Overall I had a great experience on the trip. I enjoyed the sequence of countries and the amount of time spent in each. The CEO did an excellent job and I liked that we had a lot of free time to explore mixed with options for group activities and meals.

I really enjoyed this tour. It covered a lot of ground in 2 weeks. The free time really allowed me to personalize the tour to my interests.
07/14/2024
This is a good entry point into Eastern European history. There are some very heavy subjects and tours (Auchwitz, etc) but very important to take in. The local guides in Krakow and Prague were amazing, and they should be used as much as possible.
07/14/2024
Glad I did it
07/13/2024

My tour of Southeastern Europe was nothing short of amazing! I enjoyed all of the historic places that we visited and I loved learning about the places that I have always heard and read about in history books.

It was a trip full of wonder and new eye opening experiences! The best part is that I am bringing those experiences back to my classroom through photographs, videos, and realia. This journey will help me be a better person as well as a better educator.
