Wonderful Family Tour Experience - If you are thinking of booking one of Steve Wright's European tours, do not hesitate. My husband and I wanted to gift our grandson a trip to Germany to tour the car factories. After living in Germany for many years, we were unsure that a formal tour was the path we wanted to take but we are so happy that we did. Not only did Steve book all of the factory tours and accompanying museums for us but chose car-themed hotels and found wonderful restaurants as well. In addition we were also able to visit castles, breweries, take a Munich city tour and fit in a day in the Bavarian/Austrian alps. Steve has a comprehensive knowledge of the areas where the factories are located and was willing to honor special requests as well. We were able to shop at a special toy store in the Munich suburbs, visit a German grocery store for our daghter who accompanied us and fulfill a bucket list item to visit the Weihenstephan Brewery. It was the utmost in luxury to be driven everywhere in a private Mercedes van. This trip more than exceeded our expectations and provided us with memories for a lifetime.

Great guide and great guided tour - Wright Europe did a great job of showing us the best of what a German Car Enthusiast would want. My son, Lucas and I, toured the most interesting factories and museums, stayed at the most fantastic hotels, ate at great restaurants, and had an engaging time with Steve. Very accommodating to our needs and willing to be as adventurous as we wanted. Steve was great help even before touring, aiding with planes, trains and automobiles. I can't say enough of how comfortable he was with our surroundings, giving us the confidence and comfort we needed to have a fun-filled yet relaxing time. Scott Angove

What a Way to Go! - Steven put together a magnificent itinerary encompassing the five major German automobile manufacturers and their museums. We visited BMW, Audi, Mercedes Benz, Porsche, and Volkswagen. We stayed at hotels that would please any gearhead. They housed many classic cars which just added to the ambiance of the trip. So, the tour was great, accommodations were fabulous, food very good, and the fun factor-priceless. If you are interested in this type of trip, you won't go wrong with Wright Europe Travels.

German Auto Factory Tour and Much More! - We had a great experience touring Nurburing, five auto assembly plants & their museums, Hohenschwangau Castle, and ended with Oktoberfest. What a blast!!

A truly enjoyable car tour guided by an enthusiastic enjoyable and knowledgeable family man - I’m a lifelong car guy. Steven Wright is the car guy’s man. Knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, professional and kind. Tours for Mercedes, Porsche, Audi and BMW, both factory and museums. So much good stuff! Steve was flexible and added on the fly a brief but wonderful visit to the 1972 Olympic Village in Munich. He also got our tour members walking on the Nurburgring racetrack start/finish line moments before a 12 hour race began. Did I mention Oktoberfest tickets? Steve got all of our private tour members nearly unobtainable Oktoberfest tent seats. Plus castle tours … ❤️ Dare I say this … “I’ll be back!” Wright Tours 👍🏻

German Automotive Factory Tours - My cousin and i are car guys. We found Wright Tours on the internet while searching for German car factory tours. We made contact with Steve and requested the addition of Ocktoberfest be added on. This was done without hesitation. We were picked up at the airport provided accommodations at wonderful hotels, side trips to castled and he even reserved a car for me to rent so that i was able to drive on the autobahn! Our tour ended in München but our return flight was from Frankfort. No problem, Steve picked us up at 5:30 AM for the 4 hour drive back from Munich so we could catch our flight home. We had a wonderful 10 day trip. In my opinion, if you want a specialized trip in Europe, contact Wright Tours and see what he has to offer!

Wright Europe Germany Auto Tour - Steve’s tour was perfect for my car-loving son and me! Booking the tour was very easy, and Steve kept us updated with detailed plans even before we arrived. Having just a small travel group was fantastic, and everything was very well planned. Steve was a wonderful knowledgeable tour guide, and we got to see and experience way more than we would have had we traveled on our own. We definitely would (and hope to!) book a tour with Steve again in the future.

We visited car factories and car museums and castles - I can’t say enough about wrighteurope and Steven Wright. The tour is everything a car guy could ask for. Steven is knowledgeable, organized, prompt, accommodating , considerate and engaging. This was our grandsons high school graduation trip with us. He’s a real car guy and Steven related well to him and made it a life changing trip. We started as clients and finished as lifelong friends of Steven Wright!

Another Great Customized Tour of Poland & Germany - Just finished a customized tour of Poland & Germany with Wright tours (my second in a row) and I had an amazing time. Poland has so much to offer and my guide for Poland was Maciej Krupski. We saw all the sites I had requested and more. Time in Poland was 17 days but I wanted to get a taste of all 4 corners of the country and I did. Maciej suggested a couple of extra things to do and adjusted the tour for driving times and plenty of time at the sites. Some we left early (as I was finished seeing what I had come for) and this gave us extra time at other sites. He helped me hunt for souvenirs and suggested many interesting restaurants to get out of my comfort zone. I spent time in Germany with Steve and did tours in Berlin and saw some castles that I had missed on my last trip with him. Another excellent trip, with very well located hotels and a fun experience. Hoping to do a Canadian WWI & WWII tour with Wright Europe very soon.
