“We have completed our third farming tour with C R McPhail. They have been China, Canada/Alaska Cruise, Central Europe and have enjoyed each one. The programs arranged for the tours are well thought out and have a very good mix of farm, agricultural related information meetings and sight seeing visits. The tour leaders are extremely competent and helpful. The same goes for the overseas guides so it all comes back to the excellent planning carried out by C R McPhail Ltd. We would have no hesitation in recommending an overseas farming tour with C R McPhail Ltd. Everything is taken care of and this lets you enjoy the trip.”
