May of 2027 Itinerary

About this Itinerary:

​

You'll travel over 1,500 miles by plane, train, automobile, cable car, funicular, aerial tram, gondola, motorboat, luge, and cog railway. You'll span three time zones, visit six countries, tour more than a dozen cities, and explore several UNESCO World Heritage sites dating from antiquity to the modern era. At one point, you'll be 250 feet under the English Channel, at another, you'll be 7,000 feet in the air atop the Swiss Alps. You'll careen down the slopes of Mount Pilatus on Switzerland's longest toboggan run, swim in the warm waters of both the Aegean and Mediterranean, roam the cobbled streets of Pompeii, wander the lemon-scented isle of Capri, and even enjoy a private tour of the Vatican! In 17 days, you'll see and experience more of Continental Europe than most Europeans manage in a lifetime. This is truly a whirlwind tour of European capitals and cultures like no other; an incomparable, transformative overseas adventure!

​

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.
