How about a review

[tander46]

Well lets see, my daughter and I had so much fun, we loved most of what we saw, we started getting tired of the long explanations at churches and some of the other places, we wanted to look ourselves. all the hotels were nice except for one of them. We did alot of the optional excursions, loved the cruise down the Danube river. The bus riding gets tiring but we stopped alot for potty breaks, passport control stations we're all very quick. Our Tour Leader was great, she was very informative, and all 43 of the people on our tour were nice. Lots of places to shop, do most of your shopping in Prague, Krakow and rothenburg, other places are higher priced.

"all the hotels were nice except for one of them. "
Let me guess . .. . Prague? all in our Cosmos group were fuming mad.
I did most of my shopping in Hungary and Buda-Pest - embroidered tablecloths, dolls as gifts.
I did not read up before this trip and our guides and TD not too enthusiastic (pointing fingers.. . my bad). .
Actually we were exhausted with the record high summer heat and humongous crowds.
I definitely have to retrace this route again in the near future.
Besides the Danube Cruise, what other optional excursions did you participate - Can you describe and rate them.
