Greetings from the Manager
My apologies for the extended delay in updateing our blog, it's been quite a season. Oh boy, do we have some exciting news in the pipeline. A BIG welcome to our new team members in the office; Dan, Chloe and Conny and two great new guides on the road Paul and Graham. They will be introducing themselves on this blog in the very near future (all have great travel backgrounds and a passion for Britain - won't tell you how much it cost me to 'poach' them from our competition, however every penny was worth it!)- watch this space..

You must excuse me, its very late, my kids are missing Daddy and I am helping with the morning hotel pick ups so off home
Look forward to sharing our news with you shortly.
P.S Have had 2007 Stonehenge special access dates confirmed with the English Heritage - Check out our` website.



Did you know ?
The phrase "By hook or by crook" - There are several derivations given. One is that peasants were permitted under the ancient forestry acts only to take from the forests that which they could reach from the edge with their hooks or shepherds crooks. Another version has it that Cromwell vowed to take Waterford in Ireland attacking either via the villages of Hook or Crook.

Dear Astral Travel Team
Just a short note to say thank you so much for a lovely trip. Did the Oxford/Stratford trip with Dave and Debbie yesterday. It will definately stand out as a memorable moment. I'm actually quite happy with the fact that we got some rain, must be my romantic side, as I saw the real English weather.
The day was quite full, however, I got back home and felt refreshed. The tour was well planned and professionally executed. Dave's eccentric comments often had me smiling and please tell him I say that he did a great job entertaining us and getting us home safely.
Kind regardsElouise Moolman
