Join a two hour tour exploring the Dutch Golden Age through the eyes of the most fabulous paintings of the Dutch Masters such as Rembrandt, Vermeer, Frans Hals or Jan Steen. By giving historical background information and explaining also the lives of different painters we will be able to sketch a total picture of this incredible century during which Amsterdam from a small fishing village became a world player pioneering international trade and establishing new world order based on new values for a "New World". This exhilarating journey will make the 17th century come alive and speak to you in the way in which it is still relevant today.
This is the 10th Explore holiday, we have covered places like Peru, Chile, Bolivia, Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Vietnam, Cambodia, Cuba, India and this just covers 5 holidays.
These are not for everyone, as some are very full on, but the two Balkan trips were easy, although some of this group had not read the itinerary properly and this was a bit too much for them!
The Cuba and South America were what I call, sanitised back packing, as sleeping out in the open and you can have very early starts, around 4 am and late finishes.
However, you really see the place and interact with the local people. This is why we love Explore tours.
If you want total comfort and not really interact, then Saga or like is for you, as you do have to rough it on some trips.
One trip in particular was India, two days going up the Ganges on a wooded raft, inches from the water and sleeping on the bank at night with the snakes and wild dogs, just an amazing experience, and you know you are alive!
Another was in the jungle of Cuba, no tent, just under the stars, but I did get attacked by the smallest ants in the night, but still a fantastic experience, one I won’t forget!
Our tour guides have all been very good, but on this trip, Constantin went beyond the norm.
The only criticism on this trip was no local experts and Constantin had to do it all, which makes it very difficult for him to become an expert in every area, town etc.

What a wonderful e-bike and barge tour from Paris to Epernay. Highly recommend. The conduct of this tour was professional in every way. The scenery so beautiful, the guides so knowledgeable and expert in their roles and the Zwaantze barge itself a wonderful barge to call home for such a tour ably managed by the captain Bart and his team. We loved the experience. Also second tour we have been on the Zwaantze as we did the Bruges to Amsterdam bike and Barge tour in 2018. These tours are wonderful ways to travel and enjoy being active at the same time.

Our recent bike trip from Venice to Florence was terrific. Viewing the countryside by bike was fun. Each days ride was different. I thought day 2 was the hardest. My sit bones were very sore despite the bike shorts. it was a bumpy gravel long ride. Day 3 and on out got easier.

The hotels were well chosen and offered really good food. It's important to realize that much of the travel is not prearranged, but we were not high season so were able to book everything we needed. It would be better to arrive from Oslo than Bergen.
All the wintery wonder of the full Austrian trip, packed into 5 mind-blowing days. You’ll shred the slopes, sample the delicacies and keep it cosy at the Gasthof, all the while becoming BFF’s with your very own ski-squad. What else could you possibly want?

Thank you!
We really enjoyed our tour with
Europamundo although the weather is some countries are not so good we have been satisfied. Our tour guide, Senor Javier handled us excellently. I been a tour guide and travelled to some countries but I can say he is the best tour guide Ive ever experienced. I want to commend the way he handles himself and the needs of the passengers. I wish all the tour guides have the same passion and love in their job as Javier do.
Thank you for making our vacation a memorable one. I will definitely recommend your company to our friends and relatives.
God Bless you all
