I cannot think of one thing the whole trip was fantastic or tour guide Michela , was so fantastic. You truly felt that you were family. She explained everything told us what we expect ahead of time took care of everyone’s needs and still made it so much fun a bunch of us were in our 70s and upper 70s and did not feel that we couldn’t keep up with the tour because it was done so well I think one of the best vacations that we ever took
I really enjoyed this trip a lot compared to my other tours. Everything was very systematic. From country to another country to another city. And all the tour guides are very pleasing and accommodating. They were all versed with the names the culture tradition and everything with the place they were describing. On my next tour it will be Europamundo again.
The only sad experience was Monserat monastery was cancelled due to Easter weekend where it was closed....one of my to do lists...uuurgh Otherwise, it was well organised... event though we were with the South American group, our tour guide Ivan who is multi lingual was really good ..he imparts knowledge of the sites historically. We have enjoyed the tour very much...met new connections with the South American group .. we would go again with Europamundo for sure. At first we were a bit worried about the arrangements etc ..but it turned out great Even though some days the bus ride was long, we do have time to see places, eat, shop etc...well organised
Tour guides were great: Juliana, Pedro R. and Javier. Knowledgeable, friendly and dependable. The hotels were very good hotels, attractive, clean and comfortable. All except for one had very good breakfast buffets. Buses were clean and comfortable and the bus drivers were excellent. The itineraries were very varied and seemed to hit the highlights of the places we went though I personally would be happy with seeing less churches.
Overall the trip was pretty well organized. All tour guides we had were very knowledgeable and informative regarding cities and historic landmarks with enough details. Even though we were English speaking our trip included Spanish/ Asian speaking tourists as well. They did a pretty good job of accommodating everyone. I was under the impression our trip was with the same group from start to finish but was not the case and the group interchanged as we progressed along the route. Lots of logistics involved but it seemed to work alright.
