This tour was a dream come true! Standing in front of the Sagrada Familia brought tears to my eyes—the way the light dances through the stained glass is indescribable. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, explaining the history of Avignon with such passion. The wine tasting in Bordeaux was the perfect sophisticated ending. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to see the soul of Europe.

A whirlwind journey through beautiful landscapes! The drive through the Pyrenees to Andorra was breathtaking, with snow-capped peaks all around. The hotels were comfortable and clean. My only wish was to have a bit more time in Arles to wander the streets Van Gogh painted, but the itinerary is very packed. Good value for money.
