Communication with the Marathon Tours and Travel staff was excellent. Nicole was very
responsive, and incredibly helpful. Her emails with trip details were thorough and easy to
understand. I was nervous about traveling to a country that I didn't speak the language, but felt
much better with all of the detailed information that was provided.
This is my second trip with Marathon Tours and it won't be the last one. Nicole is great with all the
pre-race communication and gets back to me almost immediately to answer any questions I have.
The staff during the trip is wonderful, everyone is so personable - I am so appreciative of all the
planning, the tours, their knowledge of the destination and the race.
Attention to detail is outstanding. Where else are you met before heading to the start line about
specific short cuts you can take to your corral because Jeff and the team have gone down at 5 AM
to pre-scout the area!! Outstanding service from all the staff, great city tour ad fantastic reception
to finish off the race weekend!!
One of the things I appreciate most is that Marathon Tours plans
everything, all I have to do is show up. I love the people on this tour - staff and other travelers!
How do you manage to put together such a nice group of people to travel with? I love how
knowledgeable the staff is about the race and the destination.
This note is to thank you again for your creativity, hard work and thorough professionalism. Eight years later and I'm still impressed as all get out.
Stephanie's first time with Marathon Tours, she was the perfect host. She was dedicated to ensure everything was smooth and we had a great time. Thank you Stephanie.
Thank you. Had a great time and look forward to doing additional tours with you in the future. I have and will continue to recommend your company to my running friends.
What did I like best? The camaraderie of the people on the trip along with history of the local sites and the marathon itself.
Spectacular. You have to include Meteora in any future extensions.
My eyes feel like kaleidoscopes trying to absorb all of the beauty that I experienced.
Cape Town and area is a beautiful place to visit!
Stephanie and Jen were excellent. Your attention to detail made the trip run very smoothly. All aspects of the trip exceeded my expectations. Thank you!
Comprehensive, insightful, and well organized trip to a rare gem!
From the rooftops of Havana I experienced fabulous food, great weather, made new friends and had impactful cultural exchanges during the tours which will remain with me forever.
The extension was the icing on the cake of a GREAT vacation and an ending with relaxation.
I loved this trip, it was a unique cultural and foreign experience. It’s what I was looking for! The hotel, the food, the location - everything was great. I felt the communication about what to expect before and during the trip was spot on and there were no surprises.
Well organised. Excellent pre-trip information. Quick email responses and detailed information. Well done! I think we experienced the best of the best in Havana.
Karen was on top of everything ... fielding questions, comments and requests very quickly. I felt like I was in good hands.
Travel to Cuba is unique, and more complex that most of my past international travel. Karen's patience and knowledge was greatly appreciated.
Karen was an excellent "tour guide" and problem solver during the Havana portion of the trip as we did not extend beyond Havana. During the pretrial planning and preparation, Karen was totally on top of the logistics, and was most responsive and timely to all our questions. Since I am an author, I was most impressed with her writing and communication ability. I would highly recommend Karen and give her a 6 star rating. ( on a scale of 1 to 5)
