This is my 3rd tour with Expat Explore and once again I had a great time . Our guide Lukasz was friendly , prompt and was knowledgeable about the sights and culture of Eastern Europe. Gabor the driver was calm and got us to our destinations safely. It was alot to see in a week but we got it done and everything was well done. Special mention to Natasha in Budapest and Gabriella in Prague who won our hearts over with their knowledge and love for their cities. The hotel in Prague was the least favorite . with limited breakfast offerings and tiny rooms as well as unfriendly staff.

I had a great well-rounded experience for my first time in Europe! The itinerary was perfect for someone who was also working while on trip. Tour leader Sem and driver Ferenc ensured a stress-free, enjoyable trip. I had a great time exploring, eating and meeting new people. Can't wait to book another tour!
