10 Advantages of Guided Tours

With travel logistics more complicated than ever, everything is taken care of when you go guided.. Your Great European Travel Travel Specialist, on-trip Travel Director, and Driver handle all your logistics, backup up by our 365-day Global Guest Services Team.

Safety stays top of mind for most travelers, no matter where we go. When you go guided, we've already vetted all hotels, venues, and suppliers so you don’t have to. Our protocols are evaluated regularly and our Travel Directors and Drivers constantly monitor and follow established well-being protocols.

From value to all-inclusive luxury, we're your first stop for access to the best itineraries, lowest prices, and your choice of top experiences all in one place. Great European Travel Travel Specialists have access to exclusive discounts and sale prices across award-winning travel brands: that means you get incredible vacations and extra cash in your wallet.

Traveling with a group adds a unique element to your vacation. You’re all there for the same reason: to have fun, relax, experience another culture, and create unforgettable memories.

When you go guided, we’ll introduce you to our worldwide network of Local Specialists so you can experience the world’s greatest cities through their eyes. It’s like visiting a friend excited to show off their favorite places in their hometown.

We’ll introduce you to local culinary scenes in ways you can only imagine — family-hosted meals, farm-to-table gems, famous locales, cooking lessons, celebrated chefs, and so much more. You’ll get an authentic taste of the regional cuisine, enjoyed with locals.

With us, go beyond the guidebooks. You don't just see the top sights - you hear stories, share meals, explore with locals, and more. Learn to shuck oysters on a seafood farm on the Croatian coast. See the Sistine Chapel when it’s closed to the public and enjoy a private dinner at the Vatican Museum. We make that, and plenty more, happen.

Imagine this...staying in great hotels, enjoying unbelievable culinary experiences, seeing iconic sites with a local by your side, and never worrying about a language barrier or directions. Unwind, explore, and enjoy the scenery - that's traveling at its finest.

Visit famous museums without crowds, take the fast lane past long lines, and never have to worry about making a reservation. Your travel team works to ensure you get the best access to all the must-see sites you’ve dreamed of seeing. VIP treatment? Yes, please.

Your Travel Director is an expert in their field with their finger on the pulse of your destination. You never have to worry if an attraction is closed, about directions, who or how much to tip, or about checking into a foreign hotel. No unpleasant surprises, language barriers, or stress. Simply worry-free travel.
