A note from Gery, the tour host!
Having been a tour guide, I knew what traveling with a group meant, and for almost four decades, I enjoyed setting up and guiding tours with a special focus. Then came the time to pass on the baton to the next generation, and on a personal level, to move back to Europe.  As I still love traveling and working together with my “old company”, I now take the opportunity to show travelers special places in Europe in the course of some tours, which are set up to be a little different than the standard “fare”.
