Fancy a European vacation straight out of the movies? Trying to tackle the Colosseum, Leaning Tower of Pisa and Lake Como in one go? Keen to discover destinations like Georgia, Croatia and Iceland? Then grab your guidebook, brush up on your key phrases and let these top Culture Trips help you plan an unforgettable European adventure.
Classic Northern Italy by Train
This is the Italian trip you’ve dreamed of. You’ll do more than merely what the Romans do over nine action-packed days. Start by checking out the Colosseum and surrounding sites in the capital. Then, it’s all-aboard to Tuscany’s medieval cities, Florence and Siena, for wine-tasting and city strolling. We’ll take you to foodie heaven in Bologna, Parma and Emilia-Romagna, before getting some well-earned lakeside R&R in Lake Como ahead of your final stop in Milan – only you’ll skip the runway in favour of its indulgent gastronomic delights.
Georgia and the Caucasus
The locals will be quick to tell you that Georgia is the birthplace of wine as we know it today, and with a history of viticulture dating back to at least 6000 BCE, they could well be right. This nine-day tour is heavy on the wine and even heavier on the Georgian dumplings and khachapuri – but you’ll walk off the calories on epic mountain hikes and treks through luscious national parks. Start with a Georgian lunch in Tbilisi’s old town, before learning the art of winemaking, and feasting in the countryside. After high-altitude hikes to remote valleys and monasteries, end your tour with a soothing sulphur bath back in Tbilisi.
Athens to Santorini: A Greek Island-Hopping Odyssey in the Cyclades
Spend eight days island-hopping around some of the most beautiful islands in Greece. Our adventure starts in Athens, where you’ll admire the Acropolis, before heading to the Cyclades. The next stop is Milos, followed by Naxos, and finishing off in dreamy Santorini – where you can snap that iconic sunset shot. Charming villages, pristine beaches, ancient history and a cooking masterclass are all on offer during this epic European adventure.
