    we were stranded in London due to the strike in Greece. No one from Collette contacted me but they did deal with Father Tyler. We had to pay for our hotel the first night and then had to move to another hotel. We had to pay for our meals and we missed the cruise to the Greek islands.

    This is by far one of my best tour experience. This is our second tour with Collette. Our Tour Manager, Amanda Phillips made a big difference. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and quick to respond to everyone’s needs. Amanda provided good places to eat and shop. Our hotels are convenient, clean and walking distance from all the good places to visit. Let’s not forget Visilli, our tour bus driver. He is an awesome driver that can maneuver through tight places. He is amazing! And our Celestial cruise it’s amazing. All the excellent food, great service are fantastic. The ship is big enough and not over crowded. This is perfect for our tour. As for the Foot Steps of St Paul, this tour provided an abundance of experience, knowledge and the most amazing sites. The Greek food are amazing! I highly recommend this tour. And if you’re lucky enough to get Amanda as your tour manager it would be an experience you’ll treasure like we had.

    Yes - the Hotel Capsis in Thessaloniki had bathroom issues - the sink and the shower did not drain and the shower would not stay in position to use and one had to hold it to shower. Additionally, the hotel in Kalambaka did not have irons nor did their housekeeping have a pressing service. This hotel really needs updating or need to find other accommodations in this area. The lobby and dining room are lovely but the rooms are extremely dated and look like they are stuck in the 1960's. The cruise was fun and we loved the Greek islands. When we arrived in Rome, our room looked like it was stuck in the 1950's and the bedding was ancient. The lobby and dining were very nice but our driver to the airport passed the Hotel St. Martin and told us that many Collette travelers stay there in Rome and it was very nice. We were told upon arrival in Rome, that the Roman Serenade extra option had been cancelled without any explanation and had a difficult time obtaining a refund from Collette, as they were told we did not show up for an included dinner, which was not true. Our tour manager, Sophia, in Greece was excellent as were the other guides who joined us in different places. Chiara, our tour manager in Rome, seemed to be very new and wasn't as organized as Sophia. The guide for the Vatican Tour was excellent and Rome did not disappoint!

    Collette had several hours advanced knowledge that we would be stranded in Paris, which was not our final destination. No one was at the Paris Airport to assist us and reassure us that we would be taken care of. Instead we were given verbal phone instructions to lug our baggage to the Novotel Hotel across the airport, up and down escalators, onto a shuttle train not knowing where exactly we were headed. After we were informed our stay in Paris would be more than just one night, someone at Collette did not want us to be moved to downtown Paris so we could at least go and see some of Paris. This was finally arranged with taxi's sent for us. There were 8 of us that took the Rome extention. We were taken to the Athens Airport and 7 of the 8 of us had Business Class seating, which meant we could all use the lounge preflight but the one lady!!!!! This was a very rude thing to do to this lady by your booking staff!!!! While on the plane there were seats available in the Business Class. Someone dropped the ball in this situation!!! She should have been with the rest of us!
