- How many years have you been driving together as a team? We are in our second year.

- What is your favourite country, destination, or tour you've driven to? I'm a big fan of Italy, and especially the Italian Lakes.

- What's your favourite memory from a past tour? There are a lot to choose from, but riding on the Swiss Glacier Express over Christmas was absolutely breathtaking. The scenery was as if it was pulled from a postcard! Amazing.
- Do you have any personal touches that make your coach feel welcoming? We like to collect stickers from all the different places that we travel to on our tours. With our coach being new, we've had to start building our sticker collection all over again!
- If you could provide a top travel tip for our passengers, what would that be? Do your research before booking! We want you to enjoy your holidays with us and make the most of it. If you're unsure whether something will be suitable for you, it's always best to find out before you travel! Most Leger drivers will be happy to give you their honest opinion. Onboard, I suggest bringing things that will keep you comfy and entertained. Some journeys are very long, but ultimately worth it!
- Is there anything else you would like to share with us about the tours you do? We always like to make sure everyone that travels with us is happy and well looked after. If you have any questions before you travel with us, we can always be contacted via our Facebook page: Travelling Europe in Style with Mark & Nick.
