What people love about Luxury Tours in Europe

Fantastic experience! Dan was great and made everything so interesting for us. He was able to improvise in difficult situations to make things easier for us . He went to great lengths to provide the very best experiences for our group. The best tour my wife and I have ever been on! Eric and Nancy Jenison
- Balkans Uncovered Luxury Tour
Wow, so many countries to fit into 12 days , it was all worth it , everything was so well organized , This was a tour that fulfilled all our expectation . The tour leader Bojan was amazing and fun to be with, answering any questions we may have , bot did we all have a lot , he was very patient , thank you Bojan. The driver was good too, always alert and friendly and kept the bus very clean. Accommodations were good, very comfortable , then again you expect that from a 5 star hotel. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.
- Best of Balkans Luxury Tour
Most hotels.were very good to excellent. That cannot be said for the meals at most of the hotels. We were generally served “western” food, when we would have loved to have gone out to local restaurants to have the local foods like we did on the first night because the meal was not provided. Also, the drinks were far cheaper!! We would have FAR preferred to have paid for no meals up front, then pay for them ourselves at a local restaurant. Tour, guide, driver, experiences were excellent. We would still recommend this trip to our friends
What our customers ask about Luxury Tours to Europe
What type of accommodations can I expect on a luxury European tour?
Luxury European tours provide 4-5 star hotels set in prime locations that combine comfort with exceptional service. You'll find properties like the Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet and the Rosa Grand hotel in Milan. River cruises offer riverview staterooms furnished with Savoir® Beds of England along with Egyptian cotton sheets and European duvets. A TourRadar traveler shared about their Uniworld experience: "The accommodations were absolutely first-class, from the marble bathrooms to the French balconies with panoramic views of Europe's most iconic cities."
How much should I budget for a luxury tour in Europe?
Expect to spend between 4,000 USD and 23,000 USD per person based on your chosen itinerary and duration. A 14-day luxury river cruise from Paris to Istanbul costs around 22,500 USD per person while a 12-day land tour through Italy and Switzerland runs about 6,700 USD. These prices cover premium accommodations most meals exclusive experiences and expert guides. According to a TourRadar traveler on their Uniworld cruise: "While expensive, the all-inclusive nature and level of luxury made it worth every penny."
What kind of dining experiences are included on luxury European tours?
The dining program ranges from Michelin-starred restaurants to local gems and private venues. Guests might enjoy sunset drinks at Venice's Café Florian dine at a family-owned vineyard in Tuscany or taste special pastries at a traditional Viennese coffeehouse. One TourRadar traveler shared about their Insight Vacations tour: "The included dinners were exceptional - from a private dinner at a Tuscan villa to a gourmet feast at a historic Viennese palace. Each meal was carefully curated to showcase the best of local cuisine."
What is the best time of year to take a luxury tour in Europe?
May through September offers the most reliable weather especially in Mediterranean and Alpine regions. Each season brings unique experiences such as December's Christmas markets in Vienna and Budapest or September's grape harvest in French wine regions. A guest from an Insight Vacations tour noted: "We chose May for our luxury tour and found it perfect - warm enough for outdoor dining in Venice and Rome but not too crowded to enjoy exclusive evening access to museums."
What unique experiences are included in luxury European tours?
These tours open doors to experiences beyond regular tourist access. Guests enjoy private after-hours visits to the Vatican Museums exclusive tastings at noble estates and cultural encounters not available to the public. Uniworld's cruises for example arrange private evening lighting ceremonies at St. Mark's Basilica and special access to Rhineland castles. As one TourRadar traveler described: "The exclusive experiences were incredible - from a private concert at Rouen Cathedral to making traditional strudel with a local family in Vienna. These moments really set luxury travel apart."
How much free time is typically included in luxury European tours?
Tours generally provide 2-3 free afternoons weekly balancing guided activities with personal exploration time. A typical day might start with a guided tour of Venice's St. Mark's Basilica followed by free time to explore or a morning at the Louvre with afternoon shopping on the Champs-Élysées. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The schedule was perfect - enough organized activities to feel we weren't missing anything but plenty of free time to explore on our own or simply relax at our luxury hotel."
