I feel there were missed opportunities. Too much time spent being dropped off at malls/shopping centers. I understand free time but one was for a payed excursion. Payed a lot of money for excursions to go to a park and a shopping centers
We saw a lot of cities, and went to places we would not be able to on our own, the tour director had a lot of knowledge and always gave us so much information and history of the places we visited, as well as the culture and cuisine. Restaurants were well chosen and always local, as well we were given an insight from different perspectives, loved every moment spent in Germany was sorry it had to end.
