What can you do in a month? Oh you know, just see some of the absolute best parts of Europe on a 30-day, hostel-based adventure from Amsterdam to Corfu, that’s all. Sound good to you? Then let’s get going. On the first leg of your trip, you’ll visit Berlin before heading to Prague, Vienna, and Salzburg, soaking up art, architecture, and the best views ever along the way. Next up, the Alps! Experience the colourful charm of Innsbruck and the baffling beauty of Lake Misurina, then venture further into Italy for flavour-filled days in Rome, Florence, and Tuscany. Croatia comes after, including a stop in Dubrovnik (the real-life King’s Landing) before road tripping into Montenegro and Albania for a tour of a medieval fortress and beachfront hangouts. Finally, catch the ferry to Corfu for one epic final day.
