What people love about Western Europe Tours for Young Adults
- Get Social: Scandi Express (Winter)
I honestly had no idea what to expect when starting the Scandi Express tour. I was going with a friend who had already travelled with TopDeck, but she saved all the details...almost like a surprise! Elise was welcoming, knowledgable, kind, and hilarious. She gave you all the information you needed to know, but didn't try to boss you around. She was respectful and all she asked in return was that you respect her; an easy task! Elise, thank you for being oh so kind and caring. I'm planning two more TopDeck tours and if my leaders are anything like you I know I'll be in safe hands.
- Mamma Mia! - 13 Days/12 Nights
It's a great tour if you like full days and seeing as much as possible in a short time. All the guides were excellent! Very friendly and knowledgeable. All the accommodations were in great locations. Could easily walk everywhere (which you do tons of on the trip). We really enjoyed ourselves on this trip, and we would recommend this tour company to our friends.
- Rome to London Trail (Winter, Classic)
Great tour made so much better with Trent! Heaps of insider tips, loads of quirky games and really made the whole trip easy!
What our customers ask about Western Europe Tours for Young Adults
What are the most popular destinations visited on Western Europe young adult tours?
The classic European circuit covers Paris, Rome Amsterdam Barcelona and Berlin. Tours blend time in these major cities with visits to smaller gems. You'll spend your days exploring well-known spots like the Eiffel Tower and evenings discovering local neighborhoods. Many tours include detours to places like the wine cellars of Beaujolais or the pintxos bars of San Sebastian. Accommodations such as the Yellow Hostel in Rome put you right in the center of the action. A TourRadar reviewer shared: "Our guide took us to all the must-see attractions but also showed us amazing local restaurants and neighborhood spots we never would have found on our own."
How much money should I budget for a Western Europe young adult tour?
Plan for USD 200-300 per day on a standard 10-14 day tour. This covers the basics: your bed transport between cities some meals and guided activities. Take Contiki's 10-day European Horizon tour at USD 249 daily as an example. Set aside extra for optional activities (USD 30-120) meals (USD 15-30) and personal expenses. A TourRadar reviewer noted: "The included activities and meals provided great value while having flexibility to choose optional excursions based on my budget."
What's the best time of year to take a Western Europe young adult tour?
Summer brings warm weather and peak crowds from June through August. Better deals and shorter lines await in spring (April-May) and fall (September-October). Paris and Rome shine in springtime while the French Riviera beckons in early autumn. A TourRadar traveler mentioned: "We went in September and it was perfect - still warm enough for the beach in Barcelona but not as crowded or expensive as summer."

Expect a mix of shared hostel rooms (6-8 people) budget-friendly hotels and local spots like camping villages. Contiki's European Quest tour shows the standard setup: 21 nights in hostels and 3 in hotels all near city centers.

As shared by a TourRadar traveler: "The accommodations were basic but clean and well-located - perfect for young travelers who want to spend more time exploring than in their rooms."
What are the best social opportunities to meet other young travelers in Western Europe?
Group activities create natural ways to make friends from shared dinners in Paris to evening walks through Barcelona. Popular hostels like Generator in Paris and Barcelona serve as social hubs. Wine tastings in Bordeaux and city tours bring the group together naturally.

Let us play icebreaker games that help formed lifetime friendships with the other members."
