It Was a Vacation to Cherish
For our first time in Scotland (second time booking through Across the Pond Vacations as our tour operator), Across the Pond took us to the highlights in Edinburgh and ensured that we covered all of the best places, including the hotel! Having the trip organized by Across the Pond Vacations made it so easy to […]
We Had a Fablulous Time
This was our second trip with Across the Pond Vacations. Across the Pond, and especially Anne Marie, took care of every detail from arrival to departure. The London Pass is an extraordinary bargain and we took full advantage of it. The three escorted group day tours booked for us were very professional with friendly guides. […]
Everything We Imagined and More!
This trip was everything we imagined, and more! Everything was a highlight! It was so reassuring, before the trip, that everything was planned and arranged in advance. We were pleasantly surprised at every turn. Everything went smoothly and we had no need to change anything on the itinerary. The trip covered so many great locations, […]
Great Locations, Fun Activities, Spot-on Recommendations

Anne Marie did a terrific job of understanding what we liked and custom-tailored a trip that exceeded our expectations! ~ Tim and Leslie B., Ashburn, VA Scottish B&B Vacation Packages | […]
Well Done!
Across the Pond Vacations did an outstanding job of designing the trip, combining our input and their suggestions. There were no glitches in anything that was pre-scheduled. (In some cases, we just mentioned our name and thanks to Across the Pond Vacations, they already knew who we were.) Well done! ~ Fred and Linda M., […]
We Would Certainly Use ATPV Again
This was a pre-cruise trip for us. Everything went exceedingly well! All the B&B’s, hotels, car rental, train travel, etc. went smoothly and everything was very nice. If we ever return to the British Isles, we would certainly use Across the Pond Vacations again and recommend you to friends and family. Thank you for making […]
We Cannot Wait to Make it “Across the Pond” Again!
Across the Pond Vacations was great, from start to finish! I applaud Anne Marie for squeezing in all of my requests (and there were a lot!). We had an amazing time. Afternoon Tea at Fortnum & Mason’s in London was wonderful. Our Falconry Experience at Dalhousie Castle was so much fun! and, we fell in […]
What’s in a Name? Funny British City Names
The average American calls to mind a certain image when hearing the word “Britain”: London taxicabs, butlers serving the elite in oak-paneled mansions, afternoon tea (pinkies extended) with scones and clotted cream. Generally, in our “Yankee” minds, the idea tends to be one of dignity, class, and grace. May we be permitted to add another […]
