Can i get hotel details, If need hotel upgradation is it possible.

Hotel information for this trip is not available until closer to departure. You will be staying in 3 star hotel accommodation that is normally just outside the city centre. For these trips you are unable to change the hotels as this is a set itinerary. Topdeck only offers tours for travellers between the ages of 18 and 39.

I want to start and end my trip in Europe and skip London

Were you wanting to start and finish the tour in Amsterdam instead of London? That wouldn't be a problem you would just need to let us know once you have a booking.

Topdeck runs tours exclusively for travellers between ages (18-39). They are designed and marketed towards budget-minded young travellers wanting to meet other people their age from all over the world. These tend to be very popular with students and backpackers.

Where and when does the tour end?

The tour will arrive back in London between 6.30 - 8.30 pm, where it will drop you off at the Burns Hotel (subject to change). Please be aware that our return time is dependant upon external factors, and we recommend that passengers do not book flights for the final day of the tour.

Where and when does the tour start?

The coach will depart promptly from the designated meeting point in London at 6am. You will be meeting the group at the Burns Hotel, located at 18-26 Barkston Gardens, Earls Court, London, SW5 0EN (subject to change). The closest underground stop to the hotel is Earls Court. For some travellers it may be more convenient to join the tour in Paris, where the tour will arrive later that day. Just let us know at the time of booking if this is the case and we can arrange this for you.

Do you arrange airport transfers?

This tour does not include transfers, therefore travellers will have to make their own way to the joining point locations. All joining points are conveniently located close to public transport routes and your final tour documents will provide guidance on the best routes to take.

Can you assist with booking additional accommodation?

Of course, we can! Once you have a confirmed booking on this tour, we can request additional accommodation for you with the tour operator.

What is the age range?

Topdeck creates trip itineraries designed exclusively for younger travellers. They can be more fast-paced, budget-minded, and includes activities for travellers to meet and have fun with other young passengers from all parts of the world! Their brand is designed around this unique experience geared toward younger travellers, so only passengers aged 18 - 39 years old can travel on this tour.

I'm a solo traveller, is there a single supplement?

There are no single supplement charges for this trip, as all the accommodation will be multi-share. Often over 50% of the passengers touring will be travelling alone, so you will be in great company! Solo travellers will be matched up with a roommate(s) of the same sex, which is a great way to bond with others on the trip.

Is there a hotel list available?

Hotel lists for this trip are not confirmed until your final trip documents are released, which will be 3 - 4 weeks prior to departure. These will include all your specific accommodation details. We can however advise that all the accommodation on this tour will be twin or triple share 3 - 4* hotel rooms with good facilities, WiFi, and breakfasts included!

Definitely worth the money. Everybody was great except one person in the group. That’s 1/28 so I guess it’s not bad. Our trip leader was exceptional. She was very knowledgeable and professional; but also knows how to have fun. It’s a lot of walking so you better be prepared for that. All the countries we visited were amazing in their own way. Our bus driver was also amazing. He made sure we make it to our destinations on time. Drive to the locations isn’t too bad either. We stop for breaks every 2 hours. Hotels aren’t the biggest but it’s Europe so it’s pretty normal. Overall this trip was worth the money.Show more

Highly recommend doing a shorter trip first so you know what you’re in for in terms of bus travel and accomodation...
Highly recommend doing a shorter trip first so you know what you’re in for in terms of bus travel and accomodation but it’s definitely not necessary. Pack lightly because you’ll be hauling that suitcase from the bus to the hostel and the driver can’t always park directly in front of it. It’s a long tour so make sure to pick up some cold and flu tablets because you will, at some point, get sick but that won’t impact the trip and it’s really easy to take a day off from extensive exploring or to recuperate on the bus. Be prepared to sleep in really weird positions because the bus is as comfortable as they can possibly be but it’s still a bus. Make sure you have your passport on you at all times because you’re crossing a lot of borders on this tour and you don’t want to be that person who has to pull their suitcase from the bottom of the bus and open it at customs. It happened on my tour. Don’t be afraid to mingle amongst everyone. I’ve been on a tour that was quite clique heavy before but this European Getaway Tour was 30+ people and I got to know every single one of them really well, and we had a blast every day and night. But at the same time, it’s totally okay if you need some alone time so take that at your accomodation or on the bus, try not to wander off alone while exploring unless you know your way around. It’s real easy to get lost but you’ll find your way back eventually.Show more
