I asked if we were going to have a tour of this beautiful church. He never mentioned it again.Ī major landmark and tallest building in Reykjavik is the Hallgrimur's Church. His reply was, "I am glad you were able to get back to our group." No apology. I told our tour director that I was left behind at the museum stop. I tipped that bus driver $40.00, as I was so relieved to be back with my Collette tour. I was fortunate that another bus driver drove me to the next tour spot, and then he had to return to the museum where I was left behind to get his tour group. Guests found the path snow covered and icy and numerous slipped and fell (perhaps that walk should not be offered).īiggest disappointment for me - The tour director must not have counted the people in our group before leaving me at Thingvellir National Park. One trip was walking down a path to meet up with the coach at another end - we didn’t do that seeing how dangerous the path was and thus missed the coach but it returned to the drop off point and picked us up. Not only do I feel this way, but also my husband was struck with the same disappointments. It is felt that the tour manager did a good job but needs to improve communication. Overall, the trip to Iceland was a good experience. We felt (and have experienced) reminders, far more guidance (we’d be left on our own in some places - managers usually remain and mingle with group), etc. We felt there was a lack of communication equally given to ALL guests. Our experience with this tour manager was not at the same level. We have experienced four Collette tours and all were excellent. Northern Lights were a disappointment as we never saw them during our stay. The natural beauty and sites we visited was appreciated. We had changed hour of departure from CT to JFK using a different limousine service and we were extremely pleased with their service. Transportation to/from Bristol Senior Center and driver excellent - timely, friendly, conscientious driver especially from CT to JFK. Hotels and meals and motor coach were all excellent. Unfortunately, this level is not appropriate for individuals who use wheelchairs or walkers.
