Best bang for your buck. The only way to see as much of Europe as we did in 18 days. Often times you do not have very much time in certain cities/towns, but the travel directors do their best to make sure you hit the highlights and have a good experience. You just have to know going in that this is an introductory trip to all the wonders of Europe. That being said, we had a fantastic time. No real complaints other than feeling short on time in some locations,, as expected. Would highly recommend for someone’s first experience in Europe and I even enjoyed it as a repeat traveler as this tour went to some unique places such as Saint Paul de Vence and Colmar. Optional excursions were also all excellent and included meals at hotels were surprisingly good.

Wonderful trip! I strongly recommend several of the Optional Experiences to make the most of your time, including the sunset boat trip in Paris (you see the Eiffel Tower aglow!), walking tour of Hidden Venice, and walking tour of the Colosseum in Rome.
Be prepared to walk a lot (I hit 10-14k steps most days!) Be prepared for early mornings.
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the contrast of a few days in the Black forest and then the amazing Towns of the Alsace. The riding was well paced through beautiful country, with the occasional tough hill to keep you honest. Hotels on the whole were good choices with friendly staff. The bikes were ideal for the terrain.

Although we were a bit apprehensive about a self guided tour - we were very pleased that everything worked out. Loved the places we visited and the variety of accommodation. It was a great adventure.
Think just over a week isn't enough to get a good look at Europe? The London to Barcelona Quest is here to prove you wrong. Experience the contrast of the bustling city of Barcelona to the wine region of Bordeaux & the seaside San Sebastian to the monuments & museums of Paris. When you uncover France & Spain, you've truly entered the world of Europe.

This is a high quality three-day private guided trip for two to six people that will take you across historic sites, buildings, museums, and castles in France. The main highlights of the tour include Mont Saint-Michel, D-Day landing sites in Normandy, and three top castles of the Loire Valley. We will also go on city sightseeing tours of Normandy's capital Rouen and the medieval habor city of Honfleur.
The trip has been designed to offer insights into French architecture, culture and history. Learn more about French Renaissance architecture as you take a guided tour of three top Loire Valley castles: Chambord, Amboise and Chenonceau. In Normandy, explore the region's World War II history as you visit the D-Day landing sites, Normandy American Cemetery and Mémorial de Caen, among other war sites.
We will be traveling in a comfortable vehicle (Mercedes E220 business class car for 2–3 people or Mercedes minivan for 3–7) that travels faster than bus, giving us more time to explore various sights and attractions. We can also customize the trip based on your personal preferences.
Please do not wait to take this trip!!!!
It was wonderful and our guide and driver were spectacular. I only wished I did it 10 years earlier.
Thank you, thank you.

I had an excellent ebike which made this trip pleasurable. The canal path is rough and although it is flat I wouldn't recommend it for a first timer. Our guide Erwin was personable and knowledgeable. Having an ebike made riding in the extreme winds and the optional ride possible for me. I strongly recommend Explore provide helmets and water bottles as other tours do. It takes up so much space when you are not returning home after a tour.
