    Very good in many aspects but this tour had 18 travellers plus the driver and tour guide so way too crowded to be comfortable in the bus. Some hotels were very good and some average as were the provided meals. The dinner in Beaune was way below par, very disappointing. Our tour guide, Nathalie was excellent and went above and beyond her duties.

    Our tour leader Natalie just made this trip. Her knowledge and enthusiasm were fantastic. Some of the meals in the itinerary were not of a standard or value of or this tour.

    This tour was more than we could ever have expected. Well organized and we learned so much about the history of France. We give most of the credit to success of tour to our tour guide Nathalie Verhulst as she was always there with answers, suggestions for restaurants and just everything else including more laughs than we could ever have expected. We have read other reviews of Blue Roads tours that were not terribly flattering and feel it must be due to the tour guide selected by the company. When we were in Annecy we asked her why we couldn't have stayed there instead of Chambéry. She said she had put that suggestion forward to the company a while back and then one of our group informed us that it was now listed as the overnight spot on the 2025 tour. Also we visited a bakery and we felt that could be replaced with something else and it would appear in 2025 than you have done that. Apparently Blue Roads listens and evaluates suggestions put forward. We are contemplating a tour in Portugal in 2025 and Blue Roads is on our list, however, there were some not very nice things said about that tour. Lodgings, food and the bus are also very important to your customers and we know you must be always looking at those things to try to make them the best for your customers.
