Five stars for Celebrated Experiences & our "no-drive" UK vacation to London, Wales, and Scotland…read more The "cookie-cutter" Loch Ness tour originally set up by Andare can't compare to our Celebrated Experiences driver's substitution, touring Dornoch Cathedral & Dunrobin Castle and seeing a live falconry show. One star for Andare's other transportation! They wanted us to pay $570 for a 12-mile ride from Bangor Rail to the hotel, almost 6X a Snowdonia taxi ride. Months in advance, we requested a minimum of 20 mins. between train transfers due to mobility issues. Andare ignored this request, purchasing non-refundable tickets with only a ten-minute window. Ten minutes is not sufficient for a safe transfer with luggage! One star for Andare's attention to detail. Andare failed to buy advance tickets for 4 sites on our planned itinerary; we had to rush and buy them. Keep in mind, Andare partners with Virtuoso. We were asked to complete the survey about our trip which we did. Virtuoso posted it. Andare responded and admitted they fell short. Then, they removed the posting and changed it to one implying this was the first they had heard of our concerns. Now, we can see no posted response. Andare was notified of our requests in the pre-planning process, during the process, and when their finalized itinerary was shared with us. We brought up our concerns multiple times during phone conversations and by email. This review should not come as any surprise to Andare. Our requests occurred months before our trip departure and were not honored. The Celticos and Segontium Searchers Wales tour we set up gets 5 stars. They performed a wonderful personalized genealogical tour, being professional and responsive to our needs/desires. What a contrast to Andare!

We had some issues with 2 tours that we booked through Ride the Wave and Jim was fast to respond and assist. One of the tours we ended up having to cancel due to scheduling issues. I reached out to Jim to let him know and he worked on getting the refund process started right away and I received a confirmation email from the tour vendor the same day. We're now just waiting for it to get credited back to our card. The peace of mind of our trip being taken care of by professionals is invaluable. I can't recommend enough going through a travel agency for big trips because you just never know what could happen. Ride the Wave is as good as they come and I'm looking forward to using their services again for our next big trip!
