This trip was a once in a lifetime, bucket list trip. We wanted to see Europe and found this tour to be exceptional. Our Travel Director - *personal info removed by Feefo* ensured that everything ran smoothly and efficiently. His vast experience allowed him to plan and revise plans to maximize our exposure to each of the areas through which we were travelling. His incredible knowledge of the areas and his entertaining stories and videos provided the background knowledge we needed to more fully appreciate the regions that we were in. His "little surprises" such as licorice, chocolates, Schnapps and Limoncello were the cherry on top of fabulous excursions, that solidified memories, as we left and embarked on our next adventure.
We also appreciated the flexibility of the tour to allow us to explore additional areas of interest of the group along the way e.g., touring Notre Dame, early one morning, before we moved on.
*personal info removed by Feefo* made a point of getting to know everyone individually and his personal touches helped each of us to maximize our enjoyment and comfort throughout the trip. He personalized the travel music and movies to suit his riders, often highlighting music from the areas of the world from wens we were from. The morning routines of introducing the travellers at the front and our morning tune - On the Road Again, will forever be a favourite and a reminder of the fun we had on the Coach no matter how long we were travelling that day.
Words do not do this experience justice. Trafalgar's motto of Making Travel Matter, added a depth to many of the experiences, as we experienced Family run businesses and learned how they contribute and support the local economy above and beyond the aspect of tourism.
I would highly recommend this tour and want to thank our
Travel Director, *personal info removed by Feefo* for making our first trip to Europe a trip we will remember fondly forever.
From the beautiful Baroque churches of Budapest to the haunted castles of Transylvania, this ten-day journey across Eastern Europe provides a fascinating insight into an intriguing region. Learn about the failed Turkish invasion of Eger and take a wine cellar tour in the Valley of the Beautiful Women. Become acquainted with traditional Romanian culture and customs in Maramures. Tour the medieval churches of Brasov, including Bran Castle and dine with a local family on an overnight homestay in Viscri.

This jam-packed journey perfectly introduces two Eastern European treasures, soaked in fascinating history and featuring modern-day delights.
Embark on an express journey from Romania to Bulgaria, finishing in Istanbul. Absorb Bucharest’s atmosphere on a guided walking tour, compare age-old places of worship in Sofia and breathe in crisp alpine air on a hike in the Pirin Mountains. Meander back in time in the Old Town of Plovdiv, see Veliko Tarnovo's imposing Tsarevets Fortress and learn about the distillation process and history of rose oil production at a family rose distillery in Sofia. This 10-day trip is a fascinating insight into just how much regions can change as you cross national borders!
This tour was so much fun. Learnt a lot, met a lot of new friends, and had a ton of fun. Would highly recommend this tour, and to travel through Europe in general.
Did alot that I didn't even know existed, like Modena balsamic vinegar...wow. I thought the tour leader was very accommodating for folks with different energy levels .
Fast-paced fun with tons of socialising, bucket-list sights and good times all round.
So your boss only gave you two weeks leave? Lucky for you this firecracker of a Euro trip fits so perfectly into 15 days it’s almost too good to be true. Get a taste of Europe with the big-gun cities, the bucket-list items and alllllll the carb-loaded, cheese-topped, sugar-filled delights that only Europe can deliver. There’s not really a better introduction to Europe than this.
The tour was well planned and the guide was amazing and very knowledgable. We were a great group of people, great guide, and a amazing tour itinerary. Can't really ask for more! Thanks
The itinerary was busy, always on the go. How I wish there were more times to do shopping.
Some hotels can be better. But our travel director, *Personal details removed by Feefo* and Coach driver, *Personal details removed by Feefo* , were fantastic.
was an excellent tour manager and he had a great sense of humor. The driver was amazing as he maneuver the coach in tight spaces. We had the right balance of “on the move” and free time. The cities we visited were unbelievably magnificent. It was the week before Easter. I enjoyed the Easter markets and got the Krtek I was looking for. The local guides were well chosen and augmented the history I had researched before going. Great trip. Would travel with again.
We had the best time on the Scandinavian tour. We met some really nice people from all over the globe and had a wonderful time together. Our tour guide Luke was the best. He has the nicest personality, made us laugh and full of knowledge. Our tour guide Brian wax the best as well and got us to all our destinations safely. The two made a great team and gave us the best experience.
Loved the scenery, company, tour guide. I've learnt a lot and appreciate a good knowledgeable guide. I enjoyed every minute of the tour. A activity day 1 like a thermal pool would have been a great ice breaker.
