All of the sites were memorable but especially all (3) of the gondala mountain excursions were amazing. Riding to the top of the mountain to the cheese facory and having lunch was also a favorite. Way too many memorable moments to mention but a trip to remember for sure

I loved the walking tour of Annecy. Our local tour guide Odile was so animated and interesting to listen to. The trip to the top of Mon Blanc was amazing I also loved visiting the Site Alp Cheese farm. We got a look at a working farm and daily life in Switzerland. Their cheese is outstanding! The Top of Europe! Wish we had more time to stay longer in the charm of Europe. We thorough enjoyed this trip. Our tour guide Mauro and driver Diego were the best! Well done Collette!!

Everything was wonderful. The tour guides were professional, personable and knowledgeable. Accommodations were to my liking. The inclusions were exciting: Buckingham palace, Kensington palace, the gardens, the parks and city squares, the river boat rides, bridges, the pubs and restaurants, the London Eye, palace of Versailles, Notre Dame, the Eiffel Tower, the food tasting, the bakery tour. Wonderful!!!

ROMA H. | Traveled in October

The itinerary of Discover Europe 2.0 or Joyful Treasures of Europamundo is very satisfactorily for newbies travelling Europe! I hope it will have an “advance” version to cover also places with good food within the area of interest, stop at shopping places- although this was covered in our last leg of the trip (Rome)! Suggest to consider toilet breaks before the start and during the journey of the tour. Overall- very good experience, tour phasing and well-thought itinerary! Plus, our tour guides - Ms. Sagry is highly commendable as she provides clear instructions & considerate to elderly, she is much appreciated! 👍 And of course, the amazing (“mamma Mia”) Gabby! Well she’s the best for me! I miss her already and I look forward to seeing her on my next Europamundo trip! Last but not the least is sweet Sylvia- chance encounter her group and shezz amazing as well, I feel like she’s the best travel buddy 😉! Thanks to the amazing tour guides and our bus drivers- my 1st Europe trip is one for the books! God bless you more and travel safe! Fyi, Travelling with my mom (75 y/o) and she enjoyed it! Grazie & Merci!
