What travelers are saying

"Yossef, our trip leader, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave a very personal service. All the hotels were comfortable. What made some of them was their settings. We loved Morocco and the trip has given us the taste for more of this wonderful country. It was a great way to see this diverse country and give us an idea of people's lives as well as seeing the tourist highlights."

What travelers are saying

"Ci siamo affidati a Soleto Travel per un tour di Malta personalizzato e ritagliato su misura per noi. Eravamo in crociera in MSC. Abbiamo trovato ad attenderci al porto Dennis, espertissima guida di Malta anche se definirlo così è estremamente riduttivo. Ci ha meravigliosamente accompagnato con un minivan con autista a Marsaxlokk, alla grotta Azzurra, ai siti megalitici di Hagar Qim e Mnajdra, infine Medina. Ci ha trasmesso con passione l'essenza dell'anima di Malta, millenni di cultura sotto un sole rovente e all'ombra delle colorate bouganville fucsia. Un paesaggio senza tempo in cui predominano il colore giallo e il profumo della storia di diverse culture e civiltà che si sono succedute. Un'esperienza indimenticabile. Grazie di cuore Dennis e grazie Omar di Soleto Travel!"

What travelers are saying

"Sad to see a once good tour company stumble and fall into mediocrity. That’s Tauck post-Covid. My May 2023 tour of Normandy, Brittany and the Loire Valley was done on the cheap by Tauck, yet cost me thousands of dollars extra as a solo traveler on a special small-group tour.   5-star hotels switched to 3 and 4 (without any compensation or explanation)… many more meals “on your own”… lots of “self-guided” tours of museums and chateaux and castles we knew nothing about… airline quality “rubber chicken” dinners, not in hotel restaurants, but in sad and isolated business convention spaces… poorly-trained newer Tour Directors (like the one on this tour) with limited experience traveling outside her tiny Canadian village or dealing with people from diverse backgrounds. She even confessed that this was a second gig job that took her away from her own business back home! You get what Tauck pays for, but unfortunately, not what YOU pay for.   Speaking to a “Guest Relations” agent was comically pointless. She tried to make everything my fault, which I now understand is par for the course with the “new” post-Covid Tauck. Please reconsider spending huge amounts of your hard-earned money on a tour company that has lost its way and no longer delivers."
