    Patricia was an excellent tour guide. Provided lot of information and taught us a little bit about Holland. I liked the cities selected on the tour. I hope to return someday and spend more time in these cities. Hotels were lovely, especially the Fletcher Hotel in Arnhem. Food was okay but the Dutch cuisine is mostly fried food and that got tiresome.

    Except for the hotels (it doesn’t look like air con working) all went well. Mladen is a good tour guide; Jeffrey was an excellent driver!
