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."

Western Europe Tour Selection Trips

  • Here are some actionable travel tips to make the most of your Western Europe tour:

    With so many incredible cities and landmarks in Western Europe, prioritize your must-see destinations to ensure you see all the highlights.
  • Western Europe's cobblestone streets and narrow sidewalks can be challenging with heavy luggage, so pack light and opt for versatile clothing suitable for different weather conditions.
  • Take advantage of Europe's efficient public transportation system, including trains and buses, to easily travel between cities and countries.
  • Invest in a portable Wi-Fi device or ensure your phone plan includes international data to stay connected and access maps, translation apps, and travel information on the go.
  • Western Europe is renowned for its culinary delights, so be sure to sample local dishes and delicacies at authentic cafes, restaurants, and markets.
  • While English is widely spoken in Western Europe, learning basic phrases in the local language shows respect and can enhance cultural immersion.
  • Respect local customs and traditions, such as dress codes for religious sites and dining etiquette, to ensure a positive and respectful travel experience.
  • While it's essential to have a rough itinerary, staying flexible allows you to embrace spontaneous adventures and seize unexpected opportunities.
  • Western Europe can be expensive, so set a budget and prioritize your spending on experiences that matter most to you, whether it's museum visits, guided tours, or dining experiences.
  • Be vigilant of your surroundings, especially in crowded tourist areas, and keep your belongings secure to avoid theft or pickpocketing incidents.
