Europe Sightseeing Trips

Our tour of the Mediterranean Coastal Journey, far exceeded our expectations. The tour manager was absolutely amazing! Having been thrown some curveballs, especially when the rain and windy weather caused Cinque Terre to be closed! Barbara pulled together a tour of the Imperiale Palace for the next day, with a demo on making Pesto sauce, then each of us made pesto as well. I was so looking forward to Cinque Terre, but in the long run we had a great experience in Genoa. Also, the hotel there was lovely being located on the marina, and all the shops and restaurants were just across the street. I was not looking forward to our stay in Genoa but came away pleasantly surprised. Our group of 22 turned out to be incredibly friendly right from the beginning. All the restaurants were very good, she even surprised us with a 1* Michelin dinner experience in substitution for that evening dining experience having been cancelled, so we got to eat at the number 1 restaurant in Marseilles! I have to say that Barbara was responsible for getting the group off to a great start being together, with her great sense of humor, friendliness, being firm about the start time to be on the bus :-) She went above and beyond making the last night of our tour so very special for my daughter, being it was her actual birthday. It was all just perfect! Thank you, Barbara, what tour will you be leading next season? I would consider going on it knowing how you can handle even those last-minute curveballs!

We were thrilled to see all that this tour had to offer. We included additional days to see ancestry sites. Our guide, Jirka was absolutely the best ever. We will fondly remember everything we saw and did.

I was recently on the Czechia Unesco Tour – 7 Unesco Sites in 6 Days, beginning 25 May 2025. Our tour guide Jirka, and his assistant, Jana, were great. I loved traveling with a small group; it felt like traveling with friends. Jirka went over and beyond expectations by finding a replacement contact lens for me and also a US plug adapter! The tour was well planned and guides very knowledgeable. The only thing I would change would be perhaps a second night in Cesky Krumlov. The hotels were charming. I look forward to the next tour.

The trip was fantastic and were great guides who planned such fun and informative stops at every destination. I had a blast with the group and would go back in a heartbeat.

This was a girls' trip to the Czech Republic. Our tour guide, Jirka, was extremely knowledgeable of the UNESCO sites, and he was very accommodating of our requests and needs. When Jirka found out we all liked kolaches, he brought them for us to have as afternoon treats. Jirka showed us how the Metro system works in Prague so that we could use it on our free days. He took us to one of his favorite restaurants for lunch one day on our way out of Prague, which was excellent. Jirka tried to teach us some words in Czech, and encouraged us to keep practicing. Jirka loves being a tour guide and it shows - we loved every minute of the tour and he was an absolute delight!

Jirka was a great guide. No issues, made the trip fun, took care of everything without a hiccup. The hotels and locations we stopped at were all in great shape and were a pleasant stay. Highly recommend
