Loved the tour and really enjoyed just packing our bags and leaving all the work to Nagel.  My husband has Parkinson’s so have found travelling burdensome.  Nagel took all the worry away and filled it with fun.

Thank you once again for a very well put together tour.

With COVID I greatly appreciated the extra precautions Nagel put in place.  I felt very safe going and trying it out before booking any other trips.  I love the small group.  Made us spread more which is a bonus to me.  Being so comfortable about the safety you have taken I booked Christmas in Victoria while I was on this tour in Kelowna.
