We were very happy with the itinerary and the places we were taken to. We saw some marvellous sights. The food was good and the hotels were fine although there were times when we didn’t have the time to fully appreciate them. We have reservations about the management of the trip. From Our point of view we experienced three different groups and our first 4 days was at the tail end of the tour of a Spanish speaking group who dominated the guide who was not able to really attend to the English speakers. She did try but did not have time for both groups and the two groups never melded. The second group that we were placed with was better but just as the group bonded were were hived off to complete the journey with a third group. This meant interacting with our third guide in 10 days. This would appear to be a management issue and out of the hands of the guides who tried to do their best. The company seemed more concerned with filling seats than developing a coherent travel experience.Show more
