This is a fast paced tour in Europe but you get to see a lot in a short period of time. Highly recommended!
Our tour director was outstanding. She was constantly calling ahead to optional experience vendors, checking weather and traffic conditions to make sure everything went smoothly. We enjoyed the Trafalgar experience. We just packed our luggage and showed up. Trafalgar handled everything else! Of course, a big thumbs up to our driver who made our trip safe and enjoyable.

If people would ask me if I got my money's worth, I would reply that I got much much more than my money's worth. My trip was beyond wonderful, beyond amazing, beyond breathtaking.... Trent Plaine gave great background history of every country we visited; he took us to places morning noon and night... if there were places on the way out of a country he'd have us visit them and stop for great views. He was knowledgeable on flavors, food... the road trip was fantabulous!
