The Ramsdens | England & Ireland | July, 2024

Early in 2024, Jay reached out to us at Crystal Travel & Tours, keen to plan the perfect getaway for his family. With Ann’s expertise and attention to detail, they collaborated to create a seamless week-long adventure across England and Ireland. From the bustling streets of Dublin to the historic landmarks of London, every detail was thoughtfully curated to ensure an unforgettable journey. During their adventure, the family experienced the best of both England and Ireland. This wasn’t limited to sight-seeing, as the group even indulged in a hands-on cookery school, where they learned the art of making traditional Irish brown soda bread!

How would you rate your trip?

Who was your travel expert?

Ann

How were your accommodations?

Great – Both the Clermont and Staunton’s were centrally located allowing us to easily walk to all the sites we wanted to visit. At Staunton’s we had one room on the bottom floor, below ground level, and it was rather musty but other than that the accomodations were great.

Did everything go smoothly with your transportation?

Yes – All of our drivers and guides were early, personalable, and very knowledgeable.

What tours, attractions, or activities did you particularly enjoy?

We enjoyed them all. In particular, we appreciated Ann providing us with a list of options from which we could choose which made it a specially curated trip for us.

What was your favorite part of the trip?

Visiting the Village of Ramsden, the Perfect Pint Tour, and baking with Catherine Fulvio were all highlights.

Would you travel with us again? 

Yes!

How can we improve for next time?

Nothing! We loved working with Ann — the entire process was seamless.
