Berlin City Hop-on Hop-off Tour
Berlin, Germany
My Rating

good way to get a general look around the city and staff are very helpful and easy to find. found it quite a slow way to travel so not ideal if mainly using just to get to different places i.e. quicker probably just to walk in some cases or use the metro .

Skip the Line: Vatican in One Day
Rome, Italy
My Rating

excellent tour. superb visit to Vatican museum,Sistine chapel and St Peter’s in morning and then travelled by coach to see the other 3 churches in the afternoon. Meeting point easy to find and all very well organized. Only issue was that did not get to see the Holy Steps at St. John Lateran - a bit disappointed as was an advertised highlight and one of the major reasons for choosing this tour. Was advised that would take too long but the chapel is just across the road from the church and it really only takes a few minutes to see them .Fortunately had time to return by myself the following day.

Skip the Line: Small-Group Milan Walking Tour with da Vinci's 'The Last Supper' Tickets
Milan, Italy
My Rating

excellent introduction to Milan. did not actually go into the cathedral [ as Sunday] or La Scala but there was time afterwards to go back and do these things and guide provided good knowledge base. Lovely to see the Last Supper which requires a booking and the visit definitely enhanced by the commentary from the guide.

Skip the Line: Crypts and Roman Catacombs Small Group Walking Tour
Rome, Italy
My Rating

very interesting tour. Unfortunately spent ages getting to catacombs in heavy traffic and then huge number of tourists at site so long waits - meant St. Clements [which is fascinating] was a bit rushed and I had to leave before seeing the capuchin crypt as already close to 6pm. However was still definitely worth doing

My Rating

very pleasant day - beautiful drive through Bavaria and then boat trip to 2 islands. I particularly enjoyed the tiny little island with the Benedictine convent as so peaceful. The larger island with the monastery and royal palace also very interesting.

The guide [Robert] was outstanding. Extremely well informed and passionate about his subject. I felt I gained an understanding of the use of state terror that would not have been possible if I had done the trip by myself. Very highly recommended.

well worth doing to see this aspect of Thai life - some of the boats [including mine] somewhat fragile but noone seemed to actually end up in the water.
