It is a multi-country tour in a small amount of time. You see a lot, but it's so fast paced that you don't really have time to enjoy it. You have to be in fabulous shape or else you will struggle to keep pace. Even younger travellers had difficulty....very tiring. It's a feeling that you are on the clock all the time. It might be great for some people, but I prefer a bit slower pace where you can enjoy and take the time to remember what it is that you visited. The tour leader and bus driver did great with the limited time they had to organise all of the tour.
It was a short life changing experience that gave me the opportunity to see the world and make new friends from all over the world. It was a great introduction for world traval. Perfect for someone who is new to traveling.

I've been raving about this tour experience since I've come home. I can't say enough about Collette staff and our tour director Michael, everything was excellent! The only hotel I was disappointed with was the one in Brugge, but understand it's a historic building so can't fault them. Bed was very comfortable and rooms are large.
The river cruise was excellent and we enjoyed it greatly.
That said, for a group of seniors some of the walking was difficult. Everyone managed but up hills was hard in some.
The other issue on this trip was the lack of time for retail therapy. Either there wasn’t any time or it was brief. Our group always loves a few souvenirs but we just didn’t have time in some places.
We had a walking tour of Cologne but only 15 minutes for the Cathedral. It wasn’t anywhere near enough time. If I’d realized we continue walking but end up back at the Cathedral, I would have just stayed there. That was my biggest disappointment. As well as being in Strosbourg in a Sunday but unable to visit the Cathedrral at all. The line to get in was incredibly long and we didn’t have enough time to wait.
Both of these issues were very disappointing for me as I’d looked forward to seeing both.
Aside from those 2 major issues, it was great! Food was excellent and staff was as well. Marcus Graff is wonderful!
