  • 66 & Buddy! reviewer 1
    · January 5th, 2020
    I've been to a lot of places in the South with Travelling Time and always had a great time so the chance to visit Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico with them was a "no brainer" for me. Three U.S. States, Route 66 and Buddy Holly, what's not to like? As always the group bonded from day one due to Lynda's ability to make an organised tour feel like a trip with friends. I'm always amazed at how much Travelling Time manage to include for the price on their tours and this one is no different. I won't spoil it by listing everything but you get what's in the itinerary and so much more, fantastic! You won't believe how much there is to see and do in this part of the States until you go, very highly recommended and this won't be my last TT tour.

    Had the most wonderful time on this tour. Experienced cities and towns that we will never see again in West Texas and on Route 66 - Wonderful! The whole Buddy Holly Experience was great too... Even although he had such a short life, his music will live on forever!
