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 trip was a once in a lifetime, bucket list trip. We wanted to see Europe and found this tour to be exceptional. Our Travel Director - *personal info removed by Feefo* ensured that everything ran smoothly and efficiently. His vast experience allowed him to plan and revise plans to maximize our exposure to each of the areas through which we were travelling. His incredible knowledge of the areas and his entertaining stories and videos provided the background knowledge we needed to more fully appreciate the regions that we were in. His "little surprises" such as licorice, chocolates, Schnapps and Limoncello were the cherry on top of fabulous excursions, that solidified memories, as we left and embarked on our next adventure.
We also appreciated the flexibility of the tour to allow us to explore additional areas of interest of the group along the way e.g., touring Notre Dame, early one morning, before we moved on.
*personal info removed by Feefo* made a point of getting to know everyone individually and his personal touches helped each of us to maximize our enjoyment and comfort throughout the trip. He personalized the travel music and movies to suit his riders, often highlighting music from the areas of the world from wens we were from. The morning routines of introducing the travellers at the front and our morning tune - On the Road Again, will forever be a favourite and a reminder of the fun we had on the Coach no matter how long we were travelling that day.
Words do not do this experience justice. Trafalgar's motto of Making Travel Matter, added a depth to many of the experiences, as we experienced Family run businesses and learned how they contribute and support the local economy above and beyond the aspect of tourism.
I would highly recommend this tour and want to thank our
Travel Director, *personal info removed by Feefo* for making our first trip to Europe a trip we will remember fondly forever.
Rhi Smith did a fantastic job as tour director and Domenico was a great amazing driver.
Very busy tour but covered so much and learnt so much about each country
Coast to coast, city to city, the European Quest is el perfecto! Balancing everything we love about being in Europe. Stunning days spent on the coast of San Sebastian, cultured nights bar hopping in Prague, and enough time in Italy to leave you up to your eyebrows in pizza.
Overall we had a wonderful time. We are looking at other itineraries.
But I have some suggestions. It would be nice to have a meet and greet at the first dinner. To state our names and where we are from etc. so it doesn't take a week to know everyone's name.
I thought the first and last day were very confusing. We didn't have clear direction where to go and where to meet and what the plan was.
I wish we had more information about the additional events prior to booking them like where, what, and menus. Some menus we would have passed on.
East meets West on this 10 day trip through the distinctly cool, modern vibes & rich history of Europe's capital cities and lesser-known gems. From the one & only Berlin alongside Prague, Amsterdam, Salzburg, Verona, Venice, Rome & more, we’ll flutter from tasting locally-distilled schnaps at an alpine farm, to personal guided tours through royal castles, to private cruises along the iconic canals & islands of Venice, to nights out in eclectic clubs filled with hipster locals, staying in centrally located hostels all the way.
The perfect mix of seasides and cities, the Barcelona to London Quest kicks off in Barcelona, skirting the Mediterranean Sea before heading up through the middle of Italy and on to Eastern Europe, winding up in London after a perfectly balanced adventure.
With almost 200 countries in the world to tick off your list, time is precious. Smashing 11 in one trip should really get things moving. Eat Trdelnik in Prague, soak in thermal baths in Budapest & party round the clock in Berlin. Cities, culture, history & scenery are on the cards for the Trail to Rome.
From memorable sights to unforgettable nights, this is the trip to open your eyes to all aspects of Europe. Sip hot chocolate in front of alpine views and glow from head to toe with a warming Gluhwein in historic German cities. From laidback Dutch cafe culture via the vibes of Eastern Europe to the timeless beauty of Italy, plus food, fun & new friends along the way, this is 28 days of experiences to last a lifetime.
France, Spain and Italy - a trio like no other. 16 days in perhaps the most alluring region of Europe will have you feeling right at home. Wine regions, boats to small islands and 9 World Heritage Sites will leave you hands down smitten.
