Sirma was terrific. She took us to little out of the way places (like the Kommittee bar) and really gave us a good overview of the city, Tirana history, etc. We wanted to sample some local cuisine and we definitely did (yum, barek). Highly recommend!

The second tour guide was great loads of information. The others spoke 2 mins in English and 20 mins Spanish. I feel one place to see in a day was enough and we could have seen more in each place.,As the traveling was a lot. Also the hotels at the beginning of the trip were to big and you felt like cattle being herded , I would have been prepared to pay a little extra for better hotel like the last be which was AC sestio Milan. Met loved people along the way .
Overall it was a great vacation. The tour leader (Matt) was professional, knowledgeable and funny. The coach driver (Alex) was great too. They worked well together and gave a constant calm feeling to our group. Our leaders had a few obstacles to overcome and they handled them without us ever needed to worry. A few suggestions from Matt made our trip even better. We ate with different people each night, we rotated seats and made friends for a life time. Life changing experience.

I left my KIPLING hand carry bag in the bus while we were in PRAGUE. We werent informed that they will change bus. So a different bus came to pick us up to bring us to the hotel. We informed Marcia our travel guide about my bag the bag of my seatmate. Marcia said she called your office and will coordinate with the bus operator. She even promised to call us for updates which she never did. I am just sad that no effort was done to find our bags.
