Many thanks to Dora who, after my initial fears about food and toilets as I recuperated from an abdominal operation, gave me a good picture of how these things are 'on the ground' so that I could optimistically pay for this trip of a lifetime. I can honestly say that my trip was fantastic. Our guide, Mimir, was superb: really knowledgeable, very responsible and professional, giving us wonderful little 'off the beaten track' experiences that surely many tourists would miss, a safe and excellent driver. The hotels were all fantastic – even the smallest fishing village guesthouse was clean and comfortable and quiet (with a memorable excellent freshly cooked dinner served in Bakki!).

We went on Fabulous Scandinavia and Helsinki tour last spring with a group of friends. It was a very very exciting trip! We enjoyed the way it was organized, the choices of the hotels and sightseeing excursions. We were treated with a huge variety of scenery and history, and a plenty of opportunities for a fun time . Some of the places in the itinerary were beyond beautiful. – George Monty -

We have chosen a tour Polish and Baltic Jewels as it covered main cities in Poland and nearly all of the Baltic countries. My husband and I are interested in the history of these countries and wanted personally experience them and were not disappointed. The tour was very well organized, the itinerary well chosen. The service was excellent everywhere. We loved the architecture of the cities and the atmosphere of the old towns. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly . The last but not the least, we brought home a few very nice and original souvenirs from Estonia, Lithuania and Poland. This was a trip to be long remembered. – Paulina and Joe -

The guides, drivers, hotels and general organization were great. I especially have to mention Maria (Marsha) Ganina (St Petersburg) who was the best guide I have ever had on a tour – and as you know, I have travelled extensively. She was even able to find and return my umbrella to me after I left it in the left-luggage store at the Hermitage! Wonderful person and extraordinarily well-versed in the history of St P's and Russia in general. She became a friend to all of us in a professional manner.
