Testimonials

"For years the cathedral community (worshippers and visitors) has had the free use (out of working hours) of an adjacent car park. The potential loss of this facility resulted in considerable anxiety to the extent of raising questions about cathedral's future and viability.  Go Travel Solutions has enabled us carefully and calmly to consider the alternatives to parking 'by the front door' and has offered us a range of responses to a pressing problem. Anxiety levels have reduced and motivation to seek alternatives has increased. The thoroughness, efficiency and responsiveness of Go Travel Solutions, together with its knowledge of the worlds of travel and transport, have enabled the cathedral to turn a crisis into an opportunity." 
The Very Reverend Vivienne Faull, Dean of Leicester Cathedral  

"Whenever we speak of the Cathedral Square Project one issue that is sure to come up time and again is that of travel.   It has been a joy to work with Go Travel solutions in getting to grips with the tricky issues of developing sustainable solutions to these recurrent questions.   Go Travel Solutions have worked thoroughly and responsively, and provided a report that is both accessible and comprehensive.  I would certainly recommend them to any other organisaiton facing comparable issues."
