Very fast paced. Unfortunately, we arrived at some destinations at night, so sight seeing/picture taking was limited. All hotels, with the exception of the one in Greece, were very good. The one in Greece smelled very bad, had no shower head, I had to go down to the reception to request light bulbs.
Bus was very comfortable, sights were wonderful. Rumi, the tour guide is amazing. She made the trip.
Overall, wonderful experience
The hotels, coach bus, and ferries were clean and comfortable. Inga, our tour guide, was friendly and very knowledgeable. Piotr, the coach driver, was excellent at navigating the narrow roads. Overall, this was an excellent way to see the Nordic Countries.
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 .
I didn't know what to expect, all I can say is was fantastic. Luke & Craig were exceptional they couldn't do enough for us, nothing was a problem. Luke is the best tour leader we've ever had. His knowledge about history & places were amazing. Craig's driving was exceptional & his thoughtfulness was over & above. They work SOOOOOOOO WELL together. Thank you XPat for placing them as our tour leader & driver.
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.
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.
I was not sure about the tour but I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. My fellow travelers were really great and easy to get on with. My tour leader was Luke Watson and I cannot fault him at all for the tour as he was quite knowledgeable with his narrations about the upcoming destinations. Also, I have back issues and he was great with making sure that I was comfortable with the walking and would encourage me to take it further. Paulo, our bus driver was the best with his driving skill and his kindness.

Italy was a fantastic trip for us. Wonderful fellow travelers and a first-rate guide. We were able to see and do things that would not have been easily accessible to a large group or individuals, and it was a fantastic balance between structure and free time. Strongly advised
I recently had the opportunity to embark on a wonderful tour of Italy, and it was an experience that will forever hold a special place in my heart. From the moment I set foot in this beautiful country, I was captivated by its rich history, stunning landscapes, and warm hospitality. Our journey began in Rome, where ancient ruins like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum transported us back in time. The grandeur of the Vatican City left me in awe, especially when I gazed upon Michelangelo's masterpiece, the Sistine Chapel ceiling. As we ventured north to Florence, I was enchanted by the art and culture of Tuscany. The Uffizi Gallery and Florence Cathedral were absolute highlights, and strolling along the Arno River at sunset was a truly romantic experience. Our tour continued to Venice, where the intricate canals and ornate architecture made me feel like I was in a fairytale. A gondola ride through the narrow waterways was a dream come true, and exploring the historic neighborhoods of San Marco and Dorsoduro was a delight.
