The hotels were well chosen and offered really good food. It's important to realize that much of the travel is not prearranged, but we were not high season so were able to book everything we needed. It would be better to arrive from Oslo than Bergen.
El viaje estuvo muy bueno y los guías son muy amigables.
Por otro lado considero que deberían mejorar el manejo del itinerario en Europamundo. He viajado varias veces y por lo general tienen muy pocos recesos para comer merienda o ir al baño. Hay muchas personas mayores que viajan y posiblemente tengan sus condiciones de salud. Creo que añadir recesos de 15 a 20 minutos para comer una merienda o ir al baño debería ser añadido al itinerario para cada 2-3 horas. No es saludable estar desde las 6:30am con el desayuno hasta las 1pm o 2pm para almorzar. Para mantener una alimentación saludable se necesita comer cada 2 horas haciendo comidas y meriendas. El viaje de Corea del Sur fue el único en donde hubo varios recesos necesarios y se pudo lograr cumplir con todo lo planeado para cada día.
Otra cosa a considerar es que si hay alguien que termina un tour antes que los demás y se queda un día más en el hotel, el guía debe asegurarse de hacer esta explicación de las personas que NO van a hacer check-out en el hotel. Me pasó que el tour continuaba hacia Noruega mientras me quedaba un día más en Dinamarca y le dieron check-out a todos los huéspedes de Europundo incluyéndome a mi y a mi esposo. Tuvimos que esperar a que el hotel aclarara las cosas para dejarnos quedar una noche adicional que ya estaba pagada y era parte del paquete. El muchacho del hotel fue muy cordial y nos ayudó. Pero creo que esto se pudo haber evitado si uno de los guías hubiese explicado y aclarado los huéspedes que iban a dar check-out ese día y los que se quedaban una noche adicional.
Trip was great on the whole ....only if you could include some Indian vegetarian dish in breakfast...as there were good number of Indian people on trip

Really a pleasant experience to travel and interact with other nationals.We could exchange tourism related matter with them.Altogether a rewarding experience. Having said that, I would like to highlight one issue which was not resolved during tour. We were told by Traveltours, Kochi that everyday,the passengers would be shifted to Citycentre wherein we could dine at our choice resturants and would bedropped back to hotel.Not even on a single day did this happen. To ourquery we were told that the hotel is close to city centre. In Oslow, the hotel was far away from city centre. This has put us,vegetarians, into some avoidable trouble.Hope Europamundo will look into it.

I have attached the evaluation on this trip that my Husband and forwared to Tourradar:
I have referred Tourradar to numerous friends and family and will continue to do so. Our Germany-Norway trip was outstanding We have done a lot of travel but never enjoyed a trip more thanks to Europamundo and our guide Julio Villar, we have never had a more conscientious, hardworking, enthusiastic guide. We knew nothing about Europamundo when we reserved two trips to Europe this year ended up with them as the Tour Company. After the Germany-Norway experience we knew we hit the jackpot with Europamundo Julio .
In another 90 or so days we take off for the Lisbon-Rome adventure, I am aggressively petitioning Europamundo to assign JULIO VILLAR to lead the tour. We have solicited nine other friends family to join us they are paid confirmed for this trip. We will continue to promote TOURRADAR EUROPAMUNDO JULIO VILLAR as the ONLY people to travel with.
Regards,
Lynn Desmond
PS. Please send a note to the Europamundo management and let them know what an assest they have in Julio Villar.
The itinerary was very rich & well packed with interesting & scenic spots & activities.
English guide Ricardo could have done better in communicating tour logistics & site background info, especially when Portuguese or Spanish was also presented.
