My family and I went on a trip to Russia from the 23 Dec 2018 to 2 Jan 2019 and had a very memorable trip as not only was the itinerary fun and interesting, our tour manager Jeremiah was nothing but an amazing guide!During the trip, we got to admire how beautiful Russia is and also learnt more about it's rich history. On top of that we participated in many fun-filled winter activities which were an experience of a lifetime for us.This trip was made more comfortable and enjoyable because of Jeremiah. He made long bus rides more bearable with the jokes that he shared. He also ensured that we got from one point to another safely not only in Russia, but when we were at Dubai for our transit.He even went to the extend to pay for the "photography fee" out of his own pocket at one of the museums and took the pictures for us while we listened to the history just so that we could take back a piece of the beautiful museum home.It was these little things that he did that made the trip that much more enjoyable and memorable for us!Kudos to Jeremiah and EU Holidays !
