What people love about Mediterranean Tours for Seniors
- Iberian Explorer
The participants were friendly. Travel Director Jorge was excellent. I just want to be cleared next time of optional tour
- Balkan Delight
It is an very enjoyable 12 days tour with Kassie as our tour director. The variation of visited location and activities is really make the whole trip always full with surprise and make me feel like keep seeing new thing. I always travel free and easy because I always think that travel in big group will have a lot of "delays" and "waiting"...I have to mention that Kassie is really good in managing the time and handling group members expectation.
- Fátima, Lourdes & Shrines of Spain - Faith-Based Travel
My tour experienced was beyond my expectations despite we were late to join the group for 2 days due to some problems for our lay over in Moscow which was a hell to me and very bad experienced in that place.Luckily we were able to joined the fantastic group in Fatima. Our tour guide Estefania was very helpful and knowledgeable. She is a very nice tour guide. Also Sergio ( driver) was very nice and helpful for all the needs of the group. I’m looking forward for next trip with Cosmos hoping my tour guide still Estefania Cortes and Sergio the bus driver. Hotels were good but foods in some hotel not really great but still ok.
