“This was my first international trip and it was amazing! The sights of London and Paris did not disappoint. The tour manager was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The only negative was the transportation company used in London which was late all 3 days causing us to miss the ceremony at the Tower of London. They should not be used for any future tours.
