The sites were amazing. The itinerary was great with all the capital cities.Venice was interesting but too fast. The negatives were that it was too busy, especially if do most optionals. Folk music night was fantastic. Venetian restaurant was cool. Tour guide, Emma, was super knowledgeable and informative. She also had a good sense of humour. She managed a group that had some difficult personalities too, which was no simple feat. Our driver, Damien, was absolutely fantastic - very safe driver and excellent skills in tight spaces. Both very kind and polite.
I have nothing to compare it with because this was our first bus tour. Bus was lovely, food good but we found meals to be late in the day, accommodations not swanky but comfortable for the budget. Tour guide and driver were wonderful, patient and informative.
I have been impressed with the activities down to the planning and organization of this tour company. The bus drivers are well trained and it shows and our tour guide is very helpful and polite. We saw and did so much in such a short time. I know if we took this trip on alone there is no way we would have covered the ground we have l. Well done expat!
