    Brett

    Asked on February 7th, 2025

    I'm looking for a small group tour. Any suggestions?

    Group size
    • EuropamundoOperator•Written February 2025

      If you are talking for the amount of the people, it will vary depending on the circuits. Usually, there are fewer passengers, although it will depend largely on the tours. The number can vary depending on the days or the specific sector of the tour. The maximum bus size is only around 45 - 65 travelers. You would be on one bus. There may be other buses, but you would only be a part of the one bus.

      Currently our regular departures are operating with a minimum of two passengers, the most flexible policy of any major touroperator. However, please keep in mind that at this date we still cannot guarantee the operation for your chosen departure. Since we depend on situations outside our control like the evolution of the pandemic, vaccination rates and border policies set by each country, we evaluate our destinations week by week in order to make a decision whether to operate it or not.

    Asked on May 22nd, 2024

    Do we come back to Paris the night before the 8th day (last day)?

    Tour Details
    • EuropamundoOperator•Written May 2024

      For the last day you don't have any activities. So you can leave the hotel after breakfast or at the moment you want to leave. Remember this tour does not include the transfer to the airport. Day 8 PARIS - After breakfast, end of our services. Note: Remember that hotels check-out time is usually at 10.00 hrs. In most cases, you can leave your luggage at the hotel reception at check-out time, so you can enjoy the city and pick it up at the time you require that same day. If you need more time to use your room, please consider booking an additional night at the end of your tour.
