Luxury Germany Tours & Trips Reviews
- Best of Germany
Greg was excellent. A very proactive director. Each day he walked the bus and spoke to everyone to ensure things were going well and to deal with any issues. He kept us well informed, explained our itinerary, gave clear instructions on meeting places, gave suggestions on where to eat and what to do in our free time. Worked well with our driver, Parvel, taking us to photo stops that were not included but which they knew were worth the effort.
