Budget Trips to Belgium

Our 14-day Jewel of Europe trip was nothing short of spectacular! Jemma, our tour leader, and Florin, our driver, were exceptional. The Swiss Alps on New Year's Day was undoubtedly a highlight of the trip. All the hotels, we had comfortable stays, and each restaurant visit gave us a decent taste of each country. The optional excursions were totally worth it as well.

I had an absolutely amazing trip. The tour guide, Antonio, and the driver, Victor, were absolutely fantastic. I met a lot of great people on the bus, and there was no way I could ever experience, everything I did without being a part of the tour. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone and will be planning another one soon!

We had a great experience with this Tour. The locations were great, and we covered a lot of places and experienced a lot of things in a short period of time. The optional excursions were also excellent and worth it. Overall it was a very well-run tour. The tour leader, Antonio and the driver, Victor were amazing and very passionate about ensuring we had the best experience possible. Antonio is very experienced and ran everything very smoothly and always had a plan B ready if circumstances changed. He knew where the best spots would be to see things and take excellent pictures. And Victor was an excellent driver in all places we went to, streets of Paris, mountain of Switzerland etc. Both were great people to be on the tour with.

We (family of 4) went on this coach trip not quite knowing what to expect. The thoughts of being on a coach for what seemed an eternity to my husband, were quickly dispelled as Damien (our driver) and Steve (tour leader) were very careful to put in numerous stops that were plenty long enough to walk off any cabin fever. The coach was well appointed with enough leg room and a few spare seats so it didn't feel packed. Seats were comfortable and the charging ports well used by our 16 year old daughter and husband and I. The tour really was a whistle stop in each iconic location, but Steve's knowledge and hints and tips (especially around safety in Paris) were invaluable. My family and I really appreciated the hard work and organisation that Steve was doing in the back ground. Steve's history talk going into Germany was second to none, he presented the 1870's Prussian war, right through to the end of the 2nd World War in a way that that history books cannot, my husband and I are glad our 2 children got to hear Steve's talk on this part of history. Because we were on time, Steve and Damien were able to fit in little extra stops in Paris to see places we normally wouldn't have been able to go to due to time constraints. The hotels were fine for the few hours we were sleeping in them....this really is a late night, early morning whizz around Europe, and with Steve and Damien leading us, it was brilliant...and we slept/dozed on the coach if really knackered.

Would have never travelled as much and efficiently without the help of expat. 11 countries in 2 weeks is a crazy and awesome experience. Had a pleasant time with our tour group. I have done trips with other traveling companies before but so far Expat is my favorite.
