"Our holiday out of P. Casafieres was an outstanding success. Our 'instructor' filled the captain with confidence so that she was able to cope with all handling issues; the response of the team to problems we had was rapid and very efficient"
Mr Terry Wilson- October 2008
"Ten days ago we finished a cruise we took from Castelmoron sur-Lot. Apart from the very enjoyable cruise and the fine weather, we were most impressed by the quite extraordinary friendliness and service we received at the base. The staff, Rob Graham, Phil, but especially Marie-Helene went out of their way to make our cruise enjoyable and helped in many ways which are certainly not routine customer service. From storing our suitcases, driving us to and from the supermarket to giving me a special lift to the post office, and answering all our questions very patiently, they certainly enhanced our experience and made us very satisfied customers."
Dr. Danny Syon and family - September 2008
Fortunately I have to report that everything lived up to our greatest expectations. The boat was of a very high standard and certainly spacious enough for 10 people ranging from 3 years of age to 84 years of age."
"The scenery was spectacular for the whole trip; the locks were easy to negotiate with the help of very friendly lockkeepers; provisions were easily obtained in local towns; and to cap it all the weather was gloriously sunny and hot. Although there were many tourist attractions along our route, what we enjoyed most was the peace of travelling at our own leisurely pace in the dappled sunlight of the tree-lined canal."
Mr D Martin
"Thank you for an excellent holiday on the Norfolk Broads. Our boat was beautifully prepared , even down to a vase of fresh cut flowers in the galley when we arrived.
Your base staff were friendly and professional and gave us all the help we needed to get underway. We spent a most enjoyable week cruising the northern broads and on our return to Wroxham your base had a bridge pilot to us, within 10 minutes of phoning, to bring us under Wroxham bridge.
We would certainly recommend Connoisseur Cruisers to any one looking for a first class boating holiday and would definitely make them our first choice for any future boating holiday."
Mr E Partridge
"Just a quick note to thank you for your help with our recent holiday in Brittany. The Crusader was fun and a good time was had by all, despite the cold weather and rain on the last day."
Andre Le Prevost
"We cruised from Castelnaudary to Port Cassafieres in positive luxury, aboard one of your Calypso boats, and enjoyed every minute of it. We wallowed in glorious sunshine much of the time on the Canal du Midi, and never tired of gazing at this impressive feat of engineering, with its ever-changing scenery."

Having read a review about the Benson facility in the Cambridge Evening News, I organised the boat hire for our annual University ‘old boys’ reunion this year. Without exception, the trip lived up to the promise in the article and we all had the best weekend reunion to date!"
