George and Valerie, TN
The Mayflower Heritage Tour by Reformation Tours was a great experience with 22 descendants of Mayflower passengers. They came from CA, WA, AZ, MN, VT, NC, TN, FL, NB, & Canada. Many trace their lineage back to Mayflower passenger George Soule. Others to William Brewster, Thomas Rogers, John Alden, Mullins, William Bradford, Samuel Fuller, and John Howland. Several have multiple Mayflower connections. We saw many sites in England and Netherlands that have Pilgrim history. Saw Windsor Castle from the outside, toured Shakespeare’s Globe Theater, had Gin & Tonic at the Plymouth Gin Distillery and rode the London Eye. Gorgeous tulip gardens in Holland. Several ferry and river boat cruises. Stood where the Pilgrims stood and where they ate and drank. Sites were well chosen and the schedule was quite easy, for the most part. Juerg was a very good and delightful tour director. Local guide Sue Allen was exceptionally skilled and it was great to have her for so much of the one day.
