Good but not enough

On the May holidays we went on a tour of Switzerland. In general, I liked everything. The ratio "price-quality" is absolute. The departure was from St. Petersburg, at night. Sleeping on the bus is not very comfortable, but you can get used to it. It’s a pity they didn’t warn that it’s better to take inflatable pillows under your head with you. Some have done so. We, of course, envied them. Pillows were missing. But survived!!! In the morning the border, then we eat through Lithuania. In the afternoon we arrived in Klaipeda, then the excursion. Local guide - Natalia is just super! What is called from "..." I made a candy, because there is almost nothing to see in Klaipeda. Further on the ferry and sailed for 20 hours to Germany. The office advised us to take cabins, and we did not regret it. They felt sorry for those who did not listen to the advice of managers. Because there were no free cabins on the ferry, and those who didn’t buy cabins walked around the ferry for 20 hours or sat in their chairs.

The next evening we were in Germany, dropped by Hamburg (for a short time) and went to Switzerland.

Night move. Morning in Switzerland. From the very beginning, an additional program is the Rhine Falls. A couple of people who did not want to go there were left in the nearest town (I don’t remember the name) and went to see this attraction. Some tourists were indignant: where is the excursion to the waterfall. What tour??? It was clearly written in the program: TRIP. This is just an inspection, we walked, took pictures and further. And then Zurich. Here is the most interesting and long time. All day We did everything. Excursion, watch museum (also extra charge), bought chocolate and Swiss cheese, some even managed to buy Swiss watches for almost 100 euros somewhere: of course, not "brands" but Swiss ones.

Then we went to the hotel, near Geneva, as it is written in the program. In fact, a hotel in France, it is nearby, although at first we were scared that we still don’t know where we’ll have to go. No from Geneva to the hotel, i.e. less than 10 km to France.

Great excursion the next day: this is Geneva and the Swiss Riviera. The day is not stressful at all, everything is easy and beautiful. How we were then envied by those who did not go to the Riviera. You can't take such cool photos in all of Switzerland, as they do there. Absolutely magnificent views of Lake Geneva, and Montreux is a dream city, small, but what views of the mountains and the lake are there !!!

Then we started on our way back. The next day is pretty busy. Lucerne, Bern and passing through the Interlaken region. It is also very beautiful there.

Here it would be 1 more day to add and not a tour, but sweetie !!!

Well, then by night moving back to Germany. In the morning in Kiel, there is little time there, you can not wait for shops. Then back to the ship and to Klaipeda. After arrival, a transit day with a stop in Riga for an excursion. and then home.

I read negative reviews: as if about another company. Or just such sites - a place where gratitude does not reach, because here it is necessary to criticize.

I felt comfortable on this tour, but there were people in our group who were “itching” all the way, that everything did not suit them.

It is necessary to read the program carefully, and do not expect luxury comfort from the economy tour

I have no complaints, the tour went well!
