Yes, this quote is for 1 adult passenger.

Can the itinerary be personalized and shortened to allow travel to Hamburg by August 9th?

We're unable to modify the itinerary as it is finalized. If you choose to leave the tour early, the price will remain unchanged, as the cost is set by the tour operator based on the entire schedule.

We are wondering the actual itinerary each day and how much time daily would you have in places other than on the bus traveling from one place to another. We are wondering how each day would look and how much "free time" would exist in each area.

We only have the published information that is on the website. Once you are booked, you will be sent a copy of the itinerary. A more detailed itinerary will be provided upon arrival on the tour.

How does this tour accommodate seniors?

We can accommodate anyone that is able and comfortable participating in the activities on the tour. The guest will be required to rotate seats while on the motor coach. There will be a considerable amount of activity required. You will be required to climb full flights of stairs, walk on uneven terrain and stand for long periods of time.

Is there a specific arrival time required in London at the start of the tour?

We ask that you arrange your flights to arrive between 6 AM and 3 PM if you choose to purchase transportation through us. If you arrive outside of the transfer window, you will be responsible for arranging your own transportation.

How is airline flights booked? And is transportation from and to airport included?

You will be responsible for booking your flights to and from the start and end of the tour. We do offer arrival and departure transfers at the rate of $55 USD per transfer.

Is this a driving tour? Will we get any time to walk around and explore?

Your primary mode of transportation will be on a motor coach. You will have stops to sight see, stretch your legs and get meals while going from one location to the next.

is there a lot of walking on this tour

This tour will require a considerable amount of activity. You may need to climb a full flight of stairs, navigate uneven terrain or stand for prolonged periods of time.

Not really my type of holiday travel! The stops are short and mainly at freeway truck and rest stops. The hotels were way too far from any real sites and some were small and cramped. I expected this tour to be hectic, given the countries visited and the days involved, . but IMO it could have been organized a lot better. The Tour Director and Driver were excellent but working with hands tied behind her back.The driven tours by coach just went too fast apart from road blocks or traffic jams. I appreciate that the TD kept mentioning that there are other tours by Cosmos, Globes that are lconcentrated on longer stays, however if they are at the hotels that we stayed at, then seeing the good sights are going to be a massive struggle. IMHO, even if the costs are higher for better hotels and safer areas, most would rather pay than skimp. Most of the stops overnight did not even have any decent restaurants where one could experience a decent meal of the region. Yes there were a couple of organized option dinners that involved costs, but these had to be reached via the coach. The three included meals are at the hotels which really did not have kitchens other than ones that could prepare breakfasts and the meals were simple and buffet style with one fixed item being served. As I started it may be OK for some, but definitely not my cup for tea!Show more
