1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
We loved the nature, scenery, coast, beaches and the calm, peaceful, tranquility of the Isles of Scilly. The islands were really clean, no litter or rubbish, very green and rural. The Scillonians were very respectful and polite, very engaging and helpful - very friendly. The water taxis and boating were very easy and completely easy to use. he walking routes qually were easy to follow.
