Super trip. Great tour director and super coach driver! We had a significant weather issue outside of their control and they did an outstanding job to deal with situation! Sites, hotels etc great!!

Some of the hotels were outdated but accessible to the city center. So you are trading one option for another.

Everything and everyone was great. Tracy and Francesco are the best tour guides I have ever met.

We had good tour director Mauricio. My only comment was that we booked it as a smaller group however we were integrated with a bigger group in total we were 24 in the group good thing the people in the tour were really nice people.

The tour director and driver were professional and courteous. It was great to learn the history of each area we toured. We enjoyed meeting our other travelers

Taking this trip off season is definitely the best way to go. Lovely area of the world with a lot of history. I learned a lot.

Ines was fabulous. Pedro was an excellent driver. I always felt safe.

Karen is so helpful when booking our trips.

Not as good as my previous trips with Globus . Of course weather was bad too . Hotel selection was not up to par

Affordable Tours was very helpful and so easy to work with. Brenda made sure I had all the information I needed and sent very appropriate and friendly reminders that were so helpful. Brenda also answered my emails and phone calls promptly and accurately. I highly recommend Affordable Tours.

This was our Fourth trip with Globus, and as always it was wonderful. Our guide was exceptional, our itinerary was just what we expected, and the accommodations and food were just as Globus described in their literature. We definitely will travel with Globus again.

To whom it may concern, I did not receive a “taste of London dinner cruise.” Also we never had a “guided drive through Paris, past the illuminated monuments and bridges, for a whole new perspective of Place de l'Opéra, the Champs Elysées, Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral, and more.”. I would have enjoyed some of the Hotels but, there was not Air conditioning working in Florence and Venice.

The last night optional dinner was overcrowded with at least 3 billiards of tourists. The food was adequate. The show was dated. The hotels were mostly very good. The hotel in Donegal was dated and filled with unattended small kids. They ran up in hallways until after 11pm.

Great hosts along the tour. Transport worked great.

Tour guide was excellent. She had to overcome the massive disaster in Valencia, where she also lived, to adapt on the fly to changes in road conditions and hotel availability.
