    Saw a lot in a short time

    Schedule was often too tight and unable to stay in the timeline Felt rushed too often The group guide started the day with a lecture about keeping to the schedule, often going on for 8-10 minutes like you would for a child

    Amazing, but fast paced

    It was an amazing tour seeing so many countries and highlights in a short time! Ricardo was an excellent tour guide and shared lots of great information about the places we visited. He was also very good at looking out for the travelers on the tour, and trying to make sure everyone's needs were met. I especially loved touring Neuschwanstein Castle in Germany and the Roman Colosseum and Vatican in Rome, Italy. Be aware that there is A LOT of walking on this tour. There is also A LOT of time on the bus going from one country to another. We also had an excellent driver, Cryztof, who was warm, friendly, and fun. If you are okay with the hours of walking and long sitting times on the bus, I would recommend this tour!

    Enjoyable Experience

    Although I did not enjoy all the walking required, it was a good trip. Ricardo was an excellent tour leader who has a great personality and was very knowledgeable. I met lots of wonderful people and we came together as a group.
