Visits

Amsterdam, Berlin, Bruges, London, Paris

Highlights

  • See some of the coolest, most progressive big cities in europe. immerse yourself in berlin's art scene, paris' metro system (it's like anart-nouveauswiss watch!) and amsterdam's bike-friendly utopia (just don't immerse yourself in the canal)
  • Taking the train from london to paris through the channel tunnel is a bit like teleporting, only more romantic. and it means you get to spend even more time gaping at the big ben and posing in front of red telephone boxes
  • Bruges is like stepping into a fairytale from 1,000 years ago. it's also a wonderland of chocolate and beer, in other words very hard to tear yourself away from
  • You've read about it, you've seen it on docos, big deal right? but when you see the eiffel tower up close, just you try and stop yourself from taking a selfie and sending it to your mum

What travelers are saying

"This tour has amazing sites, good hotels in great locations, great pace BUT the tour director that was assigned to be with our small group added nothing to the experience. He did not give us any info, tell us about what we were seeing, give us any info at all. The only time he talked was to tell us when the next bathroom break would be. Apparently this is common for Globus to use retirees starting another chapter. Our guide was 76 and had no energy. Travel with Gate 1 or Intreped.... guides can make or break a tour."

"I would have to say that everything we experienced on our Heart of Europe Grand to include London tour was wonderful. We were always looking forward to the next country visited and enjoyed every minute of our trip. Our tour guide, Minni Hoeve, communicated with us throughout our trip. He is wonderful, kind and knowledgeable tour guide."

What travelers are saying

"It was a very eventful itinerary that allowed us to see 8 countries in two weeks. The tour was very fast paced in order to accomplish the advertised program and it felt rushed. In order to travel to 8 different European countries, you have to expect that there will be a lot of coach seat/drive time. Our tour guide Jemma and coach driver Gabriel were very professional and focused on meeting Expat Explore’s tour destination requirements. Jemma always provided interesting information and tips about the cities and sites that we were visiting. Our driver Gabriel always got us to our destinations on time and safely. The included and optional excursions were conducted at a moderate to swift walking speed, at some places there was no time to take pictures. Some of us found it difficult to keep up with the group, and once caught up to the group, who were at a stopping/rest point, it was time to resume the walking tour which did not allow some of us to catch our breath. You have to keep in mind that this tour is a “budget” tour. With that in mind, some hotels were sub-standard. The Paris hotel had mold in the shower. As expected, some hotels did not have air-conditioning, and other hotels which did have air conditioning were not adequately able to cool the room. The included tour dinners and lunches were very average. We had better dining experiences when we were left on our own when we used our free time. Overall, we were pleased to see all European countries/cities/sites included in the tour. This review was submitted to Expat Explore to be posted. I believe that Expat Explore only posts 4 and 5 stars reviews on their website which gives a misleading impression of the services they provide."

"Traveling with AESU was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. They kept the trip organized and on scheduale and made sure we were all very safe while giving us so many opportunities to explore on our own as well as with our tour group. The adventures and sites we went and did and saw were life changing and I would give anything to go back with this company. I wouldn’t have traded my experience for anything. I definitely recommend traveling with AESU!!!"

What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

"The trip was well laid out. Tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The only complaint is some of our travel documents that were sent out were not in English. If your sending documents out correspondence should be in both the native language and the language of the people the correspondence to. Other than that a great first time experience."

England Tour Selection Trips

  • There are numerous accents in England and they vary tremendously by region, and sometimes town. Some are easier to understand than others, but people are generally friendly and don't mind repeating themselves if you ask nicely. 
  • The English Countryside is famous for its beauty, and it’s well worth reserving a day to spend driving through.
  • London is one of the best walking cities around - so pack comfortable shoes! 
  • English food gets a bad rap, but if you hunt around there are some gems to be found. From delicious pub fare like the classic fish and chips to more exotic Indian and Pakistani food.
  • Be prepared for damp and rainy weather! The sun doesn’t always like to come out in England, or the wider United Kingdom for that matter, so be sure to pack accordingly.

Best time to travel to England

  • June-September, Summer, for the best weather
  • March-May, Spring, & September-October, Fall, for fewer crowds and moderate weather
  • November-March, Winter, for the fewest crowds

Summer is the peak season in England as most of the tourists plan their England tours from June to September. The days are long, and the weather is warm compared to the rest of the year. However, due to being a high tourist time, you will find every place crowded with people. You will also experience high rates for everything, whether it is accommodation or travel costs.

You can avoid the crowds a little by not going for public transport and renting a car instead. One special thing about summer is the various music and theatre festival going on throughout the season. Get into one of these if you find a chance, and have the real essence of the English culture.

The second most favorite time to travel to London is during spring and autumn. The weather becomes moderate during these times, i.e., March to May and September and October. Hit the weather sweet spot of the region while discovering the fascinating beauty of the royal parks and blossoming gardens.

Experience the beauty of spring flowers while enjoying the warm and usually dry days. And if you are visiting during fall, you will have the privilege to have the beautiful sight of the autumn leaves with their changing hues, making the surroundings more calm and soothing. The earlier you go in spring, the smaller crowds you will experience. But to have low crowds in autumn, you need to go by the latter half of October.

The cheapest time for England tours is between November to March, except for the Christmas holidays. You can find a fair discounted deal for air travel and accommodation, especially. Though various attractions like mountain areas, especially in the north, are closed during the winter due to snow and cold, the main cities are open completely.

This might be the coldest time of the year but has the minimum crowds, and you can enjoy some of the best opera, theater, ballet, and classical music offers and have a closer view of the English life. Arrive after the Christmas holidays and get the chance to avail post-Christmas sales offering fashion clothing, handicrafts, woolens, crystal, silver, and much more at the lowest prices. If you don't mind getting wrapped up in various layers of clothes, then winter can be a good time for budget travelers.

If you are planning to travel to England, you should always be prepared for the rain. Many people see it as a drawback and afraid that it can ruin their trip. But all you need is an umbrella or a raincoat to avoid your trip getting ruined.

English Weather

England has a relatively temperate climate and doesn't really have temperature extremes in winter or summer. However, it has a reputation for having grey misty days and drizzly weather round the year. So be ready for unexpected rain with an umbrella or raincoat during your England travel.

The notoriously unpredictable weather in the country is full of surprises for you. You might get a sharp, sunny, crispy day in cold winter, or can have a chilly rainy afternoon in mid-June. The temperature rarely goes below 2°C, even when winter is at its full bloom, or rise above 26°C during summer.

Do I Need a Visa for England?

England has a different visa policy for different countries. For most of the countries' citizens, it is compulsory to get a before landing on the England soil, even for tourism purposes. However, if you are US, Canadian, Australian, Swiss, EU, or EEA citizen, you do not require a visa and only need to show a valid passport to enter England for a stay of 6 months or less.

For the rest of the countries, it is required to apply for a visa before flying to England. You can check your visa requirement fromhttps://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa, where you put in your information, and you know whether or not you need a visa from your country.
