I had a great time. Jon was a great guide. I didn’t think the food was very good on the boat cruise though. I paid extra for a single rm and the rm had 3 twin beds which I would have preferred a comfortable chair or loveseat to sit on.
It was an interesting mix of people and experiences. Plans were clear, organized and communicated in a timely manner. We had many group experiences with time to make our own plans.
This trip was so much better than I imagined it could be! The attention to detail and the contacts Jon has developed over the years are very evident on this tour. He understands that travelers like to experience new and different things with a group but also that they have the flexibility to explore on their own. Jon was very friendly and helpful with suggestions of restaurants and stores to visit in Prague. Our local tour guides were fantastic and open and friendly. Jill and Julianna made the trip so much fun! The classes were a great way for us all to learn a new skill and for us to really get to know Jill and Julianna on a personal level. For those worried about traveling alone, please don't! I traveled alone and had no problems making friends. There is something so special about sharing time with others of like mind. Our group was a diverse group with varying levels of ability who bonded in a special way! When you all share the love of making jewelry and beading it brings such joy to all those around. This trip made me excited again about beading!! I plan to go on another one of Jons tours in the future.
