Overall experience was good except some issues.
Some hotels were not good for stay due to poor breakfast, location and even one hotel had two portions, one for Europamundo and one for other guests and the items were different too. Tour leaders were good specially Juan a. However mr Abdul Salam was the worst. He never took a flag during the walking tour and he was just like boss and not cooperative and very rude. He changed the scheduled itenary of his own and when confronted he said he has the authority to change

I've been raving about this tour experience since I've come home. I can't say enough about Collette staff and our tour director Michael, everything was excellent! The only hotel I was disappointed with was the one in Brugge, but understand it's a historic building so can't fault them. Bed was very comfortable and rooms are large.
