See earlier comments. Good way to see a lot of territory. What we did get to were wonderful sites. *Personal details removed by Feefo* was very knowledge and made all the difference in making each excursion truly meaningful. We definitely saw the “highlights”.

Marvel at Gaudi’s masterpieces in Barcelona, spot locals sipping pastis in Nice and admire Florence the home of Michelangelo and the Renaissance, as you circle the azure waters of the Mediterranean. Embrace the city of Pisa with a stop at the famous leaning tower, where Italian astronomer Galileo was said to have pioneered his theories of gravity. In France, work up an appetite in the medieval streets. In Spain, dine with the locals in Basque tradition with an evening of San Sebastian pintxos tastings, snack-sized tapas, while sipping on a refreshing glass of local Txakoli wine. In Rome, taste the seasonal flavours and of course, handmade pasta.
Great and diverse tour of South West France. From the busy cities to coast, Alps and countryside all were fantastic. Great tour guide and driver who were friendly, helpful and informative. Loved the convenience of being dropped close to locations and picked up in the right spot at the end.
