Europe Travel Guide

Europe Tours Highlights

  • Enjoy Europe's breathtaking scenery from the comfort of a luxury motorcoach.
  • Wander the backstreets of Venice and lose yourself in the magical atmosphere.
  • Ascend the Eiffel Tower for panoramic city views.
  • Be mesmerized by the breathtaking beauty of the Swiss alps.
  • Marvel at the magnificent Sistine Chapel in Vatican City.
  • Feast on world-famous art in romantic Florence.
  • Discover ancient icons like the Colosseum and Pantheon in Rome.
  • Explore Amsterdam's treasure-packed museums.
  • Feel like a movie star on the glamorous Champs-Elysees in Paris.
  • Sample some of the world's best wines in picturesque vineyards.

Europe Tours Travel Tips

  • Don't change your currency at the airport. Wait until you get into the city where you'll get better exchange rates. 
  • Most places accept credit/debit cards but make sure to carry some cash because smaller establishments may not take cards.
  • There's no universal mobile SIM card that's good for the whole of Europe. You might be better off activating international roaming before you leave home. 
  • Not everyone speaks English in Europe. Learn a few phrases in the native languages. It's a great way to make friends with the locals.
  • Ditch the swanky stores, instead explore local markets. You'll save money and pick up unique souvenirs. 
  • Eat at local bistros and roadside cafes for authentic cuisine that doesn't cost the earth.
  • Join walking tours. Some of them are free and they're the best way to learn the secrets of a city.
  • If your Europe tour doesn't include an attraction you absolutely want to see, book tickets online to avoid long queues.
  • Bring comfortable walking shoes. There's a lot of exploring to do in Europe.
  • European restaurants don't usually offer free water and bread. You might even pay a per-head cover charge (it's called "pane e coperto" in Italy).

Europe Tours Things To Do

  • Ride an Alpine Train in Switzerland
    Ride an Alpine Train in Switzerland

    The Swiss are big on trains, which is great for visitors. Panoramic trains are a feast for the senses with spectacular scenery as you chug past lakes and high mountain passes. For some old-world charm, there's even a cogwheel steam railway. And if you've got little ones in tow, the Chocolate Train from Montreux is a delight.

    Best Time to Visit

    The shoulder seasons (April-May and September-October) are the best time to visit Switzerland. The weather is great and there aren't too many tourists. 

     

    You Should Know

    The Swiss Travel Pass will save you tons of money. It allows unlimited travel by bus, boat, and train, including premium panorama trains, unlimited use of public transport in more than 90 Swiss towns and cities, and free admission to more than 500 museums.

  • Go Island Hopping in Greece
    Go Island Hopping in Greece

    An extraordinarily diverse array of Greek islands dots the Aegean Sea, just begging to be explored. From the cosmopolitan and luxurious to the pure and pristine, there's something for everyone. The stunning views of Santorini and the stylish nightlife of Mykonos are tourist magnets, but less popular islands like Ios and Naxos are equally wonderful. 

    Best Time to Visit

    Try going in June or September when the weather and sea temperature are perfect and the islands are not overrun with tourists. 

     

    You Should Know

    There are ferry connections between most islands within an island group, but there may not be ferries between every Greek Island. To get from one island to another, you may have to do a bit of planning.

  • Take a Walking Tour of Florence
    Take a Walking Tour of Florence

    If there's one destination in Europe that's worth exploring on foot, it's Florence. The Cradle of the Renaissance, Florence oozes romance and charm. Discover the spectacular palaces, museums, and art galleries in the city center or head to the quiet haven of the cypress-lined Boboli Gardens. And if you're up for a climb, the San Miniato al Monte Church has the absolute best views of Florence. Later, reward yourself with a plate of fresh pasta in the Tuscan capital.

    Best Time to Visit

    Between May and September, the weather is warm, there's open-air dining, and a plethora of art festivals, but unfortunately it also brings swarms of tourists.

  • Picnic in a London Park
    Picnic in a London Park

    In a city that's famous for its royal parks, there's no better way to spend an afternoon than picnicking in one of its green spaces. You don't have to sit around soaking up the London sun. The renowned Regent's Park has a boating lake, a rose garden, and the ZSL London Zoo. Climb nearby Primrose Hill in time for sunset and watch the sky change color over landmarks like St. Paul's Cathedral, Canary Wharf, and the Millennium Wheel, a view that sure to move you.

    Best Time to Visit

    Time your visit to London for the spring (March through May) when the weather is mild and the parks are blooming. Summer is great, but the hotel prices reflect the tourist surge.

  • Explore Amsterdam on Two Wheels
    Explore Amsterdam on Two Wheels

    For Amsterdam's residents, getting around on bicycles is a way of life. For tourists, it's a great way to explore the city at a leisurely pace. Rent a bike and ride along the city's famous canals for glimpses of 17th-century canal houses that line the waterways. Or head over to the serene Vondelpark, a beautiful 120-acre oasis just south of Leidseplein, near the Rijksmuseum.

    Best Time to Visit

    Go in April/May or September/October to enjoy nice weather while avoiding the summertime high tourist season.

     

    You Should Know

    Don't stop in the middle of bike lanes. Use your hands to signal turns when you're riding on the road. If you forget, the locals will politely remind you of the rules.

  • Drink Fine Wine in Paris
    Drink Fine Wine in Paris

    What better place to sample world-famous French wines than in the country's elegant capital? Linger over a bottle with a friend or lover at the edge of Canal St Martin on a warm summer evening. Mix with the boho-chic crowd in this artsy area that is full of exciting restaurants and shops. Later, enjoy a leisurely stroll and admire the graffiti and street art.

    Best Time to Visit

    Between June and August, the weather in Paris is nothing short of perfect with average highs in the 70s and long days of sunshine.

     

    You Should Know

    The price of the wine in Paris is not necessarily indicative of the quality. Some wines are expensive only because people think a more expensive bottle is a better wine. Choose a mid-priced bottle from the menu. In supermarkets, keep an eye out for bottles marked R, which indicates the wine was bottled, cultivated, and fermented by one person, a fool-proof way to pick a good wine.

  • Admire the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City
    Admire the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City

    One of the greatest art treasures of the world, the Sistine Chapel is an awe-inspiring place of worship in the Apostolic Palace, the pope's residence in Vatican City. The ceiling, covered entirely in frescos, is regarded as Michelangelo's masterpiece and is a bucket list item. Once you look up, the crowd will fade away and you'll get lost in the astounding details of the celestial paintings.

    Best Time to Visit

    The summer season is incredibly busy and the Vatican is packed with tourists. It's best to join a skip-the-line tour for both the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel.

     

    You Should Know

    Knees and shoulders should be covered before entering the Sistine Chapel. You're expected to remain quiet inside the chapel which is a place of worship. Photography is not permitted in the Sistine Chapel because flashlights can damage the paintings. 

  • Discover Beautiful Edinburgh
    Discover Beautiful Edinburgh

    Dominated by the imposing Edinburgh Castle, the Scottish capital is one of Europe's most photogenic cities, draped over seven hills and overlooking the North Sea. Each summer, Edinburgh hosts some of the world's biggest art festivals, but it's also a great place for a city break. Drink the night away in one of the city's many unpretentious pubs, stroll in the scenic Princes Street Gardens, or explore Royal Mile, Edinburgh's cultural and historical playground.

    Best Time to Visit

    Between June and August, temperatures are a balmy 65 degrees, but this is also the city's busiest tourist season.

     

    You Should Know

    During peak festival season (August), plan in advance and book as much of your visit as possible. This includes restaurant reservations, unless you want to have a "hangry" meltdown at 10 pm on the Royal Mile when you're unable to get dinner!

Europe Tour Packages

Europe is enormous and it's difficult to pinpoint one time that's best to visit the whole continent. With so much to see and do, there's something for everyone throughout the year. 

  • January – February – March

    This is a great time to visit Europe if you love winter sports. The larger European cities are very quiet, no crowds at all, but the weather can be cold, wet, and windy. Northern Europe is avoidable in this season as temperatures are well below freezing.

  • April – May – June

    The weather starts to improve across Europe and tourist season kicks off. Most destinations are still quiet (except on public holidays like Easter). It's a great time to visit Eastern Europe which is still undiscovered by large tourist crowds. Also, June is perfect for Nordic countries.

  • July – August – September

    These are Europe's warmest months, and not surprisingly, super peak tourist season. Check for any large festivals or tournaments before booking your vacation, as these can send hotel and flight prices skyrocketing. In September, the crowds thin out somewhat, especially in the Nordics, Baltics, and Eastern Europe, although major cities continue to be busy.

  • October – November – December

    October may well be the perfect month to tour Europe with smaller crowds and still great weather. Unpredictable weather makes November and December the slowest travel months in Europe. However, destinations famous for Christmas markets ( Germany, Austria) have a heartwarming atmosphere. Also, ski season starts and Christmastime can be busy in the larger resorts.
