Loved this tour, fast paced but not too much, really well structured so you felt you saw all of the must sees in Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Highlights have to be the Fjords and ABBA Museum. Used good hotels, all comfortable, great breakfasts and close to good public transport. Did most of the optionals and would really recommend them, they were usually far cheaper than doing it yourself. First tour with Expat, they offer really good value and we will be using them again

I have been dreaming of traveling to Turkey for a long time. I had initially booked this tour in 2020 and clearly it had to be cancelled. Five years later, my expectations were exceeded by this tour. The rich history, culture, the food and the beautiful people of Turkey— this is a trip not to be missed!

It was planned very well by Trafalgar. Hotels were nice, food was good, but the walking distances to and from the bus were more than we were expecting. We are glad we took this trip because we saw so many great things, but in hindsight it was probably too much walking for us.
The whole itinerary was fantastic and I loved every minute of it. My only comment relates to finding places to purchase lunches and getting back to the bus on time. Some towns required a long walk to find a food outlet which then puts you under pressure to return to the bus.

We enjoyed almost a week in Portugal touring Lisbon and the surrounding areas. Our guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable about the area, history, and culture. We highly recommend hi and Destination Services Portugal - they both exceeded our expectations and made our time in Lisbon memorable.
Excellent trip covering a wonderful variety of Ancient archaeological sites in Athens and the Pelopponese.
