Amazing landscape and supportive and enthusiastic staff, very knowledgeable
What did I like best? The adventure of it. So different than any other travel experience.
Everything was fantastic! Jacqui was friendly, knowledgeable and very welcoming and inclusive. Accommodations & meals were great! Will definitely use marathon tours again and recommend to other runners!
Awesome customer experience. Great communications and timely. Customer service is the differentiator these days and you nailed it. Thanks for that!!
My daughter and I were so happy to have the opportunity to run this race together this year. Marathon tours made this possible and the organization and professionalism were superb. We hope to do more marathon trips through marathon tours and will be spreading the word to all of our running friends. Thank you again for making our New York experience absolutely amazing
The hosts of marathon tours were excellent. The prerace communication exceeded my expectations. Thank you!. The hotel was a pleasant surprise. It was much nicer than I expected and the location was very good. The bus to the start line was excellent. Well done. Karen and Anna were amazing!! Thank you ladies for all your hard work. I plan to travel with Marathon tours to London and would highly recommend you as a tour group.
I liked how everything was organized for me including events that we could attend and having the transportation to the start of the race as part of the package. It took a lot of stress off in worrying about all of those details.
I called the Marathon Tours' office to inquire about another Major's Race and spoke with Nicole. She informed me of the VIP Package, as well as the advantages of the Seven Continents Club. She encouraged me to join and take advantage of trip. Before it sold out. I said, thanks and signed up.
I enjoyed doing this destination trip with a travel group! It was fun, well-planned, but you still had free time to do your own thing! Two thumbs up for Marathon Tours. Jen and Anne were fantastic.
What did I like best? Queenstown Marathon. Many choices of adventurous day trips surrounding Queenstown, such as Milford Sound scenic boat tour, Routeburn Trail 1 day hike, Gibbston Trail bike ride from Arrowtown to Gibbston Valley Winery.
Queenstown is a very picturesque place with many things to do. Jacqui is very familiar with both Auckland and Queenstown so was very helpful in thinking about what to do. Thought the marathon was very well organized and beautiful. Would do this trip again
It is hard to pick just one--I thoroughly enjoyed meeting fellow runners and hearing about all of their running adventures; as I stated before, I really enjoyed going to the ballet school; but, I guess I have to say, crossing the marathon finish line after almost 5 1/2 hours of inhaling car exhaust, and seeing Karen, Thom and Jeff cheering for me, was a really the best!
Our first trip ever with a tour company and it was an excellent experience. Other than afore mentioned sight seeing burn out, I have no complaints. Food and accommodations were far superior than expected. Marathon staff were excellent. I would highly recommend your company to others.
The people!--participants, leaders, guides, drivers were all great. So much fun to talk to people about other races and running experiences around the world. Seeing all the 1950's American cars--always mentioned as a highlight of the old Cuba. Some of my U.K. friends who have visited since they were not subject to the embargo, always said to me that they wanted to visit before it opened up to the Yanks and got ruined by having Starbucks and McDonalds on every corner!
Cuba was one of the best tours I have taken with Marathon Tours.
This was a wonderful trip to a truly unique destination, with a great group of fellow travelers.
It was an absolutely amazing trip. The tour leaders were excellent, the local tour guides were really great. I can only say positive things about the experience. Many many thanks for such a wonderful tour. Keep up the good work and I look forward to travelling with the company again. Thank you also for the post-run celebration party on the island in the river.
The race course marking was exceptional, especially for such a remote course, and the placement of the water stations was very good. Wonderful to see the local volunteers and the locals cheering along the way. (Challenging course with sand surfaces...deep sand at times).
Thanks for a great experience! Marathon Tours did a wonderful job in making my first Boston marathon into a wonderful weekend. I will definitely keep Marathon Tours in mind for my next race!
Everything seemed to come together perfectly for this trip. I honestly feel the money I spent was worth every penny for the cultural experiences I received.
