Europe
There is often an unbeatable urge to visit Europe…not just once, but over and over again. With an infinite number of possibilities and country combinations, many of us venture overseas curious about history, culture, art, and people. It’s sometimes hard to know where to start and where and when to go. Unforgettable Trips can work with you to create your European dream trip and customize all the components you will need.
Sometimes there is a certain thing you want to see because you’ve thought about it your whole life. Tell us what you’ve been thinking about, and we can probably help you find it in Europe. The Normandy Beaches? The Colosseum in Rome? Castles? Skiing on snow-covered mountains or exploring and tasting in lush, vineyard-filled valleys?
European travel is where fascinating cultures and thrilling history come alive. There are as many ways to travel in Europe as there are locations, and we love helping our clients design the perfect trip.
What type of trip do you want to take?
Sometimes people start planning by deciding what type of trip they would like. Would you prefer land-based or water-based? Popular European cruises explore the Mediterranean, Northern Europe, and inland rivers and towns nearby. Do you want an escorted tour, a family trip, or independent travel? We can recommend themed tours that use buses, bicycles, hiking, or simply walking. Independent travel is a great option for many, and we are happy to give complimentary advice on hotels and general options. For a modest fee, we are also delighted to create an in-depth, custom plan, such as those for multi-city visits with train travels and excursions.
Where do you want to go?
Other start by location, choosing a single country or city, or combinations. Most people are familiar with the UK, France, Italy and Spain. We also have expertise in Germany and Austria, the Danube areas in Budapest and Prague, and the Mediterranean area.
What do you want to see?
And others start by addressing that special travel aspiration they’ve had for years. Here are some dreams we’ve helped make come true:
- Tastings of wine and matched chocolates in France
- Tulips and windmills cruises: many are offered year-round, but for a garden lover client, we arranged a special trip through the Floriade, an international exhibition and garden festival, held once every 10 years in the Netherlands.
- Tastings and tours during wine harvest time in Italy
- Michelangelo’s Statue of David: tickets are a must-have, and we know how and which days it’s best to arrange them.
- Churches of Rome: we can plan your trip around either attending church services on Sundays, or taking tours on other days.
- A Grandmother taking her granddaughter on a Rhine River trip, with baking event excursions and a hot air balloon ride over Paris.
- A music-loving couple delighting in a classic concert celebrating Mozart and Strauss during twilight at a World Heritage palais.
