5.00I was very skeptical about doing a tour like this that I stumbled upon on Trip Advisor. It was the BEST decision I could have made. Do it!!! Our tour guide, Luke, was nothing short of amazing and our driver, René, was fantastic. We got very lucky to travel with a bus full of incredible people from all over the world. It was a trip I will remember and cherish for a lifetime.
Lots to see

5.00Luke our tour leader was very informative about the landscape the history and attractions we saw along the journey. There is a lot of time on the coach due to the size of the country and all the wonderful things you see. The coach journey is broken up with rest stops at cute mountain villages, along with the beautiful glacier and lakes that are the reason for going on this trip!
