The tour was fast paced but if you're interested in seeing highlights of countries, Taste of Eastern Europe is a great tour! I highly recommend it.
Sol

I had a great well-rounded experience for my first time in Europe! The itinerary was perfect for someone who was also working while on trip. Tour leader Sem and driver Ferenc ensured a stress-free, enjoyable trip. I had a great time exploring, eating and meeting new people. Can't wait to book another tour!
Karen

It was a great experience. We looked forward to the activities everyday. Our tour guide Paul was the best! We

We had a wonderful time on our trip through Germany, Hungary, Austria, and the Czech Republic. Our tour guide, Emma, was so helpful, shepherding, and fun. We had an amazing trip. Thanks again Emma and Zoltan!!!

It's definitely fast paced but incredibly efficient so a ton of different experiences were packed in! It's a great option for people who have never been to central/eastern Europe and want to see the best of a variety of cities. Even though the time spent in each place was limited, I felt that I was able to get a really comprehensive taste of culture and see the things most worth seeing. Our guide Emma was fantastic, entertaining, knowledgeable, approchable, and super friendly. She went above and beyond to accommodate us and ensure we were comfortable. I'm generally a very shy and reserved person and even I felt very comfortable with asking her questions and getting to know her. She was able to give really interesting insights into the culture and history of each place and you can tell she is incredibly passionate about what she does. She anticipated our needs and gave us tips to navigate transit, currency, and communication with locals so that everything ended up going incredibly smoothly. My mom and I are very adventurous and liked to travel far and discover more during our free time, and Emma was super helpful in giving us a wide range of transportation options and checked up on us to make sure we got back to the hotel each night. She even invited us all to reach out to her if we are ever in Budapest again! Our driver Zolta'n was fantastic as well and is clearly a pro - we were always on time, even if there was traffic or bad weather, and he went the extra mile to find us drop off and pick up locations that were a comfortable walking distance from city centres and restaurants. We opted for the Danube dinner cruise and the Nordkette mountain experience optional excursions and they were 100% worth it. The excursions offer a good blend of extra sightseeing and cultural activities, so you have some flexibility as to what you want to tailor your experience more towards, or if you'd rather just have more free time. A tip - make your Wise account before you leave home!

Optional Experiences happen during your tour's free-time slots, and your Tour Leader will tell you about what's on offer during the tour.

You might arrive alone. You won't feel that way for long.
