All good! I love especially our scheduled early arrival for each tour site. We were able to avoid a long queue or a crowd of other tourists. Hence, taking good photos of great sceneries! Attached photo was taken at the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria.

1) You do have time to explore on your own. 2) Verbs matter. "See" vs "Visit or Explore". We saw the Melk Monastery we did not visit. Seeing is not equivalent to experiencing. If you are going to see something and not visit, leave it off the tour description. Then when you see it, it is bonus not a disappointment. 3) The Winery was a great experience. 4) Our included group dinner was moved up a day to Vienna and it was thrown together and lacked the experience that it would have had in Salzburg. We had good service, but the food was meh.

Very well thought out and packed itinerary, made possible by the wonderful travel director, coach driver, and local specialists. Takes out a lot of the stress of traveling while still leaving a lot of opportunity for you to explore at your own pace if you want.

This was a beautiful Eastern Europe exploration at a spectacular time of the year. Europe at Christmas time is truly gorgeous and perfect to get around on tour with Trafalgar.
Jennifer C. | Traveled in December
Well organized and thought out. I really enjoy what Trafalgar has to offer. They look after everything making the trip easy. The Be My Guest experiences are really special and offer unique, unforgettable experiences. I really enjoyed Vienna and Salzburg the most but Prague is also a must see. Be sure to do the optional lunch in Budapest to visit Szentendre with great unexpected shopping! The Danube cruise had great food and unbelievable views. It was a great trip!
