The destinations and scenery were very nice. I do feel we were rushed in the later half of the trip and wished I had some more time in some locations. I loved the maps and hints of places to see in the limited time we had. I would have liked a bit more free time to explore. Since this was our first tour I felt it was overall a good learning experience. I might suggest that upon booking the trip you inform people on the currency denominations and look and best ways to exchange such. Also, information on transit systems with routes and best way to move around a city. Also, best way to get wifi and upgrade your phone so when you cannot connect. This would be helpful to new travelers.
During our time in Berlin we stayed at the City Hotel Berlin East and we left my money belt in the hotel room put a do not disturb sign but a cleaner came in anyways, the beds are made with our pajamas in a different place and someone stole 140 USD cash from my money belt I have a record of borrowing 2 100 5 20 from Bonnie, and didnt use any cash at all on the trip, but the purple zipper bag was placed not in the usual spot when we returned tonight. In the same place was my credit cards citi Costco, capital one credit card debit card linked to our checking account, and our HSA debit visa passports IDs. already locked 3 cards but not the HSA one. need a police report in case theres fraud or identity theft.
The Hadrian's wall trip was a perfect mix of hiking and touring the highlights of Northern England and the Lake District. Our guide Paul Cannon was very knowledgeable of the area being a native of the region. The places we stayed were inviting and comfortable.Overall the trip was all we expected and more.
