The tour manager was exceptional and so were the first two hotels. The local guide in Vienna was very hard to understand. It especially was unhelpful that she didn't seem to think the placement of her mic mattered. The hotel in Budapest was sub standard.Ronnie Meek

While I loved visiting the countries and participating in some of the events, I was disappointed in the Christmas markets. The decorations were nice but the markets were mainly food and drink and the quality of the gifts was less than I expected. In hindsight, I would have been better off visiting the local shops and skipping the markets.

Too expensive for what you get on tour. Last hotel was not good. Too much free time. Too far away from Christmas markets.

It was a beautiful and historical tour and experience and I would recommend to anyone. All the cities were magnificent in their own ways. Also, our tour guide (Dariusz)

The tour experience was amazing overall! I loved having Jana as our Tour Guide- she was very knowledgeable and kind. She was very quick to think on her toes in any type of unforeseen situation and just went with it calmly. The hotels and experiences were amazing. Our Bus Driver was fantastic- I felt like he was a long lost cousin that has always been a part of my family! I also loved the people on our trip- they were a great group of people to travel with. We truly lucked out overall!Jacqueline Ryczek

An enjoyable romp through 5 European countries visiting a different Christmas market each day, while also seeing the significant sights of the city. Our tour guide added so much to the trip with him recounting his time living under communist rule and how that compares the current environment. Trip was perfection.

Tour was great and I would recommend it. 2 improvements. It would be helpful to know the daily itinerary before the trip and know what attractions are included in the price of the tour as well as which dinners are included as well as how much free time we have in each destination for planning purposes Also in one hotel we were asked to leave our passports with the tour guide. This is not a good practice in my opinion I was not at all comfortable in doing this I have traveled a lot abroad but only 2 tours but this practice should be re-evaluated. The hotel in Hungary was mediocre at best

I couldn't have asked for a better experience than what I received traveling with Collette. The Christmas Markets, and the many opportunities to experience the history of Europe through castles and churches was incredible.

We had a wonderful time. The experience was great and the tour ran very smoothly. The hotels selected for our stay in Prague and Vienna were amazing and very well located. Budapest hotel was off the beaten path and the rooms were very small.Donald Davis
