    This tour was EXCELLENT and that was all thanks to Julie, our tour director. The tour itself was also excellent, the itinerary and all the optional extras were fantastic, we did them all, but Julie really made the trip unforgettable. We had not been on a tour before and were unsure what expect, maybe just being on a bus with a guide telling us some highlights or maybe an over the top, fake energy type, but no, we had Julie. From the very first night in Amsterdam she had us all sorted and feeling like we could relax, switch off our brains and just trust the process. Really all we had to do was be where we told when and then have a wine and relax. Her energy levels were bang on point and I don’t know how she kept track of everyone and everything and kept a smile on her face but she more than managed. Her knowledge of all the places we visited was truly astonishing knew no limits. We were also fortunate enough to have very skilled bus driver in Mario. He got us around safely and played a vital part in us having a great time! We will certainly be booking another trip and will happily rearrange our schedules/lives if it can be with Julie!

    We had a fantastic experience with our Glimpse of Europe tour. Thanks to our tour director Steve and our driver who made our trip fun and recharge our memory with history. For a short tour, we were able to explore a good amount of places and fulfilled some of our dreams. We had a wonderful group as well who we were really nice even though we came from different countries and backgrounds and gaining friendships is a blessing. Overall we had a fantastic experience.

    Ron

    Asked on January 17th, 2025

    Can/ do you book flights for your guests or do they have to do this on their own? If you are able to book, I live outside of Boston so I could travel from Boston (BOS), Manchester, NH (MHT) or from Providence, RI (PVD). Can I buy travel insurance through you? If I wanted to, could I pay for an extra day in Paris past the tour - could I pay for transport to Charles de Gaulle as a result? My son does not have a passport. If you do book flights for your customers, could I book the flight now knowing that I am in the process of getting the passport (it will take some time)? Does the tour guide stay throughout the whole tour?
