Testimonials

Well organized and experience showed. It was so different from traditional marathon but was a blast. The tips from Thom were greatly appreciated throughout

The organization was excellent. Everything went smoothly and the day trips were great.

From the very first email all our questions were answered within the same day, and additional tips and help was always offered !!! Great contrast to another agency.

We definitely hit the big sightseeing destinations of the cities. Forbidden City, Great Wall and the Terra Cotta Warriors were all must sees and I'm glad we did them. Lots of good food.

Barcelona package was perfect. The hotel was really nice with very nice staff; location was very convenient to the start and finish of the marathon. Loved the city and the sites; marathon was well-organized and a nice route. Would do this one again.

I thought the Hilton was a wonderful hotel. The breakfast buffet that was included with the room was worth it (and I don't normally eat much at buffets). It was the best breakfast buffet I have ever seen. The hotel was very conveniently located near the start line plus we had a great view of the race course from our room. I really enjoyed the race experience. I know that there are some people who don't think much of the Tokyo race as a Major but I appreciate that things are different in other countries. This race is something that showcases the Japanese people and their culture. I loved being there and part of the race. The Marathon Tours staff that I talked to were all very informative and pleasant when I had questions. I always felt like I was in good hands. The snow monkey tour was terrific. My husband is still talking about them!

I went to Barcelona for the first time and loved the city. The food was delicious, I especially enjoyed authentic tapas. The prices in Barcelona were reasonable. Our hotel was nice and a very convenient and safe location. The marathon started with confetti floating like butterflies all over. The crowd that came to see us off made the event even more exciting.There were bands of young people playing drums along the marathon route and people to cheer us all the way. I love the marathon and I'm so glad I went with Marathon Tours!

This was my first experience and I plan to do London and Paris with the company. Had a great time!

Scott, Ann, and other the other Paris tour organizers were excellent!! They were professional and very very nice and genuine people. I felt as if they weren't only there to escort us through Paris for the marathon. They were also marathoners and new friends who could fathom the feelings of other marathoners on the trip which gave us all a connection.

Splendid Etoile was an excellent choice of hotel for this marathon event, the location was perfect, the room was excellent (size, comfort, service, interior decor, etc.) and the balcony of the hotel with the view of thee Arc de Triomphe was a cherry on top of the excellent location. I would highly recommend Marathon Tours to anyone who would like a race-cation. It was a reasonable price for everything that we paid for (excellent 5 star hotel, carb load dinner, and Paris tour)
