Goofs
When Charlie (Ian McShane) is showing his charges the spot marked "Scaffold" where Henry VIII had two of his wives executed, Charlie walks into the shot just before it cuts to a montage of other British images. His comments about the execution of Henry's wives initially match Charlie's lip movements. But as a voiceover of Peggy Cass posing a question intervenes, Charlie keeps talking, but no sound is heard coming from his mouth for the balance of the shot.

Quotes
Charlie Cartwright: [Talking to the tour group on the bus] This tiny country of Holland is famous for Rembrandt, the tulip, the Edam cheese... also for Van Gogh, Dutch chocolate, Dutch beer, Dutch cleanser, the Dutch treat, the Dutch door, the Dutch uncle... In fact, folks, you're in Dutch!

Crazy credits
"The End" title card initially looks like just any other title card. However, the camera zooms out and reveals that it is a picture hanging on a wall. The character played by Aubrey Morris (the kleptomaniac) enters and removes it from the wall, trying conspicuously to hide it in his coat. He walks off and the screen fades out.

Featured review

Others have met (and deserved?) Charlie's fate.

This movie is even more enjoyable for people who have been on a very similar trip, as I did in 1966, with Overland; however, it took five days from Belgium to Rome. I am a believer in happy endings, but Charlie ended up being treated the same way as he treated countless girls. I felt for him, because I also fell for a girl on the bus, but having previously also treated girls the same way, I paid the price, like Charlie. The characters in the movie reminded me of the characters on my bus. There is a very impressive list of character actors and guest stars which proves that the salaries then were far more reasonable than they are today. They don't make comedies like this anymore, unfortunately.
