Jam packed trip seeing the best sights of the UK and Ireland. The trip is fast paced and not a lot of time to immerse in each town but enough to see the sights and move on. Would recommend this trip for anyone wanting to see the highlights of the UK and Ireland with the knowledge of a trip manager to point out history and recommendations for activities food etc. Over the 18 days, I had so much fun which can be attributed to the enthusiasm of the trip manager and driver to make the trip enjoyable for us travellers.

Coast to coast, city to city, the European Quest is el perfecto! Balancing everything we love about being in Europe. Stunning days spent on the coast of San Sebastian, cultured nights bar hopping in Prague, and enough time in Italy to leave you up to your eyebrows in pizza.
The logical path taken to cover the places in the trip was good.
The trip should include more time in London, Scotland and York and not in Cambridge or Durham. Everything was closed in Durham by the time we reached and we could hardly see anything. Also the hotel room provided in Durham was not at all up to the mark.
Also, our family of 3 adults have travelled together and the rooms provided everywhere were double rooms converted to three-bed. There was no space to move around. Instead we should have been provided with one double room and one single room.
The guide was Spanish and was just able to speak in English. At times we found it difficult to follow him due to his strong accent.
Raquel, our guide for Scotland trip is a very helpful and patient. I give her 5 stars. Sometimes,the audio for the whisper is a bit difficult to comprehend. Overall, the trip is enjoyable. The hotel staffs are very friendly.
Enjoyed this trip and all the optional choices. Weather couldn't have been better. Food was good. Free time and tour experiences were nicely balanced.
Tour Guide and Bus Driver was great. I was traveling solo and felt safe.
The one thing that could have gone better, was accommodations. The Leonardo Hotel in Cardiff and Liverpool was not a good experience. The room was not clean, carpet, window treatments and furniture was old and in bad repair.
From vibrant London to dramatic landscapes and the quintessentially English villages of the Cotswolds, experience the best of the countryside of England. Take in the famous sights of London, and explore the rugged coastline that’s inspired poets, writers, and filmmakers in Cornwall. Explore the stark landscape of Dartmoor, spending two nights in a neo-Elizabethan manor house, and soak in the idyllic scenery of the Cotswolds. Encounter history, eat like the locals, and discover what English life is like on a journey from the capital to the southwestern coast of England and the Cotswolds.
This trip was interesting and well organised with a variety of stops and areas of interest. We listened to stories by Kevin, which were told in an engaging and compassionate way. Wayne, our driver was also very caring and always helped us off the bus! Both Kevin and Wayne were professional and experienced professionals. I just loved seeing the United Kingdom, especially Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Not afraid of frocking up in a kilt and jumping on the bagpipes? Perhaps you've got some Scottish blood! And lucky you if you do. Home to mystical castles, glorious highlands and enough whisky to booze the Loch Ness Monster, you'll be head over heels with all things Scottish by the time your week of adventure with 35-45s is up.
Wonderful tour, from the coach and drivers to the tour guides knowledge of each place we visited, plus the abominations and hotels were great experience
