The Wales trip with Rowan Tree was an incredible experience. The accommodations were excellent choices due to location, comfort, and level of professionalism of the entire staff. The manor houses are definitely my favorite but the boutique hotels are quite nice also.
The transportation provided is comfortable and our drivers are friendly and extremely helpful.
The places we visited were perfect for fiber enthusiasts like us. Also, we were given the exact amount of time in each place so that we never felt rushed or bored.
The fiber ambassadors couldn’t have been more accommodating or professional. I’ve traveled with Colleen before and found her to be so knowledgeable and just a delightful person. I wish we had been able to spend more time with Liz as she was such fun. Maybe next time.

The Wales tour was a beautiful ride through the countryside with fabulous fiber and yarn and people! I will think of the farmers, mill owners, and dyers as I knit with the lovely wool I have purchased.

This was the trip of a lifetime. A chance to travel with a wonderful group of people. We had so many special experiences-some fiber moments, as well as opportunities to learn the rich history of New Zealand and to experience the magnificent wildlife. I leave with a respect for the place and its people feeling like I’ve had a glimpse into some of the special corners.

“Murder She Knits,” a mystery themed knitting trip, was so well thought out and clever and made for great group dynamics and lots of laughter. We enjoyed a variety of “field trips” to historical sites, beautiful gardens and stunning coastal landscapes as well as yarn producers and independent shops. Our accommodations were excellent and delicious food was abundant. Ending the trip in London’s WestEnd was just perfect. This was my fourth RTT trip and will certainly not be my last!

I loved how you put a high value on including local cultural experiences in addition to feeding my fiber addiction!

Rowen Tree Travels offer well organized knitting and cultural tours. Guides and organizers are approachable, knowledgeable about the culture of the country and kind. Looking forward to my next trip with them.

If you are a fiber person, Rowan Tree Travel tours should be on your bucket list. The tour guides are incredibly knowledgeable and warm. The activities are varied and interesting. The accommodations are lovely and unique. The other travelers are curious and wonderful to explore with. I have been on two different tours and loved them both.

The Wonderwool Wales Tour was fantastic! I loved meeting so many people who were passionate and knowledgeable about fiber and the relationship between the culture of the place and fiber. The tour was well organized and the fiber ambassadors were amazing!

A wide ranging tour that hit the "best of" New Zealand, with great included options, free time to explore exactly what YOU want and shopping time. If you're concerned about the two nights with shared bathrooms, don't be! One of our travelers nailed it saying "it's like a dorm." There were never any lines, and the time at Middlehurst Sheep station (the location) was one of the highlights of the trip with superlative food. Lodgings were fun boutique hotels (no chains) that were comfortable, clean, and centrally located. Having one stop with a washer/dryer in your room was a brilliant choice by Jo! Would gladly go again and travel with tour leaders Jo and Kay any time, any where. Sarah S.

Would recommend to knitters, fiber curious, and even non-knitters -- from the places visited to the food to the manor house accommodations!

Everything from the food to the locations to the activities was perfect. Really, you guys nailed it. 10/10!!

I felt as if I entered a magical kingdom when we first arrived at The Faroe Islands. What a beautiful part of the world it is. I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to visit!
