A bit rushed, but good. Would have liked a bit more free time. All hotels were excellent, except Alex resort in Zermatt. Poor pillows and bed. Breakfasts were excellent. Can't say enough good things about tour director or driver .
Truly breathtaking! Cruising through the stunning fjords, witnessing the dramatic landscapes, and soaking in the natural beauty was an experience like no other. If you love nature and scenic beauty, this tour is a must-do!
All aspects of trip organisation were fine. The group leader was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable hand always smiling.
The trip is full on, mainly with one night in each hotel. The hotels are OK but many have things broken in the rooms and bathrooms with little ongoing maintenance.
This trip gives you a good overview of each country and knowledge of its history.
Our group Explore Leader, Filip Kolic, is highly professional in ensuring our trip is as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. He's quick in problem-solving and forward thinking for example he's on top of organising alternative transport back-to-back for our group when early news of regional floodings and landslides had caused disruptions of the railway and road connections to our next destination. Great job there as we were able to reach our next city to continue our planned guided city tour, although quite short. We managed to celebrate our trial & tribulation at a lovely quick dinner next to our hotel! All went well with extra National Park sceneries and travel experiences!

Clever to schedule Paris tours on the weekend when there is less traffic. The long bus rides were nicely paced to include good rest stops and small villages to walk about. Happy to discover Lyon, Nice and Avignon.
