Ultimate European plus Egypt 16 countries \ 45 days
29 Apr 2012 - 12 Jun 2012 \ I just finished the Ultimate European tour with the Egypt option. Booking this trip was the best decision I have made in my life. Our driver Brian and manager Matty Lawless were probably the best on the Europe circuit and they helped make our trip. The others in the tour were fantastic and we have left as not just friends but as family :) Great value for money, free WIFI at most places you stay, good food and great advice on what to see or do. You can't really ask for more. The optionals were so much fun!!! Do everything even if it scares you!!! Paragliding in Austria was my favourite thing and Im terrified of heights!! Would do this again in a heartbeat :)
