The Expat Explore European Highlights tour in November 2024 was incredible! Every destination, from Venice's canals to Rome's ancient landmarks and Florence's Renaissance charm, was perfectly curated. The guides were knowledgeable, the itinerary seamless, and the autumn scenery breathtaking. Accommodations were comfortable, and the group dynamic made the trip even more special. This tour was the perfect blend of culture, history, and adventure—a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this itinerary highly. I have visited Italy before but each time I learn something new about the history and the culture of the Italian people.
This was our first group travel experience ever and we were delighted by how easy and fun it was. We are definitely sold on GAdventures as a company and plan on using them in the future and telling our friends and family about them. We chose GAdventures because we liked that their trips were not jam-packed, had free time and flexibility. This trip exceeded all of our expectations!

I had a really great experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect since this was my first group and first time in Europe and I was very pleasantly surprised. I met some great people from all around the world who encouraged me to try things I never would’ve done if I was alone. The CEOs reduced the stress of travelling and were fun to talk to. I would definitely do another G adventures tour because it was so fun!

I did the 15 day Spain and Portugal tour. Ten out of ten. Really packed, not a moment wasted. Lots of sightseeing. Marysol is absolutely great and is the best.

Overall a good experience. Enjoyed travelling with my family. Ms. Irene, our guide till Venice was cheerful, jovial, caring and helpful. Bus journeys were also comfortable. All the walking tour guides were good. But, Mr. Alex at Rome was best and Ms.Moica Gaetz at Vienna was `The Best with her knowledge and passion for history, art and culture. We liked that bus and walking tour with her at Vienna the most.
The hotel in Barcelona, Frontair Congress, was a very bad hotel. Hotel staff were rude. The room was dirty. The hotel in Lyon, Campanille, was also dirty and small. The breakfast was bad. Basic spoon, fork and plate were not available.
As for the guides, we were very happy with Abdel, Spain guide, and Diego Bueno, our Interlaken, Grindelwald and Lucerne guide. Both of them were empathetic on our needs. Their English was good. We understood them the entire time. Angeles, our guide in France, was nice but we barely understood her English.
Over-all, we were very happy with the Novotel hotels we stayed in, both in Madrid and Paris.
