Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

This travel company paid great attention to detail both in planning the trip & in the execution. Documentation & follow-up throughout the trip was exceptional. The "book" had everything we could have possibly needed and the daily itinerary & restaurant documents were easily downloadable on our phones. All of the ladies at our travel agency were just great with which to work.
Tour/suggested activity selections offered varied and unique experiences. All of the local/day guides were great resources for information on the "tour de jour" putting what we were looking at in context with the appropriate time period and also providing current relevance.
Our time in Germany & Austria varied from the historic & rustic Bavarian region to the lush Rhine River Valley to the urban center of Berlin. Each was their own unique experience with churches, castles & palaces.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

Our driver & guide for 10 of the 17 days of our tour was exceptional. He quickly learned the dynamics of our group & subtly adjusted to accommodate everyone's interests & abilities. He provided unique incites & perspectives into the areas we toured from his personal experience sharing exceptional views that wouldn't have been possible from a large tour group. Our guide became like a member of the group & when we parted to continue the trip, we felt we had to say goodbye to a friend with whom we had shared an unforgettable experience.
Each of the local/day guides, especially in Berlin, gave a special perspective of their experience during more recent events like the Cold War & the fall of the Berlin Wall. It reminded us that some of these historic events happened not that long ago. It personalized the events of which we have only read.
It has to be said... Oktoberfest was AWESOME! Great tent location, rock star seating, great beer, great music & lots of fun. Thank you travel team!!!

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

It would have been nice to have had a little less rain, but changing the time of year would have precluded attending Oktoberfest. That experience was not one to be missed.
