Ginge Tours Ltd / Mendip Travel Reviews 

I cannot thank Geoff and Jo enough for organising an amazing family trip.
They are so knowledgable, friendly and professional - nothing was too much trouble and they were always on hand to answer any questions we might have.
I would highly recommend Ginge Tours and will definitely use them again

Great trip to Crete booked through Ginge tours. They managed to find us a cheaper price than the brochure so more money for duty free and drinks when in Crete.
Kept very well informed throughout the process and it was a painless experience from start to finish.
Would have no hesitation in recommending them and will be using Ginge tours for all future bookings.

We have recently retuned from 11 night cruise, stopping at 12 different port and 7 different countries and cannot thank Ginge Tours enough. We are a family of 10, covering three generations. They arranged for all our cabins with balconies to be on the same deck next to each other. All the ports we requested were accommodated and we got to go to some wonderful places and view places that we have only seen on TV. We cannot praise Ginge Tours enough and would highly recommend them.

My family and I have just returned from a fabulous MSC Cruise that was arranged and booked through Ginge Tours. From start to finish with advice and booking they were top rate and couldn’t do enough. Fully recommend them for your holiday needs. Thanks again Geoff and Jo.

I have just returned from Cyprus with my daughters and granddaughters from a holiday booked through Ginge Tours. They couldn't have made the process any easier, communication was exemplary. The wealth of information supplied on the holiday itinerary was invaluable. This was the first time I had booked through them, the price was spot on, I will be using them again and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Having considered joining the British & Irish Lions rugby tour to Australia 2025 we researched a number of options. However, upon speaking to Geoff and Jo we were sure we had found the right company to cater for all our needs.

We had specific requirements in multi locations for Geoff and Jo to consider. These contained travel for our family to join us in Australia from Japan. This caused no issue for Ginge Tours Ltd even when our Daughter in law announced that our second grandchild was due just before the tour. Geoff took this all in his stride with a fantastic holiday being the result.

We had stops in Perth WA, Melbourne Vic, and Sydney NSW. Each of the hotels were excellent in respect of location and ease of travel to and from and access to the tourist areas. When our family, which included a 4 year old and an 8 week old arrived in Melbourne the Atlantis Hotel was ideal for the young family, with a great room and as requested a cot. These small touches often get overlooked. We also requested Car Rental at both Perth and Melbourne and again the 'process' at the collection office was easy, the correct details were already in place and the appropriate vehicles ready for us.

The best was saved for last with the Park Royal Hotel in Darling Harbour. A spectacular hotel with matching facilities.

It is easy to say 'great holiday' but this needs a little explanation which I will now give. From the start of the booking process to our return home, Geoff and Jo have been available and willing to meet our demands/needs without fuss. I would suggest that it would be difficult to self book a trip such as ours by yourself with changes being required via the internet or a High Street agent.

Ginge Tours Ltd also provides an app which is available offline where all your flight, hotel, car rental and other vouchers are securely held. This was really easy to use and was updated regularly with flight details such as gate numbers, check in times and other useful information.

A great experience for our family and I would definitely use Ginge Tours Ltd again, and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Well done and Thank you Geoff and Jo

Tony Byrne and Family

I contacted Geoff and Jo late last year to help us organise our family holiday for this summer. My wife and I were quite specific on our budget and what we wanted out of the holiday as my son is autistic and it was going to be his first flight.

After a back and forth with Geoff I explained our issues re my son and he went away for a few days and came back to me and had hit every specification I asked for on the nose. Absolutely unbelievable. Also, saved us a huge amount of money compared to booking direct with easyjet.

We also spoke about the potential issues re my son and trying to make the experience as stress free as possible and they liaised with easyjet and got us all the help we needed.

I couldn't recommend Geoff and Jo any higher. They are fantastic and we're a huge help to me and my family.

We had an amazing family holiday!

Thank you!

Ginge Tours organised a fabulous family holiday for us in Corfu! The whole booking experience was very straightforward & everything made so simple on their app, which has all the holiday documents, vouchers, fast track etc. Geoff & Jo are very professional & friendly & listened to all our requests. We required 2 bungalows next to each other as we have 2 grandkids & they organised that. Thank you, we will be coming back to you & would highly recommend them.

Fantastic city break to Amsterdam organised by Geoff and Jo. Highly recommend Ginge Tours - very organised and excellent communication. Wouldn’t travel with any other travel company now. Thanks both

We recently celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with an unforgettable adventure across Canada and Alaska, expertly arranged by Ginge Tours—and we couldn’t be more thrilled. Having not used a travel agent in years, we approached the process with a bit of apprehension. But from the moment we connected with Geoff and Jo, every worry melted away.

Personal Touch from the Start
Geoff immediately suggested a joint meeting with Canadian Affairs, and what a brilliant idea that turned out to be. It gave us the chance to openly discuss options, weigh pros and cons, and shape our dream itinerary together. By the end of that meeting, our route was mapped out—seamless, exciting, and tailored to our anniversary celebration.

Meticulous Planning, Smooth Execution
Geoff handled every detail with incredible precision: flights, hotels, private transfers, train journeys, cruise bookings—you name it. The entire plan was then uploaded to the My Trips app, making everything easy to access and review before and during our travels.

The Adventure of a Lifetime
From travelling through Canada to picking up our cruise in Vancouver and exploring Alaska’s rugged beauty, every part of our trip worked like clockwork. Even when we encountered a couple of minor hiccups (our own doing!), Geoff responded swiftly, efficiently, and with genuine care.

Professionalism at Its Best
The professionalism and attention to detail shown by Geoff and Jo truly made this a once-in-a-lifetime celebration. They turned what started as a cautious step back into travel planning into a remarkable experience we’ll treasure forever.

Thank you, Geoff, Jo and Ginge Tours, for helping us make such cherished memories. Here's to the next adventure—with you by our side, of course.

Ginge Tours arranged a fabulous holiday for us in Kefalonia. From booking the holiday to our return home we knew they were on hand if we needed any support. The app that they use which holds all the details of your holiday works really well. We would highly recommend them.

Everything was arranged to perfection, all details covered and explained, first class offering, thank you to Ginge Tours.

Geoff and Jo, made the whole booking experience straight forward and were helpful with advice when our flights were delayed. The my trip app made access to all our travel documents for our P & O cruise from Malta easy. Would definitely recommend them as your holiday advocates. The P & O cruise was fantastic with Monte Carlo a particular highlight.

Highly recommend. Very responsive, understood what we wanted and were very professional. We will definitely use again.

Jo and Geoff are very helpful and very willing to look at options for you . Made our life a lot easier once we had decided where to go. They then do the leg work and come back with the options. Saves you spending ages looking yourself . Will be definitely using them again .

We’ve just returned from the most incredible cruise holiday – a breathtaking voyage around Iceland, the Land of Ice and Fire – and we can’t stop smiling!
Our journey began in Bristol, where we boarded Ambassador Cruise Line’s ship “Ambition”, setting sail in comfort and style. First stop was the charming coastal town of Falmouth, a lovely way to ease into cruise life with Cornish charm and sea breezes. From there, we headed north to the stunning Faroe Isles, where dramatic cliffs and serene villages greeted us – wet, wild and windswept in the most wonderful way.
But nothing quite prepared us for the awe-inspiring beauty of Iceland. From steaming geothermal springs and black sand beaches to glacier-carved fjords and vibrant Reykjavik, every moment felt like stepping into another world. It truly lives up to its nickname – the Land of Ice and Fire.
A massive thank you to Geoff & Jo at Ginge Tours and Travel, who made this whole trip not just possible, but incredibly easy. Their expert planning, warm approach, and attention to every detail ensured everything went smoothly. From booking to car parking & boarding, they took the stress out of travel and left us free to simply enjoy.
If you’re dreaming of an unforgettable adventure at sea, we can’t recommend Ambassador Cruise Line and Ginge Tours & Travel highly enough. Geoff & Jo – thank you for a holiday we’ll always treasure!
Kind regards from Thea & Richard Oliver, Jenny & Keith Cornell... here's to our next adventure!

Thank you Ginge Tours for arranging a trip for myself and friend. You make travelling so easy. Even down to meeting friend at Heathrow arriving within 5 mins of each other. The trip app was great so we knew what was happening each day.
This is the second time I have booked with Ginge Tours and will do so again

We had excellent service and support throughout the planning and preparation for our trip on Ambition. Always on hand for advice. Thank you

Just returned from another holiday arranged by Ginge Tours and, as always, it was superbly organised by Geoff and Jo.
Geoff managed to save us a considerable amount using his Emergency Services pledge ... so much so that we were able to book transfers and the airport lounge and still not pay what TUI were asking ...
We have used Ginge Tours on numerous occasions now and can't thank or praise them enough. All details regularly updated on the Trip Plans App and they even checked in with us half way through the holiday to make sure all was ok ....
