Christina organized a fantastic first class itinerary for a 28 day tour of Italy by my wife and me. She was very personable and generous with her time and very knowledgeable of the areas we visited. The trip included incredible private tours with top notch guides and smooth transfers all the way. Any minor glitches were handled promptly and professionally. It was a wonderful experience and we look forward to working with her again in the future.

From Amsterdam to Rome and onto Paris, this grand tour takes in Cinque Terre, abundant Florence sightseeing and a delectable Lucerne Dine Around evening. Start your tour with a curated cruise through the canals led by local experts—the perfect introduction to the Netherlands. Onwards in style into Germany, the Rhine's UNESCO world heritage sites give way to the golden city of Prague—where your local guide will lead you through the hilltop castle courtyards and the grandiose St Vitus Cathedral or through the Jewish Quarter. A tour of Italy serves up the gondola-filled canals of Venice and the opulence of Rome, before Swiss delights beckon in Lucerne. Paris dazzles last with a chance to shop the city's boutiques like a local and enjoy views of iconic sights, including Notre-Dame and the Louvre.
I had the most amazing experience and time of my life on this tour. Choosing G Adventures and the 'Gotta-See Europe: Germany, Austria and Italy' tour was one of the best decisions of my life. Our tour CEO Filip was incredibly enthusiastic and responsible, and he created the most fun and positive environment. The whole tour was incredibly well organised and I always felt safe, happy and relaxed knowing that someone else was taking care of the tour group. I was very fortunate to have such amazing people on my tour. We were able to bond so quickly as we all shared our love and enthusiasm for travel and these specific places. Every place we went to was so beautiful, rich of history and culture and truly unique. The included activities were so much and full of variety as we relaxed in lakes, went on bike rides, visited museums and much more. This tour was the perfect blend of free time and included activities. Through this I was able to not only have an extremely joyful and relaxing vacation but it also enabled me to achieve so many things including improving my skills for travelling without feeling the stress of having to figure this out alone in a foreign continent and on the other side of the world. I definitely recommend this tour, especially to young, solo and inexperienced travelers but really to anyone who has a passion for travel and who is open to meeting new people and trying new experiences.

This is not a usual tour but like a hop on hop off tour.. people joined and left our group at nearly every point along the way. We had six different tour guides not including the local tour guides. The tour was mostly Spanish speaking and the guides said everything in both English and Spanish which became annoying for both English speaking and Spanish speaking passengers.. Every optional outing was cancelled and the moulin rouge outing was booked for the 11pm show which didn’t finish til after 1am and had to be back on the bus at 7.30am.. there were children and babies on the tour which some might not like. The only time it bothered me was when the teething baby’s dirty diapers were put in the bin on the bus stinking out the back of the bus. One of the buses we were on for the uk leg of our trip was obviously designed to carry small children. The seats were tiny and the seat in front of you pushed on your knees and if the person in front reclined their seat it was only inches from your face. I couldn’t even look at my iPad as it wouldn’t fit between me and the seat in front and the air conditioner was not working on the first day.. I have never considered leaving a tour half way through before but I actually looked up renting a car to continue the tour myself.. we were taken to some places after close time like the tower of London when it would have made more sense to do the bus tour of the sites that evening and take us to the tower when it was open.. I did enjoy the tour as it was my first time in Europe and most of our guides were great but I would never book a Europamundo tour again
