The itinerary consultations are SO WORTH IT! I research everything and consider myself a dedicated planner, and the consultation with Tracy and Doug was invaluable. You will not regret it – it truly is a personalized concierge service.
Kathryn – Chicago, USA
We so appreciated Tracy and Doug’s thoughtful advice and are so glad we signed up for a travel consultation before our big trip! They know the UK so well and offered us such valuable recommendations that helped us refine our itinerary. We were grateful for their input on sites to prioritize, given our family’s interests and priorities, as well as their knowledgeable suggestions on train travel. We felt confident about our plans due to their support and guidance – and had a wonderful vacation!
Susan – USA
“Tracy and Doug were very helpful in answering my questions about traveling in the UK. They took time to find out what my interests were and made suggestions to visit things that were not even on my radar.
If anyone has questions about traveling by train specifically, you will not find anyone or any site on the web more knowledgeable than Doug.
Between their UK Traveling website and FB page there is a wealth of knowledge available.
For anyone traveling to the UK for the first time, the addition of their consultation service was a game-changer for me. All the loose ends and uncertainties were wrapped up with our 45-minute conversation.
I really enjoyed the follow-up PDF that included everything we discussed in our zoom meeting including links to the websites for the points of interest we talked about and the website I needed to book my train travel from London to Edinburgh.”Lori – Ohio, USA
I wouldn’t nearly have the amazing itinerary I’ve planned without these resources. When planning, you want to do everything and go everywhere, and there are just too many options! Hearing others experiences on the podcast, and learning from seasoned travelers like Tracy and Doug helped me focus
Lindsay – USA
You MUST book a consult with Tracy & Doug if you are going to the UK. Their guidance and recommendations were amazing and I wouldn’t have known about half the things they recommended we do. Plus, knowing they really vet their partners gave us peace of mind that we would have a great experience and we did. Let them help you!
