Imperial Europe

This itinerary allows you to see a lot of different cities in a short amount of time. I like to see as much as possible when i travel so this worked well for me.

Too fast. Seemed to be pushing towards the deadline. Not enough time to enjoy each destination.

Beautiful old world cities with interesting histories and architecture. Learned a lot about the empires and politics of the area over the past centuries, along with the post-Soviet era changes and their hopes for their future.

Excellent tour guide **********!He was extremely knowledgeable about all of the countries in this tour!

The itinerary is full of but not overwhelming. There were plenty of optional excursions if you choose to participate. If you prefer some down time that's available. Would have been nice if the hotels were more centrally located to city centers.

Fabulous tour! Munich, Prague, Budapest, Vienna & Salzburg are mesmerizingly beautiful. Regensburg, Bratislava & Györ are enchanting too! I truly enjoyed this tour & the people I met.

It was not value for money. You had to purchase extra tours. We bought the Sound of Music tour extra and it was an absolute waste . Positives are that we made good friends that we have continued friendships with. Our tour group were all nice people. The included tours were informative, however more could be added rather than expecting people to purchase extra tours.

2 nights in Salzburg would have been perfect. Was a bit too much to do all the activities in 1 day.

A really great itinerary made excellent by , our fantastic Tour Director. So informative, humorous, and with personal attention to every detail. Our coach driver , also excellent and efficient. The only negative comment from me is that, particularly on a long busy day, some of the "free time" in crowded places was a little too long.

- Absolutely well organized, planned and executed itinerary - Expert and professional tour director, driver and local tour guides - Awesome tour sites with great cultural and historical significance - Excellent lodging and dining areas - Great opportunity to make new lifelong friends Thank you Trafalgar team! and

The time in each location was perfect and the experiences both included and optional were excellent.

Fabulous cities and excellent tour director in , with excellent coach and driver

I recently joined Trafalgar’s Imperial Europe tour, and it was an incredible way to see so much history, culture, and beauty in one journey. The itinerary was well-balanced between must-see highlights and unique local experiences. From the grandeur of Vienna and Prague to the charm of Budapest and Munich, each city offered something unforgettable. Our Travel Director was knowledgeable, approachable, and kept everything running smoothly, while our driver’s skill and patience navigating the busy European roads deserves a special mention. The accommodation and included meals were consistently good, with just the right mix of structure and free time to explore independently. If you want to cover a lot of ground in Central Europe without the stress of planning logistics, this tour is the perfect choice. Trafalgar makes travel effortless, and the experience left me with memories (and friendships) I’ll carry for a lifetime

Plenty of amazing optional experiences to choose from. Well planned out days with free time available

Overall it was a fantastic trip though we always got up early almost the entire tour which we normally expected. Our tour director was excellent he always answered our questions, very organized and pleasant. our driver was excellent as well and kind enough to load our luggages in the bus every time we moved to the next country. Kudos to both of them. However we’re not so pleased with the hotels in Munich - Leonardo Royal Hotel floors was so sticky and the bathroom was not the cleanest. Holiday Inn Munich we saw a bed bug in our bed I should have taken a photo. Not the cleanest as well. It was not the Holiday Inn that I expected. We enjoyed all the places that we visited specially Prague. But the optional tour of Lakes and Mountains I would not recommend it for people from Canada and US as they are the same or even better.

Very well organized, stress free

So organized! And such a wonderful variety of things to see and do, always with guides who were so knowledgeable!

The schedule was hectic, but manageable and allowed us to see some incredible sites.

A worry- free holiday choice with all logistics taken care of. Definitely suits single and part- family travellers (I travelled with my teen daughter). Wonderfully selected hotels -centrally located. Good standard with good included breakfasts. We did not elect to do most of the extra lunch time tours and so had a lot of time to sit in the parks of small pretty towns -lovely. Lots of local specialist guides which left me feeling like the tour leader was more a conductor or hostess on the bus.

The itinerary was very well coordinated. The tour guide director () was always available to the group for any concerns and questions. The bus driver () was very good with his skills.

Our tour director, Maya was incredible, knowledgeable, accommodating and fun. I did find that on some stops there was too much "free" time and would have preferred to be at our day destination earlier. I found 2- 2.5 hrs of free time was excessive inconsideration of the locations where we were at. The local experts were great and the fellow we had was so knowledgeable with many funny stories. This was our third trip with Trafalgar and Cost Savers and never disappointed. In my opinion the tour director makes the trip and we have been lucky enough to have 3 great directors

I loved the whole experience. The history, the culture, and the physical beauty of these places was awesome. Once again Trafalgar got it right.

The trip was very well planned and organized, and our Travel Director, did a truly spectacular job. Her engagement with the group and clear communication made a real difference—everything ran seamlessly without a single issue throughout the tour. The places we visited were wonderful, and the local guides were very knowledgeable. Both breakfast and dinners were excellent. I’m already looking forward to my next trip with Trafalgar!

Amazing trip and excellent tour guide and driver ! Great memories!

This is a fast tour. There is an overwhelming about of history that is given. There is a tour everyday as well as optional tours everyday. The optional tours are a must! With that being said, there is not a lot of Down Time.

The itenary and travel director and Driver were extraordinary. No comparison. Most of the hotel qualities were below par. We enjoyed the tours everyday and it was a memorable experience. We wish the hotels will be little more cozy and comfortable even with any additional cost.

*personal info removed by Feefo* was a wonderful tour director. Very knowledgeable, entertaining and kept us on track. I would not recommend the parliament excursion. It was very expensive and dry. The shoe memorial is free and that part was very interesting and important to see. Also, I think the group size is too big. 48 is too many! You should cap the group size at 30.

it was thorough and at a good pace

Great Beautiful cites, good timings

Well organized tour with a great itinerary. We did several cities in 9 days. our tour director and our driver were both excellent. The hotels were good, they were not near the city centres but close to public transportation. The optional excursions were expensive but worthwhile. The Be My Guest was a truly memorable experience. We felt we needed an extra day in Salzburg in order visit more of the lakes and mountains incuding the town of Hallstatt. Overall we enjoyed the trip, met some great people and would definitely recommend it.

Our guide and bus driver were excellent and the hotels and breakfasts were great, although the first Munich hotel was in a boring area. The sites we visited on the itinerary were generally wonderful but instead of setting us in the high-end shopping district in Vienna on our first stop there, I would rather have been put in an area with more cultural or historical significance. Also, I felt that, although the add-ons I did were all great, it did make the trip pricier than I had intended.

It was good. We learned a lot about the history of the countries and the tour director was excellent. We enjoyed the trip and will recommend it.

Our tour guide was excellent and our bus driver also great! Our hotels were ok,

This trip covers some of the most iconic sights in Central Europe. A great way to see a lot in a short space.

This was an excellent tour, beautifully organized and let by Trafalgar and our wonderful tour guide and our bus driver . Communication was excellent throughout and all of our travel needs were taken care of. The sites we saw were beautiful and interesting and given extra intrigue by our local tour guides. I would highly recommend this tour!

I loved the itinerary but too much of it was an extra expense!

It is a very face paced tour with lots of walking.

Trafalgar needs to rethink the local guides! While in Prague - we were so disappointed and disgusted by our tour guide Andre! Not only was he dressed, unprofessionally with cigarette hanging from his mouth- his vulgar words about American police officers and the Jewish community were absolutely appalling!
