    I really liked the style of the trip, with a small group and many events together so that we got to know one another. I appreciated having almost all of the travel included rather than a list of optional activities. Bashkim was an outstanding toor guide and his knowledge was incredibly useful and informative.

    I was very dissatisfied with many aspects of this trip, including the 'bait and switch' of lowering the price and then not offering me a refund on that price difference.For a comfort trip, this felt no different than a Basix.

    Our guide was wonderful. Her insight and information given as we traveled from place to place allowed us to have a great feel of the places we visited. The accommodations were as varied as the places we visited. Her choices of dining establishments were spot on for each different location.

    The trip was interesting and well organized. However there are a couple of suggestions that would make the trip better in my opinion. Some companies have a policy of insisting people move seats daily. I found it annoying that the same two women grabbed the front seat every day. I would have sounded very petty if I had asked them to move. I also like commentary on the daily lives of people not just the political background.

    We had a really overall great time. There were a few cities I would have liked an extra day in and a few that we maybe didn’t need to spend so long or could have maybe skipped to have a little more time in others.
