We just got back from the Best of Europe (22 day tour) and it was an amazing experience, but group travel is not for everyone. If you want to meet new people to explore Europe with & can handle being on a schedule - then group travel is for you. If you want to isolate yourself, have trouble with compromise, and are looking to complain about your fellow travelers and the tour guide - then group travel is not for you.
Emma (tour guide) was amazing and reminded professional throughout the tour. She was always willing to answer questions and give a quick history & language lesson about the different cities in Europe. She made the entire trip enjoyable and manageable as she is an excellent communicator.
As for the tour itself, there are a lot of cities and, at times, it's hard to keep them straight - but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This tour gives you a good sense of what Europe is like and where one may want to visit again. The local tour guides were very good for the most part

Greek Island Wanderer was just as described in the itinerary. Every day was fun packed and busy. The hikes we did were amazing but there was always an alternative if you didn't feel like hiking. The extra trips were fun
Our leader Christos, was amazing. He was knowledgeable and very helpful with any problem that arose.
This is a great way to explore the Greek Islands and I would highly recommend .

Experienced a lot of Spain and Portugal; learned a lot about the two countries, had a fun, entertaining, informative leader/guide, and good people to travel on tour from around the globe.
I had the most fantastic time island hopping through Greece. The views were absolutely beautiful, but a lot of it was due to our fantastic trip manager, *Personal details removed by Feefo*, who made sure that we were having a fantastic time all the time no matter what we were doing no matter where we went. He went above and beyond and made sure that even during our free time when he didn’t need to that, we were having reservations at dinner or going out somewhere fun and having drinks and he just did a really absolutely fantastic job. And although my group was smaller than the average and made it so it was really intimate and that we were able to connect with the other travellers on the group, and I made some lifelong friends. And of course Greece is absolutely and incredible country and has some many amazing things to see.
I absolutely loved the tour! Istanbul was far more mysterious and grand than I ever expected. Our driver, Melih, was incredibly friendly, honest, and always willing to help. His genuine nature added a special touch to our trip. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to discover the true magic of Istanbul and Cappadocia.
This tour was a wonderful experience. A nice size at 28 happy people, luxurious coach, amazing driver & guide extraordinaire . Accommodations were very good & often pleasantly out of the ordinary. The optional activities are worth the extra expense. Highly recommend this tour.

The Taste of Greece tour starts at Athens and Ends in Athens at the same Candia Hotel where in the rooftop have swimming pool for cooling down overlooking a magnificent view of Acropolis. The timings and arrangement of daily activities were spot on on time, not hectic and no pressure affect on me or anyone I think. Smooth planning of our tour leader Marty is the key to all that smooth run. Thasos our Greek God driver made a huge contibution as well for our safety and safe travel of all places we went to. Our Coffee stops and bathroom breaks helps us stretch up and able to get our snacks along the way, so I never seen anyone uses the toilet in the coach. Cold water is also available for your purchase at Fifty Cents Euro at the Coach. Everyone elses get along very well and we have our favourite Greek music played along to warn you or a waking up sign as we are very close to our destinations. The tour guides hired for history telling were all so knowledgeable, facts and use of photographs
We are on our last 2 days of our tour and it has been great, We have a great tour leader and bus driver and the included tours and dinners have been great aswell we will definatly be using expat again in the future.
