Highlights of Bohemia Reviews

We had previously travelled with Trafalgar and were a bit worried that Costsaver wouldn't be as good. Our worries were groundless. This was basically a Trafalgar tour but staying in a lower standard of accommodation (mostly Ibis). The tour itself was exceptional. The itinerary, although a bit hectic was perfect. Our tour director Jeff was a bundle of ...read more energy who was determined to give everyone the best holiday they have ever had. There were so many highlights but my personal favourite would be cruising down the Danube at night past the beautiful Hungarian Parliament building in Budapest.

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip - the tour guide was friendly, funny and very professional. The trip was as advertised and good value for money. I would like to see some of the extras included into the itinerary. I would definitely travel with Costsaver again and recommend it to others.

Overall the tour was excellent value for money, accommodation was very good, a complaint would be the location of hotel in East Berlin, should be closer to Berlin. We travelled almost 4,000 kilometres, so some days were long days spent on the coach.

He made a video of the hightlights of our tour which was a small donation which is fantastic for us to keep and enjoy. The coach driver Christian was did a fantastic job, spoke several languages and worked extremely hard with his daily duties.

All went extremely well and it was our first time with Costsaver instead of the more expensive Trafalgar tour, but we found there is only a small difference in the tours so will be opting for Costsaver in the future.

Michelle at Global Journeys was a pleasure to deal with and always answered our emails promptly. The tour was wonderful and we visited many beautiful locations and had a lot of wonderful experiences.

I just got back from the my tour and here are my thoughts. I understand that arrving into Frankfurt is easier because of the airport, but if you could fly into Berlin and start the tour there & finish there you would get more time in Berlin or one of the other lovely cities that we visited. The hotels we stayed at were fine. I didn't mind them being ...read more a little out of town, as it gave me more of a chance to explore and get some exercise! The breakfasts included were great, as well as some of the dinners. Probaby spent a little too much time in the small towns enroute to the bigger ones. Having said that some of the smaller towns we stopped at e.g Brun, were hidden treasures. The optional tours available were a great mix. I didn't do many of them, but the ones I did do were good. Overall the tour was good value for money and gave me enough flexibility to do my own exploring.
