Because, the tour is not what we expected, traveling 4.5 hours from one place to stay there barely 30 minutes, and then traveling again 4.5 hours to go to the hotel, definitely that's not the definition of a tour, our tour guide of the firs..t 3 days, was excellent but then you pass us to a different "guide" and was a horrible service. Definitely not worth the money, and the food service is very bad, only Chinese food options, not everyone likes Chinese, and the day of the train tour, our lunch was cold. The only good thing was the landscaping, good pictures but not enough time to enjoy the place and more than 8 hours traveling is just something very stupid.!Read full review
Tour was good not to bad. Accommodation is good. Its the discomfort we had because we are not allowed yo use the bus washroom and we have to hold our pee for 2- 3 hrs travel till we reach our next stop/destination. Need to improve food ..selectikns. Chinese buffet for lunch and dinner in same day. Last lunch we had was very bad. Other than that everything is ok.Read full review

Fast paced informative tour of area and historical areas. Most days are just guided for half day with afternoon on your own for exploring. Travel day very long but stops for historical sights are very good with time to see places. Would ..use them again for a tour.Read full review
Loved the small tour. It was almost like having a private chauffer. We were a little apprehensive at first since were almost the only English- only speaking passengers. However, your guide was great. He made us feel welcome right from th..e beginning and watched out for us during the whole tour. We had a special hotel upgrade which was also handled well. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.Read full review

Good tour especially if you don’t have much time in Barcelona. Sagrada Familia should have been the last stop in the itinerary since there is so much to see in this place.
Though we booked the tour on short notice on 27 August 2019 it was only after ascertaining that the tour was available for 30 August 2019 and the booking was calculated as per tour itinerary listed, was accepted and full amount charged to m..y credit card. Our ordeal started after that. The tour operator based in US (our tour was in Canada) had very poor communication and sent us the confirmation only 29th evening when our tour was to commence from 7Am on 30th and that too after numerous calls. Second shock came after they cancelled our meal plan and optional tours citing short notice as the reason and were asked to buy these on site waiting in long Qs. Third shock was that they totally dropped Jasper which was part of itinerary as per their original itinerary advertised and booking accepted for. Instead they changed itinerary by unnecessarily adding one day/night stay at Calgary on 30th night when we had already booked hotel at our own cost in Calgary for 29th night assuming our tour would start at 7 AM on 30th. So, the actual tour started on 31st. All this was communicated to us only at the last minute without any scope for change or cancellation. Our purpose of visiting Rocky mountain in Jasper (most beautiful part) besides Banff was defeated having gone all the way from India via Vancouver (where tour was booked). Final shock came when hotels in Calgary and Banff were found to be totally substandard (only one night they upgraded to a slightly better hotel citing reservation in their substandard hotel was unavailable). The actual tour operator, WESTAR based in Calgary was good and only saving grace. Would never recommend anyone this tour operator.Read full review
The tour was good on the whole. We were not very happy with the guide. He made some snide remarks when a certain group including us said that we were not interested in seeing the bull fighting arena at Ronda & when we did not want to go for.. the Flamenco dance & dinner as we had already done that in Barcelona. We are vegetarians so had no interest in taking the meal offer. A guide should not make embarrassing remarks & hurt the sentiments. After all its optional & he /she has no right to make anyone feel otherwise. Generally we were not happy. Then he did not take us to Balem Tower at Lisbon. We did ask him & he replied in the negative. So we took a hurried walk to the tower on our own. The itinerary should be fulfilled at all cost.
The bus was comfortable & the hotels too. We wish the hotels were ner the city so that it would be easy to find food.
I can recommend you to others but these things should be taken care of. On the whole we were satisfied.
Thank You.Read full review
