At the early beginning Glenton holiday company cared and helped, I am very thankful as they, a week before our trip, managed to get hotel room for my son, who unexpectedly flew to Edinburgh to visit me for few weeks .
I was going to cancel trip to Donegal as cancellation is possible not later than two weeks before holiday starts and my family is more important for me than any money
With Glenton help we could enjoy together 5 days holiday
Off course, without two of professionals, beautiful couch Moira and our joyful bus driver Darren , that journey wouldn't be that great !
Thank you all for your wonderful work and safe way home ❤️

I realizedhol to Dublin over the weekend before my…
I realized over the weekend before my holiday started on Monday 25/3/24 that I did not have my Glenton holiday documents. There is no emergency phone number or way of checking departure/ pick times for the coach. CRAZY! I went on line & all I could get was ref no. & Congratulation of payment. I remembered the pick up time was 07.30 at Dunfermline. I was wrong it was 05.15. you phoned at that time to say they would wait till 05.30 no help to me as I takes me 45 min to drive to Dunfermline. In the end I had to meet the bus at Glasgow bus station, it takes me 1 hr 10 min & have to park at the expensive car park near the Buchanan St. On my return it cost me £160.to get out of the car park. I WANT YOU TO PAY ME BACK £160 as you never posted or emailed my documents.
Otherwise the holiday was ok, a very good tour hostess, Michelle but Alan the driver only played his personal music on the coach, Rock & Roll. Not my taste! I'm thinking of cancelling my next holiday with you to the Italian lakes with 2 overnight coach stops each way. The music alone would drive me nuts!
I await your reply!?

Thank you for your feedback.
We are sorry to hear about the difficulties you had joining your tour as you did not have your travel documents, which were posted to you on the 12th of March, and were therefore unsure of the departure time for the coach.
Your comments have been forwarded to our management team who will review your complaint and provide a response to you directly.
Many thanks for taking the time to give us your valued feedback.

First class coach driver and hotel
First class coach driver and hotel. The food served and waiting staff poor, it was blatantly obvious that profit was the utmost importance, shame as this marred the holiday. I actually made a verbal complaint to staff re attitude and food served, as on occasion it was flung not placed in from of you, the chef changed the vegetable after serving same for 3 nights after I complained. You need to address these matters with management

Coach was very clean and comfortable
Coach was very clean and comfortable, driver was excellent friendly,helpful and a good laugh.
Coming home could of done with a coffee and toilet break .
Pick up Dundee or Perth or even Halbeath instead of Dunfermline would be such an advantage for this area
