Ireland Tour - Ring of Kerry. Excellent guide and really nice agenda with a great mix of activities. And nice hotels!

This was a first class trip developed and executed by top notch people. From the initial sales engagement through to the tour itself it was apparent that Classic Journey's knows what they are doing. Our Prague to Budapest tour was fun, informative, well curated and seamless. A big thank you to Katie, Brian, and Karel at Classic Journeys.

Excellent guide. Scenic hiking locations. With a small group we were able to keep things moving.

We spent a week in Cuba, and although I’ve had high hopes for a trip to Cuba for years, the trip far exceeded my expectations.

The hotels where we stayed (La reserva, Havana and Santa Ana Boutique Hotel, Trinidad) were both beautiful and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Our tour guides (especially Audrey and her assistant Attila) were well-organized and knowledgeable. They planned a variety of activities for us, from snorkeling in the Bay of Pigs to getting a look at the smallest bird in the world to a trek to see the fabulous waterfalls of Centinela del Rio Melodioso. Of course, we had several tours in Havana’s famous vintage cars, including a trip to NostalgiCar where they buy, refurbish and rent vintage cars. Also had several visits to artists’ studios and memorable musical performances.

Could go on and on, but you get the drift. I was so impressed with the trip that I’ve already registered for their East Asia tour in the fall.

Our guide,Julia, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She engaged us as a group and individually with humor and grace.
The sites were great and I loved the leisurely walk. Watching the sheep was addictive!
Everyone on the trip was friendly and we got to know each other along the way.
The accommodations were comfortable and the staff cordial. We ate well—too well I think! We had time to ourselves to explore which was great as well.
Everything was arranged well.
I would definitely suggest this trip to friends. I would suggest that they find a trip lead by Julia, if possible. I’m sure that all of your guides are as terrific as Julia, but I found her to be a special person.

We had a relatively large group (12) with 2 guides - both of whom were personable and well informed. The daily tours were always interesting & the scenery spectacular. The driver was also friendly and did a nice job.
One lodging (the 2nd we visited) had an annoying problem with water pressure but, otherwise, all was well.

The Galapagos Islands are amazing on their own--the animals, the plants--, but what made each day exciting was Alfredo and the local guides. Extremely knowledgeable and eager to share their country with us, their skills and patience with novices made each adventure relaxed and fun. The food was outstanding and the hotels warm and gracious.

This was my first experience with Classic Journeys and they exceeded all my expectations! I learned so much on this trip, all while engaging in fun and entertaining activities (snorkeling, hiking, kayaking...). The accommodations (all waterfront hotels!) and food were all top-notch. I particularly enjoyed the off-the-beaten-path locations where we dined. Our guide, Alfredo, was outstanding in his knowledge of all things Galapagos - as were the local guides who joined us on each of the islands. I snorkeled with sea turtles, sea lions, and sharks; hiked a volcanic rim; and learned so much about how my every action impacts our natural world. I left with some great memories of a really fun time in the most beautiful place I've ever visited, but I also returned with a new sense of connection to nature and a renewed determination to serve as a good steward of our natural world.

Love the schedule, the Tours and the guides in a beautiful area!!
Great group of people with like minded interests and passions. Would clearly recommend and go again!!

Our trip to Cuba was amazing! The trip was very well organized, the accommodations, food and transportation (eight different modes including the classic cars) were all top notch. But best of all were the amazing Cuban people we met! Our local guides were fantastic. We met many people that were leading the development of the private sector; car restoration, hospitality, manufacturing, artists, etc... We experienced wonderful musical performances for our small group! Audrey, our tour guide, was amazing before, during and after our trip! We're so glad we went both for the experience but also that we could support the many entrepreneurs we met. We hope Cuba can overcome the current challenges, especially the energy situation. So glad we took this trip!

The Tuscany and Cinque Terre tour was all that we wanted it to be. We enjoyed seeing so many of Italy's treasures, staying at great hotels, and being helped by a superb guide!

The group leader, Audrey was excellent. The local leaders were also quite good. The home visits of the revolution photographer, coffee plantation, local artists, dinner in Trinidad, etc. made the trip very informative providing a great experience.

Really enjoyed Tuscany but the larger group (17) was disappointing. The hotel in Florence Antica Torre, was not staffed for us, no baggage help and with an elevator not working it was difficult. The restaurants for group dinners in Florence the last night and the first at Villa LaBarone were disappointing. Santa Margarita hotel dinner was very good. The last full day in Cinque Terre was very long and then spoiled by the disappointing late dinner with not good food that ended at midnight. Not a great finish to the trip. Guides Luciano and Alessandro were good.

Overall good
Hotel in Florence unable to service a group of 17. Group dinners were not able to service a group of 20. Last day too much for one day. Started at 6:30 breakfast and ended with dinner at midnight.

Our Classic Journeys Tuscany tour was amazing. Our guide, Emmanuele, was excellent. His knowledge of the area (history, culture, plants, animals) was superb and his personable, honest nature allowed us all to connect with him on a deeper level. The hotel accommodations were beautiful and the daily hikes, local guides for tours, and meals were all so enjoyable. I would recommend Classic Journeys to others and look forward to booking another tour in the future.

Everything about the Tuscany journey was incredible. But most important was the incredible human being that our guide Manuela was. I had a connection with him that truly was tremendous. My wife felt the same way. His knowledge of the history, culture, people, art, food, architecture was incredible. A rare human who made the journey come alive for us. We loved every aspect of the Tuscany walking tour. Thank you. Robert Mulein.

I really enjoyed the walks, the cultural excursions and the group!

Good itinerary; great guides!

Beautiful place. Great tour guide
