This was the best trip we made on the Crown Princess - it was a good price (much less expensive than ship) and we saw lots of things that would have been impossible on larger tour. Peter was exceptional and 'made' the tour! I had to 'look' to find the answer to Peter's story about the five black crosses.

The group I was touring with and myself, had a great time with Vera, showing us around Liverpool and other sights. I enjoyed going to Chester and the Cathederals and then the Beatles museum shop.
We were even taken to an out of the way pub for a great local lunch and a tour of a radio station(one of our men was a former,local, radio personality)!
I would recommend the Busy Bus to anyone!
A job well done!
Thanks for a great day!

Crown Princess, Liverpool Excursion - 27 June 2010
I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our day with Busybus.
All 6 of us agree it was one of the best days of our cruise. If we are ever in the Liverpool area again we will certainly be in touch, and we will also recommend your tours to others.
Thanks for helping to make our vacation even better!

Dear Peter and everyone at BusyBus,
I wanted to say a huge thank you on behalf of everyone here at Pearl & Dean for all your help this weekend while we did the 3 Peak Challenge. I can honestly say the challenge was the most gruelling experience but was made much more comfortable and enjoyable as a result of your fantastic driving and generally looking after us. We couldn't have done it without you. I can't imagine the state we left your minibuses at the end!
I also wanted to say thank you for picking up my parents! It was wonderful to see them at the end of the track at Snowdon and I know they are so pleased to have seen us all at the end. Quite an emotional moment.
Thanks once again and I am sure that if anyone we know wants to do the 3 Peaks (I'm not sure anyone here can face it again!!) we will be sure to recommend you.
Take care,
Zoe

Hi All, Just wanted to say thanks so much for all your help this year! It has been another phenomenal year for the school excursion programme and we certainly couldn’t have achieved this without you!
Thanks for all your efforts on behalf of the school, particular highlights must be Edinburgh, London and the North Wales and Lake District one-day trips!
I look forward to working with you all in the new year and I wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Best regards

We took the North Wales Adventure Tour and Peter ensured the trip was the highlight of our stay in Chester. Peter kept everyone enthralled with his stories and knowledge of the places we visited. The scenery of Snowdonia together with Conwy Castle and the unpronouncable Aqueduct were breathtaking. I would like to thank Peter and everyone at Busybus for ensuring my wife, son and I had a really lovely and unforgetable day in Wales.

I have a few comments to make that you might find useful - you see I'm originally from North Wales and still have friends and family there. My uncle used to drive us over much of the territory covered by your North Wales Adventure. Our hope in taking this trip was to introduce our German friend to the area. As to comfort and polite escort there was no problem.
However, as I do know the area I was surprised at the omissions in his information. Unless I missed his introduction to the tourists from the cruise ship - he did not describe Wales as a principality or why the English monarch's son is the "Prince of Wales"; nor was a complete explanation of the Eistedfodd as a bardic competition provided (an important part of Welsh culture and tradition)or the lack of nails in Bodelwyddan Marble Church mentioned and its Canadian connection explained. I guess one could say I didn't find enough meat in his delivery - there are many websites that have good information such as http://www.britannia.com/wales which has some unusual facts as well as other information.
Also, we were disappointed that more of the countryside off the A55 was not explored and the points of interest mentioned in your website not visited - time better spent than walking across the Pontyscyllte Aqueduct.
We also felt that in a way we were shortchanged as we arrived back in Chester to provide time for the cruise people to explore - a fact that was not made apparent until we arrived an hour earlier than we expected. Also,the two long silences could have been filled with pertinent facts or a CD of Welsh Male Voice Choirs - better to mention this positive outcome of the mines than the slag heaps!!
I'm sorry if this seems very negative but I felt that you would want to know how your trip is perceived by someone who knows the area.

Our group has been quiet but this doesn't mean not interested in the trip, remember it!!
I hope to enjoy myself again with you and the Busybus: now I know why you decide to change your life and become the Busybus Manager!! Congratulation for your choice and your work, I saw that you love what you do, and this is a very important thing.
I hope to see you again,

Hey Sweet, Chubby and loveable Peter, (This is how you introduced yourself to us). Felt like thanking you for providing us one of the wonderful times during our visit to North Wales on 6th April, 2008. As people rightly say, time flew fast when you have fun with the people. It's true!!!!
The trip has gone in a flash with lots of pleasant memories left behind us (I was about to shout Black sheep port, when I was on train to Crewe). We loved everything about the tour and wished it was longer. It didn't take much time to get in flow of yours but once we're in, the fun begins. There is so much to write about you and the trip and I better do?
No escape:
Firstly, I love people who do their job with passion and you are one among them. It's not only the service we liked; we loved your attitude, amicable character, creative ideas, the care you showed on all of us?and not to forget the information you have provided?sometimes we felt like being in a History class too? To put it in a nut shell? u r a rocking dude?. We thought your service was most efficient, safe and comfortable. We would not hesitate to use your services again. Keep going!!!
You know what? We got it right out of the 2 stories? I got 2 coupons for finding the Black sheep and getting the name of Anthony Hopkins? I loved your ideas and you made people enjoy the time with you? We became kids in answering all the questions you asked during the end of the tour and you gave us the name 'Sweet Ass' and I loved it? I felt as though I wasn't on a 'coach tour' but rather a day out with good friends.
We wish you great success in your venture. Looking forward for another trip in wonderful Busybus?and will be on board soon!

Hi Fred.
Arrived home safely after having a fantastic cruise. The weather was great the entire trip. I just wanted to thank you for providing us with a great tour of Wales. Your son (Peter) did an outstanding job in showing us the sites and is a real delight & of course I know where he got it from. Again Fred, thank you so much. It was a real pleasure working with you again. I was so happy that we got to tender in this time unlike the Princess cruise of 2005. Wales is beautiful. Hope to visit again.

I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful time in Holyhead, Wales with Bob. He is very funny! We really enjoyed the entire day, and especially the countryside of Wales.
The trip through the countryside with the stop to let us walk the hills and get up close and personal with the flora and heather and rocks was special. The Wales countryside is beautiful. The stops at Caernarfon Castle and Conwy Castle allowed enough time to explore without feeling like we were just rushing off to the next spot. Thanks so much for all your help in putting together our group of 12. This excursion was a real highlight of our trip.
Also, I just thought I would share a couple of photo's I took. I also wrote a review of our entire trip and posted to Cruise Critic, Ports of Call board.

Hi Peter! You sure are one person who deserves an e-mail of Thank You for making the whole experience with both the recent groups you escorted such a wonderful one! I really appreciate the way you were accommodative and went out of your way to make everyone comfortable, not to forget your experience in filming and your coach, that is just right for film crews and helped a lot in making the filming convenient. You were missed by the crew throughout the remaining part of the trip.
I have been asked by everyone to convey their thanks to you. You honestly are such a gem of a person and everyone just adored you! But then, I think more than anything, it’s the person you are! You just can’t help being good.
But there is one complaint though, you set such high standard it was difficult for others to follow!!

Hello! I have just spent a wonderful holiday in Chester and want to thank you for the truly excellent service BusyBus provided. I used the Big House service to go to the RHS Show at Tatton Park on Sunday 22nd, and the Hidden Gardens Tour on Wednesday 25th July.
I cannot adequately express how special your guides and drivers are. They are such delightful caring people, they made my holiday very special since without them and the excellent service they provide, I couldn't have seen as much as I did.
I hope to come back to Chester and do even more tours with BusyBus. You've all made my holiday one to remember and I cannot thank you enough. You provide a very valuable service and I hope that you will be able to go on doing so.

I just wanted to let you know that our party thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Wales. As advertised, you took us to places the tour busses don't go. I understand that some of the passengers were given a later time to meet than us, took a later tender, got caught in port traffic and they're late arrival delayed our departure.
Our only disappointment was missing the town with the longest name in the UK when our driver got lost. Overall it was a most enjoyable tour and I will be giving your business card to my travel agent for his clients traveling to Wales.

All my students and colleagues have nothing but good words to say. I think the fact that the kids didn't want to leave (they had been crying all Sunday night) suggests that you too did an excellent job.
Last but not least, I would like to thank you for all your help and kindness. I hope we have the chance to work together in the future. Till then, Warm regards.

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you all on behalf of Amber, Catherine and all us girls. The day and night we had on Saturday truly exceeded all our expectations. Every little detail from the chocolate making activity to the music quiz, Catherine's CD, the ghost tour and even the standard of the actual minibus was absolutely outstanding. All the girls had such a good time and at breakfast on Sunday morning it was all anyone could talk about - how fun, original and unique the day had been. I would definitely recommend a similar hen tour package to any girls looking for something different and I am more than happy for you to quote me on that! I know that you all put a lot of work into the day, especially Claire, (not forgetting Peter's riddle and DJ mixing skills!) and I can see now why you've won tourism awards. I think you should put this tour as a hen weekend package on your website because you would definitely get a lot of bookings.Anyway, back to trying to do some work - just seen the photos too - very funny! Big thank you and best wishes to you all. Liz x

First, I'd like to thank the guides who were really nice and particularly Peter who seem to have such a personality. Thanks as well for the pictures. This is a really good idea. Thanks again for this memorable trip. The small French girl.

Dear Sir/ Madam, we had such a great trip on 16th July'05into North Wales and PETER made it so memorable. He is having so much knowledge about the area and was very entertaining. I would highly recommend the North Wales tour to anyone visiting to Chester or near by. This tour is a true full day adventure for everyone. I still remember the day we were searching for BLACK sheep.
This the best ever tour I have been on!

We had such a neat trip on April 30 into North Wales and Peter made the trip. He was so knowledgeable about the area and was very entertaining. He kept everyone smiling and did so many extra nice things for us. I do wish he'd do something about his photography - or maybe it was just an overweight grandmother. We did enjoy both Wales and the Big House trip on Sunday. Thanks!!

Sorry that I'm sending my feedback so late. I've had rather busy roster lately. I just would like to join the words of admiration and gratitude of the other BusyBus's customers. I had a pleasure to do a North Wales full day bus trip on the 7th of May. It was really one of the best I've ever done in my life. This travel agency goes beyond the expectations of its clients. I can't help praising a perfect organisation, a very warm and friendly attitude to the participants of this trip, a professionalism and a competence of BusyBus's staff and a very nice suitable welsh folk music in background.
A breathtaking and quaint beauty of Snowdonia's landscapes made me addict. So when I have a Chester weekend next time, I'll go there again of course with BusyBus. I also recommend all my colleagues joining this trip.
With kind regards Olga
P.S. I sincerely wish a team of BusyBus furthermore much success.

Hope to see you again in Chester or on your next visit to Liverpool or the states.

We have such wonderful memories of our tour.The day in Wales was one of the highlights of our quick trip.We really enjoyed Peter's stories and history regarding the area.I was especially excited to learn we were traveling through "middle earth" where Tolkien was inspired to write The Hobbit and racing down the narrow winding roads through the country.We are home again, but we are left with these fabulous See donated photo's here...

We would like to thank you for a great day out, though there were some who spoke too much, and those who spoke too little. I personally fell for the two wee Scottish lassies from Aberdeen, and the Welsh lass from Warrington, and of course the guy who checked the car boot sale and hadn't seen Emanuel in Faulty Towers.
I noticed you enjoyed winding us up, with you anecdotes, and of course the valuable prizes, which you dished out in such a liberal fashion.
We would have loved to traipse about the wonderful Conway Castle, but the lure of the fresh fish and chips, which our guide had mentioned in passing didn't leave enough time for us to gallup up the crumbling steps of the towers.
The Llangollan stop was memorable as well, as I was accosted by a lady looking for lost souls or sinners. She admitted she was a sinner herself, but trying to be a gentleman, didn't press her for details.

Thanks Peter, you are a knowledgeable, witty and entertaining guide. True, the bus-tourists that day should know more about Wales and Welshmen after the trip. Don?t forget the Welsh rugby hall-of-fame though - there were many world-class Welsh players 50 years ago, and Wales even beat the All Blacks at Cardiff Arms Park by 13-8 in 1953!
I can only suggest one improvement to the trip. Play a tape of Shirley Bassey, Tom Jones or Bryn Terfel and NOT the Welsh Male Choir on the road to Llangollen! They seemed in need of several pints of Hardy & Hansons!!

Comments:
The tour was worth every minute, including every minute spent on the bus. It was almost physically painful to have the tour ended. The tour was well-organized and scheduled perfectly. Actually, what you see on the BUSYBUS site is what you get with Peter as a guide (that is, breathtaking views, castles, towns, tints of green, sheep-looking creatures, and water from a distance, from above, or just all around).
Wales-related stories and miscellaneous comments that Peter made along the road triggered brain activity and were flavored with significant portion of English and universal humor. In addition, Peter seems to have mastered his skills of driving on the WRONG side of the road.

Peter was extremely helpful and a pleasure to be with for the day, driving us to every nook and cranny of North Wales and pointing out every piece of history there was to be known. He is an asset to your company and we will most definitely be using the tour service again in the future.
Once again our heartfelt thanks to Peter and all concerned. We will see you again!!!

Thanks for the two fun and interesting tours (North Wales and Cheshire). The three of us loved them. You were very helpful in Chester and beforehand. Also your suggestion that we stay on the Busybus and go to Manchester Airport worked out very well for us.
We all enjoyed the luncheon on the Cheshire tour and meeting Mrs. Fred. Your Website pictures are good too and a great idea.
You were, indeed, a great "Web find".

I must say that Saturday was the best day that Joann and I have had while here in England and, believe me, we have been here for what seems like too long!
But anyway, your tour has definitely topped our list and that is why we will be returning and seeing all the sights again....Hopefully we won't have as much rain and we just might see some more sunshine.
Hey I heard those beers were lovely....I am glad that you enjoyed them! Maybe if the next tour is just as good you can have some more...hahaha

Since the tour I kept having Busybus on my mind. However, it is one of our best memories of our entire UK holidays. Our Busybus experience was unforgettable, we had lots of fun and enjoyed every bit of the trip.
I am sending four of the "Kodak moments" taken during our trip with you. Yes, I included one with myself winning the "Catch Phrase" contest at Grand Hotel.
Another highlight of was the "aftermath" at Chester Races. Gee! We had great fun with all the team and really enjoyed your company. From the bet that I won after your "hot tip", I got back to the hotel with our tickets paid for, beers covered and an extra ?10 in my pocket at the end of the day! Oh yes, I liked it at the Races!
I still remember the contests we had during the time spent on the bus, like famous Welsh people. Oh the fun we had when after mentioning Dylan Thomas, Anthony Hopkins and Catherine Zeta Jones, I came up with Ian Rush!
Finally, I highly recommend the Busybus tour to everyone visiting Chester for a day or more. Do it and you'll have the highlight of your holiday. Peter can, and will, make your day. He is lots of fun and accommodating whatever your requests along the way may be. He did so with us, when we wanted to find a street that meant much to us, in Llandudno. He just found some time and took the two of us and found the street bearing the name of a Romanian queen (see the photo).
If we'll ever come back to England, Busybus would be at the top of our list to do.

Hello Peter, Howard, and Fred! My daughter, Mary, and I want to thank you for the wonderful day tour of Northern Wales. We loved everything about the tour and wished it was longer. In particular, Fairy Glenn was most exciting and enchanting. We loved Conwy, even with its crafty seagulls. The scenery everywhere in Wales was truly magnificent. Wales is truly a beautiful place. We will be coming back to Chester and Wales on our next trip to England, and will definitely book another Busybus tour! Thank you once again!!

I will be a regular passenger on your Busybus and can't wait to take my place on the 'meet us on busy bus' nights out...once again my thanks to you and all those concerned 'behind the scenes' as it takes a good team effort for everything to run so smoothly whilst looking so simple. Well done to all your company that will continue to thrive as the best advertising comes from word of mouth from happy customers...many blessings.
