What people love about Europe Tours for Young Adults
- Play & Pause: Central Europe Highlights (Winter)
This was a fantastic overview of some big hitting European cities. I would recommend this for anyone who is interested in a quick overview so that they can decide where they really want to return later.
- Mamma Mia! - 13 Days/12 Nights
My trip with italy on a budget was awesome! They were very helpful with communication and had all accomodation, transport, optional tours, etc outlined in a package on my first day. The tour leaders are friendly and helpful and genuinely care about your experience on the tour. I would have liked to have spent more time with them. For my first time to Italy I think 13 day Mamma Mia was the perfect way to see as much as possible. I just wish I had more time! The accomodation in Florence was amazing and the views from the campground in Sorrento were stunning.
