The tour was well planned. It was fun indeed. However, i was a little disappointed that we didn't tour Paris with the legendary Eiffel Tower. I think it should be included dince the Tour advert stated France as part of the tour and who tour..s France without visiting Eiffel Tower?Read full review
Such a great tour with a great tour guide Geno.
This tour cover lots of famous sight seeing places.
It is pretty good for someone they are first time in Paris and Italy.
Hotels are good as well.
Our recent 12-day Europe Escape Tour was amazing! Everyone inthe group had a great time! This compensated the trouble and hazzle I experienced with Tours4fun. My family had been stressed due to last minute information ab out baggage allowan..ce and all other details relevant for the tour. I suggest you guys have to shape up. I had a prior bad experience with Tours4fun when we went to Saporro. It cancelled our tour on the last minute. Anyways, i would liketo commend our great tour leader Fiilip fir the wonderfultout and of course our coach captain Joshy for bring very helpful and driving us safely to each and every destination.Read full review

Thanks much to the tour director, for making the tour worth what we spent for. We enjoyed so much and learned a lot more. She is strict and frank. But that helped discipline the whole group. Hence there had been no time wasted. We also felt.. the concern in every way.The places we went to are wonderful.Read full review

Daniel was a funny, energetic, professional tour manager. He could speak very good English and knew how to arrange breaks on the clock that were easy for people to remember and return to the bus on time. He also knew this tour route very we..ll. Sometimes he provided directions for Fred, the driver, who was a good, safe driver himself. We liked the motor coach that was newer than most tours we've been on. The 2-door access was a smart way to un/load passengers. Most hotel accommodation was good except for one or two hotels in Italy, but not too bad considering the budget tour price. We enjoyed the tour itinerary as listed. Although we didn't go to Avignon on the last day, everyone was tired and it's not a big deal. We just didn’t like the black sauce spaghetti meal in Venice. It was very bad and simply a rip-off for €20/pp. Overall, we enjoyed the tour and continue booking tours with tours4fun due to their good customer service and competitive prices. They also relayed our requests to the local tour operators for accommodation where it deemed necessary. Thank you.Read full review
It was both of our first trips to Europe and it was WONDERFUL! Our tour guide,Cherry,was fantastic & our group got along so well. We made friends and always had a blast. It's a wonderful mix of guided tours & free time.
Tour director was fantastic and made the trip informative, fun and memorable. She was fun to be with and funny. We had a lot of laughs. She made the trip be as successful and anyone could expect.
Here's a summary of our thoughts (my wife and I) for this 5 day tour:
Hotels were average to good, as we didn't upgrade...no issues with location or quality
Food...breakfast had most of the usual things in buffet style, but eating late me..ant some things were gone already
Group was LARGE due to HIGH season...50+ people. This was an english speaking tour. We moved at a good pace throughout the day and surprisingly didn't have to wait too often.
Group Leader...was Alberto. He did a good job in communications to us. My wife and I stayed close to him when we didn't have mics on at the sites. You can tell he's done this countless times and has patience with virtually everyone
Transportation...we came in by train and had no option but to take a 30 euro taxi. Yet airline flyers got picked up...not sure if that's fair.
Sites...were excellent. St. Peters Cathedral...if you want to go inside, you need to purchase the special tickets, as "going there" is not the same as "going inside".
CONS: smokers were everywhere...in our large group, all over every site, there is no escaping it. We are allergic to it, and I had not been to Italy since '83. So, we had real trouble dealing with it...and now we know better; the group was too large and they should limit the size, even during high season...maybe 25-30 at the most; We are very fit athletes and can handle the 15K-20K steps we did most days on the walks and tours, but many just got too tired...so be warned when it is warm you will tire out.
PROS...history and buildings were spectacular, as expected. Alberto was really seasoned and handled the group well. Bus was comfortable (but didn't allow us to use the toilet) and the stops between cities was a nice touch
SUMMARY...we would not do such a large group again; we would try to find a tour that didn't allow smokers too; MAINLY...go outside the busiest month (August) as the sites in Italy are PACKED with tourists.Read full review
