Enjoyed the excursions but did need to be agile. Did not consider hotel to be five star as advertised but location was perfect. Our guide/courier Anthony was first class and the coach drivers were also of a good standard. Things would have run more efficiently but unfortunately delays with Eurostar and Paris traffic made travel rather hectic but appreciate this was out of your control but Anthony got us to the destination .
Wonderful trip though a bit too short. An over night stay in Bordeaux suggested. 1st day far too long and then straight into tour the next day. Rest of holiday a good pace. Many guests visited after reading Labyrinth by Kate Mosse. As she lives in the city, perhaps she could be persuaded to give the group a talk?
Was a wonderful holiday, our tour manager Anthony was absolutely fantastic, Great Rail Journeys have the best person in him. Carcassone was great as were the tours we went on.
Lovely holiday, katy was a great guide. We visited some fabulous places.
Well organised with a great tour guide
Hôtel location and room was amazing - service by some staff was generally poor - breakfast was a shambles and disappointment.
Carcassone well worth visiting, as was Narbonne & chateaux at Lastours. The other days seemed simply made up to fill the time; the visit to Mirepoix was largely a waste of time, the market was no better than markets at home, and there was a limit to what we could purchase. Hotel was very good, tour manager excellent, but too many meals where we were left to our own devices. Very long, tiring travelling days St Pancras to Carcassone & return.
Wonderful….Katie was simply so caring,perceptive,diligent,skilled and such good comp
A very enjoyable tour. Stella our tour guide was very good, friendly, helpful, & proactive in her planning. The day we went to the market could probably be a better itinerary. For example leaving earlier to have more time in the market. And possibly a visit to a local vineyard, instead of the 2hour scenic tour back to our hotel. Hotel, a very nice location, convenient for visits to the Carcassone Castlle & town. Well appointed. The maid service was sometimes hap hazard, ie bottom sheet of bed not always attended to & sometimes bins not emptied. Staff friendly & helpful.
Carcassonne is a lovely place to visit with a beautiful walled citadel, which can be seen from the Hotel du Roi’s excellent location. There is a lot packed into this trip, an extra day might be better, thus allowing more free time.
Lovely location and hotel. Food good and nice size group.
Wonderful holiday, expertly organised.
Super Leader! To be expected, crowded boarding at St Pancreas until we reached our cars and worth first class tickets all the way to Toulouse. Lovely hotel with fantastic views. Good breakfasts each day followed by mostly leisurely starts. Carcassonne the town and castle did not disappoint. I got sick, was well taken care of and Della who lead us to the doctor’s staying with my husband. She kept in contact with us the whole time we were away. Sadly we missed the chateaux, wine tasting, and lunch but I was well enough to enjoy our last evening with new friends dining in the village of Carcassonne.
An excellent tour with a well located hotel, an experienced and professional tour manager and wonderful excursions /places to visit. It was great to travel by train, particularly 1st class, to see the countryside in our way
Great trip. Lovely hotel. Great Tour Manager - Della. Amazing tours. Great breakfast selection. Would have given it 5 stars but set dinner menus at the hotel were not 5 star!
A fabulous experience, well planned, and extremely well led by Della, our amazing tour manager. Great hotel, balanced itinerary, wonderful sites and experiences and two fabulous lunches!
We had a great trip. The hotel was lovely - beautiful view of Carcassonne. We enjoyed all of the trips, they were a nice mix, although we did feel that the Mirepoix trip could have been organised differently. The journey back took over 2 hours, and whilst it was nice to drive through the Pyrenees, we could have made better use of our time. We felt that the holiday was a good mix of organised time and free time. Our tour guide Steve was great. All in all we had a great time and would recommend this holiday.
A great few days with a mixed and interesting programme of activity. An excellent tour guide. The reason I have not chosen 5 stars is the experience of getting on to Eurostar at St Pancras and Paris respectively - admittedly outwith the direct control of Great Rail Travel - was a pain. The system needs a major overhaul!
The trip was excellent with a superb tour manager
Carcasonne was stunning along with the excellent hotel overlooking the river and castle. We were well looked after and tours spot on. The journey to and from unfortunately let the holiday down. Chaotic experiences at both ends of Eurostar along with a 3 hour wait at Gare Montparnasse on way out. Crowds encountered here were remicient of India experiences. The heat did not help.
