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

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip organized for me by my travel agent. Everything went smoothly.

Everything about the trip was better than expectations.

This trip was worth the money I spent , we cover quite a lot of places that if you travel on your own you will spend more a and as a solo traveler I felt safe .

Was disappointed with Trafalgar. Even with Afforable Tours discounts it was overpriced for what was included compared to other companies. They were most interested in clients signing up for the additional costly excursions. If you didn't sign up for excursions they were not interested in you.

The trip was great but too many extras to pay for!

Highly recommend any Switzerland tour. The country is truly stunning & spectacular, and it's people are all very friendly.

Learned a lot about the pros and cons of bus tours. Could probably write a book about our experiences. Overall, Trafalgar did a good job of taking care of us.

We were both very pleased with the Switzerland/Austria tour that we just completed with Trafalgar. It was truly excellent! The tour guide was absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed the tour so much and took the entire option package which was outstanding. The food was super good and there was such a variety of adventures on this tour. There were 48 on the bus which we felt was a few too many, but that would be our only complaint. The rooms were all comfortable and check-in and check-out nothing short of miraculous. I don't see how this tour could have been any better and we were completely satisfied with everything. Blessings!
