    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!

    Another Fantastic Adventure

    We absolutely LOVED Croatia and all along the Coast AND Rivers. Anywhere there was water, it was beautiful. Dubrovnik, a 10! The Horses in Hungary, a 10! Budapest, a 10! Do ALL the optionals!!! 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.
