We hope to welcome you on another tour in the future.
Before booking this tour with TCE, I researched several other tour companies offering similar subject matter. More than once, I was told that the level of experience TCE advertised simply would not...

Thank you for your wonderful review. We're delighted you found the tour to be such a memorable experience, and that Dr Alasdair Richardson's knowledge and insight helped bring this important history to life. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you on another tour in the future.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback on your recent Napoleon in Italy tour. We are sorry to hear that aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you setting out your concerns so clearly.
We are pleased that you found John Gill knowledgeable, engaging and professional, and we are glad that his guiding was a positive part of the experience.
We do acknowledge your concerns regarding the coach and onboard facilities. This was not in line with the standards we expect from suppliers used on our tours, and we were in contact with the coach company during the tour about the situation. We have also followed this up with them since.
Regarding the amount of time spent travelling, the tour was designed to follow the 1796–97 campaign in chronological order as closely as possible. Given the geography of the campaign, this inevitably involved covering a considerable amount of ground by coach.
This tour was advertised as a Level 2 tour, our standard tour type, which can involve walking along country tracks and up slopes to reach vantage points, with distances of up to a few miles a day and occasionally up to six miles. From your comments, one of our Level 3 tours may have been more suited to the more walking-focused battlefield experience you were looking for, such as Walking Waterloo or Walking Austerlitz.

We also note your comments regarding the age profile of the group. The average age of our clients is over 50, and we try to make this apparent through the group photographs and presentation of our tours on the website.
With regard to the stop near the Lidl car park, this is not our normal choice of location for discussing a battlefield, and we understand why you found the setting disappointing. We can only assume the guide considered it the most suitable and/or safest available place to stop at that point in the itinerary.
On the hotel arrangements, we do reserve the right to alter hotel locations where necessary. In this instance, the move from Turin to Bra was made in what we believed to be the best interests of the group and the logistics of the tour. We also felt the historic character of the hotel in Bra was in keeping with the nature of the tour.
We are also sorry to hear that the dining arrangements did not always meet your expectations. We do our best to ensure that notified dietary requirements are communicated clearly to hotels and restaurants, and we will review this carefully.
Thank you again for your feedback. We are sorry that the tour was not the experience you had hoped for, and we will take your comments into account when reviewing this itinerary.
Service was outstanding, all our needs were met. My one complaint concerns the dining experience at our hotel. It was poor and the provided breakfasts were even worse.
The office staff were always very helpful regarding my enquiries about booking and payment for the tour. I would have liked a copy of our itinerary prior to arriving at our destination to have a...
Highly satisfactory. The staff at the UK office was courteous and responsive.

We are not sure what "service" refers to. If it pertains to the bookings and pre-trip information by CE, then we already outlined this in our review - it was excellent. We added all our comments on...

Thank you very much for your lovely review. We are delighted to hear how much you enjoyed exploring the ancient sites of Macedon and that the tomb of Philip II proved such a highlight.

Thank you again for travelling with us and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future.
The tour manager, Ross Bosworth-Davies, did his best to deal with the often not so helpful locals that controlled entry to the venues we visited. Ross was also very fair when it came to a billing...
