Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Nothing fancy about the beds, and nothing wrong with them either. No hesitation recommending them.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Good value for what's included.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing.
