We have used Pauwels Travel for our travel needs for several years now & have to say the service is always second to none. Very personal touch & nothing is ever to much hassle! Keep up the good work 5***

Great company! Loved their family oriented feel :)

Just came back from a trip to Cuba booked by Pauwels. They managed to get our room upgraded at no extra cost to us!

We have been using Pauwels Travel since 1992 for all our travel plans. From the smallest of requests such as a hotel in Toronto to a complete guided tour in Europe, they have been knowledgeable and friendly and able to handle every aspect of our holiday. We highly recommend that you let Steve, Sandra and the staff at Pauwels Travel help you plan your next getaway!

You’re invited to a luxurious food and wine experience in Italy

Join chef fraser macfarlane and georgina mitropoulos of quatrefoil restaurant for an exceptional cultural and gastronomic exploration of tuscany and emilia romagna from sept 30 th to october 7 th , 2024.

This extravagant seven-day tour will feature luxury accommodations in Florence, Modena and Bologna, with private coach transportation, Michelin starred dining and charming multigenerational family restaurants. VIP visits to wineries and specialty regional culinary producers is also to be part of the itinerary.

Chef Fraser Macfarlane.

The cuisine featured on this tour is a major highlight, and the restaurants are especially selected for you to experience the best this region has to offer. The tour has been coordinated by luxury travel experts at Pauwels Travel who have more than 50 years experience in the group travel business.

The cost of this trip is $11,995 per person (taxes are included) based on double occupancy, land only. Flights can be booked privately or with the assistance of Pauwels Travel at www.pauwelstravel.com.

The price of this luxury tour includes:

• luxury hotels with daily breakfast, 7 nights
• transportation by luxury coach
• group daily activities, such as museums, wineries, truffle hunt
• one group lunch or dinner per day with paired wines
• tour representatives from Pauwels Travel who will accompany the group and be available 24/7 to take care of every need while on tour

The tour starts in Tuscany and moves on to Emilia Romagna, a region widely considered a mythical destination for foodies, the true heartland of Italian cuisine. This is, after all, the home of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, Balsamic Vinegar and Prosciutto di Parma, as well as some of Italy’s most famous wines.

The St. Regis Florence.

Gastronomy is so important here that the region is often referred to as the “Food Valley.” Gourmet travelers arrive like gastro-pilgrims to the region’s producers, and top Michelin starred restaurants, like Massimo Bottura’s Osteria Francescana (winner of the World’s Best Restaurant Award). The tour finishes in the historical city of Bologna, known for its ancient architecture and rich food.

Proposed itinerary

Sunday, September 29 th – Optional overnight flight from Toronto to Florence (connections via Frankfurt or Brussels). Alternatively, flights can be booked through Milan or Rome with an approximate three-hour land transfer to Florence from each.

Monday, September 30 th – Coach transportation from Florence airport to our hotel (30km), the ideally situated 5-star St. Regis Florence on the banks of the Arno River with views to the Ponte Vecchio. Perfectly placed in the city’s historical center, the hotel offers an unrivaled immersion into the cradle of the Renaissance where we will spend the next three nights.

Florence, a romantic, enchanting and utterly irresistible city, is a great place to feast on world class art and gourmet Tuscan cuisine. After check-in to the hotel, guests will have time to rest and relax or explore the city center before this evening’s welcome dinner at a specially chosen trattoria.

Tuesday, October 1 st – Breakfast in the hotel at your leisure. Morning departure into the hills of the Chianti Classico wine region, featuring cypress-lined roads and medieval hilltop villages. Visit a quintessential town in this region and enjoy a VIP premium wine estate visit and tasting, followed by a leisurely group lunch at a local gastronomic farm-style restaurant.

The recipes from this region have taken their secrets from the country traditions and the dishes are made exclusively with ingredients that are in season. A late afternoon return to the hotel and free evening to explore Florence. Optional dining recommendations will be available.

Wednesday, October 2 nd – Breakfast in the hotel at your leisure. Morning guided pedestrian tour of central Florence, the capital of Tuscany and home to Michealangelo, the Medici, and some of the most beautiful architecture in the world. Our in-depth guided tour will showcase both historic landmarks as well as the city’s vibrant gastronomy scene including the Mercato Centrale di Firenze – Florence’s historic food market. In its beautiful two-storey structure you will be impressed by the rich selection of fresh traditional products with flavors linked to the rich and genuine local cuisine.

Free time for lunch and open afternoon to explore the city, with optional guided tour of the Uffizi Gallery, one of the world’s finest and oldest art galleries, or perhaps a local cooking class for those interested. Group dining experience this evening at a specially selected gourmet Florentine restaurant.

Thursday, October 3 rd – Breakfast at your leisure in the hotel. Morning departure for the Emilia Romagna region, exploring the countryside of this scenic area enroute, with free time in a charming village for lunch. Your base for the next two days is hotel Casa Maria Luigia, an intimate guest house in the countryside near the town of Modena. The world-famous chef Massimo Bottura and his wife Lara decided to convert this beautiful property into an exclusive and intimate “albergo” where they could showcase their elaborate art and provide their guests with an even more immersive gastronomic experience than their nearby restaurant Osteria Francescana – which has regularly been voted the No. 1 Restaurant in the World! – could offer.

For this evening, the hotel’s exclusive dining area has been privately booked for a nine-course meal with wine pairing, showcasing Chef Bottura’s most famous Michelin starred courses in what will undoubtedly be a once in a lifetime gastronomic experience.

Friday, October 4 th – Morning breakfast at your leisure. This morning your group will travel towards the town of Parma where the famous, DOC protected Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese is produced, which earns its official name only after the local ‘Consorzio’ has inspected and offically stamped each and every wheel. Your destination is Antica Corte Pallavicina where you will tour the “Museo Del Culatello e Del Masalen” in order to learn about the rich history of the local salami and cheese in this region.

You will also tour the “Cellars of the Corte” built in 1320 by the Marquesses of Pallavicini where the famous salumi’s are cured and wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano are aged. Situated in a fairytale setting, this property resembles a castle although it was in fact built as a customs house on the Po River in the 14C. It is now renowned for its “culatello”, one of the region’s famous hams. Here you will enjoy a group lunch at Antica Corte Pallavicina’s Michelin starred restaurant “a place where you can still breathe the authentic air of the ancient medieval osterias, where the environment and the dishes tell the story of an important time in gastronomic history”.

Return to the hotel late afternoon. Free evening with optional dinner at Al Gatto Verde, a casual bistro on the property at our hotel Casa Maria Luigia, or options for dining nearby at a special family-run restaurant in the town of Modena.

Saturday, October 5 th – Breakfast in the hotel at your leisure. Check out and morning departure for the city of Bologna where you will spend the next two evenings. Upon arrival to Bologna, you will enjoy a historical guided tour of the “Central Storico” and learn about the rich history of the art, culture and food of the city. Bologna is often overlooked by tourists who tend to flock to the more famous attractions of Florence and Venice.

As you will discover, Bologna is one of the most beautiful and well-preserved cities in Europe, home to its oldest university (founded in 1088), rich in art and culture, and last but not least, the gastronomic capital of Italy. Your guided tour will be followed by a group lunch in one of Bologna’s most celebrated trattorias. After lunch you will check into the 5-star Grand Hotel Majestic where you will spend the next two nights.

This evening you will be free to explore the wonderful city of Bologna with recommendations for dining provided.

Sunday, October 6 th – Breakfast in the hotel at your leisure. Mid-morning you will venture into the “Land of Truffles” in the hills of the Bologna and Imola region, where you will learn all about Italian truffles. This region is famous for these delicacies and your expert guide and his truffle sniffing dog will take you on a walking journey and teach about the different varieties growing in the region while you hunt for the elusive truffle.

After your hike, enjoy a farewell lunch (with truffles of course!) at a delightful restaurant with top quality cuisine that has strong roots in the gastronomic traditions of this region.

Late afternoon return to Bologna. This final evening is at your leisure, with the option to meet as a group to enjoy a farewell cocktail at the hotel.

Monday, October 7 th – Breakfast in the hotel. Check out with departure to Bologna Airport (Air Canada Flight via Frankfurt 11:00 a.m. or 10:40 a.m via Zurich) or to Florence Airport. Alternatively, guests may continue to travel on to other regions.

This tour will be limited to 16 guests and will sell out quickly!

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow, a City Like No Other

Moscow is Russia’s largest city with a population of between 12 and 13 million. It is also Europe’s largest city and when you visit Moscow, you can feel it. The layout and architecture of the city is eclectic, ranging from crooked, ancient streets and alleyways to wide, bustling boulevards, from medieval churches to Stalin skyscrapers and to modern, glass buildings towering over everything and of course in the center of it all is the Kremlin and the magnificent Red Square. Moscow is also home to a fantastic, efficient and very beautiful metro system – each station having its own special design. In fact, Express to Russia’s Moscow metro tours and excursions are some of our most popular attractions that we offer. On our Moscow tours, you will see this and more.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you.

When is the best time to visit Moscow? | Weather, budget, events by month

• July 14, 2023

Discover when is the best time to visit Moscow. In this blog post, I will talk about weather, budget and other things to know to choose the best time when to go to Moscow for you. I cannot account the times when we went in Moscow. Here are the pros and the cons of each month taking all main criteria into account!

I will first describe the main criteria that will help you choose when to go to Moscow:

• Climate in Moscow: temperatures and weather

Special events in Moscow

• Budget and visa

Then I will talk about each season (go directly to this party if you already have an idea of ​​the desired departure date):

• Advantages and disadvantages month by month

The weather cannot be the only criterion to decide when is the best time to visit Moscow for you. Even if the temperatures drop low, Moscow in December is just magical! This is why I advise to take into account several criteria at the same time. Also remember that it takes at least a month to get the Russian visa.

When to go to Moscow: climate and weather

The seasons are well marked. The mid-season months are not necessarily the best for the weather. However, they are not necessarily to be avoided, because, as we will see later, Moscow is a city that changes all the time and the prices can be more attractive. For example, for a lot of people winter is the best time to visit Moscow.

Weather in Moscow. Moscow is inland, making the city “more protected” from changing weather. For example, the weather is much more changeable in St. Petersburg. On the other hand, the weather in Moscow is more and more scorching in summer, we can then easily reach 30 degrees (for the Russians, it’s already the heat wave).

Moscow temperatures

As soon as you think of Russia, you want to do “Brrrr”. Let’s prepare our down jackets! Indeed, the Russian climate is not the mildest on the planet. However, it all depends on the region, because the country is very large. Moscow is almost at the same latitude as Copenhagen. As Moscow is relatively far from the coast, there is a pronounced continental climate. It is hot in summer and cold in winter.

In addition, global warming is there. For several decades, annual average temperatures have always been recorded above the past. I suggest you look at the averages over the past five years to be as close as possible to reality:

Sunshine and precipitation

Sunshine. This is surprising, but there is more sunshine in Moscow than in Paris or even in Berlin: 1,731 hours in Moscow, compared to 1661 in Paris and 1626 in Berlin.

Duration of the day in winter. We had questions about the length of the day in winter. So, here are a few things. As in Europe, the shortest days are in December. In Moscow, at the end of December, the sun rises around 9 a.m. and sets around 4 p.m. Then the day gets bigger until the end of June, when the day is the longest.

Precipitation. There is more precipitation in Moscow than in Paris (705mm against 637mm).

When is the best time to visit Moscow: interesting events

Moscow is a city that moves a lot. It is even said that this city never sleeps. So there are a lot of events, forums, exhibitions, conferences. Here I’m going to talk about the main recurring events that punctuate the year and that may help you decide when to go to Moscow.

End of year celebrations in Moscow

December 31 rather than Christmas. The Russians are eagerly awaiting the holiday season. Here on December 31 is like Christmas with us. Religion, “opium of the people” according to Marx, and, above all, its official absence marked the country during the Soviet years. This then reinforced the celebration of December 31, while Orthodox Christmas is January 7.

Russian calendar. In addition, it should be known that the first week of January is a bank holiday. Many Russians therefore do not work during this period. Europe also greatly influences the habits of Muscovites. Consequently, the Christmas markets start in early December and, for some, continue until early February!

Fairytale atmosphere. If you are wondering when to go to Moscow and you love the holiday mood, then the end of December – early January, and even February, is for you! There are many things to do during this time: for example, Christmas markets, decorations, winter games, skating rinks. In 2016, Moscow opened the largest ice rink in Europe. In short, the city is doing a lot of entertainment during this period and the general atmosphere is at the top! However, everything comes at a cost. You can see more detail below in the article, month by month.

Find our more in this blog post: Christmas and New Year in Moscow .

Visit Moscow in May

May 1 and 9 are two big festivals in Russia. Both dates are known worldwide. May 9 in Russia is May 8 with us in France. The signature that marks the end of the Second World War. The shift day is explained by … the difference in time zone.

The May 9 holiday is a very important holiday for the Russians. The Soviet human losses amounted to millions. So there are many families who have been directly affected by the war. The first big parade was organized by Stalin on June 24, 1945 in Red Square in Moscow. Later each year the USSR and then Russia organized a parade on May 9. Here is the video of the first parade dating from 1945 in color, then the last – that of 2016.

A disadvantage of the beginning of May. For the planned events, Red Square will not be completely empty. There are always installations for May 9, but also rehearsals. So, to the question “when is the best time to visit Moscow”, I would not say that May is the best one. You can find out more in the article “Moscow in autumn” below.

Throughout the year, the Moscow City Hall organizes free events (festivals, small markets, concerts, etc.) in the Red Square and in the streets of the city center. For example, there are two major interesting events:

• Festival of Lights “Around the World”: in 2019, it was from September 28 to October 4.
• Anniversary of the city of Moscow always celebrated the first weekend of September.

When is the best time to visit Moscow: budget, price seasonality, visa

Most touristy periods. Many travelers come to Moscow from May to October. This is the period when we see the most tourists in Moscow. In addition, many are also those who come at the end of December and at the beginning of January for the New Year. The beginning of May and the first week of January are also strongly requested, in particular by the Russians (school holidays, public holidays).

Accommodation. Hotel rates therefore necessarily increase during these periods of the year. But they do not go so far as to triple. To give an idea, count at least 80 euros in the city center for a double room with breakfast. You can read more about the districts of Moscow in my article: Where to stay in Moscow?

Guides and tours. Also take into account that during these periods it will be more difficult to find a guide at the last moment. It’s best to do it 2-3 months in advance. There will be more waiting or difficulty obtaining tickets during the months of high tourist influx: late December, early January, May, June, July, August.

Visa for Russia. The cost of the visa does not change depending on the month of the year. On the other hand, the deadlines can be longer if you make the request for the high tourist season (from May to October). Allow about a month. Getting the Russian visa is not complicated, there is a procedure to follow.

In Russia, the seasons are divided as follows:

• Fall: September, October, November.
• Winter: December, January, February.
• Spring: March, April, May.
• Summer: June, July, August.

Discover Moscow in autumn: when is the best time to visit Moscow in autumn?

From the beginning of September, we feel that the temperatures begin to drop gradually, especially at night.

Moscow in September

More and more travelers are choosing the month of September to go to Moscow. Because it is not cold yet and there are fewer tourists than in summer. Prices drop slightly, but remain higher than in the lean months of the year. There is also the city’s birthday on the first weekend in September, but also the “Around the World” festival towards the end of the month.

Moscow in October

You are likely to come across the colors of autumn from the beginning of October. The accommodation prices are starting to drop gradually. There is less waiting in the places to visit. Temperatures are not very low: during the day they are generally around +6 degrees. On the other hand, the only negative point can be the cost of plane tickets, if you leave during the French school holidays.

Moscow in November

It’s one of the least calm! Temperatures drop and can approach zero during the day in mid-November. Hotel rates are low, there are few tourists, and therefore less waiting in museums. It’s easier to get tickets for the Kremlin Palace of Armor, which can be very difficult in the summer. Guides also have more availability. So why not go to Moscow in November?

Discover Moscow in winter: when is the best time to visit Moscow in winter?

Winter is a very nice time to go to Moscow, because the Christmas and New Year decorations are installed from the beginning of December and are not removed until the end of February. To learn more about the different activities in winter, read this article: What to do in Moscow in winter? If winter temperatures scare you, check out Moscow in the spring (see below).

Moscow in december

Normally, negative daytime temperatures set in, although the weather can vary significantly from year to year. In general, from mid-December the snow is durable. It is from December 20 that more and more travelers come to Moscow. December 31st is celebrated like Christmas in France. Accommodation rates are higher from mid-December. It’s also more complicated to find a guide at the last moment. Furthermore, as in Europe, the days of December are the shortest of the year. But if you want to mark New Years Day, you will have lots of memories!

Moscow in january

January is also a very festive month. The first week of January is a public holiday in Russia. Besides, it’s also a week of Russian school holidays. There are more people in the streets, museums and everywhere in the city. To find out more about this time of year (Christmas markets, itineraries, etc.), read: Christmas and New Years in Moscow . Prices remain high during this week, but drop from mid-January.

Moscow in February

It’s the second quietest month of the year. In February, winter clearly takes its ease. The temperatures are the lowest, it’s a real winter! The days are longer in February than in December. So we’re enjoying the day more, and with the snow it’s really nice, because the weather in Moscow in February is pretty sunny. Accommodation rates are at their lowest, and the decorations are still there. So, if you are looking for when to go to Moscow, if the cold does not scare you and you appreciate the snowy landscapes, why not consider the month of February?

Discover Moscow in spring: when is the best time to visit Moscow in spring?

Spring is a contrasting period between March, which is still quite cold, and May, when we really feel the arrival of summer.

Moscow in March

The ice and snow begin to melt around mid-March. Winter is coming in March, but spring is not quite there yet. It’s the third quietest month of the year. It is therefore possible to visit the city more quietly. Accommodation prices are low, guides are available. The weather in Moscow in March is milder than in February. In addition, the days are longer, so you can take many walks.

Moscow in April

It is only from mid-April that we begin to feel the beginnings of sunny days. The weather in Moscow in spring and April in particular is getting milder and colder: we can expect +7 during the day. In addition, there are not many travelers yet and we fear to enjoy the places more quietly, but we feel that the start of the tourist season is approaching. Accommodation rates are lower than in May.

Moscow in May

The early May holidays attract many travelers to Moscow. There are also many Russians who come to the capital on public holidays. It is therefore advisable to plan visits in advance to avoid queuing once there. Red Square can be closed or partially closed for rehearsals for the May 9 parade, the same day and one or two days after. More info in: Moscow in May: events, budget, what to do?

Discover Moscow in summer: when is the best time to visit Moscow in summer?

All summer months are great, if you take temperatures into account. The weather in Moscow in summer is quite pleasant. However, in recent years, there have been great heat peaks or heat waves in July (30 degrees during the day).

Moscow in June

From June, you can take long walks in the city’s parks, very numerous and much appreciated by the locals. Boat trips are more enjoyable from June. On the other hand, the prices of accommodation in Moscow are higher than in the lean months. There are also more tourists. Book your hotel, tours and activities in advance.

Moscow in july

July is the hottest month, but we’re not on +40. Moscow is a city inland and therefore there is little fresh air, if it is very hot. We can do lots of walks to discover the city. We have written several complete itineraries so as not to miss anything of Moscow in our special Moscow travel guide. It also contains tips to save time and enjoy the city off the beaten track, as there are so many tourists during this time of year.

Moscow in August

Temperatures are starting to drop gradually, but there are still so many people. In order to be sure of the choice of accommodation, I advise you to book in advance. The same goes for guided tours or entrance tickets to the Kremlin. It’s also a good time to discover the city differently by going to places that are less touristy and more frequented by locals.

When is the best time to go to Moscow? In summary!

The best time to discover Moscow depends on the criteria you want to favor: the weather, the budget, the tranquility of the visits, the special events to be experienced on site.

In summary:

• The peak tourist season in Moscow begins in early May and ends in late September.
• Late December and early January is the best time to experience the holiday mood, but it comes at a cost.
• End of January, February, March, beginning of April, November are the quietest months of the year, when you can visit the city more calmly and on a reduced budget.

So, have you decided when to go to Moscow? 🙂 Do you plan to visit Moscow in spring, summer, autumn or winter?

Travel idea! As in all cases you will get a visa and there is only 4 hours by train between Moscow and Saint Petersburg, why not visit both cities? Read an example of a route here: Moscow to Saint Petersburg in one week.

If you still have doubts, take a look at what you can visit in Moscow in order to choose the best period: Things to do in Moscow in 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 days.

Testimonials

We love hearing from all the wonderful people that have joined Pauwels Travel on trips around the world!

TRANS-SIBERIAN TOUR

My travels with Pauwels Travel began in 1999 with a trip to Paris. Since then I have taken many trips, some with my partner and some with my friends (whom I introduced to your tours and who have continued to travel with Pauwels!) Probably, like me their experiences have been positive. The tours are always great and I always feel well looked after. The Trans-Siberian tour was interesting and fun. It is like a fine wine that you keep recalling and remembering how it tasted and how glad you are that you had the opportunity to experience it! Carolyn F.

ASPLER WINE TOUR

I have been meaning to email for a week or so to say how much I enjoyed the Italy tour, and meeting you and Cathy. I really do congratulate you both - you handled everything with enormous tact and efficiency (not always easy, I know) and made sure that we all had a terrific time. We could not have wished for more fun, and understanding, leaders. I was very sad to wave off the bus in Verona, and hope that you all had a great time in Venice and Florence. They were an entertaining group, and I missed you all afterwards. I do hope we can get together for another tour. F.C. London, UK

We had a great time on the trip, and you and Cathy did a great job. We are thinking seriously at this point of joining next year's tour, especially if it is the same mix of town and countryside, vineyards and other attractions. Would you ensure that we are on your list when the plans firm up. We also have friends who are very interested. Keep us posted. We'll be interested to see the itinerary. B. & M. Victoria, BC

Stephen and Cathy, thank you for the great pics you have posted. The memories come flooding back when I look at them. It truly was the trip of a lifetime! Thanks for everything you both did to make it all come together. Of course I want to be kept informed [of the Bordeaux tour] – I certainly intend to go assuming the timing is in May. I have told some other people about it and if they want more info I will send along their e-mail addresses.  G.P. Toronto

Thank you very much for the update on the Wine Tour, your fantastic pictures and a preview of plans for a future wine tour. We wanted to thank you both for the wonderful job you did escorting this tour. You made it seem so effortless but I am sure that is not the case. We certainly enjoyed your company and everyone else on the trip as well. This was a very special group and I have to think that our common bond, an appreciation of good wine, provided the chemistry that made this group so congenial. We feel we have made a friend in each and every one of you. I hope we can stay in touch. Our thanks also goes out to Tony Aspler who organized the trip so beautifully. We really did get to visit some very prestigious wine producers, stay in some wonderful hotels and visit some of the most historic landmarks in all of Europe. Last but not least the wonderful wines we sampled and the wine bars and enotecas we discovered along the way were just marvelous. Thank you, Tony! The trip in the works to visit the Bordeaux Region of France sounds intriguing. I would love to have an opportunity to return there and take Stella to see it for the first time. While it is difficult to commit to the trip at this point we will certainly give it consideration and would like to be kept in the loop as the planning progresses. Thanks again to everybody for making this trip a memory that will last for a lifetime. We hope to meet you all again someday soon. D. & S. Woodstock, ON

BERLIN IN DEPTH TOUR

We certainly would include this tour among the best holiday trips that we have ever taken. The tour arrangements were great, including the hotel and meals and the well organized day-trips... We found Berlin to be a virtual walk-in encyclopedia of arts and architecture. We also found your daily 'briefings' on the history of Germany to be very helpful in filling in the gaps from our readings preparatory to the trip. J. and E.S, Don Mills, ON

Thank you for making the trip so lively and informative. The depth of information and the effective presentations added immeasurably to my enjoyment of this visit to Berlin.  D. D., Arlington, Virginia

We have appreciated the balance between guided tour and free time to explore and experience the city in our own way...[It was] such an enriching experience, including opera, theatre, and concert.  D. & O. L., Toronto, ON

Just a brief comment about the recently-completed Berlin in Depth tour: Berlin was great! The tour was great! R.F., Brampton, ON

THE PILGRIMS' ROAD TO COMPOSTELA TOUR

We had a wonderful trip on the Camino. Thank you, it was informative, inspiring and fun!  A. & D. F., Toronto, ON

CORSICA AND SARDINIA TOUR

Thank you for the delightful tour of Sardinia and Corsica. What beautiful islands! We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and loved the food and the sights and of course the people. We'll never forget the beautiful Mediterranean and of course that boat ride back from Sardinia to Corsica. Your presentations are always informative and delightful, a highlight of the tour. A great and fun time was had by all! B. & R. C., Etobicoke, ON

CROSSROAD CITIES OF EUROPE TOUR

We're just back from Vienna and Prague... great trip in all respects including the KLM flight! We wanted to thank you so much for your efforts in getting us "extra legroom" seats with our Flying Blue points. It's amazing how much of a difference it makes for that long haul over the ocean. Now we're spoiled of course!! Anyway, thanks again for your efforts.  John & Sally Wismer

I just wanted you to know that I thought the Egypt trip the best I had ever been on. We certainly had value for money and lots of fun in the bargain... Ihab was an inspired choice for a guide.  D. W., Alton, ON

LYBIA TOUR

Many thanks for your efforts to arrange and guide this Lybian tour off the beaten track. It was the Roman ruins of Leptis Magna that hooked us, but it was the days in the desert that we'll remember as the highlight. I see in your recent flyer that the trip will be repeated. It will be a winner as well for anyone that takes it.  B. & J. U., Waterloo, ON

MALAYSIA AND SINGAPORE TOUR

This is just a note to let you know how much I enjoyed the Malaysian Trip. Besides being excellent value for the money, it was adventurous, exotic, informative and fun in more ways than one.  C. V. I., Toronto, ON

MAPLE LEAF ROUTE TOUR

When I was in high school, I hated history. However,being "on the ground" as you led us through war-torn countries really made events come alive. Your commentary was more than we could have imagined. We found the sheer number of places visited rewarding and we both felt the special treatment we were given was above and beyond what we had expected.  L. and M. Kay, London, ON

I thought your itinerary was excellent and Jacques and Joanne were superb at leading this tour. I was VERY impressed. DO NOT ever cancel this tour... I think that what you offer is financially reasonable and is great for ALL age groups. I know there is a lot of Canadians out there that could connect to this. Please continue to offer this tour.  D. A., Trenton, ON

Your Maple Leaf Tour was wonderful and absolutely overwhelming. You made it live for us and I only wish I could remember more of the history you presented to us with facts and figures. It is a trip that will be in my thoughts many times in the future. Too much good food!!  M.T. Waterloo, ON

SILK ROAD AND TIBET TOUR

I felt each day of our 20-day trip was outstanding! Just when I thought the very first day was wonderful and could not possibly be improved upon, each day thereafter was just as sensational. The people, music, food, architecture and history were so very diversified and unsurpassed I felt I visited three different countries... [this was] a trip of a lifetime.  P.A., St. George, ON

TAORMINA (SICILY) IN DEPTH TOUR

I just wanted to tell you I loved everything about the tour--the Hotel Isabella, the food, the wine (of course), and the archaeological sights most of all--so well introduced by Jacques' lectures (usually while he held us captive on the bus!). Also, huge thanks to Aurelio, the fearless busdriver, and Joanne, the fearless tour escort. This was my fifth trip with Pauwels Travel and all of the journeys have given me new knowledge and great joy. I was so lucky to find you!  D.M. Toronto, ON

FLORENCE IN DEPTH TOUR

Michael, you arranged a wonderful trip. I have been wanting to visit Florence for years and I enjoyed every minute. Thank you for your teaching moments which brought so much meaning to what we were seeing. We enjoyed our Cinque Terre trip so much too and we were appreciative of the schedule changes you made so we would not miss anything. The only sad part is that it is over! I hope to have the opportunity to travel with you again.  Laurie Gladwish

PARIS IN DEPTH TOUR

My wife Sharon and I joined Michael Quinn on the recent tour of Paris, it was a wonderful and memorable experience. Our sincere thanks to Michael for his excellent service in making our holiday one that we will always remember. We are looking forward to travelling with Michael again in the future! Sharon
