    The hotels and dinners were mediocre. The hotels may have been a 5 star hotel but the rooms were 3 star. The dinners were average but nothing special. The tour guide failed to let us know ahead of time that I needed what's app on my phone to be able to view my itinerary. The bus driver was excellent!

    Wonderful way to see Europe. Staying 2 nights in most places gave us time to explore on our own. We had a great Tour Leader and Driver who made the trip so special. My absolute highlight was the UNESCO listed Wieliczka Salt Mine. It was an amazing experience that I never tire of telling people about.

    This trip was such a delight from start to finish. The hotel in Budapest is just beautiful and I had a spa treatment to start the trip. The salt mines were a personal favourite of mine. Our Travel Director Carl was very informative and was always on hand to give additional information. I HIGHLY recommend this trip. Truly magical!
