We just got hack from the trip called Highlights of Italy and wanted to let you know that it was a wonderful trip that we will always remember our time in Italy. Also, that Michael and the drivers - Mick & Dave took very good care of us. I would really like to get a price list of this and your other trips so we can maybe take another trip next year. And I can tell my friends about your trips.
Thanks again
Mrs. Brown Dear Sir/Madam

I write to express my heartfelt delight and gratitude for a memorable holiday earlier this month. It was unforgetable, a chance in a lifetime, and I'm sure everybody who's travelled has have similar sentiments
I remain,
Ms. Cable Dear Madam,

Thank you for your letter, but i have been on one of your tours this year, I just got back from the Italian Highlights tour, it was very good and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Yours sincerely,
Mr. Grey Dear Sir/Madam

Thank you so much for aranging our wonderful Italian Highlights Holiday, 27th Spet. - Oct 5th. It was brillant, and our lovely tour guide Michaéle was sensitive, knowledgable and a real credit to you company. We will certainly be interested in future holidays by your company. We thought at first that it was a huge risk to subscribe to your tours. Now I feel that it is a real savings on a wonderful holiday...
Yours sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs. Fuller Dear Sir/Madam

My partner and I have recently returned from the italian highlights holiday. We had a fantastic time with Pete Kev & Mel and thought the hotel was in a beautiful location and very welcoming. We will be booking more holidays with you in the future.
Ms. Morris & Mr. Higgs Dear Sir/Madam

I have just returned from Italy and I am writing to thank you for a wonderful holiday. The hotel was superb and the outings were enjoyable. The drivers were friendly and knowledgeable but most of all our "Trolley Dolly" Melena was tireless, efficient and extremely charming. Again many thanks.
Yours faithfully
Ms. Doughlin
