William, Antia, and Andrea were all very good guides. We also had 2 other local guides that were a wealth of knowledge. The Amsterdam Ibis Hotel was decent. Most of the staff was helpful, there was a fitness center but there should have been water provided, and the breakfast wasn’t bad. The Novotel d’italie hotel was better but there was no fitness center. The staff was all very helpful, the breakfast was delicious, and the rooms were spacious. Logistically the tour is not what I expected with 1-4 tour buses of people; 100+ people. At times it felt more like a high school trip than an adult tour.
I really enjoyed the tour. Great bunch of people and so many terrific locations. Every day, there was something new. We saw so many places in Europe and travelled over 5,000 kms in 14 days. It was certainly challenging at times, but thats all part of the experience. The tour was also very good value, given how far we travelled and what was included. We were also very lucky to have Inga, a very knowledgable and professional Tour Guide and the skilled Josh, who could drive a bus through the 'eye of needle'. Highly recommended.
We enjoyed the tour very much. Not only did we see new countries/places but we made friends with people from other countries One thing we missed on the tour is coffee/tea in the hotel rooms.
