    Great experience and value

    The Croatian & Eastern delights tour is a whirlwind of a tour. It is fast and you move from place to place a lot, but this way you see so much. If you take the Montenegro excursion, then you see 10 countries in 13 days. In fact, you will see 20+ destinations in this trip. The hotels are standard/basic. Some are nicer than others, but just enough to be comfortable. I appreciate that some meals are included and the bus was very nice and comfortable. Our tour guide was fantastic. So friendly and helpful. I checked out similar tours from other companies and by far, this was the best value!

Make sure to do the Dubrovnik cruise. It was OUTSTANDING! And the Budapest cruise! And the Prague cruise!!! Oh, and make sure you do the Night out in Prague to the Folklore dinner...it was a 10 too!!!!! And our Tour Leader Igor (Ingvar) Maximus SOOO NICE, SO KIND, SO THOUGHTFUL, SO PATIENT, I WISH WE COULD HAVE HIM OR ROMA ON EVERY TOUR! PLEASE KEEP IGOR AND GIVE HIM MANY TOURS TO LEAD. UNLESS YOU'RE THERE WITH HIM EVERY DAY, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GOOD THIS MAN IS

    Fun!!

    We went on this tour for our college reunion trip and it was amazing! Explored cities in Europe while sampling authentic foods and meeting new friends along the way. This is my second tour with Expat and i love how they plan the day so we can cover more highlights in each city and they alwaya pick very good restaurants for the local dishes.

So many highlights. Our driver was amazing, finding back ways to cross the boarders during the busy end of school holiday period. The tour was great with so many amazing places. The standouts for me were Budapest, Prague, Slovenia, Dubrovnik, Split and Mostar. As a solo traveller, I find Expat fantastic and meet other solo travellers. This is my 5th tour with Expat and every time the group on the bus have been great fun and mixed well.

Cesky Krumlov, spectacular view!
Matt and Zoltan were great. I love the hotels, the breakfasts and optional dinners. I did not get the 2 optional tours in Prague but I should have gotten the dinner dance since it was good according to those who went, otherwise all the optional tours we got were all worth it.

Been with Expat before and I can say this is by far the most scenic tour I had. I highly recommend everyone to do this tour. Explored 10 countries, cities and landmarks of Eastern Europe . Our tour leader Matt Grieves took us to these amazing places with great knowledge and Zoltan managed to drive 33 like-minded individuals safely full circle from Munich to Munich. We will all treasure these experiences for the rest of our lives. Kudos to Expat team on yet another unforgettable tour!

My hubby and I generally satisfied with the tour program, but there were some issues which we would like to highlight to expat management for future improvement, also applicable to other tours which we maybe interested to join in the future: 1. Hotel selection. We really upset expat chosen several hotels that to our disappointment, such as Hotel B&B Ljubljana Park (our room Aircon not working and we have to wait for technician to come and hotel reception refused to change room for us, due to this, we miss our walking tour. Hotel Medena I was the worst hotel in this tour, nothing in the room can function well and so run down. Lastly was the Krystal hotel in Prague, no Aircon and far from metro station and the staff was really rude towards not only to us but also to tour leader. I hope expat will more care in selecting the hotel as we are traveler which really need a comfortable bed to sleep well. We particularly love hotel in Budapest (Mercure) and Dubrovnik. The others not the best but
