Just Released: Worldwide Autumn, Winter, Spring Trips
The Trafalgar Difference
Trafalgar offers a wider range of vacation types and vacation destinations than any other guided tour operator, allowing you to choose exactly the vacation you want. On a Trafalgar tour, you’ll be treated like a VIP, treated to exclusive access and services and staying at a range of fine, hand-picked hotels, often boutique or local ones.
Many companies claim they have special access and features you can’t find anywhere else; Trafalgar truly lives up to that claim, with a wide network of local connections with people like chefs, farmers, historians, and artisans. Every one of their tours contains a chance for you to meet these people and have specialized, custom experiences that wouldn’t be possible on your own or with a less well-connected company.

My friends and I recently had the opportunity to take part in Trafalgar’s Magic & Make Believe Family Experience this past summer, which is a 9 day program focusing on London and Paris. This tour is ideal for families who want to experience the main sights these two royal cities have to offer with their young ones during a short time frame.
My friends and I were met by a Trafalgar representative at the London Heathrow Airport and transferred to our centrally located hotel, the Thistle Marble Arch. If first impressions mean anything nowadays, I can tell you that this hotel property had all the qualities of a distinguished regal hotel accommodation. Located right off the main shopping strip of Oxford Street, the Thistle Marble Arch Hotel was within a few minutes’ walk to Hyde Park where we visited Speaker’s Corner and the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial fountain. A great benefit of this hotel was its proximity to the Marble Arch tube station which we took to get just about anywhere we wanted to be within London.
Trafalgar Family Experiences
Many vacation packages and cruises are designed for individuals or couples. One or two adults have a lot more autonomy and freedom as to where to go and what to do on a vacation, not to mention what they’re physically capable of on something like an adventure tour.
Some of us are parents, though, and we have to plan our vacations around our children’s needs. We can’t necessarily leave our children behind when we want to vacation: We may not have anyone who’s able (or willing) to take care of them for that length of time; we may spend too much time worrying about them if they’re not with us; we may want to bring them along and build experiences and memories together.
Trafalgar Tours offers a line of vacations that can meet all our needs.
How to Visit Europe Affordably
Most people tend to plan their vacations in the summer. It’s pretty common for a good reason: The weather is nice, the kids (if they have any) are out of school, and most work and business schedules are designed to accommodate a summer vacation.
But if you want a different experience on your trip next year, you might consider visiting Europe during another season. Here are some of the benefits of doing so:
- Cost. Since summer vacations are so popular, and summer is the only time many people can take a vacation, these trips are often expensive. This is because many travel companies, hotels, and other tourist attractions know this, and they raise their rates accordingly. If they can still keep their bookings full this way, why not? But in the off-seasons, many of these hotels and agencies that are booked solid in the summer will find themselves nearly empty. They’ll be willing to offer great deals to savvy tourists just to keep some steady money coming in for their businesses. If you take a vacation during an uncommon time of the year for vacations, you can really save big.
- The unique features of each season. I’ll get into more detail in a bit, but I’m sure you can imagine what I’m talking about. Europe has seasons just like the rest of the world. Plants start growing and flowers bloom in the spring. The fall offers cool weather and autumnal festivals, including, of course, Oktoberfest. Winter offers the gorgeous sights of snow-covered mountains, and winter sports such as skiing and ice skating.
Here are a few travel packages from our partners that offer the chance to see the unique features Europe offers in each season of the year, all at an affordable price.Continue reading
