Hello. We are Janice and Stan Seys. The My Way Alpine Europe is our nineteenth Rick Steves' tour. You can find out more about this tour on Rick Steves' Website. We love the philosophy and organization of Rick's tours. His groups are small at around 25 tour members. This makes it possible to stay in the smaller locally owned hotels and also get into the small locally owned restaurants that serve the local specialties. We really like these aspects of Rick's tours. We also like the mix of guided time with the expert local tour guides and the free time to explore options on our own. Rick also uses big buses with a capacity of about 50 people. This gives you a chance to spread out and relax. Everyone can have a window seat!
This is, however, our first "My Way" tour. The "My Way" tours differ from the regular tours in that they only provide the hotels and transportation. Instead of a "Guide", they provide a "Tour Manager". Our Tour Manager was Martin Minich. Martin was very helpful during the tour giving us suggestions on what to do and helping us get tickets to sites that we didn't get in advance. He was available every morning during breadfast and had "office hours" every evening to help us out with anything and everything.
Since airfare is not inexpensive, we booked another tour (Best of Switzerland in 12 days) prior to this tour. That was our eighteenth tour. To see our scrapbook for this tour, go to Switzerland.
Ok, lets get going with our "My Way Alpine Europe in 12 Days" tour. You can click on the drop down menu above left or any of the cities below. Our tour begins in Salzburg.
