Great week tour of the Balkans! Our guide Ana was fantastic and an amazing driver also. We learned a lot, had comfortable 3 star lodgings that seemed deluxe in some cases. The only thing to take note of is that there is a lot of driving as the distance between locations is not close and also some border crossings can take a long time to cross. Both of these points being out of control of the tour operator. A note to Tour Radar. In your description there are places which indicate that breakfast, lunch and dinner are included. You should change this to just breakfast to have everything aline in your document.
