Wonderful trip! I strongly recommend several of the Optional Experiences to make the most of your time, including the sunset boat trip in Paris (you see the Eiffel Tower aglow!), walking tour of Hidden Venice, and walking tour of the Colosseum in Rome.
Be prepared to walk a lot (I hit 10-14k steps most days!) Be prepared for early mornings.
Really good trip, with some very pleasant companions and an excellent guide, Fabio. He seems to have a sixth sense and is always aware of what is happening in the group. There is a lot of variety in the scenery and climate, and the combination of big cities and smaller towns works well. The cycling wasn't intense, but wasn't super easy either. It seems normal these days to have a mixture of e bikes and conventional, but it worked fairly well. The food was good and reflected the local cuisine. All in all a great trip!

Amazing variety of experiences, excellent tour guide and local specialists. I also loved that Trafalgar supports local artists and family run farms. A highlight for me was the Make Travel Matter experience with the weavers.

My experience with G Adventures was absolutely incredible. This was my first time travelling and I couldn?t have asked for a better way to do it. As a female solo traveller, I found that G Adventures was a great way to travel while creating friendships and feeling safe. The CEOs are absolutely phenomenal and add so much value to travelling, especially if you don?t know too much about the destinations you?re travelling to. Everything is so well organised and coordinated. Can?t wait for my next G trip.
