  BOOK THIS TRIP!!!!!! I have been wanting to go to Europe for years but because I don’t have a lot of travelling experience, I was really anxious. I just finished this tour and I can honestly say I this was truly an awesome experience. PROS 1. My Trip Leader was amazing. If you go on a tour ask if it’s going to be Renee because you will truly have a great time! She’s knowleageable, professional and organized. Everyone on the team loved her and she was super friendly and flexible. 2. The Bus Driver was a true professional. Mihai was extremely skilled and I felt super at ease during the whole trip no matter how long the drive was. 3. There was free breakfast every day! I saved a lot of money! 4. My tour group was full of friendly and accepting people. There were 30 Australians and 4 Americans. I was the only Asian (from the Philippines) but I felt so welcomed. 5. It was definitely good value for money. I felt at ease doing the trip because I know everything was prepared for me. It definitely saved me from the hassle of missing trains because the drive days were chances for people to catch up on sleep. CONS 1. I can only think of a couple accommodation that was good and that was the one in Rome (Meininger Hostel), Florence (A&O Firenze) and Venice (Anda Venice). The rest were disappointing cleanliness and space-wise especially Schutzenbach Camping in Switzerland and A&O Mitte in Germany. 2. I was with a big group about 36 people, I think it was too much. I had to wake up really early to make sure to get a window seat on the bus. I also needed to be alert on calling dibs on the lower bunk because you will have bunk beds on all accommodations and I can’t count how many times I trip and hurt my legs climbing up and down. As someone who have read the comments before booking, please take note of these things. 1. If you can book the optional activities yourself, do it cause that’s what I did. I found cheaper deals on Klook or Get your guide (apps). If you prefer to spend the free days yourself, book them yourself. Some of my team mates were complaining how expensive some of the activities were. 2. My trip in April got cancelled and I’ve already booked flights and activities even before they announced that it wasn’t a guaranteed trip. Please be careful about this one. I lost money and got super stressed trying to rebook everything. Somehow, the information on Tourradar is lacking so I suggest that you check the Topdeck website directly. 3. Do not overpack. Bring cash. Bring comfortable shoes. Invest on a good camera. Bring a water bottle. Bring a good travel pillow. Do your research. Be mindful of the time and schedule during the tour (no matter how drunk you are the previous night). You will not regret booking this tour. If possible ask if you can get Renee as a Trip Leader and you’re guaranteed to have an awesome time. Thank you so much Renee and Mihai for giving me a wonderful experience in Europe I’ll never forget! I’ll recommend this trip to everyone I know. More success and happiness to the both of you!

  Tour guide and driver were excellent. Experiences were for the most part decent, however, the add ons such as fondue and experiences in Vienna like dinner and concert were extremely underwhelming. The swiss accomodations and experience with host also left little to be desired.

  Tour guide and driver were both friendly and excellent. I really liked that they made me feel welcomed, comfortable, and safe for the entire trip.
