What are some great guided European tours?

Question

What are some great European tours that are guided by a tour guide?
We have never been to Europe and would love to go on a guided tour though EVERY country lol (which is not really possible lol (maybe)) and want to see EVERYTHING lol!!!

The tour should include common countries like:
France
Italy
England
Spain
Germany

AND some extras like:
Switzerland
Ireland
Greece (WOULD LOVE TO GO HERE!!!)

Maybe I am asking to much when I list all those contries but we have never been to Europe and when we go we want to experience everything lol ...What are some great European tour companies to look into and what are some great European tour packages to look into that offer all or most of those countries?

Thanks

Answer 1

To be honest, tour companies suck.

You get stuck on a rigid schedule, that isn't real travel. The wonder of travel is to explore, get lost and find new things. To meet locals and feel the heart beat of a city or country. You can't do those thing with a tour company, they have to moving to a new location before that can happen. Half of the fun is to plan things out, sights to see and places to eat. Asking locals what they recommend and making friends.

Of course you can't see all of those countries at once, pick three or four and plan it out. If you don't want to do all the work, contact a travel "agent" and have them set up the air and hotel arrangements. I like to be my own travel guide for most of the locations, however I have used locals too. Set your first full day to have a local guide take you around, they will do a much better job than any company tour guide who really only knows the highlights. A local guide know the ins and outs, and special little nuggets that make it special.

I went with a tour company once and never again. Same thing with some of my friends. To travel is a wonder of life, don't handcuff yourself of that joy.

go to a travel agency, get some brochures, ask the travel agent about tours and decide what you want to do.
