Best European tour companies and operators

If you have always fancied spending some time travelling around Europe in a group but have been put off by the busy schedules that most coach trips involve, have a look at the itineraries we have to offer and you might change your mind. We cater specifically to holidaymakers from Australia and New Zealand, which means we offer a laid back experience with plenty of time to explore each destination in the company of others or by yourselves. With small group sizes and from 2 to 5 nights at each stop, our holidays are designed to give you a real break and allow you to enjoy a relaxed pace of life whilst discovering new cities and making new friends. Among our most popular trips are our German tours that take in the Black Forest, Bavaria and the Tyrol; British holidays that include stops at Bath, Stratford-Upon-Avon and the beautiful Lake District; and trips across France stopping off to explore famous winemaking regions such as Burgundy and Bordeaux. Our website features detailed itineraries for these breaks and anybody who is interested in guided European travel tours on a comfortable bus with small groups can request a colour brochure if they wish.

Genuinely Inclusive, No Hidden Optional Extras

One of the things that detracts from organised holidays in Europe is that many companies charge their clients extra fees for excursions and meals, which they do not make clear beforehand. We feel that this often spoils what could otherwise be a great trip and therefore our prices are genuinely inclusive. All those special meals, accommodation, entrance fees and sightseeing tours for the various places of interest along the way and even your end of tour tips to your tour manager and driver are part of the package that you pay for so you can just sit back and enjoy the ride once we are underway. Whether you would like to experience the magnificent scenery of the Black Forest, Germany in the company of likeminded individuals or have always fancied exploring Austria but never knew where to start, we can help. Because our Summer group tours usually consist of 30 people or less we are able to choose hotels with character that are not practical for larger groups. The smaller numbers mean that clients do not feel like they are being herded from one place to another and will have plenty of time to enjoy the best European package tours 2012 has to offer, including summer trips to Italy for couples and singles.
