Ratings based off 5106 reviews about Trafalgar Tours - currently showing 15 reviews with comments only

We have been on 7 Trafalgar tours and this one ranks right at the top. By far the longest and most adventurous. Nellie Sullivan was one of the best tour directors we’ve ever had. She went beyond what most TDs have done. Our optional excursions in Australia and New Zealand were phenomenal. Definitely a trip to remember.

4th Trafalgar Tour was the best yet. Our tour director Pedro Pinto was excellent. We saw both must see and seldom seen places. Truly best of Portugal. As a treat, our director got us representative sweets from each region as well as picking restaurants featuring local specialties.

This was our sixth trip with Trafalgar and we have never been dissapointed. We will continue to travel with them on future trips.

The tour was very rushed with skipping many parts of a tour and too many people squeezed in the bus. The tour operater commented daily on tipping the bus operator, our tour guide and other tour guides. Most meals included were low budget meals and the meals that we paid for were high quality meals . Some of the hotels were terrible and some were four stars . Sometimes we felt that we were treated as kids on a school bus trip and were scolded if we were a couple of minutes late, It was not a laid back experience. There were many extras for dinners and tours that we paid for. In my opinion for a tour of Italy I would rather have an Italian Tour Manager for the experience of Italy with an Italian accent , although our tour Manager spoke Italian really well, very experienced on Italy and the culture but a better experience. We were recommended in Venice while on a tour of a Merano glass Manufacture to purchase high quality products with life time guarantee . We bought a ring and several days later it became defective in loosing small pieces of it . We told the tour manager and she tried for several weeks thru email to correct the situation, but they would not replace the same ring, only give us a different one. After the tour we went on a tour to Sicily with gate one travel that we traveled before with that was 100 times better! I will not book we Trafalgar again or recommend them ! In fact I booked a tour of Japan in 2025 with Gate one discovery travel.

My 5th trip with Trafalgar. I would like to look into Insight in the future also.

Wonderful trip and tour. Trafalgar is top notch. Will book again next time with Affordable Tours and Trafalgar!

This package was really what I expected. Trafalgar gives the best experience for customers

I have done several tours with Trafalgar and I have been please with them all. That is why I continue to choose them.

We had a great experience traveling with Trafalgar. Beginning with the booking agent to the tour director, everyone was excellent. Thank you everyone!

We had a great trip with Trafalgar. Everything was top notch, the tours, the accomodations, the local guides, the bus driver, and the head guide were superior. I will use Trafalgar again.

4th trip with Trafalgar, never been disappointed.

Trafalgar goes above and beyond! Love them

Services provided by the company and guide are truly exemplary. A very professional staff and excellent accommodation. Highly recommended for future travelers and friends.

Our Travel Director was very nice, learned a lot from her about Japan culture and the places we visited. Will definitely travel again with Trafalgar.

Our tour director was totally amazing!!! She was highly knowledgable about all the cities, sights and history of the UK. Her personality was delightful, with a wonderful sense of humor!! She made the trip amazing!!! Our driver was exceptional as well!!! He was great and went above and beyond helping everyone in and out of the coach along with all the luggage. He was always the perfect gentleman and his personality matched that of our director making the tour more fun than I could have ever imagined!!!
