About this trip

Forty-seven days, fourteen countries, eighteen cities — this is the big one, a coach trip that strings together most of Europe's headline stops into a single continuous journey. You will move often and see a lot, from Paris to Barcelona and well beyond.

With 26 activities and 70 meals built in, the days are full rather than loosely sketched, and a three-night beach stop in Greece is dropped in partway through so you actually get a chance to stop moving for a bit.

It suits someone who wants breadth over lingering — a proper sweep of the continent in one go, with a group doing the same and a guide handling the logistics.

What you'll do

  • Try escargot in Paris
  • Take in Gaudi's architecture in Barcelona
  • Cross fourteen countries and eighteen cities by coach
  • Recharge on a three-night beach break in Greece
  • 26 included activities and 70 meals along the way
Good to know
  • A long, fast-moving itinerary — expect frequent city changes over the full 47 days
  • Coach travel between stops, fully guided throughout
  • Best suited to those who want to cover ground rather than settle into any one place
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want to see lots of Europe fast and connect with a solid group. Think twice if you need comfort, dietary flexibility, or a leisurely pace.

  • Trip leader Jared consistently praised as knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely excellent at managing 48 people across multiple countries.
  • Packed schedule means real free time in each city to explore independently after guided walking tours and orientation.
  • Bus is ageing and uncomfortable for a 47-day journey; accommodation varies wildly between hostels; vegan options limited especially in Italy.
  • Fast-paced itinerary requires preparation beforehand; you'll be moving constantly with little downtime between destinations.
