What people love about touring UK And Great Britain solo
- Play & Pause: Britain & Ireland
Elise Tait was a fantastic tour guide! She made it her mission to make sure that everyone on the tour had a great time and that they were able to visit all the sites that they so desired. I would go on another tour if Elise was the tour guide :) I think that it was her calling in life to become a tour guide

I loved the tour and the history stories
- Best of UK & Ireland
The tour went on very smoothly as according to the itinerary. There are even some surprises with additional interesting stopover in Caernarfon and extra dinner provided in Dublin. Meals and accommodation provided are very good for the value of the tour fare paid. Strongly recommended for would-be travelers.

Rooms come with private bathrooms and expected modern amenities.
How do guided tours handle dining arrangements for solo travelers?
Tour packages usually cover daily breakfasts and several shared dinners which naturally bring the group together. Examples include group meals at Glasgow's historic Mharsanta restaurant or evening music sessions in Killarney's pubs.

When meals aren't included guides can suggest restaurants suited for solo dining or help coordinate group outings.
