I think, considering the age of the travellers that Trafalgar packed too much into some days. Luggage out at 6:30 am and on the bus at 7:30 am was too early.

The booking porocess was easy, and customer service was responsive. I contacted 4 companies about the tour I was interested in. Two of the companies I contacted didn't answer me at all. One of them was basically a chatbot that said "do it yourself." Only bookmundi had human agents to help.

It was a trip I had wanted to take for some time. It met my expectations. I wanted to visit mainly Canadian sites and memorials. Sites were impressive, well kept and displays and commentary were well done. Would recommend this trip to anyone interested in history.
