Brilliant experience, but definitely a whirl, so if you are wanting to visit places for any length of time, this is not for you. This gives you a taste of places and from there you may decide to return to some to spend longer in them.

Extremely fast paced. Early starts to the day. 5am wake up calls.
30 minute (food drink bathroom) breaks to keep tour on time.
Need to be fit and able to walk for an hour back to bus ( Florence) or for 2 to 3 hour during walking tours.
Some bucket list items are just seen as you drive past or on river cruise.
Overall a good trip, due to above we saw a lot, travelling through many countries optional trips were good.

More transparency around the fact that you have lots of free time and no way of knowing how to use it best
Optional excursions ought to be built into the full price
Whilst it says all gratuities and tips are included they actually are not. Local guides expect a stated tip as well as the coach driver and tour director... significant amounts not revealed until after you book the trip
