High Point Holidays and Randonnees Outre-Manche

Since taking our first booking in 2007, High Point Holidays has grown from small beginnings in the Beaujolais region of France to cover active holidays across the UK France, and elsewhere in Europe.

We specialise in active holidays including hiking and cycling trips, mainly self-guided, where travellers immerse themselves in the local way of life, through our careful choice of accommodation, location, and routes.

We are a truly independent tour operator; not part of a large company. The majority of our holidays are set up or created by us based on our principles, so we have full control of all aspects of the trip from the choice of the guest house and transfers to the smaller key details.

The philosophy of the company has been clear from the beginning; to provide good quality, active holidays with a commitment to personal and flexible service. We create unique walking holidays with authentic local experiences.

We are here to help you every step of the way. You can contact us always, before, during and after your holiday, to ensure your satisfaction.

PLEASE NOTE: all of experiences and activities are subject to availability at the time of booking.

High Point Holidays and Randonnees Outre-Manche is part of the following groups: France Travel Agents, Ireland Travel Agents, Italy Travel Agents

There were several bumps in the road during our 2 week trip. We tried communicating with Marianna but she was slow to respond and in general her responses were not helpful.
I am now in the process of planning another trip to Italy with our 15 year old grandson. Initially I was not going to use KimKim because of our recent experience, but our trip to Ireland with Stephen was so positive, I am willing to try again.
We have not heard from KimKim which is to issue us a rebate for one full day that was totally messed up and we were unable to participate in any of the activities. There was also a booking that was so stressful and dangerous to all 4 of us. It was totally inappropriate for the demographics of our group, being on the top floor of a walk up with a steep and slippery staircase that we avoided going to our room unless absolutely necessary. Marianna's lack of responsiveness added to the stress.

Hi Ellen,
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your review. I'm so sorry to hear this impression of me as it is not representative of me as a person or agent, and it has been my intention to offer you the best travel experience during the entire course of our time together.

When you requested to speak with me whilst you were travelling, I was very happy to make time for a chat despite it being out of working hours and having a dedicated emergency team available to you 24-7 as I wanted to personally make sure you were ok and do my best to rectify any issues brought up. During this conversation, you mentioned how happy you were with the overall trip and the activities we had arranged, so I have to admit that I was a little surprised by your comments, particularly regarding our communication and support. We take responsiveness and client support very seriously, and I am sorry if you did not feel this was reflected in your experience.

I completely understand that the situation with Ai Lumi B&B was disappointing. We did our very best to help out in the moment and find a solution, and also offered two bottles of Prosecco as a gesture of goodwill. While I appreciate that this may not have completely made up for the inconvenience, we genuinely tried to turn the situation around and ensure you still enjoyed your trip.

Seeing the 4- and 5-star ratings you gave to the various experiences throughout your trip, I had hoped that the overall impression would have been a more positive one. Nevertheless, I respect your feedback and will certainly take it into consideration.

I'm glad to hear that you would consider working with Kimkim again for a future trip, and I sincerely hope you'll have an even better experience next time.

All the best,
Marianna

We had a great time in London. The people at the Georgian House Hotel were very informative. When we arrived in London, we were quite confused how to travel around the city. The representatives at the hotel were understanding and told us about the app for the city which included the underground transportation. We had no problems after that finding our way around. The breakfast was outstanding and the room was just what we expected, a lot of steps to get to your room and breakfast. The breakfast was always cooked to order.
We missed the changing of the guards because of weather, rainy and wet.
The Thames River Dinner Cruise was good but would have liked a lunch cruise because it was our first day in London and would have liked to see the city and not just the lights. The meal was excellent though.

Tea at the Savoy was wonderful. We enjoyed the atmosphere, the staff and the food.
The food tour was informative, with tasty food.
We visited the Tower of London, to see the crown jewels. Beautiful with so much history.
The Hop-on Hop-off Bus was fun. The headphones on the bus were unexpected and a joy while riding around the city.

On to Edinburgh: Let me address the hotel first of all. It was smallest room I have ever been in, No where to put your suitcase except on the floor. Then you had to pick it up and put it on the bed every time you need something. The hotel staff was very helpful and they had a lift, no stairs. No water in your room. Nice hotel but no accommodations.

Jacobite train was a long day. We spend about 4 hours on the train verses 3 hours on the bus to get to the train and 6 hours to get back to Edinburgh after the train ride. Even though the country is beautiful it was not my ideal day.
Sarah our food and drink tour guide was wonderful. Filled us with just the right meal and the drink to go with it.

We went to see the Jacksonville Jaguar play and it turned in to so much more. Loved out trip, The private transportation to and from the hotels was a wonderful thing for a new person in a strange city.

Hi Patricia,

I'm sorry the rain got in the way of the Changing of the Guard, and I take your point about the Thames cruise. A lunch cruise on your first day would have let you see the city properly, and I'll suggest that to future travellers who arrive in the daytime.

Thank you too for the honest notes on Edinburgh. A room with nowhere to put your suitcase and no water isn't what I want for my travellers, and I'll look at the room sizes more closely next time. The Jacobite day is a long one, and I'm sorry it was more than you hoped for. It's good to know that for others.

And I loved hearing that the Jaguars game turned into so much more. It was a pleasure planning this trip with you, and I hope we can do it again.

We had a great trip. Our drivers from the airport to various areas around the country were timely and nice. Some quieter than others. Our best driver was Gerry who drove us to the Cliffs of Moher. He was so delightful. We loved interacting with him. A lot of laughs.
The hotels in Dublin and Belfast had wonderful bellman and staff. When we were in Galway we would have preferred a different hotel. It was nice but not quite up to the Grafton Hotel and the Grand Central Hotel . All the tours arranged were fun and entertaining. I’m hoping to return one day to see Southern Ireland.
