    This was such had fun trip. We had a wonderful time. Everything was very well organized and our Tour Director, Tyler and driver Clint were simply incredible. We met lots of great people in our small group and look forward to traveling with ToD again.

    We enjoyed our tour but was disappointed that TourRadar’s description that we signed up for was not the 2025 Tours of Distinction tour. More meals were included in the tour described on TourRadar. I suggest checking all tours advertised with the tour company before signing up through TourRadar.
