Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for. Crew were professional without being stiff about it.

Well paced over 8 days with enough free time to not feel herded. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Guides answered every question, including the daft ones. Good value for what's included.

Everything was arranged properly — transfers, entries, all of it. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Good value for what's included.
