We never would have been able to organise a trip like this ourselves. We experienced places and saw things we never thought of. Our tour leader's knowledge and advice on each location was amazing. The tour leader and coach driver worked like a well oiled team despite not previously working together. They both brought humour, fun and a sense of adventure to each day. Our tour leaders ability to manage such a large groups needs, expectations and diversity was inspiring. We would definitely recommend this tour.
The tour was 8 countries in 8 days but it didn't feel rushed. Side stops were good and broke up the travel. We had enough time in each place to explore and see the highlights. The included tours and meals were good - some meals were very good. Our driver, Sam, tour director, Gabi were great. I was very impressed with the tour and it exceeded my expectation. Great value.
Far exceeded what I expected. I realised this was a budget tour and was expecting some hiccups plus bad accommodation but this didn't happen. Very well run tour (26 days.) Leader and coach driver were excellent throughout. We were in air conditioned rooms all bar 2 nights, always clean rooms, some even luxury which I hadn't expected at all. Most were on the fringes of the destination but always very close to public transport. The included meals again far exceeded expectations. If you are an independent traveller on a limited budget Expat will deliver in bucketloads BUT if you want a luxury room every night suggest you go with another tour company but expect to pay two or three times the price. 10/10 from me!
