This is a fast-paced tour. Great for ticking off lots of locations and highlights and covering numerous countries. The optional experiences are all worth it and great value. It should be mentioned that "free" days are only usually a few hours, so make sure you chat with the guide to find out exactly how much free time you have. But the experiences they provide are worth it anyway.

The multiple options advertised are not always available to choose from. Eg the first day in Amsterdam had 2 options advertised but only 1 was available on the tour. That was disappointing as we could have done a canal ride previous to starting the tour but expected it to be an option with the tour.
A couple of the Ibis hotels were not suitable as triple accommodation as they are way too small, especially the Paris hotel (my daughter slept on a fold out recliner chair, not a bed). Most people stayed additional nights, making this too small room not a nice note to finish on.
The itinerary was perfect and optional experiences available were also great. Just a couple of things improved, as mentioned above, would make this 5 stars.
