This trip has a lot of walking on cobblestones with which some of our members had trouble.

I am very happy with the tour. The director, driver, and accommodations are very good. The view of the city by day and by night was fabulous.

Our tour guide was a consummate professional - very sensitive to the needs of each member of the group.

All in all Trafalgar has done a great job for this itinerary. I have travelled with them many times before and the only thing that I was not satisfied with this time was that our tour guide was not up to par. His self-interests took priority over the customers' experience. Our driver was professional despite the poor performance of our tour guide.

Trafalgar is always top notch. Outstanding trip!!

The trip was great. Our only issue was the lack of air conditioning in the hotels. After a long day of sightseeing to arrive to a room that is hot was not fun. Opening the windows to get cold air was not enough. Considering that people travel from all over the world hotels should have more accommodations for the climate.

Thanks to Francis from affordable tours he was above & beyond awesome to get this trip together perfectly & quickly! France

Accommodations in Vienna or substandard. Beds look like they belong to in a cabin on a cruise liner. Is very small hard for two people to move around in. The accommodations in Budapest and Prague were very good. There was a lot of down time on this trip. The tours that were included as part of the package we're very short in duration. It cost us almost $900 US just to see the sights that we expected would have been included in the package. This is unacceptable

Trafalgar was great! Our tour director Andy did an excellent job.

On scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being best, I would rate it a 10! Awesome, flawless, and incredibly warm and friendly execution!

The tour director on this trip was excellent. His knowledge, organizational skills and caring personality made this trip an excellent choice for us.

Hotel choices were high standard, however, we did not care for the location of the Budapest Hilton. Would have preferred something with closer proximity to the city center. It was next to a high end mall which may be appealing for some travelers. All the hotel staff were extremely pleasant and accomodating. Our group of about 44 was a good size. Tour director and bus driver and our guides were very well versed and some also very funny.

This Central European trip was even better organized, more upscale, and more fun than I expected although I have enjoyed all of my four Trafalgar trips. For the first time I thoroughly enjoyed fellow travelers on this trip to Prague, Vienna, and Budapest. The optional tours and evenings were great, as well, and the guided tours excellent. It was an extremely memorable trip and certainly worth the investment!

The only thing that we did not like was that the group was too large, 52 participants. We would prefer the group not to exceed 25-30 people.

The Tour Director was very good as were the local guides in each of the 3 cities. Optional tours were very good to excellent.

The trip was great. I saw and learned new things all of the time. The tour director was great. She was truly concerned about me and my wife. It was as if we were invited into her home.
