What people love about Europe Tours for Young Adults
- Play & Pause: Britain & Ireland
I had a fantastic tour and would recommend it to anyone wanting a taste of Britain and Ireland! I am looking forward to my next trip here. We got so much information from Elise along the way which helped out when planning out free time.
- Essential Turkey (from Istanbul to Antalya)
Great bunch of people, tour guide was personally involved as part of the group, incredible sights and activities. 10/10 Would recommend.
- Central Europe Group Rail Tour (18-35)
The highlight of our year so far! ? Me and my partner loved the Central Europe Tour ?(2 weeks), we would recommend it to ANYONE! And we would even suggest doing the Whole of Europe tour (4 weeks), as we could have easily carried on travelling with this company and the amazing people we met! ?The whole trip was thoroughly planned and so enjoyable! Such a stress free experience, especially for someone like myself who gets quite anxious when travelling - I would 100% do again!?? I met some incredible individuals, and the group planned activities were just what we needed to establish really strong bonds straight away! We have definitely made some lifelong friends and memories we will forever cherish! ??? The creation of the WhatsApp group chat with all our fellow travellers beforehand was so beneficial!? It broke the ice and put our minds at ease about the uncertainty of the upcoming trip ? And our guide Cristina ? - was brilliant, super friendly, helpful, considerate and extremely knowledgeable - educating us all. She was available 24/7, and we had the pleasure of spending our last day in Venice with her! ??? She deserves a lot of credit for making all our experiences amazing and unforgettable! Thank you Cristina ?? We look forward to our future bookings with Euroventure! ??
