"The 2003 tour of England was an excellent tour.  Cheri was a great guide and with our driver Gareth's assistance, went out of their way to take us to places of individual interest.  We were able to visit beautiful villages and see country that is only accessible to small groups.  The accommodations were excellent, especially The Corner House in Cirencester.  The trip was much better than traveling with a large tour group."

"Cheri is knowledgeable and fun to travel with.  I enjoyed every day we were there and hated to leave.  I really want to thank the rest of the group for giving up a little of their time so that I could go to Bath to take my special photo."

"The trip was wonderful!!  What a great experience for my first trip out of the US.  I loved it all, but the Medieval banquet at Warwick Castle was probably my favorite.  Also, having the honor of being among the “first” group of tourists to “ever” tour the Underground Gardens at Dewstow was really outstanding.  Thanks for a great trip.  I’d go again in a heartbeat."

"It was amazing and what a good time I had.  Love those pubs!!  I saw a lot, learned so much and haven’t laughed that much in a long time.  You guys were great."

"We have gone on two MiniBus Britain tours to England with Cheri Thomas and have thoroughly enjoyed both trips.  They do an excellent job of planning the trips so that you can see and visit places that are inaccessible to large groups.  The small B&B lodgings were very good.  She is a wonderful guide and very accommodating to the interests of the group.  We think it’s an excellent way to travel."

"This was my first trip to England and I couldn’t have chosen a better guide or group to go with.  Everyone was helpful and friendly and Cheri’s wit and humor added to the enjoyment.  She’s a great guide and I really enjoyed her trivia.  If you want to know something about a king or queen or the history, just ask her.  Had a great time, thanks!!"

"I have gone on two trips with MiniBus Britain.  I went to Scotland in 2005 and Ireland in 2006.  Both trips were very enjoyable.  They really go out of their way to please their clients. The accommodations, especially in Scotland, were extraordinary.  Definitely not places you’d find as part of a large tour group or on your own.  Cambus O’May in Ballater, Scotland was probably my favorite.  I’m into photography and they went out of their way to take those back roads so I could get the “special” shots.  In Ireland, they made sure that I got a chance to climb Croagh Patrick.  Thanks for two great trips.  Well worth the money.  I’ll go again."

"Had a great time.  Loved those villages, especially Castle Combe.  Thanks for everything."

"Small number of participants allowed for flexible itineraries.  Namely, changes could be made as to which places the group wanted to visit. The number also allowed the group to stay in bed and breakfast type accommodations that were more typical of the region, not hotels.  We were allowed as much time as needed to visit scheduled places and places not on the itinerary.  We were allowed time to do our 'own thing'.  It was the right mixture of group functions and individual time."

"For me it was a dream vacation. I enjoyed the hiking, castles & the beauty of the country. White sandy beaches and climbing the "highest mountain", Croagh Patrick, in Ireland, There wasn't a day I didn't enjoy my trip to Ireland. I had such a good time I didn't want to go home."

- Helen H. - Penryn, Calif.
 
"I liked the relaxed atmosphere of the Gardens and Villages trip.  We visited so many beautiful villages and gardens.  Cheri was very accommodating and provided excellent commentary on the sites we visited.  I really loved that there were several times built in when we could choose what we wanted to do.  They even provided transportation, when some of us chose to visit Winchester one afternoon.  When we did visit sites together we were still allowed the freedom to explore on our own if we wanted to.  The entire trip was a memorable adventure.  I look forward to going on a trip with Cheri again."
