What people love about Coach / Bus Tours from Rome
- European Highlights
East or West, North or South, Expat Explore is the best.10 Days Europe highlight tour was a great experience especially for family taking the tour for the first time from one Continent to another Continent .It was a million dollar experience .The tour was conducted exactly as per the itinerary given in their website ,which helps one to get mentally prepared for the 10 day tour .It was a budget tour ,though I was bit late in booking my tour and had to dole out extra pound which is a costly affair from people from India , but a pre planned booking of the tours offered by Expat at a lower rate is an excellent deal .For a first timer, Expat Explore is the best they make you gobble the places you visit which will make one remember the tour for a long time to come. Well done Expat. Thanks a ton to Ms Lenka out Tour -leader ,who took care of all 50 on board the trip. We had family from Iran, Malaysia, USA,Canada and other countries in our tour.
- Italian Scene (Summer)
Trafalgar were very professional and very welcoming when we first me our Tour Guide at the Hotel in Rome. We quickly made friends with other tour participants and our Tour Guide was very informative wherever we stopped plus getting us to meet "promptly" before we departed to the next place. We had a ball in Tuscany where we all "let loose" and had a lovely meal and plenty of wine in the hot, sunny Tuscan hill restaurant, dancing the day away!
- Italy and Switzerland ROT
As we were just 13 in the group we were very well attended by Europamundo. The tour guide and the driver were always on time and gave us clear instructions every time we arrived at a tourist spot. We experienced good accommodations at the hotels where we were booked. Breakfast was always a welcome treat. Unlike other operators when upon the end of the tour an envelope is given to every one for comments and tip, Europamundo remained unobliging. After the tour ended Europamundo made sure we were okay to get a transport on our way back to our hotel. Thanks, Europamundo. You come highly recommended. .
