WOW, WOWW!! Without a doubt this has been a very memorable vacation! Expat explorer definitely DIDN'T disappoint!! My friend and I did the Europe Taster New Year 2024/2025 and we couldn't ask for a better Tour Leader, Firo and bus driver, Chris, they were simply SPECTACULAR !! They made sure that we were comfortable and safe! This dynamic Expat team were well organized, and went above and beyond for each of us. The food, the hotels, and excursions were amazing. Our Tour Leader Firo was outstanding. His knowledge and insight on the countries and cities we visited was impressive. In all of my travels, we truly rank Firo and Chris as one of our top tour guides. Thank you Expat team for everything!

Overall fantastic tour! Lots of destinations in a short amount of time. I would overhear people on the bus wishing we would be staying at a destination for longer as it is "not enough time", but this is named TASTER for a reason! Definitely a good trip to take for your first time in these areas, as you will get a good idea of where you would like to eventually spend more time at (spoiler- it will be everywhere). You have normally have an hour or two in the city centres to take pictures, shop, eat.. so use this time wisely. Definitely not a trip for relaxation, but would highly recommend. Firo the tour guide and Chris the bus driver were fantastic! Definitely entertaining and excellent at their jobs. I did this tour solo, but by the second morning, Firo made sure we would be comfortable and friendly with one another by then. Amazing how 40+ people are like one big family after a few days. So many amazing photo opportunities! We were always warned when and where to take extra precaution

Our tour (the European), went to so many incredibly beautiful cities and stayed at great hotels! All the included food was delicious and even though I didn't do all the possible excursions, the free time I got instead was worth it itself. Thank you to our tour guide and our bus driver who were incredibly funny and kind and actually helped explain a lot of local history to us. Once in a lifetime experience 10/10
