Aileen was a great tour leader and one of the highlights of the trip. Silvian was equally as good a driver so we had a great team. The overview of the places visited was good and plenty of nice little surprises along the way. Lots of long drive days as I suspected from the itinerary. It is a reasonable balance between seeing lots of places in a short time. I had a great time.
Our 2nd holiday with the tour operator and by far the best thanks to our wonderful tour leader Vicky and driver Hans. Vicky gave us so much information on every town and country we visited I can't believe we were able to learn so much. Nothing was ever too much trouble, we couldn't have asked for more. Loved all the optional extras, the hotels were mostly 3-4 star and all meals supplied were great. Thank you Expat for helping us enjoy one of our best holidays ever. Vicky and Hans gave us a holiday to remember forever ????????????
This trip was absolutely fantastic. It's a very busy and fast paced tour. There's lots to see and quite a bit of walking involved. We were more than happy to do a majority of the optional experiences however be warned that this means more walking. Jared, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and Florentine, our driver was fantastic! There's lots of early starts so ensure that you're organised. Make sure you keep up to speed with the daily run sheet - this will give you information about what time to be at the bus, the activities for the day and information about meals. We would definitely do this trip again - we loved it!
