Europe Eco Tours

The Baltic Capitals trip was a great introduction to the three Baltic States, with nice centrally located hotels in easy walking distance of most of the main attractions of each city along with numerous options for food. Our guide, Inna, was fantastic all the way through, keeping everything running, giving us lots of information about the countries we passed though along with her personal recollections of living through the fall of the USSR and Estonian independence which really helped us understand the history of the region. Inna was also very good at suggesting options for free time and dinners, along with helping people get to more esoteric places of interest. There were some fairly long travelling days in between the main cities, but that's fairly normal and expected for a trip like this, these long drives were broken up with stops in places for lunch or attractions such as the Hill of Crosses. All in all a very good trip with lots to see, lots to take in, good food, good beer, and a fantastic guide.

My best Explore holiday to date. The walking was fantastic and I mean all the walks, the views, the sea, and the weather. Nebil the guide was excellent, knowledgeable and fun. The food as expected was very good. I will go back and undertake the Lycian way.

Walks were varied & were done in a logical manner with easier ones first gradually increasing in length & severity. All the walks were capable of being done by an experienced walker. Our guide, Bert, was very knowledgeable & also ensured that all the guests were comfortable going at their own pace.

Our guides Ruben and Thomas were fantastic, loved the Loire Valley, our hotels were awesome, everything was perfect and the guys were so helpful. Lunches by Thomas were excellent. No complaints here

Pacing of the tour is just right. Hotels were curated well. However, sites visited and activities need much improvement. Maybe the Vienna tour would be nice to have visited places like Hallstatt or Salzburg instead of Bratislava. Local food offered during dinners would have been great if there was more variety. The three countries being under Austro Hungarian Empire for more than 600 years, the food were the same or similar. Furhtermore, our tour was pleasant and so enjoyable as we had a great Tour Director, Anne-Elyse. She's so attentive, caring, thoughtful, sensitive to our needs, kind, and considerate. We, with my family, would be very glad to have her again in our future tours with Insight vacations. Cheers!

Baltis is a gem!!!! 3 countries in 12 days with fairytale old towns, culture, the music soul of the people, these countries have rich cultural traditions, centuries old folklore, song festivals of voices and UNESCO listed historic centers. All the medieval towers and coloful facades walking through them feel likes stepping back in time. Baltics offer untouched landscapes perfect for breathing fresh air from endless pine forest and serene lakes to the largest sand dune in Europe, the Curonian Spit.
