Itinerary
We meet our Tour Manager and fellow travellers at London St Pancras, where we join the Eurostar service to Paris. Travelling in style in spacious Standard Premier Class, we're served a light lunch at our seats. Changing trains, we continue by First Class rail to Chambéry. After a short break in this attractive French city, we board a comfortable coach for a beautiful journey through the Alps. Enroute, we enjoy stops to absorb the incredible views of towering, alpine peaks, before arriving in Turin where we spend the night. We have our first dinner together in this handsome Italian city.

GRJ are really well organised and the tour managers are excellent. They often have to improvise and deal with incidents and, in our experience, do so calmly and effectively. The tours can be pretty full on and can sometimes feel tiring but overall, really Good, highly recommended.

Excellent holiday with 2 great tour leaders, the only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the single room in Montecatini Terme hotel, the shower was built for a child and not an adult, the hotel itself was excellent, food and staff were great and would recommend this tour. It would be great if the single room supplement was reduced.
