These are full days packed with lots of information, the bus and all the people in it become family. You don’t have to be fit but there is a lot of walking. They help to get you into places where you’d otherwise have to queue up for hours. Amazing scenery
DO NOT GO ON THIS TRIP if you're not ok with joining a group that has already been happily travelling together for a week. This is NOT a standalone trip, you're joining partway through on the European Trail.

Itinerary was fully packed as expected. However, day available at London on 20th May was not correctly utilized. Of full available day, some people went for optional Windsor Trip and rest were left own their own to move about. It could have been well organized to include London Eye/River Cruse/Wax Museum/Hyde or Reagent Park etc for the all passengers as a whole even if costs entrance fee which may be charged in the total tour costs. Other tour operators always include these important tourist attractions in London.
Atleast two nights stay must be planned at important cities to make it enjoyable and less hectic even if some less important places need to be excluded in the itinerary. Rushing and trying to cover maximum cities kills the leisure time.
