People say such nice things about us... "The ˜Princess” and I want to thank you for planning and executing an exceptional trip. We both enjoyed every aspect of it. Your upbeat company was a plus." "How can we ever thank you for all your kindnesses - we so loved every minute of our trip - we have a new friend in the UK, probably one of our best." "How can we ever thank you for being such a marvellous shepherd and making our whole trip such a pleasure - and such fun." "If the term ˜excellent” means anything, then that is exactly how I feel about your treatment for both me and my mother". "You are a genius, the way you can work out the most complicated schedules". "We followed your routes and advice almost to the letter and the whole trip worked out great". "Well - it’s over, but will never be forgotten. What wonderful memories of beautiful places, great food, and most of all, fantastic people. Jim, you did a super job. THANKS!" "If you are going to visit England, let Jim Gavin entertain your eyes. His sidetracks were truly adventurous and made the trip all the more wonderful." "A special thanks for yet another delightful tour." "Our entire group had a splendid, wonderful time in Ireland. Bernard (one of our Driver/Guides) is truly a wonderful person, a delightful companion and worth his weight in gold" "Kathleen and Jimmy returned with glowing reports about you, and their wonderful trip. "Sally, Kelly, and I all agree that our trip to England was greatly enhanced by your great guiding and super sense of humour." "Driving off the beaten track with you was an enormous treat. Your knowledge and enthusiasm imbued us with renewed love of England and its history." "In all our travels, we have never enjoyed a driver/guide - humorist - Irish driver more than Jim Gavin. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and a superior driver. They broke the mould when the good Lord made him." "We had a wonderful time (in Ireland) and we thought the route was fantastic. I could easily have done another week." "Just a ˜thank you” for helping make my trip to England more pleasant. Your good humour and super driving made our jaunt through the countryside a joy." "Words simply fail me (believe it or not! Harlan doesn’t!) to adequately express our appreciation of all you did to make our Scotland sojourn such a wonderful experience. I believe you could make a trip over the Arctic tundra fun - and if you go, we’ll come!" "Jim, my dream has always been to see England but without your expertise in guiding us, and your wonderful humor, it wouldn’t have been a perfect first trip. You couldn’t have taken us to better places." "Another marvellous trip." "Thank you once again for making our stay in England so enjoyable."  The professionals say… "Jim Gavin, driver/guide par excellence, - his sunny personality, Irish wit, and in-depth knowledge of his country have been the source of constant praise from returning travellers." "My thanks once again for a wonderful trip around your native land (Ireland) - it is absolutely gorgeous!" "I have just talked with Connie A., to see how their trip went and she said that it was fantastic ¦they loved it and she could not say enough things about what a wonderful job you had done to make it just right for them." "A self-motivated modern day explorer, just back from a 50 day trans-Sahara marathon, shepherding giant juggernaut trucks from Tangier to Kano: - though Jim prefers to think of himself as a consultant specialising in travel." "I would like to thank you for your assistance and support over the last few years. It was always a pleasure working with you as you were always most co-operative and professional." "It was worth every penny to be driven along the beautiful country lanes which I would never have discovered myself." "Jim, I think you did your job well!!! You made us proud." "This is the England that many tourists fail to see." Jim Gavin knows about country pubs a tourist would never find on his own." "All our drivers drove superbly and with British aplomb so that we were completely at ease, even though going down what was to us the wrong side of the road." "If driving on the wrong side of the road fills you with anxiety, or if you are unfamiliar with areas outside London, this service is a new and relatively easy way to enjoy the quiet, natural beauty of the countryside." "Jim, and all of his Driver/Guides we met are eccentrics, though they may not think of themselves that way. Appreciating their characters and tales is the beginning of appreciating the English celebration of eccentricity. Their wit, their outlook, their lives are, to me at least, what makes the rolling English countryside and the landmarks intriguing." |
