Bogdan was an amazing guide and we really enjoyed being with him!

Best of Greece Tour with Travel Talk
Great intro to a few fun and lively Greek islands as well as Athens for a first timer. We enjoyed our trip very much and had guide Constantina looking after our group with interesting knowledge and facts about Greece. She was very helpful and reliable and made us feel at ease and comfortable along the way. A great support and guide on a fun and fascinating trip. Recommend 😎😊🙌

I had an amazing experience with my tour of Romania. I came to this tour after having lived in Romania so I didn’t have high hopes for it exceeding my previous adventure. Although I wasn’t expecting the phenomenal experience and personal recommendations/insights from Bogdan, our tour guide. He connected us with the heart and soul of Romania an unbelievable journey even for this globe trotter.

We had a wonderful tour through Central Europe with our guide Tina. She was so helpful, friendly and fun! The sights we saw were incredible and covered everything we wanted to do and more along the way. Then we linked a Greece tour as well and our new guide Spyro showed us the best side of all islands we stopped at, Ios was my favourite. Travel Talk Tours were great to deal with, the tours themselves were also really good, inclusive and covered all the main hot spots. Would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to travel!

We had a wonderful tour guide in Bogdan. His knowledge of the region was amazing and the interest was perfect.

Excellent Tour guide, Bogdan, very knowledgeable and passionate about everything Romanian. No day felt rushed or compacted. It was an excellent tour making me want to visit again

11 Days Through Central Europe – TravelTalk

When I first saw that this tour covered 11 days and several countries and capitals, my first thought was: How are we going to manage all of that? 😅

Well, it actually went very smoothly, thanks in large part to our awesome tour leader, Marios, and our highly skilled driver, Georges.

This tour is a great opportunity to discover the main capitals of Central Europe. The pace can be quite intense at times, but overall, the schedule was well organised. You get to spend around one full day and one evening in each major city, along with 2–3 hour stops in smaller cities such as Dresden and Bratislava.

I did have a slightly stressful experience at the very beginning of the trip, when the hotel staff in Berlin couldn't initially find my reservation. Fortunately, the issue was resolved quickly after a call to TravelTalk Headquarters, with the help of our tour leader Marios.

We were also lucky to have a relatively small group — only 19 people on a 56-seat bus — which made the experience more comfortable. The group dynamic was generally very good, although we did have to deal with a few situations where people were late in the mornings.

A few points that could be improved

My main concern with the tour was the location of some of the hotels.

Munich: The hotel itself was decent, but for future tours, I would strongly suggest choosing a location closer to the city centre and, ideally, closer to a subway station. This would make it much easier for travellers to explore the city during their free time.

Vienna: This was the hotel location I was least comfortable with. The subway line ran directly in front of the hotel windows, and I did not find the surrounding area particularly pleasant at night. I would recommend choosing a hotel in a better area and closer to a convenient subway station for future tours.

One other point worth mentioning is that I believe the tour leader and driver should have their breakfast included as part of the tour. From what I noticed, they had to pay extra themselves to have breakfast in the morning, which doesn't seem ideal given the early starts and the important role they play throughout the tour.

Overall, this was my third tour with TravelTalk, and I would definitely recommend this Central Europe tour to anyone interested in discovering the region. Despite the intense pace, it is a great way to see several major European cities in a relatively short amount of time.

A big thank you to Marios and Georges for helping make the journey such a smooth and enjoyable experience! 👏

The tour far exceeded expectations. Great value for the money. Credit goes to the tour guide and the magnificent places we visited. My only constructive advice would be to include a few more two-night stays - the speed of the tour was doable but having time to soak more of the atmosphere would have made the tour near perfect.

Lastly, the bus driver must be commended for keeping us safe through such winding road trips and the cleanliness of the bus.

Terrific experience!

My travel experience was wonderful.

Bogdon, the guide, was very attentive, helpful, fun to be with, and exceptionally interesting.

He took us on un-planned walks and, since he has lived through the political upheaval, he is a first class local source.

He kept us informed about our expectations and re-arranged some of our tour to ensure that we got the most of everything available AND EVEN MORE!

I would, unhesitantly, recommend him for my closest friends.

First and foremost, we were extremely fortunate to have as our guide Bogdan through Romania and Bulgaria for a total of seven days. My wife and I were not at all familiar with the history and architecture of this region. Bogdan brought the tumultuous and momentous events of the this region’s past to life with his passion for his country and encyclopedic knowledge of the subject.
Additionally, he was the consummate professional, and we always felt well cared for and comfortable during our trip.
He went out of his way to accommodate our wishes.
While the hotels and transportation were excellent, if not luxurious, Bogdan was the cherry on top of cake.

Bogdan 200%, he is a walking library, extremely knowledgeable. Great personality, makes you feel like family, like you are home! I had to say a quick goodbye because I couldn't stop crying having to go apart to another guide. I travel every 2 months, used Gate 1, Exxotica, many others, nobody has a guide like Bogdan. I hope you are paying him good money because he makes your company look really good. His name will be all over my media, he is the BEST!!

What an awesome tour of Central Europe, made more special by our tour guide who went above and beyond his call of duty and made sure that we are superbly taken care of every step of the way. He dotted on us, and his name is Marios he looks like a Greek God on our beck and call and some whining too. Thank you to George for keeping us safe with his magnificent driving skills.

Firstly, communication between passengers with Travel Talk is quite poor.
They do not explain to you, that when you are purchashing a 20 day package tour e.g. like 'Wonders of Central Europe & the Balkans,' that your tour will have 2 legs 'Central Europe' and what feels like a totally new tour 'the balkans' with people jumping on and off your tour. That makes the tour feel disjointed and sadly just when you have bonded with your first group, and need to move on, the second group you are joining, have already been travelling together so then you are the outsider. The dynamics of each group is different because they mish mash different tours together. Not sure who the organiser is, but they need to do a course in logical organisation.
They are the main negative aspects of the tour. Also the fact that you are not given any info re domestic flight until the nite before is very disconcerting!
Probably could think of a few more negative apects but enough for now!
You get a guide in almost every city which means tipping....a lot of tipping. Luckily, the guides ranged from good to excellent/exceptional! You be the judge!
So be aware, esp if you come from a culture which is not used to tipping!
On the positive side, Mario our first Tour leader and George the driver were excellent in their respective roles and went out of their way for the passengers! Always helpful, professional and friendly.
An e.g of some of the things Mario had to do, which should have been unnecessary when the passenger is a middle aged adult, one of the passengers got himself lost for about an hour and Mario had to go looking everywhere for him, which was very difficult considering the passenger had a phone with no data. They are a formidable team! Well done, Mario & George!

Great Tour leader Aykut, who certainly knows his stuff and wonderful driving by Oral. Thank you for an amazing experience discovering Turkey

Fabulous tour, loved Romania and our guide Crina was superb, very knowledgeable and engaging. Would recommend this trip

Fantastic tour! So well organised. Lovely hotels and locations, great variety of places to see and things to do. Crina our guide was so knowledgeable and great company. Would highly recommend!

What a magical experience. Once you get past the organisation it works a treat. Organising things prior to the trip, they were pretty dreadful. I changed my arrival flight time on the day and the team couldn’t be better. It really depends on the person you get in the office.

Abderrahman was a brilliant guide, friendly, personable and knowledgeable. A winning mix. I was travelling alone, however, the group was wonderful. So much life changing memories and fun! I loved my time with the tour. Morocco didn’t disappoint me and Talk Travel was a great choice to explore with.

Great driver as well. Very safe and calm!

Love
Hamish from NZ.

I've taken Balkan tours with Travel Talk Tours. The tours were excellent. We had the best tour director Crina. She always made sure that we are well taken cared of. She always recommended restaurants and joined us for dinner which gave us access to great locations and since she speaks the language, she explains to us what they are, etc. Her sense of humor and how she loves to share the history of the countries visited (especially Romania, her country). I had an open mind, didn't know what to expect on that trip. But I had a great time, I appreciated more the history, culture, and people of the Balkans. And because of that, I will surely be back! Kudos to Travel Talk and to Crina for a job well done! It was a great holiday.

Booking with Travel Talk is very easy. Their website is user-friendly.

I’ve just completed my first 7-day tour in Greece with Travel Talk, and it was an unforgettable experience.
Sofia has been the best tour guide anyone could ask for. She is passionate, knowledgeable, fun, and truly amazing at what she does.
Throughout the trip, Sofia made everyone feel welcomed, appreciated, and special. She consistently went above and beyond for every person on the tour. She even made my birthday extra special, which meant so much to me. If you ever have the chance to have Sofia as your tour guide, consider yourself very lucky!
She made sure there were plenty of optional activities available while also giving everyone enough time to relax and enjoy the experience at their own pace. Her recommendations for the best Greek food were fantastic as well.
Greece has touched my heart deeply, and I will cherish these wonderful memories forever.
I would 1000% recommend Travel Talk Tours, and I can’t wait to book another tour with them in the future! 💙💓😍
