The trip was superb although the walking tour is too tiring especially to the more senior ones. but it is worth it. The hotels are good except the one in Paris that we are placed in an area that is not so friendly for tourist.

Hi
Just a feedback on the transfers for your kind attention.
The transfer to and from the airport at Paris was extremely short of expectations.
1. From Paris airport to hotel, while the flight landed at 8:04 PM at Paris and i was out at Arrival hall after immigration and collecting luggage by 8:25, i was informed on enquiring (since I did not see anyone from the transport company) that since the flight arrives at 8 PM, their service is at 9 PM. In fact i was questioned how i was out in 25 mins. This is absurd way of treating and wastage of time. I waited for 30 additional minutes and reached hotel at 10 PM which could have been slightly earlier,
2. On outbound from Paris hotel to Airport, the initial time for pick up was shared as 5:30 AM, whereas my flight was at 10:30 AM! Time taken to reach airport max is 45 mins. So i changed the same to 6:45 AM. Prior to day of departure and even morning of day of departure i was informed that driver would arrive by 7 AM. Accordingly i was ready and waiting since 6:45 nevertheless.. when driver did not arrive by 7 AM, i enquired again and was informed that he would arrive by 7:30 AM. Since it is expected to be prudent to reach airport 3 hours prior to departure, again this would have been late to airport. Subsequently, i had to remake alternate arrangements (Uber) to reach on time.
I believe, you/ MMT should take this up with Europamundo for better services next tome.
Also on the overall scheme of the package,
1. Some of the hotels left a lot desired - Caen (A/c issue), Novotel Paris Est (3-5 June) was a twin bed room and half the things were broken AND hotel at Rocamoadour made me change rooms twice since A/c was not working,
2. The trip was a drag with too many days spent on visiting Chateaus - count could probably be limited.
3. Some of the places had nothing to do or visit like Collonges-la- Rouges
Overall this would be a 3.5 / 5 kind of a score on overall terms from Europamundo side.
Overall it was a great vacation. The tour leader (Matt) was professional, knowledgeable and funny. The coach driver (Alex) was great too. They worked well together and gave a constant calm feeling to our group. Our leaders had a few obstacles to overcome and they handled them without us ever needed to worry. A few suggestions from Matt made our trip even better. We ate with different people each night, we rotated seats and made friends for a life time. Life changing experience.

Interesting stops but a bit too much on WW I.
Tour of Quarry too long & too much standing. No place for a break.
Enjoyed Normandy & Minen Gate very much.
Our tour director was awesome! He listened to us & adjusted as he could to accommodate everyone.
Loved the very small group size!
