Really enjoyed this first tour with Expat. The tour leader was excellent, as was the driver. We bonded well as a group and there were very few issues. I personally found it quite tiring, but it was worth it to be able to experience what the tour had to offer.
We had a great time and enjoyed every part of the tour. Our tour leader Luke and our driver Brian are the best, always making sure we were safe and had a blast everywhere we went, plus their culture, history and geography knowlede is outstanding.
They make a great team.
This was our 4th Expat tour and can't wait for the 5th. (already planning it), it was the second time we had Luke as a leader and hope to have him again in future tours.
Breakfast was great in every hotel except for Karlstad.
The only reason why we don't put a 5 star in accomodations is Karlstad (definitely not good)
We were the first group to do the Catamaran additional excursion from Gdansk to Sopot and it was one of the best excursions, the Catamaran, the Catamaran crew and the dinner in Sopot were awesome!!!!!
Since it was a mixed nationals group very nice our guide was also very punctual very cooperative and informative. Hotel quality inn was not up to mark. No consistency in room facilities like no kettle water bottle or pantry that was little surprising. Overall experience was good.

Scandinavia has astonishing sightseeing for those who like nature or history. The experience was even better with Contiki. Ollie our trip manager and Tamas our drive provide a lot of historical information, curiosities and we were able to drive to some other places for sightseeing. Highly recommend it.
