Tour guide was excellent. Hotel first class. Would have preferred more evening meals provided. I love to explore local but on first night in a place a meal in would have been better

Although I enjoyed the trip I have reached the conclusion that I am now too old to handle luggage on and off trains on a regular basis, also some of the train journeys were too long, i.e. St Pancras to Berlin where the evening meal was served after 10 pm, which was far too late for me and Mrs Esslemont to eat. I should add that the tour manager was very good.

Quite a fast pace holiday but made very enjoyable by the tour manager who made sure everything ran smoothly. Some very moving experiences especially the visit to Auschwitz and Shidler's factory.

Well organized tour with excellent tour manager. Hotels were of good quality with good breakfast and dinner. Hotel in Krakow was rather long distance from the town center. Local guides were generally good although some gave too much historical information. I had an interesting time and learnt much about Poland. Perhaps publicity should warn future tour members there is a lot of walking?
