"Great job! I would follow LALA anywhere!!!"

"Did not think we could top last year's trip to London/Paris, but the trip to Rome/Florence/Venice was spectacular. Let alone the work and staff at Go Ahead were excellent and the venue of Italy was awe inspiring, but our travel group was one of the best groupings I have ever been associated with. I look forward to our next excursion with Go Ahead next year!"
"We have been very pleased with Go Ahead Tours. We have been on numerous tours with them and have always been treated with professionalism. There staff is friendly and always willing to do the extra mile for us. We look forward to their brochures and email for any new exciting place to check off our bucket list of travel.
The staff is always ready to assist you in your decision making to ensure you have the best experience while on tour.
Their tour directors have always been exceptionally good. They make the tours not seem like tours, but family traveling together.
We can recommend Go Ahead Tours to anyone looking for a less stressful travel adventure.
As we would say in the Marine Corps, a Bravo Zulu to all their staff for a job well done."
"GoAhead Tours is undoubtedly an excellent company; however, associates and affiliates can influence customer satisfaction. The tour was satisfactory once started. The tour director was very good. The tour guides were very good.
My dissatisfaction with this tour stems from the fact that after being awake for >24 hours due to airline delays, and, in spite of making international calls to coordinate airport transport, we were left stranded at the airport, had to take a taxi, and arrived at the hotel after 1 am. The company failed us miserably! The GoAhead representative informed me that I had to call the shuttle company myself, I did after finding the number and again making an international call. The shuttle company had no idea what I was talking about, said they would check and never called back. Meanwhile, the tour director was informing us that the shuttle driver would be there any minute. Although reimbursed for the £95 paid for the taxi, the stress of waiting in excess of 3 hours in a strange country was unwarranted. In addition, GoAhead tours has never reached out to apologize or follow up with an explanation. Additionally, the tour director informed us that since we missed the welcome dinner we should get something to eat on the way? An impossible feat! We were also told that the hotel (they prepared the welcome dinner) could not accommodate us by providing a sandwich in lieu of the meal. A very rocky start to a vacation that could have been a dream. Upon departure, we found that this had also happened to a party of 3, they were als stranded at the airport for over 4 hours. This was it an isolated incident. GoAhead works if all goes well; if something goes wrong you're essentially on you own in a foreign country. Not a good business practice. I am still awaiting an explanation from GoAhead."
"It was my first time visiting Europe. I can say that it was a fantastic trip, a learning experience. It helped that we had a fantastic tour guide for the whole trip. His name is Marcellous. It's a fast pace tour, but you get to see so many cities, and beautiful architectures. I would recommend anyone to make arrangements with Go Ahead Tours. They make all reservations for you, including hotels, lunches, dinners and outings. Would do it again in a heartbeat"
"Since 2012 we've taken two Go Ahead tours and both have been unbelievable. We truly love the fact that half the time is planned tours and the other half is free time to get lost in the experience. Every detail has been carried out extremely well. We couldn't be happier with a tour company! "
"Traveling through Europe on the Grand Tour with Go Ahead Tours was an absolute pleasure - having the guide ensured we were able to make the most of the trip without any concerns about language, fair prices for merchandise, recommendations for restaurants, and ways to spend the free time. It was a vacation we'll never forget!"
"We love to Travel with Go Ahead Tours. They are very reliable. The Hotels the choose are Great. The Tour Directors are very knowledgeable and pleasant And the places we visited are the one we really have the most interest. We are planning to use them again."
"It was an awesome experience. Our tour guide, Rebecca was amazing. It is said that she will no longer be with you all. She went beyond to help the whole group.

"Great experience! I took my grand daughter and daughter for my grand daughters high school graduation trip. Nice to stay in the same place for a few nights rather than pack up each night. Karen was a wonderful guide with great suggestions for us to do on our free time! Go Ahead Tours will be our "go to" tour company from now on!

"Had a great tour. I traveled solo and had a great time. There was plenty of opportunity to do things in a group and plenty of free time to either go at things alone or buddy up with another traveler. I really enjoyed my freedom. I hate missing anything while on vacation so I go from morning until midnight. Having free time to go at my own breakneck speed was really appreciated. Our director Rebecca was fabulous and gave good direction and advice (too bad it was her last ! ) The tour guides were colorful and fun too. An all around good experience, thinking of doing another in 2016.
Thanks Go Ahead"
"I have been on three very different Go Ahead Tours (1) London, Paris and Amsterdam; (2) Peru; and (3) Germany, Switzerland and Austria. I traveled solo on each of the tours. My travel guides were very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. They made every effort to ensure that the group had an awesome experience. My travel companions were a fun group of people with very interesting backgrounds. The size of the groups were very reasonable and always included two or three other people who were also traveling solo. I plan to go on many more Go Ahead Tours in the future. "
"I recently used Go Ahead Tours for a trip to Barcelona, Southern France, the Italian Riviera, Florence and Rome. The trip was well planned, although an extra day in Florence and Rome would have been preferable. The optional tours were well planned and worth the cost. My biggest problem with Go Ahead was with an unfortunate experience I had in Rome. My room had bed bugs. When I realized it was bed bug bites and not mosquito bites the damage was already done.
Go Ahead to get the hotel to refund the $200 cost of the room, which they sent to me. I did ask them to reimburse me for the cost of the bed clothes and other items I left behind in fear of packing bugs in my suitcase, and the cost of creams for the bites and spray to disinfect my luggage. Go Ahead chose not to reimburse me the $100, even though I spent $17,000 to take my three nieces on the trip. I explained to them that $100 was a very small amount for them considering the cost of the trip, yet they decided they would not do so.
I suffered for a week with bug bites all over my arms, legs and back. I understand that Go Ahead was not the cause of the problem, but if they expect customer loyalty they should be a bit more accommodating to people who utilize their services. I did not ask for reimbursement for the suffering I went through, merely reimbursement for the actual cost to me.
So, although their tours are okay, their customer service is lacking."
"Loved my trip to Italy and Spain, the tour guide in Italy was fantastic, I highly recommended going with Go Ahead Tours because you will see far more the way they have it set up then on your own if its your first time there. We will be planning another trip with then to Greece. "
