1st time doing a group tour with expat explore and it didn't disappoint. Our tour guide Justin was really good and was very knowledgeable of Prague, Vienna, Slovakia and Budapest. Prague is just an amazing place to visit, I recommend all the optional excursions with the exception of the folklore show. Vienna is a great place, the food is incredible. Bratislava proved to be a charming day tour so don't skip it! Budapest exceeded all expectations and the overall vibe / style reminded me of NYC (in the mid 90's) and very safe. Whatever you do it seems that the heart of the nighlife is right in the Jewish quarter so don't pass on it.

TD and driver were so much fun and made our trip even better.
