    Overall the tour was great. Our tour leader, Antino, was wonderful. The itinerary was very good. Some of the hotels should be upgraded, especially the one in Porto. Overall the included meals were good. This was our first bus tour ( age 71). Enjoyed it.

    Loved the tour but found it almost a marathon. Too rushed, two nights in more places would be good and hotels closer to the cities. The provided meals were not great, slow service and most times we missed desert as the bus driver had to finish on time... Show more

    The guide and accommodations were subpar and was not worth my money and time. The restaurants selected for dinners were awful. All breakfasts were bad, bad coffee, cold food and same thing in every hotel.

    The tour needs more videos about the cities we visited and and they should be presented in the bus before we reach the places.
