This trip was well planned and executed. Our NEAM coordinator and guide Amanda made everyone feel like they were appreciated. I'll travel with her anytime! It was nice having the private tours by the local museum experts at each stop. Trip was comfortable and the museums were great!

This was a lovely day trip. We've experienced MANY tour directors over the years. Amanda with NEAM is right up there with the best. Enthusiastic, pleasant, organized, concise. Provided just the right mix of information and leadership. And...she stayed with us for the tours and lectures. She even told us when she learned something new - no tour director has ever done that. We'll definitely book with NEAM again!
