What people love about Europe Tours for Young Adults
- Rome to Berlin: Piazzas, Prague & the Past
Everything was great, all accomodation was clean and comfortable and both our tour guides were lovely and knowledgeable
- UK & Ireland: Panoramas & Pubs
Awesome itinerary, saw and did so much in the two weeks. Quite a fast paced tour, but enough free time to make sure that you could still explore the cities and other attractions. Great way to see the best of the UK and Ireland.
Rianna was honestly a blessing for this trip I was super nervous going into this trip on the other side of the world but Ri made it seem effortless taking off all the stress of travelling allowing us all to have fun every moment of the day! She made sure we had everything we needed from day sheets, food and activity recommendations, food to fit intolerances, ensuring we all get the bus and don’t lose our passport. I couldn’t say a bad word about her and her work and wouldn’t want to go on another trip without her. It was clear Rianna put in a lot of effort to organise and run this trip with everything going very smoothly. I would highly recommend having Ri as a tour manager to everyone I know!
