Our thoughtfully curated itineraries feature unique destinations, expert local guides, and handpicked accommodations, creating a seamless and enriching adventure from start to finish.

Expect to stay in carefully selected 3-4 star hotels, dine at exceptional restaurants, and travel in comfort with spacious, well-appointed coaches. Every detail of your journey has been meticulously planned to provide a stress-free and enjoyable experience.

Your journey begins the moment you sign up. Our dedicated office team is here to assist with everything from registration to flight coordination and trip extensions, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience. Let us take care of the details so you can focus on discovering the beauty of Europe.

Small Group Travel

At European Discoveries, we specialize in small group travel. We have a calendar of tours available to the general public that will accommodate 5-15 participants. We understand that traveling in a group doesn’t always mean that you all will want to do the same thing, which is why we create and run our tours with the individual passengers in mind. Our tour guides continue to do whatever they can to make sure that each individual’s voice is recognized and supported throughout the tour.

Private Tours

European Discoveries takes pride in understanding your group’s individual interests and expectations. Whether you are a family of 4 or a group of 20, we work with every client to develop a trip that suits the needs and interests of your group. Just as each group is unique, so is each trip that we custom design.
