Great Wall Marathon - China

Thanks for all you did in organising such an incredible and smooth trip to China! What an amazing experience! Appreciated every second and travelling with you guys made this an unforgettable experience. Will remember this for years to come! Looking forward to the next one!!

Thank you so much for everything you did for Dave and I in the planning, organising, chasing accommodation and booking for our trip to China and Singapore stopover. Our holiday would not have been as perfect as it was without your help. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in China and as well as the breathtaking Great Wall run the sightseeing you organised was just so much more than we could've hoped for. Thankyou 🙂 Our stopover stay at Marina Bay Sands was simply incredible. I don't know if I have the words to describe how wonderful a time we had there too. Paying the extra for the Club Room was also worth every cent. If anyone ever asks you about it, a high recommendation from us is an understatement! It was the perfect end to what Dave has described (to everyone we have talked to so far about our trip) as "the best holiday we have ever had"

It was a real privilege to be able to participate in the 2015 a Great Wall Marathon. Although the run up the Wall was extremely tough, it was also exhilarating with spectacular views and incredible scenery. It was also great running through the villages and getting to 'high five' the young children lining the track! It also gave you a real lift whenever you saw another runner in their Aussie 'Travelling Fit' top! The local guides were excellent and looked after us very well. We had read and heard some horror stories about travelling in China ... however our entire trip went very smoothly and we were always very well looked after. We were pleasantly surprised that most of our tour group were just ordinary, normal people like us ... who just happened to have the courage to get out of their comfort zone and attempt something extraordinary! We were very fortunate to have so many friendly people in our group. Many thanks to the Travelling Fit crew for their friendliness, helpfulness and professionalism in helping fulfill my dream to run the Great Wall.

Havana Marathon, Cuba

The Cuban trip was fantastic. I loved it! I have wanted to go to Cuba all my life and I would describe the experience as a holiday to Cuba with a 26.2 run/walk included. I wasn’t sure that doing the tour before the race was the best idea, however I’ve changed my mind on that. It gave us all a chance to get to know one another and to bond well before the race. It was heartwarming to be cheered on halfway and at the finish by a bunch of Aussies who felt like friends. Thank you for an amazing experience. We couldn’t have been in better company and the Aussies on board were really good fun with some really awesome running accolades between them all. I was very glad to have the WMM medal behind me so that I can start to enjoy the adventure/holiday run!

Kangaroo Island Marathon - Australia

Thank you for your help in the run up my Kangaroo Island adventure. It was a very special event and I am very glad to have taken part in such a unique running event . Yet again Travelling Fit ensured a smooth journey (though I can't say the same for the ferry crossing back to the mainland!!) . I'm already looking at what I can do next! Thanks again.

London Marathon - UK

I just found the Travelling Fit reps were so approachable and so nice. It didn't matter what time you did, they treated you like a champion!  The other thing I love about Travelling Fit is meeting like-minded people. So many people think you are crazy for running marathons and so it is great to meet with others who think the same way as you. I have met so may wonderful people and formed life time friendships because of Travelling Fit.

Gillian Edwards, QLD

The Virgin London Marathon was a great experience which was helped by Travelling Fit. Travelling Fit reps were also on hand to answer questions and provide assistance to runners and their partners, day and night. The extra activities, like the city tour were also excellent. It was also great to be taken to the start line by bus, instead of battling with the London transport system on race day. Overall, the whole experience was wonderful and I would strongly recommend Travelling Fit to prospective runners and their families.

Anna Smith, NSW

Travelling Fit were brilliant. The London Marathon was a 'bucket list' item for me, and the Travelling Fit Team were super professional at every step of the way. Their organisation and communication prior to the event was clear, prompt and efficient. Their approach and organisation on the ground in London was faultless.

Jeremy King, VIC

Thank you to the Travelling Fit team who helped organise and prepared us for the London Marathon, including both the office and “on ground” teams. They were very professional and answered any of my rookie questions, and the support I received from both was great. Having the wonderful attitude and friendly manner they have made it easier for me to find out things about the event that I normally wouldn't have by just looking up a website and registering. It was their personal experience and feedback that was appreciated.

Delia Howard, QLD

A fabulous team of professionals with a strong client relationship focus that makes every experience with Travelling Fit great value for money. The personal touch goes a long way!

Dan Cudmore, VIC

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for helping me achieve the six star medal, it has been a bit bumpy the last few years with DVT’s and injury but we got there in the end and  I could not have done this without Travelling Fit. As you know I have run many marathons around the world mostly on my own but the ones I have enjoyed the most are when I travel with you guys (New York, Berlin, Tokyo and London); you take away all the stress of where to stay and how to get to the start line to name a few, and of course you attract all the right people (us runners). Anyway, I will be looking for the next challenge, hopefully to travel with you guys again in the near future.

Phil Selfe, WA

If you're looking for a hassle free running experience, Travelling Fit is the way to go. The team members are just wonderful and will go above and beyond to help you plan your perfect running adventure. Thanks so much to the entire team for helping create memories that will last a lifetime!

Tiffany Wardell, VIC

Once again a HUGE thank you for all that you did for all of the runners in London. It was such a pleasure sharing the experience with the happy group and everything was just so well organised. I couldn't have hoped for a better London Marathon experience, not just the run itself, but the events that you organised with the Travelling Fit runners as well. The organisation pre event was easy and clear to follow, with clear expectations for deposits etc. The Travelling Fit travel consultants were helpful and prompt with communication.

The event package was just what I'd want for a marathon weekend and the information provided beforehand was fantastic. At the event, the Travelling Fit representative was incredibly organised and helpful. Nothing was too difficult for her, and everything was easy for the runners as a result. There was minimal (no) fuss getting to the start line (unlike my usual marathons) and the pre and post race events were terrific.

The small details organised by Travelling Fit weren't expected and very much appreciated, such as the delicious food at the pasta party, even down to having a bath in every participant's room. Thanks again for a wonderful experience.

Beck Myors, NSW

Thanks for your email - I appreciated the opportunity to provide some feedback on what was, a fantastically organised trip. The team at Travelling Fit made this a most enjoyable experience. Nothing was ever too much trouble for you and we were all so grateful for all your assistance with our changes to accommodations, flights etc. Thanks again for everything.

Emma Lund, NSW

Personally I think you did a great job of bonding the team by Facebook and the pre race dinner and I can't think of anything else that needs improving as the service I received with finding ongoing accommodation after was excellent.

Paul Ford, NSW

A very belated but heartfelt thank you for all the amazing organising you did for us for the London marathon. I had a wonderful time in. London and actually recorded a PB which made the trip even sweeter. Everything ran so incredibly smoothly, I cannot speak highly enough of yourself and travelling fit. I will definitely be booking with travelling Fit again in the near future and in the meantime am recommending you to whoever is prepared to listen to my travelling tales. Thank you again,

Kirsti Byrne, NSW

This was really a terrific experience and we were so pleased with the great organisation and personal support and friendly but professional approach ...thank you! I really appreciated all your support and organisation and also your positive enthusiasm about marathoning. Many thanks again for all your help and organisation to make this a really wonderful and memorable marathon experience. I just loved it and both your and Mari-Mar's assistance and involvement was terrific.

Sandra Heriot, NSW

London – A truly amazing event. After doing NYC marathon (twice) with Travelling Fit I was not expecting London to be as fantastic as it was. But it exceeded my expectations and more - perfect conditions & an incredibly well organised & supported event. Thank you for all the work you put into it.

Sarah, SA

What a great bus tour organised by Travelling Fit. Even after many trips to London I learnt new things and saw many new sights, some of which I returned to after the tour to explore in more depth. Great tour guide, nice level of explanation. Booked with Travelling Fit purely for this [bus transfer] service! Great to have had, made things very "easy". Appreciated, and very glad, that departure time was a little later than in previous years. The Meet and Greet was a lovely evening and so absolutely necessary for a debrief. With this and the pasta night, really made it feel like an experience and not just a run. Well run and loved the penthouse floor views. Will never forget that sunset! You have a great team, I'd be happy to book an event again given the care I received.

Kathryn, WA

We didn't attend any extra Travelling Fit events during the 5 days due to us being really busy seeing friends and family across London and in the country but were very happy to know that it was an option if we were there and felt very comfortable to attend and talk to our Travelling Fit representative, whenever possible. Loved every minute of the Virgin Money London Marathon and now have a goal to run the rest of the marathon majors.
