We hope our guides use storytelling and music to create a wonderful atmosphere on tour and it's important to strike the right balance. We're sorry we didn't get it quite right on this tour.

I joined the 5 days Devon and Cornwall tour in June 2023, first time with Rabbie's. It was an exceptional experience for many reasons. In just five days we got to see many places, travelling in a clean safe mini bus and receiving lots of information and tips. The b&b and hotel stays were also very pleasant and went beyond expectations. The driver Christo was very professional and friendly and always wore a broad smile spreading positive energy during the whole trip; he went the extra mile to ensure that the experience exceeded expectations. He delivered loads of information and assisted people in case of any need. He also drove skillfully on narrow streets and always made us feel safe. The only note is that this trip is more of an overview of the area, and won't allow time to indulge or to visit in detail, therefore people expecting a relaxing vacation may want to opt for a different experience, but I highly recommend this tour for anyone willing to explore. I hope that Rabbie's will develop also a tour in Cornwall focused on gardens and wildlife in the future (e.g. Cornish Seal Sanctuary, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, etc.).

Bus was clean and not to old. Charching points available in every seat (USB-A only!) Would liked to have spent less time in Exeter and more time in the West (St. Ives).

We had hoped to do the 7 day tour, but took this one as the other was not available. We covered a lot of territory in a short period of time. The itinerary was well thought out and we enjoyed the vast majority of stops. Some accommodations were better than others. Our driver/tour guide was professional and helpful. We enjoyed his commentary.

The itinerary is well designed, the coach was comfortable and most of all the driver guide Christo was brilliant. I would like the tour to span over 6 days. Love it anyway.

I took the Devon and Cornwall tour with Rabbie's. As someone who lives in London, I wanted an efficient way to explore South West England and this tour provided exactly that. It was particularly good because we were travelling through a minibus which was able to take us to more places which a traditional coach could not. Our tour guide John was very friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. I learned a lot about the region's history through him. He also showed us lots of hidden gems that I had not known despite living in the UK. Overall, this tour was great value for money and John was an absolute delight to travel with. I entered the tour as a solo traveller but finished the tour with lots of lovely memories and friends. I look forward to returning to Rabbie's for another tour in the future.

What a great tour! The stops were great and the countryside is beautiful. John, our guide, was fantastic! He provided so many extra touches, like maps and restaurant recommendations at the beginning of every day. He even came to dinner with the group on the last night. I have been on 3 other Rabbie's tours and none of the other guides went the extra mile like John. The biggest issue for us on this tour was the B&Bs chosen by Rabbie's. On my previous tours, the B&Bs picked by Rabbie's were homey and great value for money. However, on this trip, the B&Bs chosen (Townhouse B&B in Exeter and Poltair Guest House in Falmouth) were tired, needed renovation, and needed improvement on their breakfasts. The Townhouse B&B is still serving the cold 'covid breakfast.' When on vacation in the UK, I expect to get a hearty, cooked breakfast... not the same yogurt and pastries I get at home. A covid breakfast 3 years post covid just seems lazy. The Poltair Guest House needs some renovation... there were water damage stains on the doors, walls, and ceiling. The breakfast quality was not great either.
