Why Europe for your vacation

No other region packs so much variety into such short distances: in one two-week trip you can stand inside the Colosseum, ride a gondola in Venice, eat your way through a Paris market and catch a high-speed train to London. Europe vacation packages work especially well because rail links, short flights and compact historic centers let you combine two or three destinations without losing days in transit.

Our most requested destination pages include Italy, Paris & France, London & England, Greece, Spain, Ireland and Portugal. Travelers looking beyond the classics ask for Germany, Switzerland, Amsterdam & Netherlands, Croatia, Iceland and Scotland.

What's included in a Europe package

  • Round-trip flights on major airlines from your home city, with multi-city routings (fly into Rome, home from Paris) when they save time.
  • Hotel nights with the plan you choose: breakfast included is the norm in Europe, with room-only and half-board options common in resort areas.
  • Private or shared airport transfers, plus rail tickets or short intra-Europe flights between cities.
  • Optional guided tours and timed entries for museums, palaces and archaeological sites.
  • Optional cruise legs, such as a Mediterranean sailing or a Rhine or Danube river cruise, with the pre-cruise hotel arranged.
  • A named agent who handles changes, delays and questions before and during the trip.

Best time to visit Europe

May–June and September–October are the sweet spots: warm days, thinner crowds and comfortable sightseeing weather from Lisbon to Vienna. July and August are peak season, with the hottest temperatures in the Mediterranean and the highest demand for rooms, though northern Europe, Scandinavia and the Alps are at their best then. Winter brings Christmas markets in Germany, Austria, Prague and Budapest in December, ski season in the Alps from December through March, and quiet city breaks in January and February. Iceland and Norway offer midnight sun in June and northern-lights viewing from late September to March.

Where to stay: areas and resort styles

City hotels put you within walking distance of the sights: Rome's Centro Storico, the Left Bank in Paris, London's Westminster and South Bank, Barcelona's Eixample, Lisbon's Chiado. Boutique properties in converted palazzos, townhouses and canal houses give a stronger sense of place in Amsterdam, Prague and Vienna. For beach time, look to the Amalfi Coast, the Algarve, the Greek islands of Santorini, Mykonos and Crete, Spain's Costa del Sol and Croatia's Dalmatian coast, with boutique and family-friendly resorts, some all-inclusive or half board. Villas suit families and groups in Tuscany, Provence and the islands, while Alpine lodges and countryside inns in Switzerland, Austria and Ireland round out the options.

Things to do in Europe

  • Walk the ancient and Renaissance heart of Italy: Rome, Florence, Venice and the Amalfi Coast.
  • Pair Paris with the Loire châteaux, the Normandy beaches or the Riviera.
  • Combine London with Edinburgh and the Scottish Highlands by rail.
  • Island-hop the Cyclades or explore Athens and the Peloponnese in Greece.
  • Follow Gaudí in Barcelona, flamenco in Seville and tapas bars in Madrid.
  • Drive the Ring of Kerry and the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland.
  • Sail Croatia's islands, soak in Budapest's thermal baths, or take a Danube or Rhine river cruise.
  • Save Vienna & Austria, Prague & Czech Republic, Istanbul & Turkey or Norway & Scandinavia for a second or third trip.

Getting there from the US

Nonstop flights run roughly 6.5–9 hours from major East Coast gateways such as New York, Boston, Washington, Atlanta and Miami. From West Coast gateways such as Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, expect 10–12+ hours nonstop, or connect through New York, Chicago or Dallas. US passport holders travel visa-exempt to the Schengen area for short stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period; the ETIAS travel authorization is being phased in, so verify requirements before travel. The United Kingdom is outside Schengen and now requires an ETA for US visitors, so verify current rules there too. Carry a passport valid for at least three months beyond your departure from Schengen. The euro is used in most countries; the UK uses the pound, and Switzerland, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Norway and Iceland keep their own currencies. English is widely spoken in tourist areas. Most of western Europe runs six hours ahead of US Eastern time, the UK, Ireland and Portugal five, and Greece seven.

Who this package suits

Couples and honeymooners gravitate to Italy, Paris, Santorini and the Amalfi Coast. Families do well with a two-city trip, a villa base or a river cruise where transport is built in. Seniors appreciate escorted touring, rail over driving and hotels with elevators in walkable historic centers; ask about our senior travel reservations. Groups, reunions and multi-generational trips benefit from coordinated group travel flights. For the overnight transatlantic flight, lie-flat seats through our business class and first class reservations are worth asking about. Solo travelers like the ease of rail-connected cities and small-group tours.

FAQs

May, June, September and October offer warm weather, manageable crowds and good availability across Italy, France, Spain and Greece. July and August are hottest and busiest in the Mediterranean but ideal for Scandinavia and the Alps. December is Christmas-market season in Germany, Austria and Central Europe.

Nonstop flights take roughly 6.5–9 hours from East Coast gateways such as New York, Boston and Washington, and 10–12+ hours from Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle. Most departures are overnight and arrive the next morning, so plan the first day lightly.

US passport holders travel visa-exempt to the Schengen area for stays of up to 90 days in any 180-day period. The ETIAS travel authorization is being phased in, and the UK now requires an ETA for US visitors, so verify current requirements before travel and carry a passport valid well beyond your return date.

Most European city hotels are booked with breakfast included, and room only is common in larger cities. All-inclusive and half-board plans exist mainly at beach resorts in Greece, Spain, Portugal, Croatia and Turkey. Your expert will explain which plan makes sense for each stop on your itinerary.

Yes. Families do best with two or three bases rather than constant movement, a villa or apartment-style hotel, and rail travel between cities. Theme parks near Paris, beaches in Spain and Portugal, and castles in Germany and Scotland are reliable hits with children of all ages.

Very much so. Escorted tours, river cruises and rail-based itineraries keep the pace comfortable, and your expert can request hotels with elevators, central locations and minimal stairs. Ask about senior travel reservations and lie-flat business class seats for the overnight flight when you call.

Europe is generally very safe for visitors. The main issue is petty theft, especially pickpocketing in crowded areas of Paris, Rome and Barcelona and on busy metro lines, so use a cross-body bag and keep valuables out of back pockets. Check State Department advisories for each destination before you go.

Most of Europe uses the euro; the UK uses the pound, and Switzerland, Czechia, Hungary, Poland, Norway and Iceland have their own currencies. Cards are accepted nearly everywhere. Tipping is modest: round up or leave 5–10 percent in restaurants where service is not already included, and a euro or two for porters and drivers.

For summer and holiday travel, book four to eight months ahead for the widest flight and hotel selection; shoulder-season trips can often be arranged two to three months out. Timed-entry attractions and rail seats also sell out, so earlier booking makes it easier to lock in the full itinerary.

Call +1 (323) 800 6001 any time, 24/7, and tell a Fond Travels expert your dates, travelers, cities and budget style. You will receive two or three itinerary options with flights, hotels and transfers, confirm and pay securely by phone, and get the full itinerary by email.
