One Journey Four (5) Countries 2024 - from Zagreb

This tour with Elite Travels was busy - so much to see in so little time. Hotels and food were great. Best part was Damir, our guide for the entire trip. I've taken many tours and he stands out as the best of them all. He was excellent in every way - in giving us clear instructions, telling us what to expect for the day, very patient, answered all out questions, and was very knowledgeable of the places we visited, including their histories. Our driver, Tatiana, was not just an expert driver, but very helpful and kind. Our English speaking local guides were all good, but I would point out Kristina as the best. She had all kinds of surprises for us, including giving me a dance lesson on a local dance and writing my name in cyrilic alphabet. Scars and stories from the war of the 1990s are heartbreaking but I deeply appreciated seeing and hearing them firsthand. Travel must be an educational experience of both the good and bad. So thank you, Elite Travels for a wonderful 10 day journey!

Europe Escape

I just got back from my 3rd solo trip with Expat Explorer & can't wait to join some more. This time was a 12 day Christmas and New Year's Europe Escape 2023/2024 and being the first time I was ever away from home for the holidays, it was truly magical, everything I imagined plus more. Our tour guide Luke was very personable, knowledgeable, caring and simply fun. He went out of his way to make sure each and everyone of us was well taken care of & provided plenty of ideas/options to us to get the most we could get out of each and every single day. Luke even dressed up as Santa Claus on Christmas Day!?! Our driver, James, was very professional, courtesies and when able, took the time to get to know us but always made it a priority to get us to our next destination as well as keep us safe. This tour is fast-paced with plenty of early morning departures and lots of walking but in doing so, the trade off is that you get to experience as much as possible in each of the various destination cities along the way. As a solo traveler, I never felt unsafe or alone and the camadarie of our group was instant. I appreciate that Expat Explorer allows you the freedom to decide between various pre-set excursions in the various destinations or the opportunity to explore on your own and/or even some combo of the two. If you are on the fence about one these tours, I say do your self a favor and just book it :) - Christie Fick

Europe Jewel

This is my first tour experience and I am in no position to compare, but our team Explore Together 23 was exceptional, we easily blended together as one big family, caring for each other where needed. i had a motto of “making our dreams bigger than our memories “ to which I shared with some of our team members. Matt is a historian in his own right, giving us lectures, without notes; on the history of the Country we are about to enter into. His timing on his series was perfectly timed that sets the tone of excitement for us. Another thing worth mentioning is his professionalism and efficiency in dealing with issues that could affect our schedule. But he has also to strike the balance between the time involved in dealing with the issue and the challenge presented to arived at resolving the issue at hand. Pascal, on the other hand; is a Star, very efficient and reliable in his driving skills that puts every body at ease. His music added life to the team, keeping them entertained during the long haul. He is competent in following impromptu directions from our local tour guide, this happened because there was huge demonstrations at Budapest that time that it was required of us to changed routes. He can easily manoeuvre sharp bends and tight spots. Matt and Pascal had a great teamwork. I am convinced they can easily get a 5 ratings each.

Best of the Adriatic

I concluded the UK/Ireland/France trip in mid-October and am still raving about it. Indus travel (specifically Rachel) did a wonderful job - very responsive and attentive to detail. Trip well-organized, very knowledgeable guides. Look forward to travelling with Indus again.

• Christmas & New Year

European Delight

Excellent tour that covered pretty much all the hotspots along the way. Nice and clean hotels with the exception of one. Coaches were clean and the drivers carried water bottles in the fridge... you can get one for a Euro if needed. Europamundo's own coaches have vending machines in the bus and you can fetch water, coke, and other drinks. Most of the coaches did not have usb charging points which is a big negative as we spent lot of time on the road and phone needed charging. Tour guides were awesome, knowledgeable, and accommodative. Having exclusive local guides at some places was great as we got direct knowledge and in-depth history of the place during the visits. Overall it was a great experience on a 17 days tour from Rome to Paris.

• In-depth Cultural

Enchanted Landscapes

I had a wonderful time and loved all the sites. Tour guides were amazingly pleasing, informative and accommodating. Patricia Falchi, what a gem. She was dedicated and kind and always available and willing to answer questions and attend all travelers. Albert was also awesome, 'Familia' was his trademark and that is how he made us feel, like a Family. Overall great experience, tour, and it was a pleasure and so exciting to meet new people and new relationships! a must do for any worldly traveler. There is a lot of walking, July is very hot at 40celsius, moving around and activity but how else will you see the wonders of Europe in 15 days!!! loved the Swiss Alps - truly the best experience overall. Food and people in Italy were the best, and sangria in Spain was awesome!! Paris sites were awesome, food was also very good, except for frittes lol. they will serve you a good steak with fries but not too bad. Switzerland can use some customer service skills particularly the waitresses not making any effort to communicate in any other language but their own, but overall what a beautiful country. Snobby and arrogant attendant in the gift shop at the Alps (lost sales cause the treatment was horrible) but the alps themselves - omg what an experience!!! Would definitely do it again and make sure that Patricia and Albert are my tour guides. Sending my love..

Sicily & Aegadian Islands (10 days/9 nights) - starting from Catania

Essential Britain & Ireland

Covered alot of ground and very busy of course with never enough time, but that was expected. Great driver, found tour director somewhat unenthusiastic - would have liked more concise info on how each day was going to progress and a little more interaction with the group. Hotel Metropole was so hot and too noisy to have window open - most of the hotel rooms were so hot all night. Holiday Inn York room was rather well tread and dirty. Other than that a great trip with excellent meals except the dinner at Holiday Inn York.

Best of Ireland and Scotland (15 Days)

Everything went smoothly.

Croatia and the Balkans

A really interesting trip; beautiful countries with interesting histories. Sarajevo a highlight for most as so surprisingly attractive and enjoyable. Several good tours and activities included. Nice range of fellow travellers from 30-80 including couples and singles.
