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.
5 star experience, from first day pickup at the airport to the last day of the tours, even English speaking groups are small4 ppl they have dedicated English speaking guides with us most the time
I don't like planning trips and couldn't find a time that worked to travel with a friend, so decided to go on a group tour, and this trip was a great choice! I was really impressed with the organization of the trip, I loved the mix of planned activities and downtime, and I'm really glad I went.

The tour guide was great. I wish that the itinerary matched the catalog itinerary because when I signed up for the tour I thought we would go to Lake Como I thought we were going to go to Port Venice but that wasn’t what was happening. Other wise the trip was great
Bring long bus days and not able to use the toilets on the buses whilst travelling with children was very inconvenient. Having stops of only 20 mins at the Berlin Wall then going on to have hours in places of nil importance was disappointing. Overall it was s good trip.

We love to travel ,and we love to travel with groups too, because we find this very convenient. You find everything ready and you hear all about history etc etc.In this case the tour was so full, no one gives you a full day tour on your last day, its always breakfast and you end there. The hotels were extremely good, when we travel on our own we dont book such hotels, we always go for cheaper. The breakfast was always very good too. The itenary is full and all tour guides were so nice and helpfull.The only thing I would like to suggest is that,there was to much time in Puerto Banus with nothing to do and too little time in the next stop in Ronda. But other than that everything was so great, and thank you for the little surprise you gave my partner Joe Chircop on his birthday ?? ?? ?? ??
