Professionally organized and managed adventure. Tour Director Michael provided excellent support to all members of tour. Explained in clear detail each days events and how we were to prepare for all events. No confusion. Michael had plenty of energy to keep us going. Throwing in lots of surprises such as local bakery items to enjoy and sampling delicious liqueurs on the way. Great sense of humour and many activities on bus to keep entertained. Itinerary was very comprehensive, including city escapades, fine dining, rural adventures and wonderful scenery through Finland and Norway. Excellent bus drivers throughout trip with special mention to Darek who did bulk of driving. We all felt safe with Darek at the wheel.Show more
