    This tour was a great way to learn about all the places you visit and provides a great introduction to Europe especially if you are travelling to Europe alone or for the first time. It really helped me to get my bearings in Europe as well as meet the loveliest bunch of people to share my journey with. The tour guides are also amazing at providing tips on places to visit and eat.

    Jared is one of a kind. It’s a gift to be relatable to a bus load of people from all parts of the world. His passion for European history is infectious & I can honestly say I learnt more about history on this trip than my entire time at school. He does love a good time & gets great joy in sharing his knowledge of all the city’s & attraction in a real & respectful way. His playlist is on point & how can you not love a tour guide who can rap Kanye’s whole back catalogue! “I think it’s really cool” is his saying & it will be very cool if you get him as a guide.

    Jared is one of a kind. Very few people can truly relate to a bus load of people from all different backgrounds with their own high expectations of what they will get from a tour. 20 days with Jared I learnt more about history than 13 years in school. Jared displays understanding of the significance of each building, city or attraction. His playlist is on point & how can you not respect someone who can rap Kanye’s whole back catalogue. “I think it’s kinda cool” is his saying & its very cool if you’re lucky enough to get Jared Worsteling on your trip.

    Jared was an absolutely amazing tour guide. He was knowledgeable, professional and it truly felt like I was travelling with a friend. He was very organised and always made sure we didn't have to worry about anything during our 20 day trip. His extensive travel/work experiences allowed him to give us so many wonderful recommendations and reliable information about the places we visited. I would not hesitate to sign up to any tour Jared leads. Thank you so much!

    Jared was the best tour guide. Informative but not over the top and relatable to the group. Just felt like he was one if you friends on tour!
