We saw so much of Europe and it was wonderful. A couple of more days in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria would have added so much. My wife and I still enjoyed this trip enormously.
The locations that appealed to me most were the Switzerland and Italy locations. I am someone who needs to do things with other people in order to be happy, so it was really nice to be able to find a person with whom i could explore the location of the day with during our assigned free time. I do wish occasionally to stay in some cities a little longer, either by free time or staying more days, but i understand the need for the current schedule. The schedule was a lot less hectic than i had initially imagined for my first tour bus type travel excursion and was pleasantly surprised at the overall trip, so i would definitely do it, though at this time i dont know where. I would be interested in touring again with some of the same guides, but i realize that is not a likely possibility.
I had a 20 day trip, so i had multiple guides throughout my tour. I had started with Lionel, then went to Linus, Angela, Incarne?, Abdel, and finally Mariano, on my last day. Although, not always enjoyable every moment, i did appreciate the greatly varrying styles of each guide. However, while they were all good in their own way, Incarne and Angela were my favorites due to their styles and interaction with the travelers, in terms of getting to know the travelers and their interests.
One thing i should improve upon for myself is to look at the provided information more carefully to determine what exactly is or is not provided. At the time i booked the trip i had not had a free moment to review all the information provided in the traveler information, so i would definitely take the time to research everything

Overall, it was a fun experience By the way, on our last day in Zurich, our guide was not Javier but Diego Bueno. All of our guides were very nice and approachable. However, Ms. Angeles, though very nice, did not seem to be very fluent with English.
From memorable sights to unforgettable nights, this is the trip to open your eyes to all aspects of Europe. Sip hot chocolate in front of alpine views and glow from head to toe with a warming Gluhwein in historic German cities. From laidback Dutch cafe culture via the vibes of Eastern Europe to the timeless beauty of Italy, plus food, fun & new friends along the way, this is 28 days of experiences to last a lifetime.

Liked the entire plan of visiting 5 countries in 17 days. It was well planned and executed, but the highlight was the tour leaders. Would like to give a shout out to Gaby who was really good with her work, she used to keep us engaged during the bus journey and give us all the details of the place we are visiting and what we should be eating / drinking there which was indeed very helpful. Kudos to Europamundo for organising these trips and helping us in exploring different parts of the world. Cheers
