Germany Tour: Don Allen Price
Cobham, Surrey, United Kingdom |
| |
My family enjoyed a very nice, relaxing trip through southern Germany and Austria. The arrangements booked through Umfulana were executed perfectly. Definitely an easy way to book a trip. The suggested itinerary allowed us to see beautiful scenery and historic locations. Just what we wanted.
Regarding the accommodations, the Falkenstein hotel was our favorite. Great views and charming hosts plus good food in the restaurant.
The hotel in Salzburg was in a very convenient and picturesque location. We were happy to be based in the old town.
Our hotel in Innsbruck was unfortunately having refurbishments done while we were there, so we did not get to experience the full effect of staying in such a historic place. The smell of solvents to replace carpets, plastic sheeting and walking through a constructions zone within the hotel did not lend themselves to a peaceful environment. However, the host was very helpful and gave us free parking to help offset the problems caused by the construction. The rooms were adequate and the breakfast was very nice.
We were pleased with our trip and would recommend Umfulana tours to our friends. |

Australia Tour: Lena Kvist
Västra Frölunda, Sweden |
| |
Hi there,
We had a wonderful time (as always).
The B&B in Melbourne was excellent and Trevor I think his name is, introduced us to the art of going on public transportation and made us feel at home. A very nice person and simply excellent. Could not have been better.
The Retreat in Apollo Bay was nice and beautifully situated and we got very good suggestions of what to see. The outdoor spa and pool did not work,however, and when I pointed out that the VCR (video) apperently needed to be fixed (cleaning of the head), Bill knew that it was out of touch (needed to have a service or replacement.) And when that was not a surprise to him, I kind of wonder how long the pool and spa had been out of order.....???
It was a disappointment that the spa did not work, because it was really cold and we would have enjoyed that.
The roaring fire in the living room was nice and we enjoyed our stay, anyway.
Port Fairy: The Hotel was very nice indeed and Port Fairy a very nice place to stay.
Pomonal, Grampians: Very nice and hospitable. Enjoyed Mrs. Welch's cooking. Very good and nice hosts. Helped us to wash some clothes, too.
Robe: Very pleasant in the middle of town and we realy enjoyed it.
Barossa Valley: Stonewell Cottages, Tanunda. Simply a lovely place and the cottage had everything. You could not ask for more!!
Kangaroo Island: Very nice and hospitable. Nice wilderness tour and the car and everything worked fine. The dirt roads of the island are terrible. A 4-WD (four wheel drive) type Land Rover would be preferable, but the man from Hertz warned us and we drove slowly and stayed on the paved roads as much as possible. We also went with Peter and saw the penguins in Kingscote. He was a superb guide. [...]
Potts Point, Sydney. Very nice and central. Excellent service.
Yes, that's it!! And up here on the fjord we have -2 degrees and a mild snowfall and the mountains are all covered with snow!!
Greetings from Henry and Nordfjordeid |

France Tour: Richard Quackenbush
Oregon City, Oregon, United States |
| |
| The accommodations on our trip were exceptional. We had a small hotel by the Louvre for our Paris part of the trip. This location was very close to where we picked up our car for the trip south to Nice. The travel days were a reasonable distance and staying two days at each location made the trip leisurely and allowed us to explore the countryside. Venasque and Moustiere were our favorite towns on the trip. The itinerary e-mailed to us was very thorough and we referred to it often. I highly recommend Umfulana for their responsiveness and knowlege to put together a wonderful trip that we will remember for a long time. |
