Thank you for a wonderful trip to Lakeside

Thank you for a wonderful trip on Saturday to Lakeside.

The coach was very comfortable, timings impeccable and icing on the cake was our lovely driver, Marcus. What an asset he is!

Will be booking again for sure.

It was a wonderful trip to London to see Moulin Rouge

A big thank you to Stefan and Anita for taking us on last Thursday’s trip to London to see Moulin Rouge. It was a wonderful trip out and really lifted our spirits. We are really looking forward to the next lot of London shows that you put in your programme. They are a real highlight.

Emma Pitt-Steele 1 October 2024

So pleasant and friendly

We would just like to say how happy we were with our driver, Andy, on our holiday last week, The Way We Were. He was excellent, always very happy and reassuring, so pleasant and friendly which is so nice when you are on holiday. We felt completely safe with his driving.

Diana and John Moore 28 September 2024

We had a fabulous day out

Please thank Mick for us for his professional skills yesterday – getting us to our destination on time despite the Orwell Bridge congestion and negotiating the difficult entrance/driveway at our (Grade I Listed) destination. Not to mention the Norfolk lanes - we had a fabulous day out.

Caroline Markham Secretary - Ipswich Society 17 September 2024

Thanks for the professional and skilful driving and pleasant help during the day

Thanks to your driver Mick, for taking us to the Norwich and Norfolk Aviation Society, and the Station Headquarters at West Raynham.

His professional driving, and pleasant help during the day, accompanied by his skill in taking the large coach down some very narrow Norfolk lanes, made what was already going to be a fascinating day out for our members even better.

Howard King Martlesham Heath Aviation Society 5 August 2024

Enjoyed our trip to Beth Chatto’s Garden with Felixstowe Travel

I am writing to let you know how much my sister and I enjoyed our trip to Beth Chatto’s Garden on 16th May with Felixstowe Travel. We had a lovely trip to East Bergholt and Dedham on the way, and were amazed at the skill with which driver Andy negotiated the coach through narrow country lanes with confidence and only inches to spare. The Blue Badge Guide Claire was extremely knowledgeable and kept us informed and entertained between venues. The weather was awful but the rain didn’t dampen our enjoyment of the day. We hope to do another trip next year.

Gill Mason 17 July 2024

We had a great day out!

Norfolk Lavender & Legends Day Out - we had a great day and great weather. Thanks Mick and Anita for being so gracious and making people comfortable.

I enjoyed my day and felt welcomed

Norfolk Lavender & Legends Day Out - it was my first coach trip by myself to Lavender Fields. I enjoyed my day and felt welcomed and met some nice people too. Thanks you for making my trip comfortable.

Nicky George 19 June 2024

It was a pleasure travelling with Felixstowe Travel

Special thanks from me and all the coachload for giving us such carefree travel. We even got back an hour sooner than I'd anticipated thanks to lighter traffic and crafty navigation. It was a pleasure travelling with Felixstowe Travel. You created a sound basis for a good company! Many thanks.

Alma Suffolk Singers 5 May 2024

Driver was a delight to work with

I just wanted to pass along how happy I was with our driver Marcus. He was a delight to work with and never questioned any decision that I made. Everyone on the tour seemed to like him and, above all, he is an excellent driver.

Stewart Wee Tartan Shop, Toronto Canada 3 September 2023

Our driver Martin was courteous, personable, and accommodating

On behalf of the MOD’s LGBT+ Network, and all MOD personnel who marched, thank you for your support to our participation in Pride In London this year. The support that you and your colleagues gave in transporting the marching band to and from London (and within the parade area) was invaluable. I would especially like to thank your driver on the day, Martin, who was exceptional. Martin was absolutely unflappable despite all the pressures of navigating road closures, revellers and other (less patient and professional) drivers in a busier-than-usual central London. He was courteous, personable, and accommodating and he kept in close touch with us throughout to reassure us regarding drop-offs and pick-ups. In short, both his driving and his client-facing skills were first-rate.

N Pett Ministry of Defence 20 July 2023

Our driver Jim was always helpful and there was nothing too much trouble

Many thanks to Kay, our Tour Manager, and Jim, our driver from Felixstowe Travel, for their caring and professional manner throughout our week on the sunny Isle of Wight. Jim was always helpful and there was nothing too much trouble for him and they both made it a very memorable holiday.

Carol and Jean 16 July 2023

Driver was very attentive to our needs

Thank you for your coach services for our recent trip to RHS Wisley.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day, albeit it being quite hot. Also special thanks to our driver, Jim, who was very attentive to our needs and kept us entertained during our journeys to and from the venue.

Jayne Steele Felixstowe Garden Club 13 June 2023

A big thank you to everyone at Felixstowe Travel

We had a trip to Hyde Hall Gardens on Thursday and we just wanted to say what a really lovely outing it was. The driver, Martin, was excellent as was the guide Anita. The staff at Hyde Hall were very courteous and kind. I was able to hire a mobility scooter as I wouldn’t have been able to walk around the best places to see. There was a lot of walking but thankfully I rang them before we went and they loaned me their brand new scooter. Altogether it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and the sun shone beautifully too. A big thank you to everyone at Felixstowe Travel.

Bob and Patsy Sambrook 9 June 2023

Marcus was an excellent driver!

I recently returned from a weekend in Torquay on one of your coaches on behalf of Just GO Holidays. I would like to thank you for the driver of your coach, Marcus, as he was so helpful to me as a disabled passenger. He was an excellent driver. I would like you to commend him and you should be proud of having a driver like Marcus in your company.

George & Sandra Cagehin 7 June 2023

Marcus, our driver, was an absolute diamond, so helpful, and respectful to all the passengers! 

Following our recent coach excursion to Torquay, we would just like to pass on our compliments to you and to our driver Marcus.
Marcus was an absolute diamond, so helpful, and respectful to all the passengers!
He worked so hard to make sure everyone was safe and happy, nothing was too much trouble, and he is perfect for the job.
He has a fabulous sense of humour which kept us all laughing.

Alan and Sharon 29 May 2023

Highly recommended London excursion

Thank you for taking us to London to see the Tina Turner musical - what a great show and I can’t thank you enough for the smooth and prompt service.  You were highly recommended by others and I will keep a look out for more of your excursions/shows in London in the future. Many thanks again.

Sarah Ward 20 May 2023

Helpful and professional

I want to say how helpful and professional the two coach drivers were, that we had were on the trip last week to the Peak District. Jim and Bryan were a credit to your company and served us brilliantly in all we asked of them.

Lovely coach trip to London

Thank you for a lovely and well-organised coach trip to London on Sunday. We had a wonderful day, with Lee as our excellent driver.

Little did we know, after such a good day, that the snow would arrive on the way home. Lee did a great job in difficult conditions, keeping us entertained and getting us out of the terrible conditions safely home.

We look forward to travelling with you again in 2023.

Claudia Bond 14 December 2022

An excellent driver and host throughout the whole trip

I would like to thank your travel company for providing one of your coaches and drivers for the Turkey & Tinsel trip to Bournemouth which we have just completed. The driver, Marcus, was fantastic. He was an excellent driver and host throughout the whole trip. He was very professional, funny, patient and caring towards his passengers. He is a definite asset to your company.

Mr & Mrs Gul 25 November 2022

The coach was really comfortable and the driver was brilliant!

We have just returned from a fabulous trip to Bournemouth. Our first time on a coach mini break. The coach was really comfortable and the driver Marcus was brilliant. His driving was perfect, but above all he was so professional, helpful and caring to everyone. He made the journeys more enjoyable with his quick wit and banter. You have a diamond amongst your staff. We were lucky to have had him with us.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you all.

Diane & Alan Lane 25 November 2022

Bournemouth & New Forest Excursion

I would like to thank you for the driver we had for our 5 day excursion to Bournemouth and the New Forest from the 21st to the 25th November 2022. He was very polite and entertaining and liked and respected by every one on the coach.

Mr J Clayden 25 November 2022

We will definitely be recommending and using you again in the future

Thank you for our journey to and from Telford on Monday. Both drivers were absolutely amazing and a laugh as well. We all really appreciated them getting us to Telford and back safely and giving us a fantastic journey. We all loved the humour of both drivers and how lovely they both were. Will definitely be recommending and be using again in the future.

Nadiah Chowdhury 24 October 2022

Let’s see where our next adventures can take us!

Just a quick note to thank you for such a great day out yesterday and for looking after our small group so well. We all thoroughly enjoyed the day, made perfect by the excellent organisation from your end!

We, as Just Good Friends, are a small social group for people who find themselves living on their own for whatever reason and want to enjoy outings we may not do on our own. I am the event organiser for the group and will most definitely be looking out for your next brochure to see where our next adventures can take us!

Stella Bacon Just Good Friends Group 8 September 2022

A pleasure to have as our driver

Very friendly, courteous and helpful to our guests

I just wanted to say what a pleasure it has been to deal with your company over the past months and to thank you for three very successful excursions last week.

Peter St Augustine's Holiday at Home 20 June 2022

Punctual, Polite and Helpful

A quick note to thank you and your staff for such good service this week. Steve was punctual, polite and helpful on all occasions, as was Ian on the one day he stood in. It certainly helped in the smooth running of our 5 day tour of East Anglia as any problems with transport for 32 tourists would have been pretty disastrous!

John Dunbar Thorndon Park Golf Club 20 May 2022

Amazing service

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the amazing service I’ve had with you. Anita was so lovely to speak on the phone and very helpful!

Probably the best driver we have ever had

I have just come back from a holiday to Bournemouth, with the holiday company "Just Go". This coach was one of yours, Felixstowe Travel, with your driver Jim. He is such an asset to your company and probably the best driver we have ever had on any of our coach holidays.

The service is always premium class

I would like to thank you Mick on behalf of my party for the excellent weekend in Southport.  It was a long time coming due to covid but we got there in the end. Your coach as usual was immaculately clean  and the extra cleaning and sterilizing you have to do at the moment l had no worries .  You as a driver was smartly dressed,  efficient, friendly and very helpful .  The tour of Liverpool was very interesting and thank you for arranging this. I would not hesitate to recommend your company to my friends as in all the years you have either helped me to arrange tours or just taken my group out for any occasion the service is always premium class.

Maddison, Gainsborough Labour club 2 June 2021

First Class Travel with a First Class Company

I was recently a passenger aboard a rail replacement bus run by Felixstowe Travel Ltd, the bus was immaculate inside and out, with all COVID measures adhered to, I felt extremely safe. Lee our driver was a true gentleman and I would have no hesitation in recommending them for future excursions or private hire. I look forward to being a passenger again soon.

Mia Penn 8 January 2021

Gary Hammond

Can I just say a massive thanks to your coach driver on Saturday, the A127 was shut but he showed great knowledge of the local area and got us to the ground for our match at Gt Wakering in good time when others struggled.

We would be more than happy to have him on a regular basis where possible as a lot of our journeys are around the Essex area and he seems to know the area very well.

Gary Hammond Felixstowe & Walton FC. 22 September 2020

7 August 2019

Janet Ray

I would like to say a big thank you for the excellent driver we had last night for our mystery trip from the Labour Club. David was as usual smartly dressed, polite and friendly. He had us going round in circles on the way to The Castle at Framlingham, Slowing down near various places so the people on the coach thought they were going there. We even had a mystery trip coming home thanks to the A12 being closed.

I would also like to thank you on behalf of those that travelled to Weston Super Mare in July. We enjoyed Mick's company and the great service he provided. As normal smartly dressed, polite and friendly. The coach was comfortable, clean and had plenty of leg room, adjustable seats for those who liked a bit more room. I would like to say a special thanks to Mick for helping me arrange this trip with his ideas for the day out. Must say the Cider Farm was very popular.

Looking forward to next years trip.

Once again thank you for the excellent service you provide.

7 July 2019

Lorrain Kirk

Fantastic service. Nothing too much trouble. Lee was much more than our driver - feel like we have made a friend. Coach was really lovely comfortable, wifi etc. couldn't ask for more. So if you are looking for a company that is reliable, comfortable and has drivers that care, look no further.

7 June 2019

Colin Potter – Chairman Ipswich Aviation Society

Thank you and your company for the part you played in making our day go so smoothly. Dave did a terrific job as our driver and all the timings were spot on, please pass on our thanks. We look forward to working with you again in the near future.

We are just back from a coach trip to Weston-super-Mare with David Urquhart Holidays - where the coach was supplied by Felixstowe Travel. A super coach and Lee an excellent driver - very courteous and helpful. Looking forward to our next trip

19 March 2019

Thursford 2019 Part 3

I would like to say how professional and well your driver, Dave, coped in trying circumstances with an accident near Ipswich. It added a little time to our journey from Thursford yesterday afternoon but nobody complained. A good advert for your company.

11 December 2018

Thursford 2019 Part 2

Just to let you know how pleased we were with all the arrangements yesterday to Thursford - although it rained most of the journey there and all the way back Dave was super. It was also so nice to have his wife with him as courier and the chocolates were a lovely touch. Dave really had a tough journey back through Coddenham, etc. because of the accident on the A14 but it didn't seem to bother him and we all felt OK because he kept us in touch with what was going on. It was a wonderful show and we also had plenty of time to get food and go around the Winter Wonderland, a lovely way to start our Christmas.

11 December 2018

Thursford 2019 Part 1

Wonderful concert as usual. Dave and his Courier were absolute gems , they are a real asset for your company. Our seats on the coach and in the concert were super.

11 December 2018

Rohit Barot

Our journey to the Isle of Wight in July was a most enjoyable experience. In the context, I and my wife Jyoti wanted to express our special thanks to our outstanding coach driver Mr Lee Dabbs of Felixstowe Travel. Besides being an excellent driver, he is a delightful kind man. Everyone without exception, liked him and his ability to respond with good humour and kindness to all. I felt Lee's presence added something special to our island break with David Urquhart Travel. Hence our very warm thanks to him for his support.

13 September 2018

10 September 2018

Maureen Grenfell

Would just like to say thank you to your driver Gwyn for contributing to the success of our day out at Fibre East. Everyone appreciated his excellent smooth driving, helpfulness and consideration.

31 July 2018

Becky Brame

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the smooth and comfortable transfer to and from Stansted. Both Elwyn and Dave were absolute legends and were super helpful. The driving was very good from both guys which put the more nervous passengers at ease! Both guys were on time and super lovely. Thanks especially to Dave who had to wait for us as the flight was delayed.... he didn’t complain or moan and was really understanding. A great service from you guys and I will be sure to recommend the company to friends and be in touch in the future. Thanks again for a great service.

4 June 2018

Julie Pimperton

I wish to compliment your driver Dave on his very safe, courteous and careful driving during our weekend trip to the Chelsea Flower Show and Wisely. His personality shone through in a very polite, humorous and calm way despite extremely busy bank holiday traffic and 'late' passengers! I wish all drivers were this good. Thank you.

29 May 2018

Usha Bhatia

We were very much satisfied with your 16-seater coach & services which we hired on 24th March 18 to Wolverhampton & back on 26th March. The drivers Lee & David were polite & helping. The coach was good as it took our luggage & our suit bags & wedding dresses in a very good order. I was a bit apprehensive at first but now happy that I chose your company. I would like to use your services in future if the need arrives and would recommend you to our friends.

18 April 2018

I just wanted to say thank you so much once again for the excellent service your company provided. Your driver was absolutely wonderful and so supportive, calm and helpful. He was also really lovely to the students and was very approachable. I did thank him at the time.

First can I commend your driver Gwyn who took us to Kensington Palace on Tuesday 28th November. The traffic was extremely congested both ways in London, but Gwyn was calm, patient and a really excellent driver. Many of my party commented on how good he was. Despite the heavy traffic, we all had a really good day and I have received many emails saying so since then. Please book us in for our next trip in January!

6 December 2017

28 November 2017

James Morley FA

Thank you for the service on Saturday, I spoke with my colleague who went on Saturday and has only provided me with praise about the driver who looked after the players and parents for the trip to Watford.

2 August 2017

Anchor Freight

I would like to thank you very much for such an excellent service your company gave to our group over the weekend for our company convention & summer ball. The coaches were always waiting and always arrived on time at airport collections, drop offs and taking staff from hotels over from Ipswich and Felixstowe and delivering to venue.

Would also like to thank you for your chauffeur service that we used. It was excellent added value to get certain people to other airports.

Once again, many thanks on a wonderful service given to us last weekend. I would recommend your company to everyone.

29 June 2017

Suffolk Schools Cross Country Team

I just wanted to say that your driver Dave yesterday, was fabulous - really helpful, courteous and didn't mind at all that we had to come home a bit later (though we still got back in time!). You and your company provided a great service - many thanks.

5 February 2017

Trevor Rowe

I would like to thank you for the service you provided. Timing for the return pick up was always going to be difficult based upon estimated schedules, factoring into the nature of travel abroad, for example the Ferry crossing we boarded an earlier sailing, contributing towards two hours earlier at our pick up point.

Telephoning from the previous coach drop off with our expected arrival time, was always going to put pressure on our arrangement, however I and my party was most surprised and thankful to see our taxi waiting for us, avoiding a possible long cold evening wait after a very long day of travel.

I cannot fault your service – from making the booking, punctual collection times, and awkward situation into a rescue. Based upon this experience I would certainly recommend your service without hesitation, and propose to book again in the future.

We hired the coach in May for our lady capt golf away day at Hintlesham.

21 June 2016

Liz Claydon – Felixstowe Embroidery Workshop

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for the transport you provided for our trip today. It was very good of you to still send the 29 seater - unfortunately more of our group dropped out at the last minute (pulled muscles and sprained backs) so we were able to spread out nicely. Please pass on our thanks once again to our driver. Despite rain and a 30 minute delay on the A14 he did admirably and our members were more than grateful that they didn't have the hassle of driving. All in all a very enjoyable day was had by us all.

Having just returned from my golf coaching week in the Algarve I just wanted to touch base on my experience with Felixstowe Travel. Our Meeting point was at Felixstowe Ferry GC and collected further passengers along the way from Trimley/Manningtree and then to Stansted.

I will be highly recommending your services to everyone and should we go on holiday next year - we shall use you again. Once again thank you.

We cannot thank your driver Dave enough for how he looked after us on Friday and especially through Saturday night as he went out of his way to make sure everyone was OK and was so understanding when we arrived late due to several members practically flaking out during the cycle ride from Winchester to Eastbourne. Dave even brought us some water which was greatly received and was a lovely touch. We felt really bad for delaying his so badly but he said it was no problem. An absolute gentleman! Thank you.

After Booking by email to use M&A Dabbs the service we received was great.

The service on the day was first class as drivers were friendly and helpful but also knowledgably to where we were going and they got us into London with no trouble at all (even though it was London Marathon day). The Coach was clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend this company and my company will definitely be returning customers.

We used Mick for a corporate trip to Romford Dogs and were not disappointed with the Coach or the service. The coach was luxurious and spotlessly clean, the driver arrived on time and was cheerful and very well presented. We made great time to our destination, even allowing for a stop on the way, which was graciously accommodated by the driver. Upon departure the driver’s instructions were very clear and precise and ensured we got away in good time. We certainly will be using Mick again in the future. Many thanks for the excellent service.

Anita Postle

I cannot thank Mick enough for coming to our rescue in our hour of need. We were stranded in the middle lane of the Copdock Roundabout for nearly two hours trying to find alternative transport to get us to London to see my son's band play at the O2 Acadmey in Islington (an event you can imagine no mum would want to miss). We were given absolutely no help with this from either our original hire company or their driver. Mick was an absolute legend and within less than 45 minutes of contacting him he had rearranged his afternoon and evening and was with us at Copdock with a very smart coach and a much needed cheerful smile. We were finally on our way, we had a great journey there and back and Mick completely restored our faith in human nature. We were provided with a first class service, nothing was too much trouble for him and we will all certainly to recommending you to anyone with travel needs in the future - you are the best Mick thank you.
