点评:My daughter and I traveled to England this September. It was my first time in England, and I wanted an experience beyond London and to explore the Cotswolds and the Coast. I did not feel comfortable driving on the left side of the road and wanted to hire a driver. Sebastian of ExeQline Chauffeurs & Transfers was recommended to us through our travel agent. This recommendation was the most valuable recommendation she provided. Sebastian stayed in constant communication throughout the planning stages of our trip. He provided recommendations about the villages to see, where to eat along the way and side attractions enroute.
The first few days of our trip we stayed in Oxford. Sebastian picked us up at the hotel at our pre-arranged time. He was very polite and easy going, punctual and professional, and made an excellent impression. He arrived in a luxury vehicle, immaculately clean, and ultra-comfortable and spacious. The car was thoughtfully supplied with water, tissues, hard candy, gum, hand sanitizer, even an umbrella for the rainy days.
Sebastian calculated the driving times and worked with us on the best pick up times to make the most of our day. In total we used his services for 3 days. The first day we made a visit to
Sudeley Castle, then headed to Stow-on-the-Wold with lunch at The Porch. We decided to spend more time Sudeley Castle than we originally anticipated. Without prompting, Sebastian took the initiative to call ahead to The Porch to move up our reservation. After a wonderful lunch and walking around Stow, we drove to Bourton-on-the-Water to explore and then headed back to Oxford. The next day Sebastian picked us up and brought us from London from Oxford. For the ride to London, we had two large, VERY heavy suitcases, a large backpack, a small carry on and 2 personal items. Sebastian didn't blink an eye and lifted our bags into the trunk of his car without hesitation. Later at the drop off, he carried them up the steps to the hotel- without complaint or a grumble--very impressive! We made a day of our return trip to London by stopping at Grays Court and Windsor Castle. Sebastian also made helpful suggestions about where to eat and tours to take in Windsor. A few days later Sebastian picked us up in London for a day trip to the coast. Traffic was heavy that morning, but he remained in communication with us, so we knew when to expect him. At his suggestion, we made a fascinating stop at Scotney Castle and then headed to our coastal destination- Seven Sisters.
At Seven Sisters County Park, Sebastian waited patiently as we walked along the coast. He never made us feel rushed and reassured us that the day was ours to enjoy.
Overall Sebastian made the drive go by quickly. He was conversational and interesting, while always remaining professional. My daughter and I felt comfortable to speak among ourselves, speak with Sebastian, or not speak at all and quietly appreciate the scenery.
Sebastian is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. My daughter and I felt very safe with him at the wheel. In summary, I have only high praise for this car service. Sebastian is an excellent driver, the car is luxuriously comfortable, and he is very helpful in planning the exact kind of activities we wished for on our daytime road trips. Thank you to ExeQline Transfer for making our travel so much easier and enjoyable!!!
翻译:今年九月,我和女儿一同前往英格兰旅行。这是我第一次到英国,我希望能走出伦敦,去探索科茨沃尔德地区和沿海地带。由于不习惯在左侧车道驾驶,我希望能聘请一名司机。我们的旅行社向我们推荐了ExeQline Chauffeurs & Transfers公司的塞巴斯蒂安。这个推荐堪称她所给我们的最有价值的建议。在我们旅行的规划阶段,塞巴斯蒂安始终与我们保持密切沟通。他为我们推荐了值得游览的村庄、沿途的用餐地点以及各种特色景点。
旅行的头几天我们住在牛津。塞巴斯蒂安在事先约定的时间到酒店接我们。他彬彬有礼、随和开朗,既守时又专业,给人留下了极佳的印象。他驾驶着一辆豪华轿车前来,车辆干净整洁,内部空间宽敞且极为舒适。那辆车里贴心地备齐了水、纸巾、硬糖、口香糖、洗手液,甚至还有一把用来应对雨天的雨伞。
塞巴斯蒂安仔细计算了一切驾驶时间,并与我们共同确定了最佳的接载时段,以便让我们能充分利用这一整天。我们总共请他服务了三天。第一天,我们参观了苏德利城堡,随后前往斯托-昂-沃尔德,并在“The Porch”餐厅用午餐。我们最终决定在苏德利城堡多待些时间,这超出了最初的计划。无需任何人提醒……塞巴斯蒂安主动打电话给The Porch,把我们预定的时间提前。享用了一顿美味的午餐并漫步于斯托镇后,我们驱车前往博顿-on-the-Water游览,随后返回牛津。
第二天,塞巴斯蒂安开车到牛津接我们,带我们从伦敦返回。在前往伦敦的途中,我们带了两个很大且极其沉重的行李箱,还有一个大背包。一件小型随身行李和两件个人物品。塞巴斯蒂安面不改色,毫不犹豫地把我们的行李箱搬进了车尾箱。后来送我们到酒店时,他更是毫无怨言、一声不吭地把行李扛上酒店的台阶——实在令人钦佩!回伦敦的途中,我们顺道游览了格雷斯宫和温莎城堡。塞巴斯蒂安还贴心地给我们推荐了在温莎值得一试的餐厅以及值得参观的景点。几天后,塞巴斯蒂安在伦敦接上我们,准备进行一次一日海岸之旅。那天早上交通十分拥堵,但他一直与我们保持联系,所以我们知道他何时会到。在他的建议下,我们顺道参观了极具魅力的斯科特尼城堡,随后便前往目的地——七姐妹海岸。
在七姐妹郡立公园里,当我们沿着海岸线漫步时,Sebastian耐心地等候着。他从不让我们感到匆忙,还向我们保证这一天完全属于我们,可以尽情享受。
总的来说,Sebastian让这段旅程显得飞快。他健谈且风趣,同时又始终保持着专业态度。我和女儿既可以自在地交谈,也可以与Sebastian聊天;甚至什么都不说,静静地欣赏沿途的风景也完全没问题。
Sebastian学识渊博、乐于助人且十分友善。我和女儿坐在由他驾驶的车里,感觉非常安心。总而言之,我对这项用车服务赞不绝口。塞巴斯蒂安是一位出色的司机,车辆舒适豪华,他还帮我们精心规划了日间公路旅行中希望体验的各项活动。感谢ExeQline Transfer让我们的旅途变得如此轻松愉快!!
