What the brothers (and others) have said

These quotes are just a few from thousands of written testimonials and comments:

• "Your arranging these tours is the answer to our prayer!"
• "it takes all the stress out of the weekend"
• "Our weekend was absolutely AWESOME! Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the itinerary and the association. The general consensus was when can we do this again, and how can you (Bethel Tours) do all this for the price we paid. We feel like weve robbed you!?!"
• "a great time"
• [Israel 2010] "I've been impressed with being able to visualise the localities, particularly Jerusalem"
• [Israel 2010] "We'd never seen anything like as much of (ancient) Jerusalem as we did this week; I don't think anybody from Europe will have seen more of Jerusalem than we did this week - a privilege in fact to go into a lot of the places that we did."
• [Israel] "very, very interesting."
• "The Hotel was very comfortable, the brothers were surprised at the standard considering what they had paid."
• "a great time"
• "Sunday was busy but amazing. Interesting for the younger ones to see the Palace, the time at Covent Garden was just right (lots of things bought) and the Thames cruise was a highlight for everyone. Great commentary on the boat. The other museums were very busy but the time given was about right."
• "I have thought long and hard about how to improve this trip (betheltours asked all of us) but have failed miserably! The Bethel - excellent. Hotel - first class organisation and staff friendly. The Bus - always there on time, patient, safe in mad London traffic. British Museum - tour guide was very informative and without that it would have been hard work. Boat trip, tour of London, Covent Garden - everything else was spot on. Many thanks to our [lunch] man for the prep of the packed lunches. Overall everything was so well thought out and well organised. We didnt have to think of anything which was a testament to the hard work put in. The company of Jehovah's people is what pulled it all together and so makes a lovely lovely weekend."
• "The trip represents exceptional Value for Money. I would expect to have spent at least £400 for such an eventful and comfortable weekend had I done it independently."
• "The packed lunch was surprisingly good, and much more than we were expecting."
• "I am amazed at the timings. Everything including the coach travel through traffic was always within 5 minutes of the itinery - wow!"
• "a fantastic trip"
• "a superb holiday"
• "excellent organised trip"
• "really upbuilding weekend"
• "very uplifting weekend"
• "your 'biblical history' is astonishing!"
• "all the young ones have had a fab time"
• "your loving care and attention"
• "a lovely weekend with good association"
• "enjoyed the trip as usual"
• "a mixture of love and laughter"
• "very high standard; thank you for all your hard work"
• "you have been fab"
• "weekend feast spiritual and companionship wise"
• "Really looking forward to the trip and sure it will fab. We went on the one with Manchester New Moston and were really impressed."
• "thank you so much for all your hard work in organising the trip. It was such a resounding success and the brothers and sisters had a fabulous time. Heena was a delight – great fun and she got on very well with everybody. ...made a great double act with their guide commentary! Everything was organised so well and it was lovely to just relax and enjoy the trip."
• "All who attended (including 3 unbelieving husbands) feel much closer and we’re all really refreshed and upbuilt."
• "the whole weekend was really wonderful, everything so well organized everybody enjoyed the experience, and our lovely guide Heena we wanted to bring her to wigan with us such a joy to be with. Thank you so much for your caring for us ."
• Dear brother Derek - Thanks for everything!!!!!!!!Being with our brothers and sisters in the group this 3 days was the best we could do in our trip!
  we enjoyed every part of the tour!!!!!Thanks also for the photos.
• Thank you on behalf of all of us at Clydach Congregation for what was a fantastic trip. Peter and Heena were incredible -they catered for everything and I had nothing but praise for them from all on the trip. Thank you and Pauline for organising this for us -it has left us all on a spiritual high and I have no doubt we will want to do it again in the near future
• (Sept 2011) "Everyone had a really fantastic time as I am sure you realised by their comments and happy spirit on the trip. So many commented how the trip was amazing value for money and how delighted they were to be part of it. Ralph [driver] was fantastic wasn't he! You have a good team to look after us. I especially noticed how you looked after him Derek, I thought you were very kind with him...
  The staff coped amazingly the first evening and morning didn’t they.... We thought breakfast was marvellous."
• (Sept 2011) Dear Derek & Pauline; thanks so much for the amazing photos - everyone loves them, thanks again. Didnt realise would have a copy for each person + babies :), Thanks again for providing an amazing Bethel Trip and some great memories for the cong. Keep up the great work - encouragment should never be under valued!!! yes its like treasure !!! :) Thanks again to all your team.
• (Sept 2011) Words cant really express our gratitude for the hard work you have put into making our Bethel trip a massive success! Can I say special thanks to Philip Osborne who really is a warm, kind and considerate Brother! His guiding skills made all present feel relaxed and we have a much better knowledge of London now! As a Congregation we feel on a bit of a spiritual high and already a few of us talking of a New York Bethel trip so watch this space!

One of the best testimonials is that many individuals and whole congregations have been a second, even a third time with us!
