Raves About Our Best of Europe Tours

What's it like to connect the "wows" of Europe's greatest sights in a single two- to three-week trip? Pretty amazing, to say the least! But don't take our word for it, read what our tour members have to say…


"The tour was much more than we expected. Judging from our experiences with other tour companies, our Rick Steves tour was hands down the best in many ways. Tim, our tour guide, was so much fun, very kind, and very knowledgeable about every country and culture. He made the tour a once in a lifetime experience."

Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland

"My kids and I had an amazing time. We're already planning our next trip. The guide (Dimitri) was fantastic, so much so that my kids asked if he could possibly lead the next tour (Greece). The cities and hotels were all very nice. It was a wonderful showcase for someone who hadn't yet seen Europe."

"It was a wonderful experience. This is my second Rick Steves trip, and it met the same level of excellence as the last. Our tour guide, Jody, was exceptional in providing information, support, and fun. I also appreciated the local guides with their expert knowledge and information. The trip was perfect, and we are looking forward to scheduling another in the near future."

"From start to finish, this tour was everything we had hoped for. It was great to leave the planning and logistics to Rick Steves tours and just relax and enjoy all the planned fun activities. Our Rick Steves guide (Paul) and all of the local guides brought the history of the places we visited alive in a way that was just awesome."

"What an unforgettable adventure our trip was! Our tour guide, Stefanie, was absolutely amazing. The amount of time with the group vs. time on our own was balanced and well planned. We would take another Rick Steves trip in a heartbeat. Fantastic."

Manarola

"This tour was five stars all the way! It had a wonderful mix of group activities and free time to explore on our own. Andy was an outstanding guide who brought great humor and knowledge everywhere we went. We always dreamed of seeing Europe on a tour like this and it far exceeded our expectations!"
