I want to especially say thank to the tour guide in Paris whoes name is Amendo. He is a very tall and handsome guy. He has so much patience and kindness. We are appreciated his hard working! Thank you so much for everything! Jing Wang

    Well organised but, as expected in this packed itinerary, many hours spent in the bus. Border delays meant we sometimes arrived at hotels too late to take advantage of their facilities, eg swimming pools, gyms - a shame as the hotels chosen were of a good standard. The food included was very good when part of a buffet, awful when a menu, served at a specific time - sometimes very late - when we had to wait until all guests had arrived. The tours by local guides were very worthwhile and informative. The drivers were excellent, and the on-tour guides friendly and helpful.
