About this trip
Forty-five days is enough time to actually get through a continent, not just skim the edges of it. Starting in London, this coach-based trip works its way across Europe, taking in places as far apart as Switzerland, Romania, Istanbul and Amsterdam, before finishing with a stretch in Egypt.
This is a long, structured group tour built around covering serious distance overland, with flights and ferries included where the route needs them. Expect a lot of driving between stops and a itinerary that keeps moving.
What you'll do
- Overland coach travel across multiple European countries
- Stop in Switzerland's mountain scenery
- Explore Istanbul, straddling Europe and Asia
- See Amsterdam's canals and city centre
- Time in Romania
- Extension to Egypt to close out the trip
- A long-haul itinerary — 45 days on the road with frequent moves between countries
- Coach-based travel means long days getting between destinations
- Suits people who want breadth over lingering in one place
Worth it if you want a properly guided European sprint with strong group bonding. Think twice if you need flexibility or dislike early starts on 45-day itineraries.
- Guide quality can genuinely transform the trip; Greg's knowledge, availability and willingness to party with the group stood out repeatedly.
- Group cohesion is real—strangers become close mates by the end, which matters on a 45-day immersion across multiple countries.
- No reviews mention logistics, costs, accommodation quality or daily realities—glossy testimonials lack detail on potential downsides.
- This trip hinges on guide personality; reviews don't confirm whether all leaders match Greg's standard or what happens if yours doesn't.
