Full on itinerary but gave an overview of the gems that can be found in Europe. Brek & Enzo were a good team that showed support to all members of the tour. The fast pace of the tour would suit ages 45 to 60 depending on how fit/mobile they were. The heat in the last week of the tour challenged everybody. Brek was very supportive over this time. Enjoyable tour because of where the itinerary took us.
