2007 Comments I had never dreamed I'd actually stand beneath Glenfinnan Viaduct or ride a steam train in a private car over it, hold a real snowy owl on my wrist and look into its beautiful face, throw rocks into the great lake and look out for the giant squid, or listen to the walls of the ancient houses whisper to me from every nook and cranny.Everything was magical, and by the time we went to Loch Ness I was becoming a bit overwhelmed...Amazement Overload. I'm glad I kept a journal to remember everything! Cec P Larry knows his way around, and is an encyclopedia of information and stories ! Joeseph H Traveling with Magical Tours is a truly magical experience. The trip was more than I could have dreamed of or ever expected. It almost felt like I was not on a trip at all; like we all lived there. I would definitely do it again. Amy B We truly felt we were in Harry's world during our stay. It was very special, and we all had the trip of a lifetime. J S Magical Tours has searched out the unique and magical locations the tour buses cannot go (and do not know about). I received exceptional value for my money. The train travel was a great time to catch up and reflect. It was all a magical experience. I certainly plan to travel with Your Man in Europe again! Patricia E All my life I have felt connected to England, but it wasn't until "Harry" that I felt truly compelled to go "across the pond". Magical Tours has made a very dear dream of mine come to reality. It is something I will cherish for all my life! Connie H Larry, you did an awesome job of organizing this trip! It is difficult to walk the line between too scheduled and too flexible, but somehow you did it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! Linda L The trip was so much fun; more than I expected, and I was expecting a lot! Halfway through the trip I was already excited to come back next year for more fun! Thanks for a great time! Jenna H The Magic of Harry Potter came alive for me on this tour. I could feel J. K. Rowling with me as I walked the streets of Edinburgh. I could feel how this place could influence her to write such a remarkable story. I lived it! Winnie H Since I was the oldest on the trip I can let the younger folks know that the trip was not hurried, exhausting, or nerve-wracking! Our tour was theme-related (Harry Potter); but the tour guide gave us historical perspective while showing us enchanted places. The trip was both an educational and enjoyable journey through Scotland. Beverly F It was nice to meet others as excited about Harry Potter as I am. Several Harry Potter-esque surprises were in store, and Larry kept the excitement going. Highly recommended; I am already saving up for a future trip! Amanda C My second time on a "Magical Tour" was excellent. The tour guide has a vast knowledge of area and locations, and is very personable. Time flies...I did not want the tour to end. Don't worry about food or accommodations, all are great! Martha H 2006 Comments “I can honestly say that going on this tour was the greatest experience of my life. And until the day I die, I have no doubt it will remain on the top two smartest decisions I've ever made. Everything was thought out to the smallest detail - planned and prepared for. My mother couldn't have taken better care of me. England has always been the land of my heart, and I can think of no possible way my first visit there could have been any more perfect. I apologize for gushing, but really that trip is something I will never, ever forget. The places we stayed were amazing. I've never felt more at home living out of a suitcase. And before this trip, I've never seen a group of total strangers meld into a caring family within a week. I didn't feel like just another goggling tourist on this trip. I felt like I belonged there, like I was a part of where I was. I loved and enjoyed every moment of it, and I can't wait to go back !”
“ We have spent many hours reminiscing over pictures, creating slide shows and movies. When I watched the video during the editing process, it was as if we (our little travel group) were actually in the Harry Potter movies…then you remember, no that’s real life – I was there!” Cindy D.
“I cannot give enough praise to Your Man in Europe/Magical Tours! We were more like a family than a tour group. I would recommend anyone to travel with Your Man in Europe/Magical Tours; in fact I URGE everyone to see Europe through Larry’s eyes. Amy L.
“Loved the off-beat locales and the mystic spots and explanations.” Dot F.
“This tour is spectacular. What really impressed me, and others on the tour, was the amount which Larry went “the extra mile” to make this tour as magical as possible. Dave H.
“The Enchanted England tour was one of the best experiences of my life. The small group size allowed everyone to be close, and I know I’ve made some life-long friends. Carolyn F.
“Larry's tour is the best in the world! Great prices, accommodations, transportation and everything in between. Every part of the tour was excellent and fun. The small group helps make everything easier to do (like moving around the city). An unforgettable experience! Worth every penny.”
“The trip was one I'll never forget. Being able to meet other fans like myself made everything even more enjoyable. Once you go on the trip everything will seem so much more real and exciting. Who knows who you may meet!”
“People asked me before this trip, why Scotland? The first MuggleNet Tour of Scotland and England was a fantastic trip, immersing all of us into Harry's world....Larry wove a tour filled with great activities and scenic locations, creating a really magical experience. Not only did we experience Jo's world and meet the very hospitable Scottish people, but we also made friends from around North America that we'll keep for a lifetime!”
“My tour with Larry was a trip of a lifetime! Larry goes the extra mile to make everyone comfortable. He made this a very "magical" experience. I will definitely book with him in the future! He really brought Harry Potter to life for me and my son. I can hardly wait to see what he is planning for 2007!”
“Larry is everyone's Dad. He took such good care of us on what felt like a family vacation. He put so much heart and magic into this tour. I thought I knew everything about Harry Potter, but Larry taught us things you can only find out by visiting the places where J.K. Rowling grew up and what influenced her writing. He has a thorough knowledge of both HP related topics and the true history of the places we visited. Larry always had a few surprises up his sleeve that kept us laughing. We went to places that you could never get to on a tour bus....It's a once in a lifetime trip, treat yourself!” "Teach us something please, Whether we be old and bald Or young with scabby knees. Our heads could do with filling with some interesting stuff..." Hogwarts School Song by J.K. Rowling "That's exactly what Larry, our wizard extraordinary did. He took us on a Harry Potter adventure we will never forget! A+" Alton, New Hampshire 2005 Comments“Forget the usual stereotypes about exhausting holidays to Europe and prepare yourself for the complete Renaissance Man tour. Travel with a colleague you can trust to know the best places to see, stay and eat. With Larry everyday is a bonus, a bundle of laughs and energy. Prepare yourself for the experience of a lifetime and a man dedicated to making sure you enjoy every moment of your holiday. Worth every cent - book with confidence!” “Traveling with Larry is like taking a trip with one of your best friends - one that knows all the best 'off the beaten path', special places that you will never find on a normal tour. He seems to know exactly what will be memorable for YOU, providing far more than just a canned experience.”
“If this be magic, let it be an art.”
“His trips have style. When you travel with Larry, you own the place.” John W.
“Our trip with Your Man In Europe made us fall in love with the countries we visited and left us wanting to go back again on another memorable adventure.” Joe & Jan H
“Traveling with Larry has a way of bringing all five senses alive to anchor you to an event or place. Long after a trip I am able to enjoy many pleasant hours recalling and in a way, reliving the experience.” John M
