Guide arrived late and compounded this further for the gathered group of 8 by waiting for 2 non arrivals. She then failed to warn against pickpockets at the Louvre, resulting in the trauma of wallet theft. None in the party were impressed.

Giverny and Versailles Small Group Day Trip from Paris
Paris, France
My Rating

Driver/Guide both knowledgeable and interesting though dual announcements in English and Spanish somewhat distracting and not the best views from the transport provided, thankfully for 6 passengers instead of the 8 booked. The lunch was mass produced and mediocre.

No driver on arrival and further wait after contacting office then no apology from substitute who strode ahead without offering assistance with any of the luggage - most unimpressed!

Hadrian's Villa and Villa d'Este Half-Day Trip from Rome

My Rating

Enjoyed viewing both sites after escaping the traffic chaos due to a general transport strike which led to our guide departing the tour in Rome before many of the passengers! Guide adequate but not memorable.

Ho hum - what a scramble and somewhat lacklustre presentation from the local guide - not a patch on the tours we enjoyed.

Great experience once again thanks to our young American guide supplying us with a worthy commentary for the simply amazing art and marble statues on display - her knowledge and passion transformed the afternoon and subsequent tour of the gardens. Absolutely brilliant!

Welcomed by our courteous and helpful driver who was waiting to meet us on arrival and who handled our baggage efficiently as he escorted us to a very comfortable and immaculately clean car. In addition he retrieved a missing mobile phone which had been dropped in the vehicle and returned this early the following morning which was greatly appreciated. Excellent service!
