Venice Tours in January 2027

Italy is always a good idea, but this trip made it truly special! Everything was well-paced, the accommodations were top-notch, and we even had extra time for shopping and wine tastings!

I just got back from the 12 Day Christmas and New Year's EE tour (2023/2024) & being the 1st time I've been away from home for the holidays, I found it simply magical, everything I hoped for plus more.. This tour is fast paced with plenty of early morning departures and plenty of walking, but the trade off is that you get to experience as much as possible in each of the cities along the way. As a solo traveler, I never felt unsafe or alone and the camadarie of the group was instant. I also appreciate that this tour allows you the freedom to choose between various pre-set excursions in any given city and/or the option to go off and explore on your own and/or workout a hybrid of such with your tour leader. If you are on the fence about booking an Expat Explorer tour, I say do yourself a favor and just book it.

I feel like there were unnecessary arguments between other tour mates which Europamundo could have fixed or prevented. I liked how the tour allowed us to travel to many different countries in a very short time. The tour is also relatively cheap as compared to other tour companies. Overall, I am happy and contented with my travel experience with Europamundo because it is value for my money. Though there are a lot of other passengers, this is expected in a group tour. The local guides are relatively good and informative. The main issue is the lack of time given to the guides to properly tour us around the city. When it came to the optional tours, they were overpriced and mediocre at best. The guide was good but the time was limited. In terms of the optional gondola tour, it was overpriced at a 40 euros per person. This is almost double the advertised price in the city which was only 25 euros per person. In addition, the itinerary stated that the gondola ride would include 2 singers, but there was no actual singers on the day itself. Another issue was the Florence guided tour and its lack of time. Europamundo advertised it as a 2.5 hours walking tour accompanied by a local guide. This was far from the truth, as the tour lasted only a mere 1 hour. It is essential to note that the local guide was good, but the time provided to him was clearly not enough.

I loved the tour. It was very fast paced but we saw so much. The meals that were included were for the most part excellent. The add on excursions were well chosen and packed in even more. It was very good value for money.

My girlfriend and I were a bit hesitant before on going on a guided tour/excursion due to time constraints and tight schedule, BUT our expectations were proven wrong, and beyond! It was an unforgettable experience for both of us! To sum it up- Tour Leader Luke + 7 European countries= A Match Made in Heaven!

The tour was fun. I really like it. Gustavo was really organized and very informative with our trips. He is very knowledgeable with the places we have been. Gustavo is a very responsible tour leader and he made sure everyone are safe. Also, Alex was a very professional driver. Amazing long travel and alex drove safely. We had 5 star treatment these two great people!
