My daughter and I have just returned to Australia from a Grand small group Tour of Italy with Firebird Tours. It surpassed all our expectations and we can't speak highly enough of the team that was behind the planning, organising and implementing of such a wonderful trip. It was stress free, the drivers and guides were friendly, informative and punctual. The itinerary covered every detail, well balanced and stream lined. It just all worked so smoothly from first contact to the tour itself. Thank you to all the Firebird team for the trip of a lifetime!
Firebird did an excellent job of working with us, adjusting activities to satisfy our needs and executed a perfect Visa Process for this very nervous traveler. Once on the ground in Saint Petersburg our guide, Maria, was informative, interesting and took care of us. The same goes for our driver. Hotel was very nice as was the weather except for one day.
We highly recommend this team at Firebird Tours
Julia was awesome she organized s dream vacation for my husband and I. Excellent hotels with amazing locations. We had amazing drivers as well.Thank you
This was our first time traveling with Firebird tours, and we were genuinely pleased with the experience. The accommodations were all to our liking, and the tour guides were exceptional. All travel and excursions happened on time as per our itinerary. All in all, it was a very good experience. We will recommend Firebird to our friends, and use them again ourselves.
Everything proceeded with excellence. We were met at the airport perfactly. The hotels were located perfectly, and the tours were grand. The only suggestion is to provide a quick map of the hotels when you have travelers arriving at night. In Bergen it was a [problem finding the hotel even though it was 5 minutes from the Ship arrival point. The Bergen hotel prided itself on understatement and blending into history. However it was heavy rain. We ended up at a Clarion and took a cab to the hotel... we learned that we walked past the hotel in the rain for about 1km in our search. The hotel was beautiful and perfectly located. All Firebird hotel selections were perfectly located for our objectives. Thank you Firebird
From my first inquiry, everything went smoothly. The plan was well constructed. The guides were pleasant and well informed. The hotels were heavenly. Traveling alone at 70 I never felt insecure or unattended. It was a delightful birthday trip.
Our Italy trip was amazing!! Firebird tours took care of everything, we had great english speaking tour guides and great transfer drivers. They also picked us great lodging. We appreciate all the hard work that Sim did you make our trip so wonderful!! We will use Firebird again on our next trip.
This was my first trip with Firebird and I can’t say enough about the efficiency and responsiveness of the staff. I even received a call from Maria at our first stop in Copenhagen to ask if everything was going okay.
Scandinavia is a great itinerary but a bit too intense. I found the three hour walking tours in each city tiring. Had the city guides in Copenhagen and Sweden provided us with transportation passes like they did in Helsinki and Oslo, it would have been much more enjoyable
The hotels Firebird selects are four star and classy; however we only spend a night or two in each one. Since the tour is so intense and the hotels are so magnificent, optional tours are unnecessary. In my opinion, there is no reason to take optional tours when the hotels and places near the hotels provide plenty of activity.
For me, the train trip to Flam was the highlight of the tour. And the Hotel Fretheim staff were most gracious and accommodating.
My fellow travelers unanimously chose Firebird Tours because it offered other modes of travel like train, plane, and ferry rather than just bus. This was my first Firebird tour, but will not be my last.
Easy to work with. Responsive to all questions. Tour guides were very informative.
Firebird arranged my July 2019 trip to Russia as well as a trip to Russia in 2018. I really appreciated their personal attention to my most recent trip and felt completely taken care of while in Russia. I was met at the Moscow airport, taken to my Moscow hotel, picked up there and taken to the Volga Dream and then picked up in St Petersburg and taken to the airport. Loved the Moscow hotel they had booked for me. I really recommend Firebird and plan to use them for my trans-Siberia railway trip in the future.
My husband and I could not be happier with Firebird Tours. We traveled with a customized tour to Switzerland and Germany in July 2019. We mainly worked with Gabby who was incredibly helpful in the planning of our itinerary. She was very responsive to our requests. We loved having the private guides as that afforded us the opportunity to hear first-hand about the sites we were seeing and to have our many questions answered. We enjoyed traveling between the cities by train and all our hotel accommodations were fine. Thank you Firebird Tours for creating so many wonderful memories for us.
Firebird Tours and their travel specialist Diana did a great job in setting up our trip to Switzerland! Our trip was customized to meet our desire to visit Brienz in addition to Zurich and Lucerne. Our hotels and their locations were perfect. In Zurich we stayed at Hotel St. Gotthard and in Brienz we stayed at Hotel Brienzerburli. The two guides we had for different tours were very informative and gave us great tours. We were able to see a very beautiful part of Switzerland thanks to Firebird Tours! Kathryn N.
The continuous contact by the various personnel is top-notch. The overall plan, guides, suggested options were spot-on. This is the third major tour company I have engaged over the years, and far and away the best. I can't wait to use Firebirds again.
Firebird promised to deliver services and the company succeeded
in all areas. The private tour guides were excellent. We would not hesitate to look to them for quality tour arrangements again.
They arranged a custom tour for us to Scandinavia. Guides were first rate, hotels well situated so that things we liked to see were in easy walking distance. We had two emergencies, neither of them the fault of the company -- a train delay in Denmark for example. We called their emergency number and they were right on the matter standing by to help. Very satisfied. In fact when they did a follow up call to thank us, we chatted for a while and learned that they also handle the places where we want to go next and we told them to go ahead and make the plans. To repeat, first rate responsive planning, good folllow up and thuogh they are located I think in Florida have an easily accesssible and responsiv emergency number in Europe.
We traveled with Firebird Tours for the first time this summer, to the Scandinavian Capitals and Russia. We were delighted, as Firebird provided us exactly what we wanted - support before our trip, precise planning for hotels and transportation and orientation tours in each city with fab guides - and we had plenty of time on our own to spend afternoons doing our own thing, and dining wherever we chose. It would have been labor intensive for us to orchestrate this whirlwind adventure on our own - so we left it to Firebird, will recommend this company to our friends, and will use them again. Thank you Firebird Tours!
The organization was perfect. Everything went as planned without a minute to wait. The local guides and drivers including the cars were to our full satisfation. Hotels were good . In total ,All promises were fulfilled.
Firebirds organized a fabulous custom trip for myself and 12 of my closest friends. All provisions were perfect...a wonderful company that organized our trip to perfection. Accommodations, transfers and tours were wonderful. Absolutely no complaints from any of our party. I thank you Monica for being our guide for a lovely and memorable vacation.
Highly recommend the Firebird Tours team to anyone who wishes to have the best and reliable travel experience to great destinations.
The tour organization was excellent, the tour guides were very knowledgeable and kind, the private drivers were experienced and courteous. I am very grateful to everyone at Firebird Tours who made my The Soul of Russia Tour a truly amazing experience.
Thank you Firebird Tours for your outstanding work!
