Customer Reviews
- Hope· July 10th, 2025Carla our guide made all the difference. Local, passionate, knowledgeable and fun!Show more
- Philip· February 10th, 2023i guess Tourradar acts a travel agent for many operators. This does lead to a slight disjointing of the booking experience, but they did pick some good tours to promote. As to the trip itself, put together by local Madeira tour operator MB Travel, and tied together by Headwater Travel UK. 'Marvels of Madeira' gave a good cross section of the walking routes on the Island. Pick ups and taxis were all smoothly present when needed. The Hotel stays were well chosen to give a great, peaceful and comfortable stays, if rather grander than needed. Being set on Half board meant no worries about extra spends - only the bar bill to surmount. As this was a self guided tour, the initial briefing was important and well conducted. My only niggles were the ancillary services. Tourradars travel insurance deals were not flexible enough to take on a peronally arranged extension to my stay, and the flight agency (Kiwi.com) had a hefty booking mark up. Otherwise, a great Walking holiday. PhilipShow more
- Jan· August 2nd, 2025Quark was amazing! Almost every aspect of the Quark team was spectacular. The post disembarkation needs some work with better coordination at the Nuuk airport & the final night’s included hotel stay. Working with TourRadar was the worst international experience I’ve ever had. The lack of timely communication, the seeming lying by omission or avoidance made for a rough beginning to the start of my Quark experience. The Quark team was very responsive to my concerns & remedied the holes TourRadar’s lacking created in my expedition experience.Show more

Asked on August 31st, 2024I am considering this trip and will pay the single supplement to have my own room but want to check if those single supplement rooms are really tiny rooms with twin beds or just regular double room. Could you please advise.

Traveler•Written September 2024I had a bad experience before. In Europe, they sometimes have these single rooms which are like dorm rooms with twin beds. I just cannot handle being stuck in a dorm room at this stage in my life.
