To travel Europe is to learn about culture, history, art, and different people and lifestyles. From London to Athens Greece, Europe, the globe’s smallest continent, offers travelers 40 different countries, some 230 languages, and a myriad of fascinating experiences. Travelers can cruise the Danube River, take a high-speed overnight train across the continent, or spend the day -- or week -- in the Aegean Sea. From the top of the Eiffel Tower to the catacombes of Rome, there's virtually no limit to the unique activities and excursions this classic continent has to offer.

Visiting Europe need not be expensive. Most countries offer a variety of low-cost accommodations, from small bed and breakfast inns – an excellent way to meet and get to know Europeans – to youth hostels, small hotels, and even RV parks. Food costs can be manageable if you eat and drink what the locals eat and drink. Get to know the local specialties and beer and wine. It’s a great way to learn about regional culture while saving money.

Visiting Europe

A chance to travel Europe is a once-in-a-lifetime, unforgettable experience. Non-stop flights depart major U.S. east coast cities, such as Boston, New York, and Atlanta daily to European capitals, such as London, Paris, Frankfurt, and Rome. Save money by booking your flight in advance or taking advantage of one of the many charter flights offered, particularly in the summer months.

Hotel rooms in Europe tend to be much smaller than their American or Canadian counterparts. Most rooms have twin beds, either separated or pushed together. King and queen beds are rare in Europe and usually only found in American chain hotels or in deluxe suites. Private baths are not a given in European hotels. Many hotel rooms have a private lavatory, but not a bathtub, and some have all of the facilities down the hall. Make sure to enquire about the set-up when you make reservations.
