekend so tickets were not available for the saturday.
The Salt Mines were fascinating.
Paulina our guide was lovely and friendly and helpful with any queries.
All in all a very nice breakaway with usual good organisation by Travel Department.

I was well looked after by the Travel Department and the guides were very helpful

Hotels , transport , site visits all excellent. Our guide Katarina was well versed on the history of Ancient Greece. We both got a lot out of the trip .

A wonderful holiday in Norway. Our guide Vidor was excellent. He was friendly, helpful, very well organised, with a great sense of humour. The trips on the fjords and trains all went smoothly. The accommodation was lovely and we had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday.

l found it to be a very interesting tour.Tour guide did her best the weather was not good the first few days.The trip to the Trulli houses was particularly nice starting with olive oil and finishing with wine tasting.The hotel was very good clean friendly staff, the food was ok, Breakfast was very good especially on the free days.ln general it was excellent.

Just returned from the Danube Rhapsody River Cruise. The boat, crew and food were excellent. A negative for many people were that the single beds were too small, about 2'6' and also the guided tours were too rushed, not enough time to see things. Other than that the whole experience was most enjoyable, a very slick operation but that's what you expect from Travel Department.

The organised trip to Sicily for a week was excellent. Good hotel, excellent trips, good guides (and bus driver).

Excellent hotels and locations.Expert guides and drivers.Good options to do and take part in.

My daughter and her husband who live in Ireland included us (we live in the USA) to join them in the tour called Undiscovered Italy-Highlights in Puglia at the end of May 2026. We can't say enough about our tour guide Alessandra and the local guides Angele, Domatella and Anna with sightseeing and highlights of the area. Puglia is a beautiful historical place. The local restaurants have delicious dishes and wines and the daily breakfast at the Hotel was five star with Sonia's organization with food and drinks at the buffet. Our hotel was very comfortable and clean with pleasant staff. This is our second trip using the Travel Department but not the last!!!

Location was beautiful and I loved the pool area

Beautiful country, very green not unlike home, very good day trips, excellent hotel facilities.

Guide, while doing here best, had poor English and difficult to understand. Excellent hotel except for its very poor food.

Good organization of trip. Hotel Balzoni in great location overlooking the lake- very good breakfast and
satisfactory dinner options.
