About this Itinerary:

​

Join us as we span 1,300 miles of Continental Europe’s most culturally-iconic cities and regions, each equally rich in history, art, and enduring charm. You'll begin in your adventure in Rome, an Eternal City of ancient ruins, Renaissance masterpieces, and centuries-old grand piazzas. Next, you'll visit the serene medieval township of Assisi, the hilltop birthplace of St. Francis, then continue on to Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance, where world-renowned art and architecture pair to reflect centuries of creativity and innovation. You'll stand in awe before the fabled Leaning Tower of Pisa, then bask on the glamorous, sun-soaked beaches of the French Riviera. Next, you'll cross into Spain and stop in vibrant Barcelona, where Gaudí’s whimsical designs and lively street life offer a captivating blend of tradition and modernity. Your tour will conclude in the energetic Spanish capital of Madrid, with its unparalleled fusion of royal palaces, grand boulevards, and world-class museums. Experience the essence of Europe in one incredible sweep, capturing both the spirit and splendor of Mediterranean heritage and charm.

​

Anyone can see the world, you're going to experience it!

​

Clearly, your tour includes visits to the places you’ve learned about. That’s a given. But it’s so much more than that. Immersing yourself in new cultures – surrounded by the people, the language, the food, the way of life – creates inspirational moments that can’t be listed in an itinerary. They can only be experienced.

​

And the experience begins long before you get your passport stamped and meet your Tour Director in your arrival city. It begins the moment you decide to go. Whether it’s connecting with other travelers on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, or delving deeper into your destinations with our personalized learning experience, the excitement will hit you long before you pack your suitcase.

​

When your group arrives abroad, everything is taken care of so you can relax and enjoy the experience. Your full-time Tour Director is with your group around the clock, handling local transportation, hotels, and meals while also providing their own insight into the local history and culture. Expert local guides will lead your group on sightseeing tours, providing detailed views on history, art, architecture, or anything you may have a question about.

​

When your journey is over and you’re unpacking your suitcase at home, you’ll realize the benefits of your life-changing experience do not end. They have just begun.
