- May· July 12th, 2024Although my flight was 2 hours delayed due to weather, the paid transport from the airport was there to pick me up from CDG airport-really appreciated that. The itinerary of 3 sites a day was excellent-always something new to see, with good variety and WELL paced. Mike, our guide was excellent-very knowledgeable, caring and got us to sites BEFORE crowds (e.g. Memorial). Mike’s coordination with our driver, Francesco, was good. Suggestions for meals that were not included, were given for us to try local dishes (e.g. at the Cat Cafe). Accommodations were satisfactory. A/C should be at every hotel due to the heat.Show moreTrip date: June 2024

Katherine
Traveler•Written November 2024Is this NZ dollars? Re 'not a guaranteed departure date' can you please give more information? Is there a minimum number of people before the tour proceeds? Reason for asking - friend booked tour and, while decent and ethical that tour went ahead, she and companion were only ones on the tour. Please clarify whether NZD or AUD.
- CosmosOperator•Written November 2024
It was provided to you in NZD. In regards to the group size number of passengers we can have up to an average of 40 passengers. However maximum is 46 - 50 passengers on a coach with Cosmos Europe. If the tour is not guaranteed, then we will need at least 50 - 60% passengers numbers in order for a tour to be guaranteed. Currently at the moment on that particular departure, 13th June 2025, there are 47 spaces currently available, subject to change.
