The tour was very well planned, but the Vatican was closed due to a special event the day we were there. It was disappointing, but the team offered an alternative walking tour and refunded the entrance fee. Everything else was excellent.

The Paris to Athens tour was awesome, but our flight to Athens got delayed by four hours. It was really annoying, and we arrived late in the evening so we decided to stay one extra night in Athens. But overall everything was good and we stayed at nice hotels.
