Travelsphere

...seen a small ad for Travelsphere in the press, I sent for their brochure last autumn (2000), and decided to book a cheap coach trip to the Christmas Markets in Germany. There were a number to choose from: Aachen, Cologne and others. We opted for Cologne. The brochure offered trips from £99 half-board, but a supplement of £20 was payable per room if private facilities were required. In the event, it seems that all the people who travelled on the ...
...The traveller is advised by Travelsphere of the collection point, but not of all the pick-ups. Had we known that the coach was to stop in Bolton, we would have opted for it. The coach was of high quality and comfort, and the driver drove from Preston to Dover with appropriate stops - if motorway services can ever be called "appropriate". Pick-ups were made in Preston, Wigan, Bolton, Birmingham, Solihull and Banbury. However, I am sure that this ...

Review of Travelsphere

...on holiday to Australia with Travelsphere last OCt and it was the best holiday ever!!! The cost was £2995 altogether although this did include £500 for a single supplement. This sounds like a lot of money but for what you get its actually really well priced. The hotels were all superb and had the usual emenities along with a few extras in some cases. They were all well located so that when you had free time you could easily pop into the shops or ...
...you make some great friends. Travelsphere actually do holidays specifically for people travelling alone but dont feel that you need to go on one of these because either way you will have a great time. Most tours leave from various palces in the uk so you wont have to travel across the country to get to your flight. The average ages of the travellers are between 25 and 65 but even if you are outside that bracket which i am myself you will meet so ...

Review of Travelsphere

...decided to wait for the Travelsphere brochure before making any final decision. Their catalogue was so inviting that we did not get as far as Canada! We ended up doing a tour of the Southern States of America We flew to Atlanta and then coached to New Orleans staying a few nights en route at hotels in Memphis, Nashville, Chattanooga and Vicksburg. Of course we took excursions to all the places you would expect, when in the home of Rock’n’Roll, Country ...
...we had many stops. Travelsphere really do seem to care about the well being of their clients. They are, also, willing to customise holidays for you but I do not know the cost of these. The brochure holidays are fairly priced and value for money. Booking by telephone is easy and the staff are very helpful. NEXT YEAR, PERHAPS, WE WILL GO TO CANADA AND CRUISE UP THE ALASKAN COAST. ...

...course of your stay. Travelsphere provide a tour manager for the duration of the breaks who will keep you informed of departure times and places to see that are not on the tours. Included in the price is a tour of Vegas which takes you to all the major hotels, a half day tour of Las Angeles taking in Hollywood sights such as the Hollywood bowl and Beverly Hills, and a half day tour of San Francisco where you will cross the Bay Bridge and Golden ...
...Vegas, this is where your Travelsphere tour manager will link up with you. With Vegas as the starting point you will take in Palm Springs, LA, Hollywood, the Pacific coast including the famous 17 mile drive where some of Hollywood’s top stars reside, Santa Barbara, Carmel, Monterey, Solvang (a lovely Swiss style village) and finally San Francisco. There are optional excursions which are considerably cheaper through Travelsphere, for which you will ...

Review of Travelsphere

We have just had the "Holiday from Hell". We did the Blue Danube Explorer & Five Countries. The timetable was never adhered to but worse than that the ship was changed at the last minute & we ended up with "a dirty old tub". Cobwebs & spiders everywhere. The food was inedible a lot of the time. We are now asking for the cost of the holiday to be repaid to us! July 07 ...

Review of Travelsphere

Our first holiday with Travelshere was in 1992 when we did the west coast of USA, we flew out from Manchester to LA and ended up in San Francisco It was the first time for us to go on a coach tour and to visit the states, the hotels were very good even the cheapest of hotels had the basics like tea/coffee hairldryers,some motels even had washing machines and dryers which makes even less clothes to take with you. The driver we had was informative, ...
...was too much trouble, we went to all the places you hear about in the areas that we went to. That was just the start for us, yes we were hooked, since then we have been to The Deep South, Nashville and Memphis ,Parks and Canyons and the latest was China, so if its value for money seeing all the tourist trails i would say go with Travelsphere, the only fault i can find is that they dont do enough holidays flying from Manchester, as if you live in ...
