It is definitely worth the time to take a tour to Montserrat. Our guide, Oliver, was fantastic and so knowledgeable. The only thing I would have liked was a little more time to explore but it was worth the trip to see the monastery and be on the mountain.
I highly recommend Expat Explore's UK tour via coach. We got to see most of the UK with exception to London in 7 days. We benefited from our tour guide's vast knowledge of history and appreciation of the diverse cultures that make up the UK. There were some stops that I found redundant and could potentially be replaced, such as Gretna Green. However, the overall experience was amazing. Hotel rooms were small and breakfast was ok, but I prefer the small price of the overall tour rather than expensive hotel and food experiences. They were also very accommodating of our dietary choices.
Cycling Vietnam - July 18th 2015 This was a very diverse holiday, with a great group of people and a well organised guide and support team. Fantastic food - seafood like you have never seen before, and beer the equivalent of 35p - £1.00.
