A SELECTION OF
TESTIMONIALS
I am writing to thank your driver for all his help during our Bournemouth
weekend.
Everyone had a good time. As usual he was a credit to your company.
He worked hard and was very attentive to all of our needs. He made
a big impression on everyone and they have requested that he drives
us on any other trips we make. We are looking at a few and will
contact you with reference to prices for coach and Ray as driver, which
as far as our groups is concerned comes as a package.
Thanks to everyone concerned for all of your help, it contributed
to making the trip go without a hitch, especially Ray.
Yours sincerely
George.
Dear Sir
I am writing to tell you how pleased I was to work with your drivers during the February half term ski trip to Kitzbuhel.
Below is an extract from a report to teh tour company about the trip:
Coach drivers
Absolutely brilliant! Your drivers could not
have been more helpful if they had tried! The coach was cleaned
out over and above what was necessary – it was always completely
spotless inside and out all week. They worked out a really good
system for efficient loading and unloading of skis which saved lots
of time. They were completely amenable about drop-offs and pick-ups
and excellent with the students. Both were quite ill later in the
week but neither complained nor made this obvious in front of the
teachers and students. They were great company, had a great sense
of humour and it was a pleasure working and socialising with them
– I would work with them again any time!
I have worked with a lot of drivers both with
ski companies and your drivers are definitely two of the best! They proved
an interesting contrast to two drivers with another ski company
who spent the entire week moaning about absolutely everything –
no wonder they hardly saw their ski rep! The contribution of the
coach drivers can make all the difference as to whether or not a
ski trip is successful; I am sure that the party leader, staff and
students of Queen Elizabeth Boys School were as happy as I was with
your drivers!
I hope to see them again some time; in the meantime, I am sure
that you will be able to convey my thanks to them and to wish them
all the best.
Yours faithfully
LM
PS Nice coach too!
On Sunday evening we arrived back from a lovely weekend away
in Bournemouth which was organised by George Richards.
The hotel and food were lovely but I wanted to tell you how we
felt about your driver. He was very courteous, pleasant and helpful
but above all he got us there and back safely and had to contend
with some very bad weather conditions. He was a very good driver
and we felt very safe with him. I am a very nervous passenger and
have been on other coach trips and felt very uncomfortable under
normal circumstances but he handled the coach very well and I felt
safe with him. He drove the coach with great care and attention
whilst coping with gale force winds, hail, torrential rain and even
bright sun. I certainly would not have liked to do it. He read the
road very well and was courteous to other drivers. In short WELL
DONE Ray all the very best to you. We hope to see you driving us again
sometime. You’re the best driver we have had.
I hope you pass on our thoughts and feeling to him.
Dear Sirs
I am writing to thank you for the splendid organisation of our
holiday to Venice, Florence and Rome on 24th April this year.
We had a wonderful time, with completely hassle free travel. The
drivers, together with our Travel Director, were not
only exceedingly competent but charming and most attentive to all
their passengers’ comfort. My mother, who is 84 going on 44
was especially well looked after. They were also extremely knowledgeable
regarding the different areas through which we drove and were able
to point out many interesting places or facts as we passed by, thereby
making the journey even more fascinating. The excursions were excellently
planned to give the optimum time at each destination and ensure
that in the short time available we were able to see all those places
of interest we most wanted to visit. It was a lovely experience
and one we will all remember for a long time.
I am also writing to Newmarket so that they are aware of the splendid
work done by your company.
Many thanks again to all concerned.
Yours faithfully
Gerald, Vicki and Billie.
Dear Mr Reay
On behalf of our Association, I would like to thank all those at
Reay’s who helped make our recent trip to central France so
successful. This was our third biennial visit and the transport
was in a different league to the previous two journeys.
I am sure it was a nuisance having to take out some seats and respace
the rest, but combined with the Bova coach’s comfort it did
make a huge difference – especially for the many tall people
on the trip. Last time I was in severe discomfort by Preston on
the outward journey!.
All being well, I hope we can use your company again in two year’s
time.
Yours sincerely
Stephen.
We wish to bring to your attention our observations regarding
the “Coach & Cruise” to Portugal on 29th June.
… The hotel location and the lack of any “holiday entertainment”
available to guests was a cause of concern in so much as the coach
drivers took it on themselves to organise bingo evenings. The drivers
also bore the blunt of complaints as there were no representatives
available, this was unfair to them but they conducted
themselves with dignity.
The drivers of Reays Coaches, Wigton, Cumbria made the
holiday a success with their professionalism and attitude and we
would be grateful if you could pass these comments to Reays Coaches
and take our comments as constructive for future tours.
Yours faithfully
Lionel.
Dear Sir
My family and I have just returned from a 10 day coach trip to
Austria with Consort Travel.
I am writing to say how much we enjoyed ourselves. We found the
Reays coach to be most comfortable. More important though were the
drivers, not only were they first rate drivers but they
were excellent company, fun and totally professional.
As I am sure you are aware, the quality of drivers makes so much
difference to a holiday (we saw some at the other end of the scale
too!) and they really were the “icing on the cake”.
People nowadays are too quick to criticise (sadly that is all too
poignant after the recent accident in Salzburg) but I feel it is
important that you know how much we valued their help, friendship
and service.
With gratitude.
Yours faithfully
Peter.
Dear Sirs
I have just returned from a two day trip with Destinations to London
and Olympia.
I would like to compliment you on your driver He is a credit
both to you and himself. From the minute we got on the coach his helpful and cheery manner was a joy. His skilful and safe
driving was excellent in this day and age of difficult driving.
His knowledge of London was superb, better than the tour manager
who admitted she had not been to London very often. He even told
us which tubes to get to the attractions we wanted to go to, and
he was right in every case.
Many thanks again for a wonderful weekend and many thanks to your driver
not only for driving but his excellent “special hot chocolate”.
Yours
Mr B G
