Outstanding Tour Manager and supportive office staff
We are always looked after so well. Tour manager is with you from airport until we get back to original airport. All meals and trips are included which means it is easier to know how much money you will need. For a single traveller it gives you a feeling of security at all times which is important
I've been on two One Traveller trips after a friend recommended the first one. Very different experiences. The first was to Oman - they are the only travel company who seem to offer trips here and my friend recommended it. It was a wonderful tour of a very interesting and welcoming country which I would happily return to. Our tour manager was great company and very helpful as were the two wonderful local guides who showed around different parts of the country. The only slight issue was the attempt to make us have a group meal on the last night with a very British menu. Nobody wanted it and we were eventually allowed to stick with the amazing middle eastern food which we had enjoyed for the duration of the trip. My second experience was a Xmas trip to Hamburg - and if this had been the first it would have been my last. It was extortionately expensive - considering the length of the trip probably dearer than Oman - and generally poor standard. Our hotel was very well located but that is all I can say. Very little choice of food and mostly not particularly pleasant. Very mean with the housekeeping - had to ask for an extra towel to dry my hair and they wrote it down that I'd got one! Local guides were all good - but some visits badly timed - arriving just as it got dark. The tour manager was something else - meant well I'm sure but had very unfortunate views about 'foreigners' which were surely not suitable in that job. Quite upsetting really. I did inform OT about all this in the feedback but no response or apology. I'm not sure If I'd go with them again. I did feel out of place to some extent on both trips, being northern and fairly progressive. There were some lovely people but it tended to be cliquey - many knew each other, and very clearly very affluent often with very entitled opinions. There was much talk about how many OT trips everyone had been on - as if it was a club that I wasn't a member of.
Excellent, very well organised trip
I always rejected holidays on cruise ships. The thought of thousands of people onboard filled me with horror. Then I saw the One Traveller link-up with Fred Olsen. I still wasn't sure if it was for me but the 'Northern Lights' cruise interested me and being with the One Traveller group made it more appealing. What was not to like? Chauffeur car to Portsmouth 45 minutes, No airport hassle, two weeks away from February weather, interesting ports of call, dog-sledding etc., etc. So I booked it........and I loved every minute of it. Can't wait to do it again.
Good company, well organised. Good cruise ship, well loked after. Very good meals and activities.
Attention to detail. Great guides. Thoroughly looked after .Oman was amazing .
I have just returned from a Northern Lights Cruise on a ONE Traveller Holiday onboard BOREALIS (Fred-Olsen Line) From Booking the holiday to disembarkation at the end, every event was delivered in a most professional manner. The cruise was a great success due to the ONE Traveller product and a very accomplished ONE Traveller Tour Manager . We saw the Northern Lights too! Thank You ONE "T"
The Danube Christmas cruise was my fourth One Traveller trip and, whilst all were great, this was the most enjoyable. The reason for this probably being a combination of a good mix of companions (maybe 60 is a good number), great venue (the ship), good food, excellent service (the crew) attentive tour manager (Roberto was thoughtful, efficient and an absolute godsend on the return journey).
I went on the Christmas trip to Valencia which was hugely disappointing due to the poor accommodation, dreadful food, badly thought out tours and arguments between other travellers and the tour guide! The hotel was several kilometres away from the city centre and after the first day tour we were left in the centre and told to get our own transport back to the hotel! This meant a long walk to the bus stop, a wait if 20 minutes for a bus and a 30 minute bus ride back to the hotel. The hotel was very basic with a very small dirty pool covered with a plastic roof. The thermostat was broken in the little jacuzzi making it unusable. The food for the evening meal was poor with no choice and I often went to bed hungry as it was inedible. When other travellers tried to complain to the tour rep. It got nasty and there was an awful atmosphere. I could go on with issues from this holiday including the mould and broken bathroom fittings, locked up sauna, nothing to see or do by the hotel which was next to the football stadium! Most disappointing is the poor response I got from One Traveller who don’t seem at all concerned about the problems encountered on this trip. Beware!
I was on the festive Thailand tour and found that the 4 different places we stayed at all had a very different feel each bringing their own special view of every day life. It was also good to experience travel by tuk tuk, rail, back of trucks, speedy long tail boats and by canal around the floating market.
A wonderful holiday on the Danube. Very well organised with a delightful schedule and luxurious surroundings.
Excellent admin and booking arrangements and thank you for the packing cubes. A walking tour was included every morning at the different ports of call. Loved seeing Vienna at Christmas. My cabin on the ship was very comfortable. It was good to have a flight from Manchester.
Well organised trip with an incredible tour director, nice hotel & great places visited
The Mozart concert was the highlight. To see Austria in the Christmas season was a pleasure. We had an experienced guide who made the trip really interesting.
Do not use this company. They do not deliver what they advertise. As a result I looked elsewhere. I have just returned from a very successful trip with Titan and would suggest you look at this company instead. My dispute with One Traveller has not been resolved since last March and the company have held £500 of my money despite defaulting on their own Terms and Conditions. Do not even consider travelling with this company. They have no customer care.
Lovely Christmas break in Windsor - would certainly go back there if the holiday is offered again.
Great Xmas trip. Our tour manager was 1st class. Many thanks Ian G. Will hope to book again.
