The hotels and planed activities were great, transportation as well. I saw a lot in this trip and had lots of great new experiences. What I did not expect was that most of the group would be spanish speakers and the english speakers to be a small minority. Also the tour guides were pretty mixed. Btw I can’t really rate them since only the spanish speaking guides are showing up In general I had the feeling that the native spanish speaking guides were interacting more with the spanish group and a bit less with the english group. It seemed otherwise with the native Japanese guides Akane and Ken, but it might be due to the small english group on the trip compared to the spanish speakers.
Also some guides like “Pacco” or Miguel gave us very little background Information to the visited sites compared to other guides. But I was really happy with our Guide Ken whom I had for most of the trip, so I don’t feel bad about it.
Thank you very much for a great time

When we reached Tokyo, no one from Europamundo came to receive us. After about 1.5hrs. someone came took us to the Hotel in public Transport we dragged our bags. All 3 of us are senior citizens.
Evening next day we were taken around Tokyo in a public transport. Very tiring. We need to be compensated as we had paid for a private tour.
The visit to the Imperial Palace grounds in TOKYO KYOTO is waste of time as the Palaces are closed we just walk in the grounds - nothing to see.
The itinerary gave us no free time.
The Guides - all of them were superb very helpful.

There was so much walking and bus riding. We had unruly passengers on the bus that didnt listen to the tour guides. Tour guides were fantastic and patient
Tour guides were great: Juliana, Pedro R. and Javier. Knowledgeable, friendly and dependable. The hotels were very good hotels, attractive, clean and comfortable. All except for one had very good breakfast buffets. Buses were clean and comfortable and the bus drivers were excellent. The itineraries were very varied and seemed to hit the highlights of the places we went though I personally would be happy with seeing less churches.
The hotline staff was friendly and helpful. I bought the airport transfer from the Glasgow hotel. The UK transfer service is better than the Paris service. Overall, we enjoy the tour and will come back.
During our time in Berlin we stayed at the City Hotel Berlin East and we left my money belt in the hotel room put a do not disturb sign but a cleaner came in anyways, the beds are made with our pajamas in a different place and someone stole 140 USD cash from my money belt I have a record of borrowing 2 100 5 20 from Bonnie, and didnt use any cash at all on the trip, but the purple zipper bag was placed not in the usual spot when we returned tonight. In the same place was my credit cards citi Costco, capital one credit card debit card linked to our checking account, and our HSA debit visa passports IDs. already locked 3 cards but not the HSA one. need a police report in case theres fraud or identity theft.
Our family enjoyed the tour very much. We visited a lot of interesting places . Although there were instances that the group we have joined in the bus were not so good and nasty, but that’s beyond the control of the tour operator.

Our first two guides were really great. The travel experience with other passengers was, in general, good.
We have definitely made some good acquaintances that could become friends
