What people love about Europe Tours from Amsterdam
- Europe Jewel
This tour was fantastic, exactly what I thought I was signing up for. A lot of driving time but this allowed for us to be able to see so many different countries. The itinerary was very organized and the chosen activities were appropriate and entertaining. The accommodations were clean and a decent size for the price of the tour and most had wifi which was a nice bonus. A big shout out to Holly our tour leader, she was enthusiastic, fun and knowledgable. I would definitely reccommend this tour and expat explore to friends and family.
- Europe Explorer
The tour is absolutely fantastic and we are enjoy it very much! We like Jungfrau, Switzerland the most. The coach seat is not so comfort during travel day & some accommodation provided without lift, since it is 18 days & you can imagine how difficult to handle the big and heavy the luggage after tired travel day.
My husband, myself and my 2 sisters booked a tour through Globus 'The Taperstry tour'. Our tour guide Gert was a very knowledgeable, patient and excellent tour guide. Gert made our tour come alive with his history and knowledge of all the countries and cities we visited,any issues we had he was there to assist us. Gert had character was funny and very enjoyable to listen to. It would be awesome if all the guides had the expertise of Gert. He is one not to let go. Thank you Gert for making our journey through Europe a very enjoyable one. Keep up the good work and hope to meet again on another tour in the future
