What travelers are saying

"I had to write this review when I saw the only review on here was so mediocre. We went earlier this year on an art tour of Florence. It was excellent, from booking to getting off the plane back in England. The hq staff, the tour guide and the expert were knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The tour was brilliantly designed so we saw a great deal in a city of masterpieces, but never felt overwhelmed. The hotel was excellent. The meals were very good. It is expensive, but taking into account the quality of the hotel and the expertise of both the Martin Randall staff and the art historian it really is good value. The whole trip was good fun, enlightening and ran like clockwork. Nobody needs to go on a luxury tour accompanied by an academic - you could stay in a youth hostel and read a tour guide and see the same sights for a tenth of the price. But if you have the inclination and means then Martin Randall is an excellent choice. We have since booked another tour for next year, and I have my sights on two more."

"We booked in February via TripMasters for a trip to Italy in June. Everything was confirmed in February, after our payment. However, in May, right before our trip, we were told that our hotel in Venice had become unavailable. This is from the email sent by TripMasters : "We were just informed that Sant`Antonin Hotel will not be able to honor our reservation that is why our vendor is offering the following alternative properties that is a free upgrade to 4 stars Hotel: 1st Option: Novotel Venezia Mestre Castellana - Upgrade to 4**** Via Alfredo Ceccherini 21, Mestre, VE, 30174, ITA Room type: Family Room, 1 Double Bed with Sofa bed Bedding type: 1 Double Bed and 1 Double Sofa Bed 2nd Option: Hotel Mercure Venezia Marghera - Upgrade to 4**** Via Malamocco 14, Mestre, VE, 30175, ITA Room type: Starndar, Multiple Beds 2 Twin Beds and 1 Double Sofa Bed Note that these rooms are not booked yet. We need your approval. Please let us know if you accept, or if you need further information do not hesitate to contact us." Neither hotel has the traditional style we were looking for, so we declined and scrambled to find among the much more limited inventory than when we booked our trip in February an acceptable alternative. It's only until we finished our trip and got to know the area better did we realize how far away the two alternative options TripMasters are from Venice (>1 hour each way to Venice via public transportation) and how much cheaper they are compared with our original choice (right in the center of Venice and has stellar reviews). We just felt lucky that we didn't take the bait and fell into their trap. Otherwise, our trip would have been ruined. It's quite blatant when they had the gut to mention this in their email: "a free upgrade to 4 stars Hotel" without disclosing the much different location of the two alternatives. We dislike being treated so dishonestly and will never use them again."

What travelers are saying

"I was very excited to support a Canadian company, but unfortunately, this trip was anything but blissful. The tour guide was unprofessional, incompetent, and inappropriate. He was reported in the middle of the trip because of how vulgar he was being with the girls on the tour. Guided tours are supposed to be a haven for young, solo travelers and, unfortunately, this tour was the nightmarish opposite. If you plan on booking a trip with this company, please dig into who your guide will be, how many trips they have done, and what kind of reviews they have had. Additionally, the accommodations, activities, and transportation included in this trip cost a sliver of what I paid. I completely understand the additional cost of paying the full-time guides, and the price of convenience that comes from a trip being planned for you, but unfortunately, I did not get my money’s worth with LBW. Following my friends and my dissatisfaction with the tour and the inappropriate guide, LBW’s customer support team was unfortunately slow to respond, disorganized, and inconsistent with their suggested solutions. Please, save your money, and book with another company."

"As first time travellers we were completely put at ease by booking with Euroventure. We chose to do the 3 week 'Whole Hog' where we visited 10 cities, and all of our queries were answered by Euroventure before the trip and during the trip both quickly and efficiently. The fact that a travel pack was sent to us made the trip more enjoyable and less stressful as everything was sorted before we left - we had the most amazing time!! I would highly recommend Interrailing Europe and booking through Euroventure as a stress free way of enjoying an incredible journey!!"

What travelers are saying

"I recently took the Best of Australia and New Zealand tour...added on Fiji and a day in Auckland...with Discovery Nomads. During the booking process they were attentive and helpful. However, the nightmare began after paying for the tour! They told us we would receive our itinerary 10 to 20 days before our trip. It was sent 4 days before departure. We booked a tour for the trans alpine train from Christchurch to Queensland which we were told after the fact, that it did not exist. Furthermore, they failed to make a transfer reservation from the airport to our hotel in Christchurch. It took a week of constant sending of emails to get credit. They never answered them! Credit was finally issued almost 25 days later. The nightmare continues...we had to call each shuttle ride to confirm as their confirmation numbers were wrong and the local company could never find our reservations. So now add the cost of all the phone calls! Furthermore, when we reached out to Discover Nomads to help us while traveling, they NEVER answered their phone or a request for refund by email. We were completely ignored and left on our own. The only saving grace was we were traveling in English speaking countries. Can you imagine this happening to you in a country that doesn't speak English? Nightmare!!!!! And no assist from this horrible company. The only communication from them was for flight delays which we found out first by checking into the airport and one response asking for how much I paid for my transfer and proof of payment. I explained that it was all electronic and requested a refund of my original payment...heard nothing again from them until seven days later they sent an email stating that a meeting point had changed. So they had my email, just refused to deal with refunds or help. In addition, they had us waiting 15 hours for a hotel room in two flights. We were not allowed to stay in hotel lobby for so long and we arrived at 1:00am. We ended up paying for an early check in. Also, all internal flights were booked with 7.5 kg cabin luggage only. We had to pay baggage fees of $45 per bag. The costs of this trip were way higher then we anticipated. We had quotes for private tours just $2,000 higher...we should have booked that as we probably spent close to that amount in other fees!! TAKE MY WARNING...DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!"

England Tour Selection Trips

  • There are numerous accents in England and they vary tremendously by region, and sometimes town. Some are easier to understand than others, but people are generally friendly and don't mind repeating themselves if you ask nicely. 
  • The English Countryside is famous for its beauty, and it’s well worth reserving a day to spend driving through.
  • London is one of the best walking cities around - so pack comfortable shoes! 
  • English food gets a bad rap, but if you hunt around there are some gems to be found. From delicious pub fare like the classic fish and chips to more exotic Indian and Pakistani food.
  • Be prepared for damp and rainy weather! The sun doesn’t always like to come out in England, or the wider United Kingdom for that matter, so be sure to pack accordingly.

Best time to travel to England

  • June-September, Summer, for the best weather
  • March-May, Spring, & September-October, Fall, for fewer crowds and moderate weather
  • November-March, Winter, for the fewest crowds

Summer is the peak season in England as most of the tourists plan their England tours from June to September. The days are long, and the weather is warm compared to the rest of the year. However, due to being a high tourist time, you will find every place crowded with people. You will also experience high rates for everything, whether it is accommodation or travel costs.

You can avoid the crowds a little by not going for public transport and renting a car instead. One special thing about summer is the various music and theatre festival going on throughout the season. Get into one of these if you find a chance, and have the real essence of the English culture.

The second most favorite time to travel to London is during spring and autumn. The weather becomes moderate during these times, i.e., March to May and September and October. Hit the weather sweet spot of the region while discovering the fascinating beauty of the royal parks and blossoming gardens.

Experience the beauty of spring flowers while enjoying the warm and usually dry days. And if you are visiting during fall, you will have the privilege to have the beautiful sight of the autumn leaves with their changing hues, making the surroundings more calm and soothing. The earlier you go in spring, the smaller crowds you will experience. But to have low crowds in autumn, you need to go by the latter half of October.

The cheapest time for England tours is between November to March, except for the Christmas holidays. You can find a fair discounted deal for air travel and accommodation, especially. Though various attractions like mountain areas, especially in the north, are closed during the winter due to snow and cold, the main cities are open completely.

This might be the coldest time of the year but has the minimum crowds, and you can enjoy some of the best opera, theater, ballet, and classical music offers and have a closer view of the English life. Arrive after the Christmas holidays and get the chance to avail post-Christmas sales offering fashion clothing, handicrafts, woolens, crystal, silver, and much more at the lowest prices. If you don't mind getting wrapped up in various layers of clothes, then winter can be a good time for budget travelers.

If you are planning to travel to England, you should always be prepared for the rain. Many people see it as a drawback and afraid that it can ruin their trip. But all you need is an umbrella or a raincoat to avoid your trip getting ruined.

English Weather

England has a relatively temperate climate and doesn't really have temperature extremes in winter or summer. However, it has a reputation for having grey misty days and drizzly weather round the year. So be ready for unexpected rain with an umbrella or raincoat during your England travel.

The notoriously unpredictable weather in the country is full of surprises for you. You might get a sharp, sunny, crispy day in cold winter, or can have a chilly rainy afternoon in mid-June. The temperature rarely goes below 2°C, even when winter is at its full bloom, or rise above 26°C during summer.

Do I Need a Visa for England?

England has a different visa policy for different countries. For most of the countries' citizens, it is compulsory to get a before landing on the England soil, even for tourism purposes. However, if you are US, Canadian, Australian, Swiss, EU, or EEA citizen, you do not require a visa and only need to show a valid passport to enter England for a stay of 6 months or less.

For the rest of the countries, it is required to apply for a visa before flying to England. You can check your visa requirement fromhttps://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa, where you put in your information, and you know whether or not you need a visa from your country.
