    All meals should have been included in the package with possibly 1 evening on our own. Also all excursions should have been included with the package such as the boat tour on the Seine. Last year we traveled to Scotland and Ireland with CIE Tours and it was all inclusive. The only 4 star hotel was in Lucerne and the Pullman hotel is not a 5 star hotel. Robin the driver was excellent.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the 12 day European Experience tour. Kassie Jones is an excellent organiser and has so much knowledge about the places we visited. She also showed care for all of the passengers. I appreciated her assistance with getting on and off the bus. Kassie also gave us information about places to eat and where to find toilets. I appreciated her advice on where to buy earrings in Venice. Kassie helped to make our trip fun, enjoyable, and a learning experience.

    I absolutely loved my tour. All the hotels were fantastic with the exception of the hotel we used in Germany, the staff were rude and abrupt to our Tour Director who was polite and professional in his dealings with staff. Although the hotel in Germany was pleasant and comfortable the customer service could do with some attention. It would help if staff smiled when checking you in and smiled when answering your queries rather than treating you like you are a nuisance.

    • TrafalgarOperatorWritten August 2024

      When traveling over holidays such as Christmas and New Year's, we do our best to plan so that you won't miss anything. Many main sites remain open during holidays or have hours that allow us to adjust the itinerary accordingly. We will move things around on the days to make it work so our guests miss nothing. If an inclusion is not possible due to closures, we will replace it for the guest with another experience of equal or better value. Christmas Day and New Years Eve – Festive meals are included on these special days at no extra cost.
