European CombinationsEuropean Combinations

NETC is a tremendous company that is the clear leader in its field. NETC provides excellent communication, customer service

and prepares you well for the trip. Hotels are comfortable and centrally located, restaurants are local and don’t pander to American audiences and the tour guides are knowledgeable. I have used other companies in the past, but have no plans or de-sires to use anyone but NETC again.”
