    Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Romantic European tour with Insight Vacations. We are saddened to hear that certain aspects of your time on the road did not meet your expectations. Also, we recognise that you would have liked the Optional Experiences to have been included in the itinerary; yet, we offer these to allow our guests to explore further or to give those that would prefer to undertake independent sightseeing or leisure time, the opportunity to do so. Nonetheless, your observations in relation to some of the accommodations provided will be shared with our team for further review to ensure a better experience for our guests going forward. With that in mind, we sincerely hope to have the opportunity to restore your full faith in our guided holidays in the near future.
