"I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all your hard work on event. It was a great year for us (despite a few extreme weather challenges) and in all it went very well. Amazing to see so many great riders crossing the finish line and then seamlessly be taken to their destinations on time!
There were the usual challenges of late bookings, and cheeky riders requests but thank you for dealing with them so professionally and for being so accommodating. I think the booking process works really well and riders have a great service available to them."
"Just wanted to send my thanks for all your support. It was epic and went without any hitches and that was in no small part down to you and your team." Ride Across Britain Team

I just wanted to formally send a note of thanks to your staff for being incredibly helpful, efficient and professional on Sunday for Islington's booking from Dunwich to London.
It was a very smooth transit and your staff did a great job in helping to sender we had everyone on the coach. The coach itself was fantastic. Ali

"Dear E.B.E. staff, I am writing
regarding my recent journey with yourselves, on the med.
express route, outbound 14/09, returning 22/09. Having known about your company since it's beginnings,
I have always wanted to use the service, but somehow have
never managed to find the time. This year I
finally made a booking; I just wanted to say how glad I am that
I did.
The service has been superb from beginning to end. From
the office staff reserving me a place until I could confirm my
holiday
from work, through to Jason, Richard and the other
drivers (I'm sorry I don't remember their names). The service
has been faultless. Prompt pickup, great
communication, excellent standards of comfort on the coach and
excellen facilities onboard. The prospect of
24+ hours on a coach isn't what many people would find
desirable, but in this case it was a pleasure. The time passed
easily, the refreshment stops were sensible,
and the high standards of driving led to a relaxing journey.
Before even stepping off the return coach, I
have been very keen to rebook again next year, either for
another drop off trip, or maybe the fixed base
holiday. Thank you for all of your efforts,
and if you could pass on my thanks to everyone involved in
E.B.E., I would be very grateful". D.James

"We came back from Montpellier on Saturday and want to
let you know how pleased we were with the efficient and
cheerful way the crew worked to get us home
safely ahead of the projected storm. In particular Jason was
great. His good humour transformed the journey. Tireless in looking after us, always sociable,
cheerful and efficient . (we much appreciated the home cooked
meals.!)". L Farley & P Bentley (London) September
2018
"My husband and I have just returned from a 2 week
holiday, travelling with you to Lyon and returning from
Montpellier. From the booking
procedure earlier in the year to our 2 days of travelling this
month, you provided an professional and friendly
service. Jason and the team of
drivers were superb, and the car parking arrangements in
Northampton were also very efficient. Thank you
very much. We will recommend you
to our friends". M & A Pendleton (Somerset)

"Dear team at EBE,I would like to say a big thank you
to all your team for the efficient and courteous service that I
have experienced whilst booking and travelling
with your Company. Firstly, all office staff,
particularly Nicki, have been friendly, helpful and
long suffering during a year of booking,
cancelling and changing of plans. Secondly the bus
was expertly driven by all your drivers. We
felt confident and safe in their hands at all times. It
was really amazing how your time-table was so accurate.
Thirdly, our good friend JASON looked after us
so well, feeding us much better meals than could have been
obtained in service stations (well, the British ones anyway!), keeping us well informed about
the journey and remaining good humoured all the
time.
It’s not very often that I bother to follow up
with thanks for services paid for, but in this case you all
deserve a big thumbs up,
so thank you very much indeed.
I just wonder if I could make a point that you may like
to pass on to other cyclists? During our 1,032k ride we
used an App called
‘Maps.Me’ to find our way around. It
has a cycle route point which proved to be excellent at finding
small cycle paths from village to
village. It even took us across someone’s lawn to
the path beyond! Perhaps, if anyone asks, you could recommend
it to them? The good thing is that it works
off-line, no WiFi needed whilst on the move. It
works anywhere in the world.
Thank you all again". L.Rosling
(Penrith) September 2018

We are now off and running on our plans for our next grand adventure. I can't thank you enough for the great service and company than you run. All the best from a very wet Vancouver Island, British Columbia!" C Foote - Canada November 2017

"I wish to put on formal record my heartfelt appreciation and thanks to one of your employees. She has over the past few days, been incredibly helpful in kindly responding to my queries as I booked to travel to France this summer to see my brother who lives in the South of France, using your very impressive service.
I have posted a card to her today, to convey my thanks personally, but wanted to take this opportunity to email you and say how impressed I have been with the excellent level of service given by your member of staff.
"It was over and above, what I could have hoped from a skilled and dedicated member of staff, and I felt that such service should be valued and recognised, which is why I am writing to you today."
Fisher (Cumbria) May 2015
"Dear all at European Bike Express, I just have to write to say that myself, and the rest of the group wish to thank everybody concerned with our journey.The bus was comfortable, the staff very kind, friendly and helpful .

Thanks for operating such a great business." - C.Foote & G.Brown (Vancouver Island) October 2013

"I would like to say a big thank you for all the help received during my recent trip to France. The seat allocated could not have better for the disabilities I have. The wheat free food options were good too. It was all much easier than I imagined it would be. I would love to do it all again." J.Watson (Northumberland) July 2013
"I just wanted to write to say thank you so much for such an amazing service on my recent trip down to Lourdes and back from Perpignan. Arrived back safely yesterday and even in the face of delays in France over night on the way down, your staff were friendly, kind, helpful and excellent at communicating throughout. Special thanks to the Host and his assistants who really did keep us perfectly fed and watered (and cheery) throughout." - A.Jackson (Surrey) July 2013
"Just a big thanks for a great service. I used the bus for the first time returning from Perpignan on Sunday and was really impressed with the whole experience – great drivers, the Host on food was a star and the whole thing ran like clockwork. Will certainly recommend you and (if I get permission from herself) will use you again." - P.Sharman (Liverpool) July 2013
" We travelled on the coach to Nancy on the 16th June, our first trip on the coach since 1995. It was a very, very good trip: the coach arrived on time at Dover and was very comfortable, and the bikes were handled carefully. Above all the Host was absolutely brilliant - always good-tempered (despite lack of sleep!), helpful, very well organised and he provided good food and drink in a cramped space. Many thanks to all of you." - D Witts & L Yeats (Brighton) July 2012
"I returned from Montpellier with EBE last Sunday 17th June and would just like to take this opportunity to thank you and the crew, for an excellent trip home." - S.Billis (Essex) June 2012
We travelled with you for the first time on Sunday, returning to the UK from Montpellier. The service was very efficient and the communication and information given was accurate, clear and timely. We received a text telling us that the bus was delayed and while the news was unwelcome, the fact that we received the message good. The Host was efficient, courteous and hard working; quite how he managed to negotiate the stairs and aisles without spilling a drop of liquid, or tipping something over is beyond us. Compliments to you, the Host and the drivers on a very efficient service." - I.Peacock (Oxford) September 2011
"Just wanted to say , somewhat belatedly, thank you for the personal service we had on our trip to France a few weeks ago." - E.Huntington (East Yorkshire) July 2011
"Just back today from a week in Narbonne with you; my first ever. Thanks. Superbly organised and no hitches/complaints at all. Please give my thanks to the three drivers used on this trip and a very special thanks to the Host who does a remarkable and wonderful job, ever with a smile." - M.Evans (London) May 2011
"I have been genuinely stunned by the helpfulness of the staff I have dealt with. As someone involved in advertising companies on their reputation I have come across few businesses that work harder on customer care" - L.Fitzpatrick 2009
