I have gone on 5 Trafalgra trips and now one Cost Saving trip. The difference is the location of hotels in major cities. I will NOT go on any more Cost Saving trips but I will definitely go on Trafalgra trip in the future.

The qualities of Costsaver tours simply don't match those provided by Trafalgar. The low-cost hotels are so off city centers that a lot of precious vacation time is wasted even to just go to the optional excursions. Money may be saved by traveling with Costsaver, time is wasted. I will definitely go back to Trafalgar tours again for my future trips,

Expect hotels to be further away from city center as a cost savings measure. Also, tour group was much larger than other companies I've traveled with.

The trip had too much bus riding but I knew that ahead of time. Unlike prior Trafalgar Cost Saver trips I have previously taken, this one is now approaching more of Cosmo's lower standard. The hotels in Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm were located really far away from downtown. Stockholm's was 55 minutes by public transportation. They changed one hotel on the road to save money. I doubt I will take another Trafalgar Cost Saver trip because of this. But overall, I am satisfied with the value for the cost.

For a cost saver it didn't offer any savings. As the countries visited are too costly to eat out on your own. Dinners, lunch and some breakfasts were on your own cost so this adds significantly to trip cost. Some of the optional tours were worthless and too costly for what you got. This is not my experience in the past using Trafalgar. There were two occasions where the tour scheduled a dinner, limiting drinks and time. One drink is a joke. Previous tours provided unlimited wine. The food selections at these restaurants were of poor quality. There seemed to be a hustle to get thorough each meal and back to the hotel. In the past there was apple time to socialize. I would not recommend this tour to anyone and if Trafalgar operates their tours this way I will seek another operator. The highlights were the bus driver was exceptional.

It is what Trafalgar does not say about this trip that is critical. Scandinavia---think small countries and relatively short distances. Do these convert to easy bus travel and relatively early arrivals at each over night? NO WAY. Every day is in the bus until six o'clock PM and, if served, dinner at 7 pm. The reason is slow highways and many two lane roads. Throw a few ferry crossings in and you end up with long, in time, travel days; way longer than one would first anticipate.

The Trafalgar family is the leader in the tour industry. They take customer service to the next level. If you want to feel appreciated and have the satisfaction of knowing your money is being well spent - look no further. I intentionally seek out tours with the Trafalgar name and will continue to do so in the future.
