This trip was absolutely amazing! It has wonderful scenery and architecture. The history of these countries make you think about humanity and the resolve of people. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history and geography of the countries. The hotels were centrally located, clean and very comfortable. The extra excursions were fun! Best of all the people that were in our group were extremely friendly!

Really enjoyed the tour although it included very long driving hours on some days. Packing lighter would definitely have helped in getting around more easily as we changed hotels almost every day and some of them had a small walk from the drop off point. The group itself was amazing with the tour leader Darius being helpful and attentive. Our driver Pascal was excellent and we had bathroom stops every 3 hours or so in nice service stations having good food and snacks options.

I was disappointed that we wernt told our tour group would change.
I dont believe children should be allowed on this kind of tour as it was unfair on the other passengers to listen to screaming children and babies on long bus rides.
People who are late need to be given a more decent talking to as the same couples were always late to the bus always putting us behind schedule
We just got back from the Best of Europe (22 day tour) and it was an amazing experience, but group travel is not for everyone. If you want to meet new people to explore Europe with & can handle being on a schedule - then group travel is for you. If you want to isolate yourself, have trouble with compromise, and are looking to complain about your fellow travelers and the tour guide - then group travel is not for you.
Emma (tour guide) was amazing and reminded professional throughout the tour. She was always willing to answer questions and give a quick history & language lesson about the different cities in Europe. She made the entire trip enjoyable and manageable as she is an excellent communicator.
As for the tour itself, there are a lot of cities and, at times, it's hard to keep them straight - but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This tour gives you a good sense of what Europe is like and where one may want to visit again. The local tour guides were very good for the most part

Due to the time of the trip during winter it is a bit hard to get the full experience of the areas we visited due to the short days and sometimes the cold. But we had a good time and next time we travel to UK we well look at doing other parts of Europe. Thanks for good experience we had with your two travel guides.
