The tour’s unique appeal is its extended duration, allowing for a deeper, more leisurely immersion into French and German culture.
Overall the trip was wonderful, and the itinerary and the places we visited were excellent. The included castles, boat, waterfalls and other activities were also great. Logistics was arranged perfectly. Some things for Europamundo to consider:
1. Your Spanish guide speaks for 40 minutes, but leaving the English speaking guide only 5 minutes before arriving to a place. This happened more than once, and specifically with Jonatas Chavery. Overall Spanish speaking passengers were a clear priority over English speaking passengers throughout the trip. We are grateful for the English speaking guides that EuropaMundo provided. Please tell the Spanish speaking guides to give EQUAL time in explaining on the bus. Alberto was excellent and translated immediately to English, so that everyone was engaged, and equal time was spent English/Spanish.
2. We are disappointed the EuropaMundo allows babies on the bus, and that babies are allowed to sit at the front instead of at the last seat in the back of the bus. They are annoying to everyone.
3. We had so many tour guides changes and buses that we did not even have a chance to appreciate them with a tip. Some drivers like Lyon – Tournus were very rude to us and complaint about having to lift the suitcases.
4. All buses should have charging capabilities and wifi. Only one bus had wifi
5. Guides should be instructed to have a comfort stop after each 1 ½ hours of travel. It is unreasonable to expect humans to travel 3 plus hours without a comfort stop.
6. The hotels this time were not as good as usually like is Spain. They were all very clean but IBIS was a disappointment and APPARTCITY was just ok. Breakfast was always excellent.
7. To the smoking guides, they should not smoke while they are talking to us and walking with us drop us. As soon as they drop us, they can smoke as much as they want. We do not need or want to inhale their smelly cigarettes. They also come on the bus smelling like an ashtray.
8. Comments concerning special locations: It was not enough al all 1 hour at Savigny Castle. We were not able to see the magnificent collections. Would be better to allow 1 ½ hours and remove that time from Beaune. You can also remove completely Freiburg and allow more time in Strasbourg or in Triberg. We never got to see Baden Baden or Marseille, we only slept there. Marseille hotel was excellent.
Overall this is my third trip with EuropaMundo and I hope to travel again without babies.

Positive note:

For improvement:
There are parts of Panoramic tour that time is very limited and impossible to meet the given time esp in London, they given us only 10 mins, including walking to the tourist destinations. Highlights in London are missing especially changing guards, English tea time that results for more free time and nothing to do in a very cold street. Should provide alternative activities, or they ask the travelers if they want to go back to the hotel to rest instead of extension of free tiem but nothing to do since almost all establishment are closed because of holidays. Same in Munich Germany, BMW museum was closed last new year. Europamundo must anticipated this scenario since holiday is fixed and they should know already that it was close so they can move other activities. This is very essential for us since this is considered as highlights in our itinerary.

Over all I had a wonderful time, I was only disappointed with some of our other passengers. A certain group of people were very inconsiderate to other passengers and particularly to our tour guides.
They consistently pushed in lines and shoved people out of the way, At one point I was pushed over doing my shoe lace up, my mum was pushed back into her seat as they were always in a rush to be first or at the front. Abrupt and loud when our tour guide was giving us important information and always requesting Indian food. There were times they had actual tantrums on the rare occasions this particular cuisine was not available and taking it out on our guides who were clearly doing their best and doing a great job at accommodating the entire group. I feel that in the future if there is a group of people with such direct demands to put them in a group of their own to improve the trip for other passengers and to reduce the stress that this would have caused the guides.

"I am very satisfied with the service. I rented an eBike for a period of one week. The price was completely acceptable, the staff met me and gave me very good advice on which bike to rent according to my expectations.
La Pierre turned out to be a complete hit. The bike was excellent and very well maintained. The bike has good autonomy. Of course, the autonomy that the bike displays is nowhere near real, but I managed to get to San Remo and back in one day, which is over 120 kilometers. Keep in mind that I am a cyclist, so I cycled that day with very little assistance. Even with a higher level of assistance, the bike easily covered 60 kilometers in very strong wind and with very serious uphills.
If you want to visit the Cote d'Azur, this is the way to go. Just some of the places I visited are: Monaco, Antibes, Cannes, Village of Eze, Col d'Eze, Villefranche-sur-Mer..."
