Past Trip Reviews

“This was my first trip with Beatrice Bradley and for anyone who is thinking about any of the trips, just do it! From the minute we were picked up at the airport, we were totally immersed in the adventure of meeting new people and seeing new sights. Shayne & Christy were supportive, entertaining and totally considerate of each of us. The accommodations, food and itinerary were top notch. I’m already planning my next trip and really looking forward to it.” –Donna

“Experiencing a place I had not been to before. Along with getting to know other individuals from other part of the United States.” –Lynn

“I loved it all, the drive there, the house, the gals, the hosts, the city of Gburg, and the drive home. My first trip with the group. It was such a great experience. The hosts try to ensure everyone’s expectations are met. I’ll be traveling with this group again.” – Karen

Role of a Beatrice bradley hostess

Beatrice Bradley is an Experience Company not a Tour Company.  The role of a Beatrice Bradley Host is to be warm and welcoming. To relate and connect. To have attention to details. And to manage the behind-the-scenes magic so your experience is one-of-a-kind. They are not local experts nor are they tour guides. We hire local experts, guides, and historians as each location warrants. They are expert hosts and manage the camaraderie and logistics of the experience. Our goal is that your hostess will make you feel welcomed, comfortable, and that you will walk away with new & lasting friendships made during an unforgettable experience.
