Umfulana is fantastic. We loved our trip through France. The B&B's were so well chosen. Each one so different and special. All located off the beaten tracks where you experience France in a more personal manner. All the inns chosen had fantastic hosts who were more than willing to help us in every way. I would say many of our hosts were better than 5 star concierge.
Martin is so professional and efficient. He answered all our questions so quickly and arranged eveything for us perfectly. We really appreciate his patience and all his effort in helping us with all the small details. The detail driving routes and excursion suggestions really helped.
Thank you Martin and the whole Umfulana Team for making our trip to France so very very memorable and special. You guys are truly excellent!! I will definitely recommend Umfulana to all my friends.

We had a GREAT vacation covering 7 cities/towns in France & Switzerland. The locations you selected for all the Bed & Breakfast facilities were excellent. We made quite a fw new friends, especially in France and look forward to a future visit.
The only change we made, was an upgrade to the rental car, since the vehicle you included was substantially smaller than the vehicles we usually operate back home.
To sum up the trip, it met our complete satisfaction, and we will certainly call on you the next time we vacation in an area in which you provide service. We'll continue to recommend your service to our friends & associates.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Jerry,
We have been home from our trip to France and Germany now for two weeks and are still talking about it. It was the best ever, thanks to your wonderful B&B bookings. They were all different, but brilliant in their own way. We loved them all! Our hosts at Guerande and Crepon stand out as exceptional. We would never have found such places on our own without a lot of research, so we're singing the praises of Umfulana to all and sundry! Perhaps our favourite day was Wuppertal/Cologne. Jim knew about Schloss Burg and wanted to revisit it after 50+ years! It was a crisp but sunny morning with the trees just showing their autumn colours. The castle was really interesting. Then we drove to Wuppertal, his old hometown and after finding the place he used to live and his old school, we had a ride on the Schwebebahn – Brilliant. And then Cologne. We stopped as per your instructions right in front of the hotel and were immediately taken care of by the attentive staff who whisked us and our luggage into the reception area. They apologized that our room was not ready, but not to worry, they upgraded us to a suite! Wow! Two wonderfully furnished rooms with adjoining bathroom and dressing room looking right out onto the Dom! What a view! And then we climbed the 509 steps up the Dom tower. I felt very proud of myself and was rewarded with fine views in every direction. We decided to splurge and eat at the hotel's restaurant that evening. Food had been very good all through France and the first few days in Germany, but this meal was exceptional. And the service was also excellent.
We look forward to arranging our next European holiday with you.
Best regards,
Margaret and Jim Darley

France Tour: Robert and Sandi Scott
Thanks to Jerry's careful planning our tour from Paris to Nice was a splendid success. All our accommodation was comfortable and pleasant. My favourite although hard to choose was the B&B in Tournus. Josi in Venesque was a wonderful hostess, and one of the best breakfasts we had surprisingly was at our one night stay in Nice. Driving was a pleasure in our hired Polo but one must have a good GPS as we did. Some of the provided stats for accommodation were a little out! but close as dam it!
Can highly recommend Umfulana and we will definitely being using their services in future. Well done, excellent job.
