Eastern Europe Tours in July 2027

If you love history then Portugal has it in spades. If you love beautiful scenery Portugal (for a small country) has all the beauty you will ever find in this world. Small towns, even smaller towns, and big cities with the most amazing lakes, mountains, vineyards, farms, beaches and most important the loveliest people you would ever meet. This itinerary took me from top to bottom of Portugal, on a smooth riding coach, with an incredible safe driver, who knows all the high and low turns in every road like the back of his hand. I felt so comfortable with the patient host and many guides, provided, who you just knew had planned perfectly with their guests in mind. There is no doubt they love their country and had the all the knowledge needed, and then some to impart to their guests going along for the greatest ride.

You see all the key highlights of Italy. Our tour guide, was great. He told us lots of interesting facts about the areas we visited plus more as we traveled on the bus. The bus driver, was amazing. This was an incredible and busy tour.

This is a well-planned and well-executed itinerary. Each day's activities did more than just give us the highlights of each area that we visited. The variety of activities enabled us to get a true idea of where we were. They included walking tours, bus rides, train rides, a boat ride in a fjord, a private museum visit, and a concert. Hotels were luxurious with old world European charm. The were wonderfully located and allowed us to explore the area when we had time on our own. The dinners that were included featured the best of the various cuisines.

Unlike the dense Amazon rainforest, the Pantanal is more open and flat, making wildlife easier to spot. Over 650 bird species, including hyacinth macaws, Toco Toucans, Greater Rhea, jabiru storks. Jaguars (we saw Three!) We also saw Capybaras, giant river otters, caimans, tapirs, Coati, Howler and Capuchin Monkeys, Azara's agouti, tamandua, Crab eating fox to name a few!

Our trip was beautiful. We enjoyed walking through the cities and being immersed in Italian culture. Great Travel Director and Driver . Great Local Specialists. We had a really good time!!! Hotels were nice, coach was very clean and new. We will always have great memories!!

It was a great trip Mel was fantastic explaining everything in detail. Seeing the Katherine Gouge in the morning was beautiful. The breakfast made the cruise very enjoyable and I would highly recommend it
