From beginning to end and the 12 days in between Trafalgar had every detail of the very busy touring schedule carefully planned. Instructions were repeated numerous times so there was no doubt when to meet for guided tour. Free time was given at each tour site after being guided, with instructions when to re group. touring was thorough main historic sights were included with trip package. There were numerous optional experiences averaging about $100 US each. Arriving at hotel late and very tired we DID NOT have to stand in line to get checked in, we were pre checked in. On arrival handed our keys and directly to room. End of trip transfer to airport was organized and stress free.Show more

Thanks for sharing your feedback with us here at Trafalgar. We always like to know where we’re going right and where we could be making improvements. At times, ensuring that we take our guests to the unique attractions outlined in our itineraries within the given time frame can mean some early starts. However, we do recognise that holidays are also meant for relaxing. As such, we have shared your concerns with our Product Development Department to establish what potential improvements we might make to this particular schedule, and make sure that the pace of the trip continues to ensure the best experiences for our guests going forward. That said, we are pleased to receive your high praise for our dedicated and knowledgable Travel Director, and it's great to know that you felt that the selected hotels met the high standards we are recognised for. In light of this, we hope to have the opportunity to host you once more, and to improve your impression of our guided holidays.
