Yasmin Rei· September 9th, 2025Levi was a great tour guide. Very fun and high energy despite how difficult his job could be. He takes his time and puts in the effort to get to know everyone in the group. This guy also knows a lot about the history of Europe. You can really tell that he’s driven with passion and love for his job. He really just makes you feel like you’re traveling with a friend. Great tour leader!Show moreTrip date: August 2025- CMChristine· September 8th, 2025The Itinerary was wonderful but due to traffic jams which are unpredictable, it left some destinations with too little time to appreciate more than a couple of photos. Florence was one example. Adding one more day may have given us that time. Levi worked very hard to accommodate a very diverse group. His extensive knowledge of history and language added another level to our understanding of the places we saw.Show more
Trip date: August 2025 - PATRICIA· September 7th, 2025Levi was very kind soul with a whole lot of responsibilities. He could of used some help at the Venice tour because the city doesn't like large groups like ours. We did get to the bus stop late because the speed boat had to turn around , went wrong way. So that made a few of us that was on boat late for the bus. Levi sent us info on which bus to get on with the link for directions. Thank thank goodness !! Very attentive to our needs. My 83 yr mother need some special care because of knee injury and lung condition and he made sure to give it. She says he is very nice and funny.Show moreTrip date: August 2025
- Aidrienne· September 6th, 2025This was my very first time joining a tour group, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Levi went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt comfortable, and if something wasn’t quite right, he always found a way to make it better. Both Levi and Alex welcomed us with such kindness and warmth that it instantly made the group feel like family. What really stood out was Levi’s passion for history. The way he shared stories and even his own personal experiences made each place we visited come alive. It wasn’t just sightseeing—it felt meaningful and special. And lastly, a heartfelt thank you for the extra ice creams and the laughs you gave us!Show moreTrip date: August 2025
- Shelley· July 25th, 2025Walked average 8 miles; even 10 miles one day. Guide left behind people on two different occasions and only had 29 of us traveling. Guide not familiar with tour places or directions without her Google map; which I could have done myself, Our tour group took care of each other vs the guide making sure things worked out. Positive was scenery was beautiful minus the dirty cities. Traveled Trafalgar Whirlwind 3 yrs prior and it was five stars. Sadly I give Expat Scenic 1 star.Show moreTrip date: July 2025
