This is our first time in Europe so we booked for a 7-day ET. Started in London which is very convenient for us. Coach was very comfortable, we were able to doze off fine during the travel. The driver, Sylven (sorry not sure how to spell his name right) was the best. He drives smoothly and patiently especially in the ""jungle"" streets of Paris! Tour leader Mike was smart and very informative but was hoping he could've been more fun and more approachable with the rest of team. He was very organized. He gives us treats/sweets - which was really nice. Morever, we were able to meet a mix of various travellers (solo, couples & friends) from US, Australia, Philippines & S.Korea. It was fun! The whole trip was amazing considering it was a ""taster"", could've been much better if it was more than a week. My favourite part of the trip was the Top of Europe experience in Jungfraujoch! 'Twas hearstopping to say the least. And the rest of the Swiss Alps stops are truly lovely and has unrealistically beautiful sceneries. My least favourite was the Rhine Valley, we were only there for little half a day. Only get to see a portion of Boppard, Germany. Didn't like the Rhine River cruise as it was raining. Didn't much have time to have a proper walk around the town. All accomodations provided are pretty decent, although they will only give you twin bed rooms despite requesting for a double bed or a joint bed for a couple travellers. Daily breakfasts and 4 included dinners are tasteful. Overall, it was truly a value for money! We would highly recommend this tour if it's your first time in Europe!
This trip covered a great deal of Europe within the given 24 days. I loved the face paced environment and meeting all the incredible people on my trip. It included all the typical touristy pieces but with my trip leader’s recommendations, I was able to explore the cities even further.
The trip was everything we could have asked for. We saw all the big ticket things that we were wanting to see as well as being taken to some places we never would have thought to go and we fell in love with them instantly and now want to return (who would have thought that Slovenia was so beautiful?!?). Our guide and driver were incredibly knowledgeable and were always filled with suggestions and were a lot of fun. The tour made travelling through Europe so easy, we didn't have to worry about missing trains or not making flight connections and whilst some of the drive days were long, we saw some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. I highly recommend this trip!
