European Grand Tours

Explore

Relive a golden age of travel on a 9 to 13-day European Grand Tour in search of art, culture and the roots of Western civilisation.

Europe is brimming with history, unique architecture and scenic countryside that has inspired artists like Vincent Van Gogh and Claude Monet. Our European Grand Tours show you more about your chosen destination - from the most popular cities to the best-hidden gems. There'll be more time to embrace a new culture - and savour even more of each destination's delicious food!

History lovers will enjoy three days in Rome, marvelling at the Baroque monuments and ancient ruins, before travelling south to the Bay of Naples, exploring the stunning Sorrento countryside and visiting the poignant remains of Pompeii. You could wander along the breathtaking shores of the Italian Lakes - Lake Como and Lake Maggiore - before taking a once-in-a-lifetime rail journey through the Swiss Alps. (You'll want to keep your camera handy here). Perhaps you'd prefer to visit two of France's greatest cities of culture, experiencing fine art, fine wine, and everything in between.
