The itinerary was great, perhaps a bit fast ie really didn't get enough time at places. Maybe future trips could include an extra day so Port Isaac could be included
Dream of a lifetime! ************ was so informative on every country we visited.
Gave so much about the places we seen, plus told us what we shouldn't do in some places. He made it a fun and knowledgeable trip.
Loved the organization of our Scotland trip! Steven, our guide, was excellent! Some of my favorite trips were Bosnia and Beyond and Baltics in Winter (older version). Great communication with the US office in planning.
