SmoothRed Reviews 

Smooth Red made planning our wedding trip to Scotland an amazing experience! Chris had fantastic suggestions, including adding two days in London, as well as working with some of my more esoteric requests, such as specific places to stay, finding a registrar that would meet us at a castle ruins, and finding a balance between history and luxury! Marjorie made working out the details a pleasure rather than a chore, answered so many questions and never made me feel the pest that I most certainly was! And the financial division was wonderful to work with, patient and understanding and helpful. All in all, I cannot imagine a way in which planning this trip could have been better!

Wonderful trip to Champagne organised by Smooth Red! We had to cancel our original trip due to covid, but rebooking was easy. The app was great and the whole day was so enjoyable! Many thanks to the team!

Perfect extended vacation that took us from Paris to Reims to Bordeaux. The champagne houses that SmoothReds tour picked were great and the information we gained from the wine making process was invaluable. It will make tasting champagne even more interesting. Bordeaux is always a great city to visit with all their small wineries. Each one with it's own take on how to make the perfect bottle.

The SmoothRed app is great. It made for a great location to share pictures and follow along with the agenda. I would recommend them again.

We went on a long weekend trip to Reims to celebrate my birthday. The customer service and attention to detail was superb, both in the UK and when we got to France. The app is great and made the trip easy to follow with all tickets stored in one place. SmoothRed put together a tailor made trip including a special chefs tasting dinner on our first evening, and a private tour of independent champagne houses on the Saturday. We asked so many questions that the tour finished an hour later than scheduled but there was no hurrying us along or cutting the tour short. Overall it was a wonderful experience and we would not hesitate to use SmoothRed again.

SmoothRed created a seamless experience for our family of six in London and Paris. From lovely hotels, excellent restaurants and attentive, informed guides to providing comfortable transportation to memorable sites and sights, this company covered all professionally and personally. I highly recommend SmoothRed!

Marieke was very helpful and creative in working with us to plan our trip!

What a fabulous trip to Burgundy!
As a party of 6, (which it turns out is the perfect number to share a bottle), we enjoyed the most informative and interesting wine tours, in places we would never have known about or ever been able to find ourselves!!
On the final day we tasted in excess of 20 wines which were all of outstanding quality - Chassagne Montrachet Premier Cru etc.
We all agreed the tour guides were exceptional, and the cost of the weekend probably covered the wine.
We will be booking a Bordeaux trip in 2023!

Amazing bespoke trip, couldn't have been easier or stress free. Amazing experience from start to finish.

SmoothRed did a wonderful job making sure they understood what we wanted from our trip and arranging great tours, activities and accommodations. We had such an awesome trip and appreciated that they were very responsive when we asked questions while traveling. The SmoothRed app was great with links for our tickets, hotels, activities, directions, etc.

SmoothRed arranged a spectacular itinerary for us on our European adventure of France and Spain. From photographers to fashion designers to wine tours, this experience was one for the books. We will be using SmoothRed next year for our next tour.

Returned from a fabulous wine tasting weekend in Bordeaux. The organisation, communication, and attention to detail were excellent. Choice of hotels, restaurants, wine tasting experience were perfect for us. Itinerary and maps on the SmoothRed app were extremely useful. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and helping to make this a memorable experience. Would recommend SmoothRed and will use again.

Can't say enough good things about Smooth Red. Fabulous trip to Lisbon and Porto Portugal. Delightful guides were friendly and very knowledgeable. We had a perfect blend of organized tours and free time. Truly a once in a lifetime experience although we intend to do it again. Highly recommend.

Simply the Best .
Cannot be beaten in terms of customer service and positivity .
Every detail taken care of and all we do is turn up and have the time of our lives . Smiles and happiness and amazing wines and amazing stories and amazing experiences . Bring on more great times ahead . 😂🤣😂🤣😂❤️❤️

SmoothRed provided exceptional vacation planning! Contact with them was easy and efficient. SmoothRed organized great experiences using knowledgeable local guides and reliable transportation. They have a very handy app that we were able to access our itinerary, tickets, passes, maps as well as provided 24 hour contact number. It was nice to enjoy our trip and not have to worry about stressful details! We will use them for our next trip!

Our trip was lovely. Giverny was beyond words. And so were the 2 castles we went to which means next time we’ll be putting Versailles on our agenda.
The scenery everywhere was spectacular. The trip was quite memorable.
The guides (we are in love with Thomas (who is about our daughter’s age) who did the first 4 tours in particular) were excellent.
The app worked very well (except for that day of phone issues). Our favorite hotel was Les Trésorières-wow! It was so pretty, comfortable and well situated.
Many thanks for your help and prompt responses when we needed you.

A well planned and organised trip - everything happened exactly as expected, the guides were first class and the hotel a great location. The only thing I would have changed would be to base the trip in Siena not Florence to reduce travelling times to the wineries and allow time to see other Tuscan sights, eg San Gimignano. Florence could then be done as a day trip.

SmoothRed was incredible to work with and planned the perfect 10 day to trip to France for us. Every thing they arranged from tours to restaurants to accommodations was outstanding. Their level of customer service, knowledge and professionalism could not have been better.
I highly recommend SmoothRed to anyone planning a trip abroad and will use them again in the future.

We booked a 4 day wine tasting trip to Avignon and Cannes back in 2019 but due to the pandemic, this was postponed on 3 occasions. Every time the contact with Smooth Red team was great and they kept us informed every step of the way. Initially we'd asked to go by train which was more convenient, but due to Ebbsfleet stopping the Eurostar in 2020, we asked fairly last minute to transfer to flights from Gatwick and this was organised within a couple of hours. Everything about the trip was first class from the transfers to the personalised wine day at Chateauneuf du Pape with our guide Eric and then the 2 days in Cannes and the boat trip to Ile de Honorat and the organised lunch. A great selection of hotels, and lovely to have some time to ourselves too to explore. The hotel in Avignon was right in the heart of the town and the Smooth Red app was fantastic to keep us updated on everything each day including the delays to our return flight (due to French air strike). We would highly recommend Smooth Red for anyone looking for a special personalised trip and will definitely be using them again.

I wanted to arrange a once in a lifetime wine tasting tour of Bordeaux for my husband’s 80th Birthday.
I chose SmoothRed from the internet and they organised an amazing trip which we couldn’t fault.
The hotel de Seze was fabulous and in the heart of Bordeaux with loads to see and great restaurants yards from the door. The staff were very welcoming and the food was excellent.
Our chauffeurs from and to the airport were really friendly and knowledgable and Xavier our private guide filled in the gaps. They were all happy to answer any questions and took us on a lovely scenic drive through St Emilion.
The Chateaux were amazing, the wine tastings all different ranging from huge to small, family run and everyone was very welcoming.
We are already trying to decide which SmoothRed tour to do next! Thank you so much for making it so easy and pain free.

I’ve recently returned from a private champagne tour in France together with my wife who the trip was organised for a special birthday.
Let me continue by explaining that normally this is something that my wife (who is also known as my PA) would organise.
Also as being the most suspicious and distrusting person, this side of Niagara Falls, I was somewhat nervous in contacting anyone outside of my family for help.
I found SmoothRed from the Internet and like this review felt reassured that it would be a sound decision contacting them.
To be honest, having finished our tour, I think they should now change their emblem to an image of Mary Poppins as from experience I can 100% state that they are practically perfect in every way!
They always listened to any questions I had, discussed various parts and were always on hand to help make this wonderful present even more special.
My family and I are going through very difficult personal issues at this very moment regarding our home. SmoothRed we’re aware of this and went above the call of duty to ensure that we had an even more lovely experience, they upgraded parts of the tour and even arranged for gifts to be given to my wife which helped distract her from things at home.
I cannot express what this company provided for us and without any hesitation would go to them again to sort another holiday.
Everyone whom I’ve discussed our champagne tour with have been impressed.
The person who organised our tour actually feels like a old friend rather than myself being his client.
I am not a person that would normally leave a review however I had already made my decision to do so while walking around Paris on our final day as I felt it was too important to miss!
They say the only pain in your life should be champagne, please make life a little easier and contact this company.
Many regards, Andy
