Judith our Travel Director was excellent. The optional excursions were great. Lucerne was a favorite and least favorite was Country and Carriages. This was a busy fast paced tour and covered a lot of ground.
Richard S. | Traveled in April
A wide-ranging introduction to Europe- canals, rivers, Alpine peaks and then key parts of Paris. Covers over 1000 miles in a week, but comfortable and well-organized. Top quality hotels, an expert driver, and a tour leader who offers expert knowledge, not a running narrative. Our tour group included smart, sophisticated, and interesting people from around the world.
David Lawson | Traveled in May
Our trip to France and Greece was an incredible experience. We left feeling more connected to ourselves and each other, and we would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a peaceful and transformative getaway away from loud cities.
