Lee Rivers - Traveled, May 2024
The perfect 3-city trip.*Personal information removed by Feefo* (the TD) was information packed, always friendly and smiling, and accessible. She made the trip easy. *Personal information removed by Feefo*(the driver) is the ultimate professional. Always safe, on-time, and provided a comfortable ride. Excellent mix of extraordinary excursions and free time. This was my first Trafalgar trip but it won't be my last. The Prague Vienna Budapest itinerary gave us all the highlights, in-depth excursions with local tour guides, and time to explore the cities on our own. The tour director ( *Personal information removed by Feefo*) was extremely informative, helpful and friendly. We can't wait for our nest Trafalgar experience.

You can't go wrong with Trafalgar. Professional bus driver, clean coach, wonderful excursion choices, and informed local guides. *Personal information removed by Feefo* was very professional, helpful, caring, and prepared for each day. She is a superb trip guide. No surprise, the tour guides in each city were excellent. The trip was well planned and we were always informed of the day's itinerary and given times to meet. The hotels were top notch, with our favorite being the Budapest Crowne Plaza because of the buffet breakfast. The staff in the breakfast room were very helpful and efficient, not to mention the wonderful selection of fresh fruit and juices and multiple food choices. One of our favorite excursions was the Danube dinner cruise with the lovely buffet dinner. My favorite museum for any city would be the Fine Arts museum in Vienna. The Vienna concert with classical music, opera, and ballet was also enjoyed by all. The chosen excursions were all great choices. Three cheers for Trafalgar!

Prague, Vienna & Budapest Tour! Trafalgar service is simply the best. Our Tour Director *Personal information removed by Feefo*, driver to the local specialists provided us with the added knowledge & information that made our trip so meaningful. Keep it up! This is our first experience with Trafalgar. Our Tour Director *Personal information removed by Feefo*, our driver & the local specialists are simply very knowledgeable & awesome. The tour are designed with its uniqueness that most other tours can't provide. For this I am really grateful to have the opportunity to experience it.

Great time! Our tour guide *Personal information removed by Feefo* was very personable and helpful. She was also funny. Loved the itinerary. Just the right amount of time for us. We liked staying 3 nights in each city. I had been thing of taking a Viking cruise along the same route but realized we needed move time in each city.

Tour leader, *Personal information removed by Feefo*, was fantastic!! Tour was very well organized and everyone on the tour was very friendly. Would have liked more time in Bratilsava to sightsee as well as eat lunch. Would have liked more time to see more things in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna.

A Heartfelt Trip Through Prague, Vienna and Budapest. Trafalgar's service was super. We got an email about a week before the tour from the travel guide who would be traveling with us, as well as regular communications from Trafalgar, telling us everything we needed to know. Communication between AAA, who we used to book the trip, and Trafalgar, was seamless. Unlike most of our other group travel experiences, this 10 day trip through three cities in Europe shined because we really jelled as a group, and that was largely due to the wonderful tone set by our great overall Trafalgar trip guide *Personal information removed by Feefo*. He set up a way for all of us to communicate online with each other during the duration of the trip, kept us gently organized, and set realistic expectations, while routinely exceeding them. When one of members of the group unfortunately took ill for a day, he guided them personally through everything they needed in the city we were visiting, seamlessly delegating guidance to our local guide without a hiccup. A week after the trip, many of us decided to stay touch with each other. Summary: an unusually fun and meaningful trip.

Check Republic vacation 2024! Our tour guide *Personal details removed by Feefo* was extremely professional and one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. very knowledgeable and focused on the days activities and treated everyone like she knew each of us personally.

My wife and I have been celebrating our wedding anniversary’s in Europe for the past 15 years and this was the first time we used Trafalgar.

I’d Do It All Over Again! Great travel company. *Personal information removed by Feefo* was Great travel director. The itinerary is well thought of, adequately spaced and enough to explore each destination. All hotels are great, with good breakfast selections, and easily accesible to public transportation. I got my money’s worth, in my own opinion.
