See earlier comments. Good way to see a lot of territory. What we did get to were wonderful sites. *Personal details removed by Feefo* was very knowledge and made all the difference in making each excursion truly meaningful. We definitely saw the “highlights”.
Overall, it was an enjoyable trip. Hotels were good, included meals were largely satisfactory, and two of the tour guides - Emmanuel Vinci and Esperanza - provided excellent service in terms of providing relevant information and keeping the group entertained with their informative and humorous style of explanation. However,I felt that some stops could be excluded and time given at some stops Carcassone and Arles should be reduced. Europamundo tours are excellent value for money and the arrival transfer included us a big plus in favour of the tour company.

This is really not a tour for English speaking tourists. We were the only ones on our bus. Maria was great at making sure we felt comfortable and know the history about the places we went. I didn’t like that we were bounced around from bus to bus and a different group everyday. Since we were the only ones that spoke English other than the guide, we didn’t really speak to anyone and make any friends. I felt like some of the stops could have been longer. We would stop at a cute village for 45 minutes and 15 of that would be standing in line for the restrooms with everyone else on the bus. Overall we were happy with the tour. Maria is the best and if she could have been with us the whole time it would have been better. I would recommend this if you speak good Spanish so that you could communicate with other travelers.
Europe the easy way- right way to tell what I experienced. I’ve done my fair share of planning trips in my 40s.booking hotels, figuring out trains, missing connections. This time, I wanted ease. These guys delivered. From the moment we landed in Paris, everything was taken care of: the transfers, guides, comfortable hotels, even entrance tickets to major sites.
We explored iconic French towns like Giverny and Amboise, and that day in Mont-St-Michel was something I’ll remember forever. The Spain portion felt like a warm breeze after the cooler French north..Montserrat’s mountaintop monastery was stunning, and I loved our time in Barcelona. The evenings were ours, which meant we could explore or just relax with a glass of wine.
I met people my age from across North America, and it was so refreshing to travel with others who wanted to experience culture, but not at a breakneck pace. Highly recommend for anyone who wants that balance of exploration and comfort.
