I was impressed with the ability to talk directly to Alahree and Ed as they were able to sort out issues for us directly. Overall: a really good time, the pupils had a fantastic experience and won a silver medal into the bargain.
[On an outdoor concert] The three bars and their customers really enjoyed the performance as well as passers-by and locals.
It was excellent. The staff were excellent and extremely helpful in all aspects. The food was outstanding, excellent standard and a very good range of choices, nobody could have left hungry.
Very comfortable and always safe. The drivers were very friendly and most helpful nothing was too much trouble.

“The contact I had with staff was always superb. The tour as a whole was fantastic. We all had an excellent time away and will continue to use Club Europe for our concert tours. “
“Fantastic, great access to excursions and a nice place to spend some time. It’s far enough from the centre of town to be quiet and safe but easily walkable. It’s run by one family, so it felt personal and welcoming. We used everything: skittles, gardens, playground, board games, karaoke, disco, bar and rehearsal space.”
“Damir made it a huge success. I needn’t have read our itinerary as he knew it so well. Everything ran smoothly due to his work. He went beyond what we expected from him. He went out trying to drum up an audience at all the concerts, helped load and unload and helped set up.”
“Fantastic driver, comfy coach, great coach company. This company has consistently been top notch every time we have used them. Always on time, never have to worry about finding our destination and flexible to meet our needs.”
by Tim
Director of Music
Essex
“Smoothly organised and run from first phone call to waving goodbye to the last band member on our return.”
“[On an outdoor concert] It was a beautiful outside theatre. A wonderful acoustic. We were greeted by a translator, then by the mayor of the town. Very nice and helpful.”
“Location was excellent. Near a swimming pool, away from a city.”
“Outstanding. Words can barely express how helpful and nice Robin was. He ensured the tour’s success and could not have done a better job or made it go more smoothly.”
“Truly outstanding. Mike was friendly and extremely helpful. Flexible, friendly, professional; the ideal coach driver.”

“As always the consistent professional team at club Europe allowed us to give our pupils an experience which will last forever. It was fantastic!”
“Rafaella was a crucial part of our team. She quietly and confidently went about her job, nothing was too much trouble. She was always thinking about us.. and this was noticeable and we appreciated it. “
“Amazing drivers we appreciated them. Thank you Keiths Coaches. The coach company can make or break a trip if the drivers are not flexible.. these drivers were simply brilliant!”

“A great tour. A tour that will create memories to last a lifetime.”
“[On a concert in a square] A total success. It was like coming home. Building up the relationship year on year with this concert has been inspirational. We have moved from a not too good slot to a prime evening slot at one of the largest venues at the festival.”
“Den Halder: Great place, good central location.”
“Caroline was brill, the group loved her and she carried out her job very professionally. She rang ahead to venues, liaised with local people and was brilliant. Most importantly she took the stress off me so I could focus on concerts.”
“Most excellent.”

“Hannah and Sabine were excellent. Overall, everything went well and we had a really good time both at the concerts and the other activities.”
“[On a park concert] We were made very welcome. The owner of the bar nearby provided everyone with two free drinks after the concert. Very supportive audience who really enjoyed it which made the band feel special.”

“It was reassuring to have [Maurice] with us to smooth any issues as a Dutch speaker. He did a very good job.”
“Excellent driver.”

“Hannah and Sabine are always very helpful and quick to respond to queries. It was a fabulous trip (even better than our last). Easily the best school-related experience of my career (12 yrs!). Seriously fantastic!”
“I would highly recommend this accommodation to other similar groups. We were well looked after at all times and the manager (Rosie) went out of her way to ensure we were happy and had what we needed. Could not have asked for better.”
“Maurice fitted in with the group well. He was helpful, kind, always calm (I think he would cope excellently in a crisis!), thorough and committed. He happily translated for us and answered questions about the Dutch way of life and culture, which aided our appreciation of the country.”
“Outstanding at all times. Darren and Alan were both great. They mixed well with the staff and the students, had a good sense of humour and communicated very well.”
by Joanne

“Alahree and Sabine were excellent, always available to email or talk. Overall expertly planned, taken care of and tremendous fun.”
“[On a concert in a cathedral] A success, spontaneous applause at the end of the Prayers from the congregation and many people came over to take photographs of the group.”
“The location turned out well. All venues and trips in easy distance, not too much travelling when we were there and tobogganing, bowling and castle were all within walking distance. Rico and Madeleine were excellent. Could not do enough. Very helpful at meal times and the disco and karaoke with the lights and foam was fabulous for the students.”
“The drivers were great, very friendly.”

“In one sentence: you make it simple!”
“Valkenburg is quiet but safe for students and the accommodaiton was very central.”
“She was all we expected and more - excellent. She really became one of the team, chatted happily to students and staff, had good adult ‘presence’ with the group, had limitless patience with our more needy students and was very organised, professional and efficient. Would definitely recommend Raffa to anyone as their tour rep.”
“The drivers were excellent, very friendly and seemed to enjoy the students. I’d definitely request these drivers again.”
by Philip
Head of Music

“Professional and reassuring. Alahree is as efficient and insightful as would be possible to be and Sabine has been fantastic in dealing with tour logistics. The tour was an outstanding success. The pupils and parents were really pleased, which makes my life easier. Many thanks.”
“[On a church concert] A huge success. The church streams performances live on the internet.”
“The location was excellent. If I returned to Valkenburg for what would be a fourth tour in this town I would request this hotel. All perfect, no complaints whatsoever.”
“Having worked with Lewis twice previously we knew that he would be perfect for our group. I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism and language skills. He works tirelessly to ensure tours run smoothly. “
“Excellent, courteous and helpful at all times.”

“The drivers took us to a chocolate factory on the way home which was a really nice gesture. Yet again the coach drivers made this tour for us with their helpful advice and forward planning to get to venues and excursions on time.”
“It was lovely, with friendly staff and close to the centre of town which was helpful for the shops/bowling and tour activities. Rooms were clean and food was very nice. The hotel staff were very accommodating and went out of their way to help us enjoy our stay. There was also a piano that we used in the foyer for individuals and small groups to practise their songs.”
by Heather

“Musically exciting and well organised with excellent venues. Thank you for your help, we had yet another successful tour.”

“It was the best we have stayed in, just outstanding.”
by Helen
Head of Music

“The hotel was in all fairness quite perfect. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the restaurant and bar area were beautifully quirky and had excellent facilities for the pupils to use, which helped to keep them entertained. Monique and her staff were the ultimate hosts and were friendly and helpful way beyond the call of duty. The quality of the food was superb. It is the first school trip abroad that I have been on where the pupils have all eaten well and been complimentary about the food, which was the right balance of being appealing to children of that age, whilst also healthy with a good mix of options including fresh salad every night.”
