Sorry for the very late review. Our schedules got so busy after our vacation. We took 14 days Europe Trip without Disney Jun 2024 and had an wonderful experience. I am not an review person, so excuse if I miss any important point. We booked this trip 6 months in advance and didn't think about the itinerary. Just an week before, I got so stressed out after seeing the full itinerary. We are not used to long Bus journeys and we have an younger child. We tried to reach out to customer service and they respond in 10 to 15 mins and convinced that we will not face any issue with long travels in Bus. Still, I am not convinced and panicked until we reach the main pickup point. The bus is super comfortable with upper racks and recline options. Good Leg space. We had around 32 people in our bus from different countries, loaded our bags in coach, got introduced each other and met our wonderful guide. Santhosh is our tour guide manager , well experienced, little strict with timings and engages you with some activity in Bus. Through out our travel, he encouraged us to conduct some games, dumb charades, Singing and Dancing. Coming to the itinerary, whoever prepared it, big shout out. Very well organized, covers all major highlighted places and planned well along with Food. As mentioned in some of the reviews, few additional tour can be done only if time permits and acceptance from majority of Passengers. Again I repeat, this is an additional add-on tour which we need pay extra. We did planned for Zurich city tour which is not part of our itinerary but most of the Passengers want to visit and agreed to pay extra but we can't make it because of 2 hrs traffic. Europe laws are very strict with hours coach captain can drive. Most of our days start at 7.30am and we reach to hotel by 8 to 8.30pm. If in case we want to go additional night tour, guide will plan and start the day at 8.30am to 9am and ends at 11pm. People who book group travel should understand that there will be couple of things which we plan may not happen because of bad weather and traffic or other incidents locally. Blaming tour company and guide is not going to help. Also, safety is very important to keep in mind. Let's go with Lodging and food, most of the lodging in Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Parris are good except one lake house near Geneva where Air conditioning was not working properly in some rooms. Also, that property looks go distressed. But beautiful location, amazing view but poor accommodation and food in only one place. We did raised this concern with tour guide to make sure they figure alternate accommodation for that spot alone. Most of the days, Lunch and dinner will be Indian food mainly north Indian food and Continental breakfast. Most of the days, they try to make Indian breakfast like upma, poha kichadi and Indian chai. If in case, you want to try out different cuisine outside, you will have time in Paris and Italy. Very smooth journey overall and we thoroughly enjoyed all 14 days with new people, new place and amazing travel experience. We didn't planned to Disney as we been to Florida Disney world. Our fellow passengers from India had good experience there. We skipped Disney and went to Versailles garden. Wonderful place but very short time. 4 hrs is not enough to cover inside the Palace.
