Best of Europe

The tour was excellent. Sonny was an incredible driver, prompt, friendly and kind. Our tour guide, Callum 'Blinky' Pyper, was full of historical and local knowledge, friendly, patient and kind. Both took very good care of us. We enjoyed all the excursions as they allowed for a bit more interaction with the local cultures.

Total whirlwind. Saw all the highlights of the 28 cities/regions we visited across, I think, 15 countries in 22 days. Tour was well organized and excursions were fun and allowed us to experience more of the culture. Lots of early mornings and late nights but that was expected. Sonny was an incredible driver, friendly, prompt, engaging and kind. Our tour leader, Callum ‘Blinky’ Pyper was friendly, full of historical and local knowledge, patient and kind. We couldn’t have asked for better people to guide us on the tour. Our fellow passengers were an eclectic fun mix of nationalities and cultures which made the trip even more enjoyable.

Tour was well organised to ensure we had a taste of all popular tourist attractions, the tour leader (Callum Piper) worked hard to ensure we had the best experience. The coach driver (Sonny) was very skilled and made us all feel safe, nothing was too much trouble and he always had a smile. Would not recommend this tour to anyone with injuries.

Loved every minute. Knowledgeable tour guide enhanced the experience. Gained valuable travelling tips and understanding. 22 days of touring covered a lot of major cities and the optional experiences added local attractions and culture to our adventure.

We just got back from the EB (22 day tour) and it was an amazing experience, but group travel is not for everyone. If you want to meet new people to explore Europe with & can handle being on a schedule - then group travel is for you. If you want to isolate yourself, have trouble with compromise, and are looking to complain about your fellow travelers and the tour guide - then group travel is not for you. Emma (tour guide) was amazing and reminded professional throughout the tour. She was always willing to answer questions and give a quick history & language lesson about the different cities in Europe. She made the entire trip enjoyable and manageable as she is an excellent communicator. As for the tour itself, there are a lot of cities and, at times, it's hard to keep them straight - but that's not necessarily a bad thing. This tour gives you a good sense of what Europe is like and where one may want to visit again. The local tour guides were very good for the most part & were very knowledgeable about the history for their part of the world! I would highly recommend this tour for families (youngest guest was 14 years old), for couples, and older folks. I will say though, that there is a great deal of walking in Europe where the buses cannot access. The tour guide did a great job preparing us for not only the walking, but also how Europe is inherently different from America. In conclusion, expect early mornings and long walks, good times and good friends!
