Although our visit to the Europe countries was during Summer season, most of the hotel accommodation were without air-conditioning especially when the temperature hit above 40 degrees in Paris. This made our stay uncomfortable and brought ..us an unforgettable bad memory.Read full review

Left in Paris yet I was at the pick up location as indicated by tours4fun. Had to take a taxi to catch the bus on its first stop, 220Euros paid for a reported fault entirely on tours4fun. All other passengers who booked from other agents ha..d a different pick up location details:Place d'Italie in front of Mac Donald. This was not the case for me. When reported to the support they just gave me confusing information to cover themselves, like they advise their customers to arrive 10minutes earlier, yet it is not mention anywhere. Was very frustrated, it killed my week. Tours4stressRead full review
Overall, a very good experience. Value for money, good itinerary, fair hotels and fun and caring guides (except for one - Brandon who in my opinion is very cynical and almost condescending).
Brandon was our guide from Frankfurt to Paris ..on July 22-24. He seemed to be always in a hurry and not care. He came across as if he did not want to be there. When I asked him a question, he would be in a hurry and say that's a personal question and would not entertain it at that time. But the question was about our intention of not going with the bus tour at night after the scheduled itinerary because we're going to a friends home for dinner in Amsterdam. He believed this was not a "business" question so he wouldn't answer it then for at that time he was only entertaining business questions. It's not that fact that he's prioritising questions but his way of speaking, it was abrupt and as said earlier, almost condescending. When I asked where was the voted best “French Fries” in Amsterdam - he answered abruptly and curtly, it’s not French fries, we are not in France. Very unfriendly and not “guide -like”.
Brandon was an unpleasant experience considering just the day before we had Lex who was our guide from Zurich to Frankfurt on July 21-22. Lex was excellent, nice, helpful and funny! We had fun just being in the bus for hours (there was an accident in the highway from Titisee to Frankfurt and we were stuck in the highway for 2 hours) because he made sure we were comfortable, informed and yes, even entertained.
Mickey our guide in Paris from July 24-26 was also great. Mickey was helpful, informative and answered all our questions that we had. She made sure we were taken cared of and when the Paris Hotel did not have airconditioning in the middle of the heatwave, she was even able to work with her company Eugogo to treat us to the River Seine Cruise for free to lift our spirits up. This act which may be considered by many as not enough to compensate AC issue, was very much appreciated.
Again, we’re happy overall and would recommend this tour.Read full review
Everything was good, except the Chinese Dragon restaurant was really nasty. The restaurant was completely dirty. I saw dirty silverware, food/drink containers, tables, etc...I was very disappointed about this restaurant. Also, we missed to ..see the Nothre Dam Church in Montreal because our schedule to see it after dinner in the evening, the church already closed.Read full review
The tour as such was good.. however the tour guide was biased towards Asian tourists. They only stopped at Asian restaurants. Our group did not enjoy Asian food, but did not get any option as there was no other restaurants in the vicinity.
..
On the other hand, our group had seniors travelling and would not go for many attractions as they required a lot of walking around. The guide was not appreciative of the fact that the members were old... Infact when we declined to take the attraction tickets from the guide they said " if you can't walk then why have you come for this tour". ... That is very rude and disrespectful.
Other than that the format itself was decent. The driver was great.Read full review
Overall it was a great tour! Lex was a great tour guide! Extremely knowledgeable and openly shared a lot of information with us.
The trip was the most economical way for our family of 7 to see eastern Europe. By then end, everyone was ha..ppy with the trip and learned the places they want to see again and which places they had seen enough of.
The biggest issue i had was, when we went to several of the cities we were simply dropped off in the middle of a shopping center/plaza and told to meet the bus in 2-3 hours. To me, it would have been better drive us around the city, show us the major attractions, have a photo stop or 2, and then give us 60 -90mins of free time for shopping and food.
Some the hotels lacked what i would consider essentials, like a hot water kettle, coffee cups etc. Additionally, most of the hotels were well outside the city center and had only fast food diner dinner options nearby.
None of these things were trip breakers for us, we made do and adjusted as needed.Read full review
Hotel di Montreal troppo distante dal centro. 14 cad per giorno e per persona come mancia obbligatoria sono eccessivi e ingiustificati. No wifi sul bus. Tutto bene per il resto.
1)Your USA Office should have given me invoice number as soon as I paid them here. This was needed by your London office as confirmation of payment. This was not provided to me by your USA office. Although your London office figured out th..at I did make payment, initially they told me that it was my responsibility to talk to USA and get invoice number. NOT EVERYONE CARRIES MOBILE PHONE WITH INTERNATIONAL SERVICE. IT WAS UPSETTING TO START WITH.
2)Your tour GUIDE was VERY rude and was treating passengers as children. EVERYONE and I REPEAT EVERYONE was having heated arguments with him at Eiffel Tower site. He showed us where to assemble after sightseeing and he expected us to come back at a different place. He was after all paid because of tourists like us. And he should remember that.Read full review

Tours4Fun is merely a travel agent and very bad in customer service so give 0 stars to Tours4Fun but the actual company star tours UK is really an extra ordinary company to travel Europe. I must comment about our Tour Manager Mr. Neeraj Sha..rma, who was a very authentic, reliable, professional, perfectionist and noble person. I am quite convinced that my tour to Europe may not be this level successfully without him. Even I learned a lot in my personal life as well from his etiquettes and professionalism. Thanks Neeraj and thanks to Star Tours.Read full review

Tour itinerary was good but late check ins to hotels At 9. To 9.30 way to late. Our tour leader Tony was excellent and Emanuel also good . Hotels started off very good but last two in Rome and Venice were old and very ordinary
Unclear and unexpected charges. Misleading price. The tips are mandatory and charged upfront cash when you get into the bus.
The hotel was nice and tour guide Peggy knowledgeable and professional. I wish the company was more clear about the.. real price so it wouldn't make me feel awkward in front of my family. Disappointed with Tours4 fun customer service, never delivered a solution.Read full review
