  The taxi transfer went to the wrong train station despite my clear directions including address. After contacting Europamundo they said to go by ourselves to the hotel and they would only refund half. The whole episode was very stressful because ; We had traveled 9 and a half hours by train and were so tried and handling all our luggage. We arrived in a very busy confusing station unable to speak the language. Our phones were out of charge and we had to beg for help in a shop to get them charged to call. I had been very clear via email and phone messages to Europamundo and Tour Radar regarding the station we will be arriving at. I also phone to Europeamundo 2 hours before arrival all the while being reassured that there would be no issue. We got to the hotel 2 hours late and the places we wanted to visit were already closed. Also the transport from the airport would have cost them at least twice as much as what it costs them to transfer is from a local train station. It was an extremely well known station and the next day on a tour of the city ,ironically, the First icon they showed us was the station we arrived at! As soon as I was able I contacted Tour Radar in Europe, the response was good and they said they were investigating, however it's been 3 weeks since I heard from them. This is the first time I have tried a tour and I couldn't believe that it could be so stressful at the very start and what could have easily been rectified was made more stressful.:-(

  This was a great tour, with local guides and city tours, it was well organized. The accommodations were decent and we had some free time to explore the places on our own, too. Overall, we had a good experience with the operator and we were in communication with the operation team the whole time in case we needed something through the tour, which we appreciated. Really recommend them!

  Just completed the Balkanic Miracle tour. We had a great experience due to the comprehensive itinerary and incredible logistics and planning by Europamundo. Despite the distances we had to travel everyday, the Europamundo guides gave us plenty of rest stops and managed the border crossings smoothly and efficiently. For the Bulgaria-Romania-Serbia-Bosnia leg, we were only 4 English speakers on a full bus of Spanish speakers. Having read reviews from other English speakers who ended up on majority Spanish-speaking buses, we were initally apprehensive. But kudos to Europamundo for assigning to our small group one of their most capable bilingual English and Spanish speaking guides, Viktor Toshev. He went the extra mile every day to ensure that we were not treated as an afterthought (as some other reviewers on other tours have commented). He was organised, his commentary clear, thorough but succinct, and his energy and enthusiasm was infectious, making the sites come alive. Due to the level of care we were given, it often felt like we were on a private customised tour and not a big group package tour. A good guide makes all the difference! The modular nature of the tour meant we had to be handed over to other guides along the way. This was smoothly done thanks to the efficency of guides Bibliana, Maria, Marco, Elena and Rafa. Great job Europamundo!
