Balkans Tours in August 2027

Brilliant! Lots of different activities and locations to suit all travellers as it was a real mix of island life, cultural town and major city. Trip managers and local guides are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about your trip experience. Highly recommend.

Emma, our travel director made for the most magical trip. She led the group with knowledge and enthusiasm. We went to so many historical places and had the most amazing signature dinners. This trip is for the traveler who wants to see a lot of places in one vacation.

Everything was amazing from start to finish! I especially liked learning more about the ancient ruins of Troy and Ephesus from our guide who not only shared his knowledge but also stories of the time period that really helped.

We had a truly enjoyable experience on our Trafalgar coach tour in Spain. The itinerary was well thought out, balancing sightseeing, cultural experiences, and free time. Our Tour Director was knowledgeable, approachable, and made the history and culture of each city come alive. The driver was professional and ensured we always traveled comfortably and safely. Highlights included visits to iconic landmarks such as Barcelona’s Sagrada Familia, Seville’s flamenco culture, and Madrid’s historic plazas. The local experiences arranged by Trafalgar—like tasting authentic Spanish cuisine—added real value to the trip. Overall, the organization was smooth, accommodations were comfortable, and the group atmosphere was very friendly. This trip gave us lasting memories of Spain, and we would happily recommend Trafalgar to friends and family.

The itinerary is great but too many of the experiences were ‘optional extras’ making it a very expensive tour. Also some options were missed due to them being booked out - changed from the original info we received and because the tour guide didn’t book ahead knowing it was peak season etc. Disappointing.

Amazing leader Carlos. There were just 2 families in our group with large differences in age range. 8 year 12 and 14. Very different needs in the group (due to age range) but Carlos was brilliant at ensuring there was something for everyone. Kayaking was amazing with beautiful places, and the feeling of freedom on the open sea. He was good at engaging everyone to work together. My daughter wasn't strong enough to dive into the green cave but straight afterwards all the kids/teens dive bombed off the cliffs which she loved. And this made up for the disappointment of not seeing the cave. Really well organised and very enjoyable trip. Definitely recommend.
