Finding the right balance between old favourites and new
holidays is not easy. I think we have it about right with some
really exciting new holidays. We have improved our existing
holidays and you will notice that we are including more and
more in the price, making our holidays even better value
for money. All in all, I think this brochure really does have a
holiday for everyone.
Established in 1926 we are an independent family
company providing coach holidays, private hire and day
excursions. The company is still in the hands of the family
who have run the business for almost ninety years.
When a tour returns we always go vigorously through our
satisfaction sheets and once again our driver/couriers who
have been with us for many years have scored extremely
high. We do believe we have a team of drivers who are
second to none and will do all in their powers to make
each tour interesting and a great success.
We don’t think in terms of groups, our clients are individuals
who travel together for the benefits of group travel without
the pitfalls. We provide the best holidays we can, and you
bring yourselves, time after time, creating a warm and
friendly atmosphere, which makes joining one of our
holidays a pleasure. Together we make a great team.
Finally I would like to say a big thank you to all our clients
who help to give us the confidence to introduce these
new tours. And hope that through next year you find both
our new and old destinations are as always giving an
enjoyable, good value for money holiday.
Everyone here at Maxfields, Drivers, Couriers and booking
staff do hope you all have a good holiday in 2016.
