Overall, this was an amazing trip to be introduced to Europe and experience a little bit of everything there. If you are thinking about opting out of a tour service like this and figuring it all out on your own, I would advise against it. There are a lot of cultural and social differences between these countries that a cursory internet search will not make you aware of. The tour guide's guidance is really what allowed us to be safe and not clueless while exploring, and the tour also highlighted a lot of the activities and locations that were actually worth doing. I feel like I truly maximized my time in Europe and did not waste a moment. At this price point, I doubt you would be able to find anything as good. It was truly life-changing, and on the flight back I dreaded coming back home. Also, if you see Kevin Screene as an option for your tour guides, take him. Amazing person and an even better guide.

We had a wonderful trip to Istanbul via Greece. We had no problems with the tours, hotel accommodations or airport transfers organized by Eskapas Travel; they were all excellent. Each of our tour guides was excellent. The drivers were very good at their jobs and friendly people. I had an unforgettable experience with many good memories.
The blend of guided tours and personal time was perfect. I particularly loved the day in Seville; the city's vibrancy was contagious! The hotels were mostly great, with Porto being my favorite stop. I appreciated the professionalism of the staff and how smoothly everything ran. A must-do for anyone interested in the Iberian Peninsula.
Rome- baroque tour could have been a compulsory item, while Roman Forum as an optional instead. It was hard to navigate Forum without a guide as they didnt have good walking path and steep which can be dangerous in wet weather. An elderly lady in our group fell into mud area
Venice- the information tour is pointless waste of time, should have a walking tour instead. Didnt get to visit famous places like Rialto Bridge due to lack of time. We only had 5 hours in Venice in total including lunch, which was also documented in my photos time stamp. In the itinerary, it is supposed to be around 6.5-7 hours. was disappointed that I didnt get to finish exploring this lovely city.
Overall- trip was lovely, great tour and good management. Thank you to Europamundo for a well-planned and good tour. Good itinerary with a nice variety which caters to various tourists.
Raid- the tour guide was nice, patient, approachable, great Very responsible as well. 5 stars to him and the driver, and thank you for a wonderful trip

There was an interesting mix of people from various countries. Our guides were excellent - Ivana is kind, co operative and taking care of each minute details. As for passenger there was one lady from Argentina Ms ANDREA MUNOZ who was unpleasant to co passengers. She would not straighten her seat at all and this caused great discomfort as the coach was almost full and there were no empty seats to use. Anita for the Spanish market was friendly and helpful too.
As for the tour, the Jama Postojna Cave was breathtaking and awesome and also Plitvice National Park was a wonderful surprise. Rest of the cities were good.
Maybe a couple of days more in the program would have been idyllic as it got very hectic and tiring and border crossings took most of the time and hence rest of the program has to be rushed.
But it was a wonderful experience and most of the co passengers were very happy.

Hi,
Overall it was a nice and good trip but i would like to highlight some points.
1. Short duration of personal stroll in some places/towns.
2. The detailed itinerary was not respected. There was a day where we returned to the hotel earlier than mentioned on the itinerary.
3. Another day, we were given only 30 minutes to stroll around Rouen including dinner. How is that possible? we traveled 4 hours to reach Rouen from Paris only to visit and eat within 30 minutes?
4. Breakfast lack options, everyday we got the same things in 5 hotels we were staying. Too much pork options as breakfast and not everybody consumes that.
5. Diamond cutting factory was a waste of time as nobody was interested to visit this. The explanations were so dull and sleepy, they put 40 people in a closed non aerated room and we were all suffocating. I had rather stroll around Amsterdam from morning to evening.
Overall it was a good and nice trip but it could have been perfect.

The tour with Destination Services was great! Ysmail was very knowledgeable and patient to explain everything. Victor was very helpful with the luggages and made sure that the bus is clean. Hotel accommodations were nicely picked as well. The only thing I was not expecting was the 2 days that we were left on our own to go back to the hotel due to extra activities that we did not participate. Other than that, all great experience!

In general the trip itinerary was all that I wanted to do, however, there where many things that were foreseeable that where going to affect the trip and NO previous measure was taken, which eventually disappointed me of how it ended up being the trip. Things like the fact that Granada was going to be closed earlier and make us run to arrive on time but just let us be sitting in the hotel for a long time, or arriving very late to Fez and not having proper time to stay in the place could have been better handled.
In particular, I want to complain about the fact that we were suppossed to go to Alicante, we voted in the bus about skipping this city and two of us said NO to not going to the place and our guided decided to do whatever he wanted thinking we were joking. Not happy about my complaint, Abdel Salam (the guide) wrote to me in my personal whatsapp about his dissapointment of me complaining which I believe is extremly unprofessional.
The night of the 31st of December was also a huge dissapointment. And the lack of consistency and overall bad quality of the hotels was not in accordance to what you advertise in your brochures.
This was our first time to Europe and it did not disappoint! Right from day 1 the fun started! Jared was our tour leader, if you ever get the chance to tour with him, you are lucky. He was fantastic!!! His knowledge of the places we stopped was expansive and he made it interesting to learn the history! Florentin our driver was a rock for us! He got us safely to our destinations and always had a smile on his face! We forged friendships on this tour that made this the most memorable trip! We laughed a lot !!! I am so glad my daughter and I were lucky enough to have such an amazing tour leader, driver and fellow travellers that only made all the amazing places we saw, better! Thank you
