    5/5 Accomodation 5/5 Airport transfers 5/5 Communication with Tour Radar when needed 4/5 Guides; Greece/Turkey (5/5), Armps was great for us in the van also for this second half. However overall 3/5 for me due to Value for Money. I spent $6,733.63AUD on this tour (I wanted my own room) + flights ($4100AUD) in September (end of season) (from Australia) so for ($11,000AUD) value for money was not there. Here is why; 'Luxe' - You cannot call it 'Luxe tour' when Lux = luxury, which in western world means, relaxed and slow paced with 'finer' things. Whilst accomodation was FANTASTIC, the tour was rushed for the first part and most of the days spent entirely in the van with very little warning making it very rushed. The small Van lacked speakers, for those in the back to hear and understand driver giving local information, and usb ports to charge phones for camera's, an absolute must for any tour bus. When whole days are spent in the van, advanced warning is essential. Giving folk time to get snacks the day before, approximate times for stops etc. is also needed for us women so we know when the toilet breaks are. Although our guide for the second part was fantastic at estimating this. 'Self guided' - is not what you think. They give small group tours in local places, you are not 'self guided' ie. Here's a map go find us at end of day. That is what I thought self guided meant, however, all the local guides were great and very informative. Greece and Turkey sections they were sensational. Optional tours don't run unless 50% of the group want to do them - in a group of 4 or 5 this can be awful as it pits people against each other. Adjinis are a young company looking to continue to improve and have been very receptive to feedback. Once vans are updated that will make their tours far more in line with 'Luxe'.
