Trip Overview
Worth noting…
The Venice Gondola Ride and Budapest Dinner Cruise will float from Included Experiences into Optional Activities in 2024. Meaning: more free time to do what YOU want. Joining us on our 8 September departure? On Day 8 and 9 we’ll be staying in glitzy Marseille (French Riviera) rather than Nice (or visiting Monaco).

London – Paris (France)
2Rise and shine! We’re hitting the road early to jump across the Channel. The home of Coco Chanel, the Mona Lisa and the world’s best pastries – Paris deserves its rep as the European capital for all things haute couture, culture and drool-worthy food. Get to know the City of Lights better with a drive around the must-sees. And for dinner? The choice is yours, but your Trip Leader’s got all the hot tips – just ask. Bon appétit!

3This is your day to simply do you. Create a solid dent in your bucket list with a visit to the Louvre (book your tickets in advance!) and the Musée d'Orsay. Hunt down the best patisseries in town (ask your Trip Leader for recommendations). Get lost amongst the shelves of history at Shakespeare and Co. Bookshop. Flash some plastic along the Champs Elysées. Or inject some feel-good vibes at the I Love You Wall. Not a walker? Work those thighs on an optional bike tour. Or get an alternate view of the City of Love with a river cruise down the Seine. Tonight, go all-out with an optional evening at the cabaret. Think: bright lights, OTT costumes and death-defying acrobatics.

Paris – Loire Valley – Bordeaux
4Don’t drink your vino out of a cask? You’re gonna love our next stop. Glue your nose to the window and watch rows of centuries-old grapevines rush past as we make our way through the Loire Valley. First stop? The ultra-boujee Château de Chambord. Supposedly designed by Leonardo da Vinci himself – if you want, there’s time to explore the 60 opulently decorated rooms, surrounding gardens (as big as inner-city Paris) and climb the mind-boggling double helix staircase. This place will have you feeling like French royalty (minus the ridiculous hairstyles). Later, we’ll make tracks to Bordeaux and get the run around this 1200-year-old city with our expert Trip Leader. Then, the rest is up to you. Our suggestion? Buy some local cheese, a bottle of the good stuff and picnic like a true Frenchman. Just make sure you leave room for desert – you’re going to want to try a canelé (can-eh-lay). Trust us.

Then: we’ll set our sights on Carcassonne. If you’ve ever played the board game, you’ll know that the walled citadel of Carcassonne is as medieval as it gets. Get your bearings on a stroll with your Trip Leader – ticking off the Château Comtal, Basilica of Saints Nazarius and fortifications of the ancient city. Tonight, we’ll rendezvous back at the hotel for a group dinner. This day in one word? Extraordinaire.

Get a feel for Barça on a driving tour – ticking off the likes of Olympic Park, Plaça d'Espanya, the National Museum and Montjuïc Hill.

7Time to do your own spontaneous-this-is-what-I-came-for thing, amigos. But if you need some suggestions, we’ve got your back. Park Güell and Sagrada Familia are straight-up must-sees. BUT don’t think you can just stroll up in there – you’re gonna’ need to book tix online first. Then: explore the craziness that is Las Ramblas, head into the National Museum for an education in over a thousand years of art or get lost amongst the maze of winding alleys in the Gothic Quarter. Lose yourself, find yourself, then grab a beer at Els Quatre Gats. Need some time out from all the adventuring? Head to Barceloneta Beach for a swim. Later, there’s an optional show on the cards at the oldest flamenco tablaos in Barcelona.

Today, we’re following the Mediterranean coast to Nice, the capital of the glamorous French Riviera. Get the run about town with our in-the-know Trip Leader before having the rest of the afternoon to do you! Indulge in a bit of celeb spotting. Head to the beach for a dip. Or find a local haunt for some seriously good seafood. Tonight, sit back and enjoy those relaxed coastal vibes. This is what you came for.

The choice is yours. Later: we’ll turn it up a notch with a visit to Monaco. Home of the Grand Prix and the Monte Carlo Casino, we’ll see how the 1% live on a walking tour (hint: it involves Ferraris and bathing in caviar). Then, ogle at the superyachts and their perfectly manicured owners along the waterfront. Or hit the tables and make it rain (or not).

French Riviera – Swiss Alps (Switzerland)
10If the Swiss Alps had a Tinder bio it would read: fun-filled outdoor enthusiast – looking for a fellow adrenaline junkie to share adventures with. Swiping right? Hell yes. Warm up those vocal cords, we’ll be busting out some bangers on the ride through Provence into the mountains. Cue the fairytale villages of your imagination – the oh-so-quaint Engelberg will be our base for the next two nights. Later, we’ll get stuck into a group dinner before heading to the hotel bar or relaxing in the fresh alpine air.

Swiss Alps
11This is your day. So, enjoy it your way. Hiking. Biking. Thrill-seeking. It’s all here. You could take the revolving gondola to the top of Mt Titlis for all the epic views (without the effort). Or slip on your Birks and head into town in search of the world's best hot chocolate and cheese fondue – unless you’re lactose intolerant (obvs). Whatever you choose, you’re going to have views for days. After grabbing dinner, chill back at your pad or hit the town with the gang. The choice is alllll yours.

12Buy that mini-fondue set for mum and wave goodbye to the Alps – we’re heading to that famous sinking city today. After checking in at the hotel, it’s time to see what all the fuss is about. Acquaint yourself with the who's who of Venice's usual suspects on a walking tour – ticking off the likes of St Mark's Square, Doge’s Palace and Accademia Bridge. And then – this beautifully romantic city is yours for the taking. Our suggestion? Enjoy a spritz overlooking one of Venice’s fuchsia-pink sunsets. Or hunt down a hidden gem for a delicious carb-laden Italian meal. What are you going to try first? Order two.

13Time to see what all the fuss is about. Centuries-old architecture. Inventive cuisine. And a bucket-load of culture. Venice is just begging to be explored. After an included gondola ride along the Grand Canal, you’ve got the whole day to do just that. Need suggestions? Insider tip: spend some time seeking out the out-of-this-world Libreria Acqua Alta bookshop or head off the tourist trail with a trip to Giudecca Island. Or forget all the above and hunt down the perfect gelato. Go wandering. Chat to the locals. Get lost in the maze of canals and piazzas. Watch the sun go down with the gang. That’s what makes the memories.

Before dinner tonight, take a stroll along the Arno River at sunset for those this-is-what-I-came-for-vibes. Then: did someone say karaoke? If you’re up for it, join the gang in a battle of the classics at a local bar. Or hunt down a gelateria for a scoop (or two) of the good stuff. What’ll it be? Salted caramel? Lavender? White chocolate? Cinnamon? Must. Try. Them. ALL.

15Florence has more story lines than Game of Thrones, more culture than a Fitzroy hipster AND it gave the world David. Delve deeper into this incredible city on a walking tour with a local guide. Later, bella Roma is calling our name. Once we arrive, prepare yourself for a walking tour to end all walking tours. We’re talking a solid few hours of non-stop sights, off-the-tourist-trail hidden gems and a run-down of almost 3000 years of history. We’ll pass by the Pantheon, throw our two cents in the Trevi Fountain, (won’t) sit on the Spanish Steps and wind things up under the shadow of the mighty Colosseum. Epic doesn’t even cut it. Tonight, you’re in Disneyland for foodies – go get it.

16You’ve read Eat. Pray. Love. (or been made to watch the movie) – now, it’s time to make like Julia Roberts and put this city to the test. You have 48 hours of freedom to explore. Play ‘I-spy’ with two-and-a-half millennia worth of history on a guided tour (think Vatican City and the Colosseum). Head up Capitoline Hill for awesome views. Grab a bite at Lost Food Factory (arguably one of the best sandwich spots in town). Or do as the locals do and indulge in a little dolce far niente (delicious idleness) at a local cafe or piazza. Tonight, shake out those fat pants for round two. Ask your Trip Leader where to find the best cacio e pepe – trust us, you won’t be disappointed.

17Vespas. Espresso. Two-cheek kisses. Aggressive hand gestures. And pizza the way it's supposed to taste. Here’s another free day we prepared earlier. Don’t just skim the surface, experience every moment to the fullest. History buffs should arrange a day trip to Pompeii. Or head to the Knights of Malta Keyhole to see an alternative view of the city. Battle the lunchtime rush for a slice at Pizzarium Bonci. Shop till you drop on Via Condotti. Take some time to relax with a picnic at Villa Borghese Park. Thought you’d tried all the gelato flavours? Head to Fatamorgana – and think again.

Or go west and hit up Palaiokastritsa for beaches so remote they’re almost private. This is your last night here, so gather the gang for gyros and sunset bíras on the beachfront.

But first: a quick stop in Budva – the ‘Miami of Montenegro’. Three countries in one day? Only with us. This afternoon, we’ll take a wander around Dubrovnik's tiny cobblestone streets with a local guide – before tucking into dinner at a local haunt. Later: gather the gang and hit the d-floor at a nightclub in a 16th-century fortress. Or grab some R&R back at the hotel. You do you.

Rather take to the water? Sign up to a sea kayaking excursion – swim stops at the island of Lokrum included. Get your fix of awesome views with a stroll along the ancient city walls or take the cable car up Mt Srd. Later, you can head to Bu~a Bar for relaxed cliffside bevvies at sunset. Or find a local wine bar to sample Croatia’s delicious grape-juice. Have you tried peka yet? Go. Now.

Tonight, hang with the hipsters and drink pálinka (fruit brandy) at one of the original ruin bars. Maybe even sample a pickled carrot or two (random? yep, but they’re a thing).

Prepare to have your heart captured as we drive by the likes of the Opera House, Hofburg Palace, Museum Quarter and Ringstrasse. We’ll have a poke around Princess Sissi’s opulent gardens at the Schönbrunn Palace – with enough time to check out her extravagant decorating too, if you fancy it. Then: the afternoon is yours. Explore the Museum Quarter in depth. Head to Cafe Central for the most boujee afternoon tea you’ve ever had.

We'll drive you around to see the main sights including (what's left of) the Berlin Wall, the Reichstag, Checkpoint Charlie and Brandenburg Gate. After our group dinner, see if this city’s nightlife really lives up to the hype. Or just relax on a sunny terrace with a bevvie or two – Germany is the OG of beer gardens, after all.

Explore Museum Island. Take a ride in a Trabi and see why it’s Germany’s best-loved car. Or stop by the Tiergarten park for chill vibes (and naked sunbathing, if that’s your bag).

Anonymous September 2023
This trip was made only by the people. The tour guide was less than impressive (didn’t seem confident or sufficient in ability in role). We were constantly hit with traffic delays (which is not their fault however it was Europe in summer…surely this could have been predicted a bit better and leaving times adjusted). The bus promised wifi and a working toilet - both which were not available. The optional extras were honestly awful. The only redeeming one that felt like it wasn’t a scam was kayaking in Dubrovnik. Some of the accomodation was absolutely awful- and always very far from town centre. Again, I know that this was to save money…but we were constantly left to organise Ubers or trains at a great cost. The bus driver should have provided drop in and pick up options. Overall, less than impressed.

Anonymous September 2023
Hostels would be of better quality than the ‘hotels’ provided. The accommodation and included extras are well below sun standard. Up to 15 hours spent on the tour bus per day with no access to the onboard toilet and no wifi as promised. The tour guide was completely inexperienced and did not want to be there.
