Fantastic Experience of a life time! Went peak season in the summer so it was a full group of 20 from all over the world. I loved that they created a Whatapp group before the tour so alot of worries were aliviated and any questions could be asked. Shannon the group leader was amazing! Don't know how she did it lol. I will say though, there is a lot of free time in each city. So plan for a couple things in each city with flexible times, so you can change as you go. Hostels were all great make sure to load up on the breakfasts when included! Loved the trains and included activities were all fabulous. This is definitely a more independent tour, make sure you're comfortable going off on your own. (But honestly I had no issues, and English is spoken everywhere). I will mention this though- my group happened to be mostly on the younger side (and therefore big drinkers) I think it's a mixed bag each time, but if that's not your scene make sure you are ok with doing your own thing. All in all, though I loved it. Check the weather before you go, and invest in quality power banks, earphones and sleeping aids. 100% would do againShow more
