So, according to the meeting in Lviv and the bus, there are no negative points (the air conditioner worked). True, the speed limit is 80 km (a license is needed for more) and driving on country roads (to save money and not pay for autobahns), which is why the journey is very long and late for excursions (especially at night Padua instead of evening). The site says that there are no night crossings, and arrival at the hotel at 11.30-1.00 (as a result, they did not have time to rest). There were very long journeys for 10 hours, which is also very tiring. The guide, as it turned out, does not know a single language (neither Italian, nor German, nor English), although on such a trip he should know at least one of the listed ones. During the journey, only 3 thematic films were staged, and they probably forgot about the music. But for some reason they did not forget about American films. And the same music disc was put on all the time, it seems that there was no more (and Italian music and Austrian music are very beautiful, it was not in vain that they stopped by Salzburg). Hotels were normal, with the exception of guests. in Padua (where the bugs ended up). Who cares about the issue of riding a gondola, then in your free time you can do it. Of course, the tour is not bad, but there is very little time in Rome and the 8-hour tour is very difficult (walking + right through the Vatican). If it had been split over two days, it would have been much better. The organization is very lame. On the way back, when the whole group was against stopping by the Czech supermarket, the guide and drivers still stopped by, because you can see their orders. And not enough free time. I would especially like to note the excursion to Pompeii. I had no idea that she would be so attractive. And in general, if you go to so many cities, then you should visit all of them. The level of tours for Kiev firms is higher, but for Lviv ones it is cheaper. So to each his own. If you are interested, write, I will answer in more detail.
