Peter was kind and knowledgeable always looking after all in the group even when it was not easy due to varying circumstances. Alex is by far the most skill driver I have ever seen. Both these individuals made a very taxing trip memorable and enjoyable.
What a tour! Thank you Peter K for making this a memorable holiday. Pete is a walking encyclopaedia, made each day informative & fun. I appreciate how you looked out for everyone, staying up till you knew we were all back at the hotel & safe. Pete made my major bucket list city Venice a magnificent visit . Some surprise cities: Toulouse so beautiful & a great meal. Avignon castle with the interactive video showing how the castle rooms looked in the day was great. Keep this one on the tour. Being a foodie loved the Macarons in Paris, Cicchetti in Venice, the side of a cow in Tuscany! & pickled herring jn Amsterdam. Made some great new friends on the road. Big thank you to Silvi our coach driver, exceptional driving on some difficult roads. Lovely, happy & patient man. Pete & Silvi team number 1!
This was my first trip to visit amazing Europe. The sights we saw were unforgettable. But what made them so special were the Expat tour guide and coach driver. I looked forward to seeing them each morning. Both were so easy to talk to. Noddy Tanner was great at sharing history and stories about countries and locations while on the coach or a walking tour. She amazed me that she wasn't reading a script. She was very organized and thorough when preparing for optional excursions. She stayed in touch with the museum, restaurant, etc so that we had a smooth experience. Loved that she shared the Wise app to pay for excursions and their gratuity. It made the trip so worry-free not having to get cash repeatedly or carry an abundance of cash. Paulo Rodrigues was an excellent driver. He totally amazed me with his calmness and expertise. The traffic, fearless drivers, motorcycles, bicycles and 'walk anywhere-anytime pedestrians' were not a part of my experiences. Paulo handled it all with ease. I was amazed. Would I repeat a trip with this team? You bet I would.
