Itinerary

Introduction
So your boss only gave you two weeks leave? Lucky for you this firecracker of a Euro trip fits so
perfectly into 14 days it’s almost too good to be true. Get a taste of Europe with the big-gun cities,
the bucket-list items and alllllll the carb-loaded, cheese-topped, sugar-filled delights that only
Europe can deliver. There’s not really a better introduction to Europe than this.

Day 1: London, England to Paris, France

Wombats City Hostel,

Start Point 06:30
7 Dock Street, London, E1 8JN

All good things start with Paris. Meet the crew and grab some supplies before we hit the road early
in the morning and jump across the English Channel. The home of Coco Chanel, the Pompidou
Centre and the Mona Lisa, Paris more than deserves its reputation as the European capital for all
things culture, fashion and food-related. What better way to start the trip than with a driving tour and
delicious picnic next to the Eiffel Tower?Included today: - Driving tour of Paris and gourmet picnic
by the Eiffel Tower Meals: - Dinner

Day 2: Paris
This morning: free time en Français. From the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay to the Arc de
Triomphe and the Champs Elysées, you'll be sure to make a solid dent in your bucket list. Later on,
it’s up to you: stretch those legs on an optional bike tour of Paris or simply roam the streets on your
own. End your day with an optional Seine River cruise or a #throwback cabaret show.Optional
activities: - Traditional cabaret show - Seine river cruise - Bike tour of Paris Meals: - Breakfast

Day 3: Paris to Swiss Alps, Switzerland

Trade in Parisian streets for snowy peaks. Home to the ‘Top of Europe’, 72 waterfalls and one of the
largest nature conservations in Switzerland, Lauterbrunnen is where we'll be spending the night.
Upon arrival, we’ll get stuck into an included dinner before heading to the bar for a nightcap.
Cheers!Meals: - Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner

Day 4: Swiss Alps

Scenic hikes and jaw-dropping views are high on today's agenda. Go low key with a mountain walk
or hop on board the Jungfraubahn railway for an optional visit to the Jungfrau Mountain summit.

make your way back down.Optional activities: - Scenic excursion to Jungfrau ('The Top of Europe')
- Skydiving - Scenic helicopter ride - Visit a Swiss watch shop Meals: - Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner

sleep, repeat in the foodie capital of the world?Included today: - Visit Pisa and see the famous
Leaning Tower Meals: - Breakfast - Lunch - Dinner

Day 6: Florence to Rome

After a walking tour of Florence with a super knowledgeable local guide, it’s up and onwards to
Rome. Time to give that bucket list a workout. We’ll pass by the Pantheon, throw our two cents in
the Trevi Fountain, sit on the Spanish Steps and check out the mighty Colosseum before the day is
done. Tonight, you're in Disneyland for foodies. Have fun!Included today: - Walking tour of Florence

kisses and pizza the way it's supposed to taste. Count your blessings on an optional tour of
Vatican City, then play ‘I-spy’ with two-and-a-half millennia worth of history. Want more? You could
always shop till you drop on Via Condotti, head to Capitoline Hill for awesome views of the Roman
Forum and Colosseum or just kick back in Piazza Navona for some dolce far niente (delicious
idleness).Optional activities: - Guided tour of Vatican City Meals: - Breakfast - Dinner

Day 8: Rome to Venice

You know it as The Floating City, but this place is actually sinking (slowly). Today we’ll check out a
who's who of Venice's usual suspects on a guided walking tour (ticking off the likes of St Mark's
Square and Accademia Bridge) before rounding things off with a vaporetto ride along the Grand
Canal. Need suggestions for this afternoon? Insider tip: spend some time seeking out the epic
Libreria Acqua Alta bookshop (or just go on a mission to find the perfect gelato).Included today: -

shirt or hoodie Meals: - Breakfast

old Hofbräuhaus? Did you know that the recipes here were passed down from Wilhelm V, the Duke
of Bavaria? You do now!Included today: - Walking tour of Munich Meals: - Breakfast - Lunch

historic Tempelhof airport-turned-public park. Tonight, it’s your chance to explore the city after dark
- Berlin’s nightlife is famous for a reason!Optional activities: - Third Reich walking tour Meals: -

Start dreaming of cafes, clogs and canals as we roll through tulip and windmill-dotted fields to
Amsterdam. After learning how cheese and clogs are made, we’ll get our bearings on a walking
tour. We’re talking the Dam Square, the Royal Palace and the National Monument – so get your
cameras at the ready! For the perfect end to the perfect day, give in to temptation and grab a cone
of hot chips with mayo. Mmm.Included today: - Orientation tour of Amsterdam Meals: - Breakfast

Join 881,000 bikes and get your cycle on with an optional bike tour of Amsterdam's iconic canals,
bridges and parks. And for the culture fiends? Delve deeper with a visit to the Anne Frank House
(make sure to book in advance!) or the Van Gogh or Rijksmuseum. Whatever you get up to, make
sure you’re back in time to toast the final night of our European adventure on a dinner cruise along
the canal.Optional activities: - Bike tour of Amsterdam Meals: - Breakfast - Dinner

I had a wonderful time on the European Wonder tour in September
2019. Stien was a fantastic guide and she played a major part in
making the entire trip a lot of fun. She was very friendly and helpful
throughout the entire tour! With her knowledge and interest in travel, it
was amazing to learn all about the different locations from her from
history and culture to the food and languages. I hope that I get the
chance to travel with Tourradar and Stien again in the future!

Bring a suitcase instead of a backpack, don't get out that much
money in Switzerland since everywhere accepts cards. Most the side
activities are totally worth it. The bus rides in between the locations
are a great time to cool off from the exicitement between the
locations, but bring something to do when you aren't sleeping like a
kindle or movies loaded onto your phone. Go into things with an open
mind.

Do I need a visa?

As a tour booking website, TourRadar cannot organise visas for you on your behalf as the
visa requirements are regularly being updated and vary for the nationality of one traveller to
the next. It is for this reason that we recommend checking with your local embassy or
consulate website for the latest up to date information.

What transport is included on the tour?

All of the transportation on this tour is done in a modern air-conditioned coach with free Wi-Fi,
including power points for charging electronics.

What is the travel time between destinations?

Unfortunately, we are unable to give specific travel times between destinations, as these
times will vary based on how many breaks the group has, or if you make stops along the
way. Normally the group will travel in the morning and spend the rest of the day in their new
destination. For an estimate of the distances travelled we recommend putting each
destination into google maps.

Will there be somewhere safe to keep your personal belongings while on tour?

The majority of hostels in Europe have individual lockers for guests to store their belongings -
we recommend that you bring your own padlock as these may not be supplied. You can see
the hostels frequently used on this tour listed underneath "Accommodation" on the "What's
Included"tab, please be aware the accommodation is subject to change.
 European Wonder https://www.tourradar.com/t/1461

How much spending money will I need?

Naturally everybody's spending varies. There are many souvenirs to be bought and a great
social scene should you wish to join in! Many of your meals are included, so this really just
leaves a few meals and your personal spending to budget for. Throughout the trip, your Trip
Leader will also inform you of optional activities which you can participate in, such as a
gondola ride in Venice or an excursion up the Jungfrau Mountain in Switzerland. Most people
budget approximately €70 per day including optional activities and some souvenirs.

What meals are included on the tour?

The following meals are provided: - 13 breakfasts - 6 lunches - 11 dinners.

Can you assist with booking additional accommodation?

Of course, we can! Once you have a confirmed booking on this tour, we can request
additional accommodation for you with the tour operator.

Is it possible to meet the group in Paris for this tour?

Meeting the tour in Paris instead of London is not a problem, however, Topdeck is not able to
offer a discount for choosing to do this as the tour cost is a set package.
