This trip was a last minute decision and it was one of the best that I have made. It was a very full itinerary but there was lots of time and a full explanation of what we were doing and seeing. The food was very good, as was the accommodation. Our tour director was extremely knowledgeable and the group size was just right.

The hotel choices are very near the city centers and accessible. The whole tour experience was made more comfortable by the very facilitative Tour Director and Coach Driver .

Lucerne was nice, as expected. A walkable neighborhood with old churches, chapel bridge and Lion monument within the city center. Except for the scenic train ride over the Bernina pass from St. Moritz to Poschiavo, through the UNESCO world heritage site, there’s not much to do in St. Moritz. The great train ride through Swiss Alps to Grindelwald was enjoyable. Enjoyed the panoramic view of the glacier from the Eiger and Jungfrau mountains via gondola and cogwheel rides. Most highlights are optional excursions though. It would be nice if the tour included a visit to an important museum. Thank you

We really enjoyed our trip to Japan! The itinerary allowed us to see most of the main things that we were looking forward to. We would have liked it if going to Tokyo Tower had been part of the itinerary. There was a good variety of optional experiences to choose from as well

This is a great itinerary, not too rushed or busy but plenty of beautiful NZ to see and experience. All the hotels were great with comfortable rooms, they just need to learn how to cook bacon and eggs 😉
