"Thank you very much for organising such an enjoyable day out! I have always wanted to explore the East End and at last feel I have at least some idea of what goes on a mile north of where I spend my working days."
Dr R Carr, Guys Hospital, London, UK Mar 2010
"I just want to say thank you for organising such a great tour on Saturday.  I thoroughly enjoyed every minute. I'm really looking forward to the Olympic one later in the year. If you do any other cycle tours, for your own set-up or any others', please let me know. I found your not-so-tour-guide style and humour, frankly, brilliant."
Christine M, Brentwood, UK Mar 2010

"The Tinklers had a fabulous time and thought you were wonderful. Thank you again!"
C Schoeder, Century Travel, a Virtuoso Agency, Atlanta, GA, USA Sep 2009
"On behalf of the McNews and my husband, we would like to THANK YOU for one of the most delightful days that we had on our cruise/trip.  The weather cooperated, your car was very comfortable, drinks were enjoyed and the knowledge you provided us with was educational.  If our plans should ever bring us back (which they could-because you gave us a taste of the area that we would like to see more of) we have you in our travel portfolio as a very positive and enjoyable person to deal with.

I do want to thank you again for a beautiful day and the joy you brought to our vacation. There should be more Anne's in the world."
Judy Rassenfoss, Burlington, Kentucky, USA Sep 2009
"This was our second occasion to use your services for a week’s tour.  As before (4 years ago), this tour met our expectations in full and we do appreciate your planning, especially for me, stopping at the 3 prehistoric stone circles.  Should the opportunity to be in England occur again, we shall certainly contact you."
Boyd and Jeanette Woodruff, New Jersey, USA Jul 2009

"Thank you for the terrific job you did, sharing your knowledge and insights to make our visit to London and the countryside so enriched. We really enjoyed the time with you. Attached is one of my favorite family photos which you took at Stonehenge. We really appreciated you driving us out to Salisbury in the rain. Helping us get our bearings in London was great - a bit overwhelming on the first visit, but by the time we left we really felt like we knew where things were above and below (Westminster Abbey and St. Paul's Cathedral) ground."
Ky, Steve, Sean & Dana Bouchard, Denver, Los Angeles and Washington DC, USA              May 2009
"We the class 11b from Germany wanted to thank you for your guided tour through Hampton Court. We really enjoyed your way to present the information and appreciate your knowledge not only about the castle and we think you seemed to be full of dedication and created large enthusiasm in us, which made everything much more interesting and even funny. We could understand everything very well and it was great that we always had the chance to ask questions, which you were always able to answer - even the rather weird ones. All in all we pretty much enjoyed your open way and had the opportunity to learn easily about the British culture in the past. We think you rock! "
Gabriel-von-Seidl Gymnasium, Bad Tölz, Germany May 2009
"Just a line to say thank you for looking after Mr Arvedi and family on Saturday. They really enjoyed their trip out with you and thought you were great."
Arvedi Group, Cremona, Italy Mar 2009
"Thanks for making our trip so fantastic. You did an outstanding job and were great fun!!! Billy Elliot was amazing and unforgettable. Paris was magical. However, we walked everywhere which wore me out but it was well worth it. I wish we had more time in each country. I may want to do more of England next spring. Will stay in touch and thanks for the yummy recipe."
The Lippman family, Atlanta, GA, USA Mar 2009
"Anne Mark, our guide, is the “dream guide” come true.

I want a guide who is on time. Anne was always early and patiently waiting for us.

I want a guide who is warm and friendly. Anne is exactly that!

I want a guide who knows her subjects and shares knowledge with enthusiasm. Anne offers a perfect balance: she doesn’t overwhelm you with information but rather understands how different people learn and sees how we absorb new things—and Anne then responds accordingly. She made sure to get to know us and then made the experience into a perfect fit! Her depth of knowledge and her breadth of knowledge are impressive.

I want a guide who brings energy to her work. I don’t want it to sound like it has been said a million times. Anne is always present, enthusiastic, and in love with her subject!   Frankly, Anne made our trip. We really feel we “know” London because of her guidance. The days we were with her were worth every moment, and the days we were on our own were based on what Anne showed and taught us.

We’re already talking about going to Paris by flying to London and hiring Anne to go with us to Paris for a day or two. She’s amazing!"
B & A Kurzweil, Long Island, NY, USA   Jan 2009

Here is the email I sent Janice (travel agent) so you can truly see how much we ALL enjoyed our afternoon with you:
Just wanted to tell you how WONDERFUL Anne was. She is FAR and AWAY the BEST tour guide I've ever had. In fact, as I told Anne, I generally don't enjoy tours and I loved our time with her. Super knowledgeable, bright, easy going, fun, great sense of humor... and great at discerning just how much info to give without overwhelming with too much detail, specifics... Cannot say enough nice things about her! Thanks for recommending her to Dan's family so that they were so impressed that Michelle recommended her to me. :-)"

It has been great working with you and I hope to do so again in the not too distant future."

Cindy Gordon, Frosch Travel, Deerfield, IL, USA Jun 2007
"Thank you one more time for doing such a terrific job with Cantabile. They loved you and proof of that was, that everyone continued with the sightseeing tour  even though beforehand lots of people had asked me if they could venture off on their own. They thought you were very knowledgeable but also appreciated your sense of humour and flexibility...  The whole tour was a huge success, so a very happy group indeed. "
Ingeborg Lameire,  Garfit Cultural Tours, choir group, Belgium May 2007

Lamar Smith, Texas,  USA May 2007
"Many, many thanks for giving the Smithers family such wonderful tours of the sights of London, Hampton Court and Windsor Castle: it was really a memorable week. I will be happy to recommend you to anyone who asks.  A very experienced guide really enhances a trip and is well worth the expense! "

Kip Smithers, Wabasso, Florida, US

 Apr 2007
"Thank you for yet another brilliant tour, wonderfully executed by you! Of course I loved it - and so did the girls. In fact, they told me you had taught them more about British history in one day than they had learned about Swedish history in two years! They also let me know that you were funny, warm, kind, smart...and that they would LOVE to come back and do more touring with you! Isn't that a wonderful endorsement from two picky teenagers?!? "
Christine M., Los Angeles, California, USA Apr 2007
From letter to travel agent:  "I also want you to know how much we enjoyed being with our guide.  Anne had a wonderful way of interacting with the children – just the right combination of seriousness and fun. She treated them with respect and like adults – which seems to be what they are looking for at this stage, but with a light touch and lots of humor. She made history come alive for all of us. Anne is a professional right on time (even if we were not!) –with a clean car, drinks in the refrigerator and a well-planned itinerary for the day.  And it is clear that Anne loves her work.  She has a wonderful smile.  She conducted us with joy, intelligence , sensitivity – and vast knowledge of the subject matters.  It was like seeing England with a very smart, and very good friend. I would recommend Anne to all of your clients.  She is truly first rate"
T. Harrison, Staten Island, NY, USA Mar 2007
"Umberto and I had a wonderful time in  London this weekend; thank you so much for the lovely tour - we really enjoyed it.  The next time we decide to return to London I will write or call you - we still have a lot to see"

From article published in The New Zealand Listener:  "For two days my group of four had the benefit of a Blue Badge Guide, Anne Mark, who proved an inspired leader.  Far from wanting to shake her off and go shopping, I did not want her to leave us, so erudite and quirky was her commentary and so great her depth of knowledge."

"Just to say THANKS very much for a lovely two days in London. Peter and I enjoyed everything we saw and experienced and we also enjoyed your informative company"
L Hayward, Group Public Relations Manager, Goodyear Tyre & Rubber Holdings, South Africa Feb 2007
"My fiancée and I cannot say enough complimentary things about Anne and the service she provided on our very special trip to London.  Anne’s guidance and assistance helped turn my bare semblance of an idea as to how to propose to my lovely fiancée in London into such a spectacular success.  Anne’s responsiveness, attention to detail and warmth of character helped put me at ease as I sat in Los Angeles and tried to prepare for this special night.  The evening that Anne planned for us surpassed my, and more importantly, my fiancée’s, every expectation and has become a favorite topic of conversation back home.  Anne won a special place in our hearts by treating the planning of our special event as if it were her own!"

Your knowledge of English history and of Windsor Palace and Hampton Court is awesome and your delivery made everything very interesting. You were not only professional, but also very personable and humorous. You never made us feel pressured to go anywhere or do anything. We were able to have a full, yet relaxing day. Your suggestions for the tours and for lunch were perfect. You gave us a perfect start to our vacation! You more than met our expectations"
Betty Campbell, New York, NY, USA  Mar 2004
"I appreciate very much how sensitive you are to our interests and attention spans (along with our energy levels!)"
Bev P. Washington, USA  Feb 2004
"I appreciate so much your expertise. In my two trips to London I believe that I have had a superior experience to so many visitors because I have seen places that are unique and not only the usual tourist spots. Blenheim Palace was my absolute favorite; I find myself thinking fondly of the lovely spot where Churchill is buried and the cup of tea we had in the pub - a true British experience which I wouldn't have been able to have without your assistance.
With the weak dollar many travelers might balk at the cost of a private guide but I know it's the best money I spent on the trip. You are able to expose us to the essence of a place--what it's about--historically, culturally and economically. Your preparation is evident. As a teacher, I appreciate that a great deal"
A. Adams, Seattle, Washington, USA  Feb 2004
"In 2003 I contacted various tour companies enquiring about a personalised London Tour. Anne Mark of Marksman Tours stood out as being knowledgeable, friendly and above all willing to really consider what I was looking for and tailor make a package.

The tour was interesting, well planned and flexible enough to allow for in depth conversations on various subjects including the ice age when Britain split from the rest of the European continent. This may seem like an odd subject to discuss on a tour of London but it illustrates Anne's great spread of knowledge - if you want to know something Anne's your (wo)man. The day was a great success and covered lots of ground. Little touches like chilled drinks constantly available and umbrellas to borrow if it rained all help to make the day most enjoyable.
Subsequently I have asked Anne to organise another London tour, this time for my board of directors and their wives.  When Anne responds to a request to include something a little different, with "how about a Bards, Bishops and Brothels walk?" then I just know it will be another success."

Joe Antonell, Florida, USA  Dec 2003

"I can't thank you enough for graciously spending your time with Laurie and me last Monday.  You are quite a bundle of knowledge and wit!  Somerset House came to life with the information you shared with us, and the Gilbert Collection was definitely one of the most interesting exhibits I have ever seen… I know that given the opportunity, my clients would definitely enjoy a private tour with you.  You have a gift of imparting information in a manner which keeps it interesting to the listener."

"Just wanted to say again how much your involvement in my stay in UK made for such a wonderful experience. I would never have had the same exposure if J. and I had been on our own.  Your knowledge is extensive and sense of practicality in planning very professional and valuable.  I also appreciate your flexibility in response to my  "flitting about" and being so overwhelmed with choices. I hope to visit again and will look forward to having such a professional guide as yourself. Aside from all that "professionalism" it was also nice to hang out with a "real" person, rather than an automated information kiosk!"
Gloria, Vancouver, Canada Feb 2002
"... you made the trip a lot more fun and interesting. We appreciated ... you planning activities around the kids:  Bodiam Castle, suggesting a Thames boat trip, riding on the steam engine train etc. were all great ideas and we had a lot of fun."

"My daughter and I worked with Anne over a three day period. I have used guide services extensively, on three continents, and Anne is the best we have found. Her disposition is upbeat, she's very friendly, and most importantly, she customizes the tours exactly to your specifications. She is very flexible and is able to change the itinerary (within reason) in the middle of the tour - no hassles. It's not easy to please a mother and a 15-year old girl; Anne managed to do it! We would not hesitate to recommend her services."
