We had a wonderful experience on the Eastern European tour. Michael and Peter shepherded us thru all the transportation challenges and got us all where we needed to be. There was so much to see on just a few days . It was great to witness cultures, architecture and history that is centuries old. We had great guides but at times it was hard to hear and understand the guide because of noise and strong accents. Audio assist was provided later that was a great help. The hotels were fabulous 5 star lodging . The food was mostly really good with the exception of wienersnitzel. Not my favorite.

I had a fantastic time and our group was awesome. Michael at Defined Destinations pays attention to details and provides local guides that enhances the experiences. He welcomes all customers with sincere appreciation. The Budapest, Vienna, Prague was my 5th European trip with Defined Destinations and I have already booked a 6th in 2025.

This was the first time traveling with a group and overall, it was a pleasant experience. Miguel, our guide for the week, was amazing. He was very proud of his country and it showed in all or the activities we were able to do. I was also very appreciative of the last minute changes that were made during the trip and the ability to offer us new experiences in different places.

My first time on an organized tour. Had a wonderful time, very well organized, tour guide very knowledgeable, all were very helpful and would do it again if I have an opportunity.

Great group. Lots of regulars, I think first timers had easy time fitting in! First time I went was 25 people, second time was 35 and this time was 40 plus. I prefer smaller group, but it does work fine.
