    We had a fantastic experience with our Glimpse of Europe tour. Thanks to our tour director Steve and our driver who made our trip fun and recharge our memory with history. For a short tour, we were able to explore a good amount of places and fulfilled some of our dreams. We had a wonderful group as well who we were really nice even though we came from different countries and backgrounds and gaining friendships is a blessing. Overall we had a fantastic experience.

    Martina was an excellent tour guide and Florin was a great driver! I always knew what we were doing, time and place to meet. Felt safe in the bus, he was an excellent and safe driver! The tour was fun and we saw some beautiful and wonderful places. The only place I wasn't too fond of was the place in Germany we stayed at. Other than that all the accommodations ere great!

    My wife and I really enjoyed this trip. All of the stops on the trip were full of cultural things specific for that location, so we got a feeling for traditions of each country, just like the brochure said. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and made it an education experience. We made friends easily with others and it made the city excursions so much more lively. Other travelers told us there were not as many optional choices as in pre-covid days, but that is likely because people in the travel industry had to find other work. Hopefully this will improve as tourism in general is on the up-swing. We would have liked more time at the Rheinfall Falls and less time at the Black Forest cuckoo clock location. There was a half hour boat tour that went to the falls area that several of us thought would have been fun, but there wasn't time for that. Paris was terrific and the timing for all of the excursions was spot on to give us the maximum exposure to this fabulous city in the amount of time we had.

    Just a few comments.: Tour was great. Lynda and Eric did a terrific job. 1) not sure what’s with the name “ cost saver” branding. But I’m embarrassed to tell people I booked a cost saver tour. Makes it sound like I cheaped out and bought a low budget tour. Which it wasn’t Stick with Trafalgar. It’s “known” and trusted 2) I wish there were exceptions to age limits for the contiki tours. My daughter 18 and I (46) took this tour. I’m an active person participating in. Triathlons. I found many of the activities on this tour geared towards those who were inactive or had limited mobility Wanted more active things to do. Three or 4 sitting down river cruises. Although pleasant is a lot of similar/repetitive activities. Hope you can design some tours for us active middle agers Lynda implemented a daily seat rotation. That is a very fair idea. I hope it’s done on all tours. It would have been nice if we had the forethought to take a group photo at some point in our tour. Our group never did. Maybe add this to the agenda for tour directors
