Additional Note

  • This tour itinerary is very tight and also requires a lot of walking. The group need to be in the places on time, otherwise they cannot get through the next destination.
  • Due to different bus models, we may not be able to accommodate participants using wheelchairs. Therefore, we regret that we cannot accept wheelchair users to join our tour. (Note: For "private group tours", please inform us before receiving a quote.)
  • As the space for luggage on the tour bus is limited, each passenger can only carry one piece of luggage with them (luggage not exceeding 30 KG, with the sum of three sides not exceeding 158 cm). If a passenger carries more than one piece of luggage (if there is enough space in the luggage compartment), an additional €5 per piece of luggage per day will be charged as a driver handling fee. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
  • Our company reserves the right to publicly display participant's portraits taken during the tour. We will capture activities and moments during the trip for promotional purposes.
  • European tours are different from other countries in the world. Most tourist attractions cannot be reached directly by tour buses and require walking tours. If a passenger has limited mobility, they may have to wait on the bus at some attractions and cannot visit with the group. Loss of attractions cannot be used as a reason to request compensation or refunds. Please pay attention and think carefully before joining the tour. Once you have registered and confirmed your participation, it also means that you accept our company's terms and conditions.
  • Please present this tour ticket for boarding at the designated assembly point on time. We will not wait for latecomers, and the tour fee will not be refunded. Our company is not responsible for any consequences. In case of emergencies, please call the emergency phone number provided.
  • Participants are responsible for bringing and carrying valid travel documents (passport), electronic health codes, and visas with a validity period of at least six months from the departure date. In any case or for any reason, if the participant is refused entry by the immigration authorities (customs), our company is not responsible, and any losses incurred are the responsibility of the participant. The tour fee will not be refunded.
  • Please avoid bringing valuable items and precious jewelry as much as possible. Valuables and documents should be carried with you at all times and kept under your own supervision. Our company, driver, and tour leader are not responsible for any loss.
  • Tour members must abide by the laws and regulations of each country, and it is strictly prohibited to carry private goods for profit and illegal items. Smoking is prohibited in all public places and indoor buildings (including hotel rooms) in Europe, with fines of up to thousands of euros, so please abide by the law. In recent years, some famous buildings (attractions) in Europe have banned visitors from sitting on the ground to rest or eat, which is not only considered rude but may also face immediate prosecution.
  • In any case or for personal reasons, if a tour member requests to leave on their own, return individually or leave the tour midway, our company will assist in making arrangements. However, our company will not be responsible for any indirect or direct cost losses incurred due to delays in transportation or other circumstances that result in missing the pre-arranged itinerary or accommodation.
  • Any tour participant who intentionally obstructs the tour leader's work, endangers the safety of others, or affects the normal activities and interests of the group, the tour leader has the right to cancel their tour qualification, order the participant to leave the group depending on the specific situation or with the consent of the majority of the tour participants. The remaining balance of the unfinished part of the journey will not be refunded, and any actions taken by the participant after leaving the group will not be related to the company.
  • If the flight or bus is delayed due to a malfunction or traffic congestion, resulting in itinerary changes or canceled programs, tour participants may not use this as an excuse to oppose or withdraw from the tour. In case of bad weather, strikes, or unexpected accidents that cause delays in the itinerary, tour participants may not demand compensation or refund of tour fees.
  • The itinerary is for reference purposes only. The company will make appropriate arrangements and adjustments based on the actual situation regarding the tour program, accommodation location, and other issues. The possibility of canceling programs due to the closure of attractions or local holidays cannot be ruled out. Tour participants are expected to accept and may not object.
  • The tourist transportation and hotels used by our company, such as airplanes, ships, trains, or buses, have various regulations for the safety of participants and issues such as lost luggage, accidents, and property damage. These situations will be handled based on the regulations established by each institution and will not be related to our company. We recommend that participants purchase travel insurance and luggage insurance on their own. For details on how to purchase insurance, please contact the travel agency you registered with or our company directly.
  • The temperature difference between day and night in Europe is substantial, the annual average temperature exceeds 30 degrees for less than two months, and European countries have strong environmental protection awareness. Therefore, hotels in Europe may not have standard air conditioning.
  • If the number of participants is small, We has the right to combine guests of different languages on the same tour bus.

  • I booked through TakeTours.com This tour company is a Chinese-American owned company. This tour is best to get an overview of the different cities in Europe on a budget. Then if you like a city a lot, it is better to go back and explore on your own. You are on the go on this tour. Wake up early and arrive late to hotel. Some hotels are very nice and a few are not so pleasant. Majority of the hotels are away from the city center. At few of the hotels you can manage to take public transportation to the center at night if you have the energy. Some hotels have free Wifi and others you have to pay for. Currently, the company is trying out new accommodations and I believe they may even book hotels the day of stay. At times you have to walk quickly to keep up with the tour leader or to beat the crowds to the restrooms. "Free Time" is more relaxing. This is where you explore the area on your own and have to get back to the bus or meeting spot at a certain time. The pro of taking this tour is that you get to cover a lot of countries in a short period of time. You will have tons of pictures and feel like a world traveler. It will be a memory that will last a lifetime. Many stories will come from this trip, some good and some bad. I guarantee you will laugh. I recommend bringing snacks and water. Plus you will need Euro CASH to pay the city entrance fees, daily five Euro service fee and group activities.
