We realise that everyones dierent, which is

why all our trips include heaps of free time to

play and explore. Its your trip, your way.

Your trip includes all the must-see, must-do

activities and top-notch local fare to recharge

those batteries between stops, which means

you can spend your money where it matters and

new places to see and unforgettable travel

experiences to make our passengers trips just

that little bit more awesome.

Thats us, but this is about you. Its time to live

large, dream bigger and squeeze life for all its

THE GREAT EUROPEAN BUCKET LIST | 05

Pardon my French

Paris is a love aair meant to be

continued. It starts with a romantic

rendezvous under Pont-Marie, a fleeting kiss at

the Eiel Tower and a history lesson at Muse

du Louvre. Its home to the Mona Lisa and Coco

Chanel, Jay-Z went here for his birthday and

kissing in public is encouraged. And dont get us

started on the food.

01

Prague tipples

Its ocially a thing. Prague has the

best beer in Europe (sorry Carlsberg).

Start with classics like Urquell, Staropramen and

Budvar then make your way to local drops like

Kout na umav and Svijansk Ryt. Also, dont

miss one of the best-preserved old towns in

the world, the Lennon Wall and the fact that its

perfectly fine to drink beer at 11am.

02

21 55 121 131105 13510927 49

Dubrovnik dubstep

Also known as Kings Landing.

Sans Lannisters and cloaked men

with swords. The country that brought you

the necktie, Dalmatians and a currency named

after an adorable little rodent, also happens to

host the hottest city in Europe right now. Think

baroque buildings behind medieval city walls,

epic Adriatic Sea sunsets and glitzy nightlife.

03

Sailing the Mediterranean

Life is all about choices. You got three:

Greece, Croatia or Turkey. Then theres

the swimwear dilemma, the snorkeling versus

sunbathing predicament and the impossible

toss-up between jumping back in for a swim and

staying right where you are. Work the tan, live

the dream, forget the rest. Tough life, we know.

04

29 1425957 107 27 10195 9953

Swiss Alps

Theres more to Switzerland than

chocolate. Yodeling and cuckoo

clocks aside, this is one of the most beautiful

places in Europe. For a country that runs like

precision clockwork, theres no shortage of time-

passing opportunities. Take on four languages,

72 waterfalls and the highest railway station in

Europe (3,454m!). Also: cheese fondue.

07

V for Venice

You come for the gondolas and stay

for the gelato. Cruise down ancient

canals or island-hop your way around in a

vaporetto life here runs on cruise control and

so should you. Explore a never-ending maze of

marble churches and historical relics making

up one of the most complicated architectural

contraptions in human history.

08

2523 4943 105 23 10745 53 123

Visca Bara!

This is not Spain. Well technically

it is, but the dierences go beyond

language. This is the stomping ground of Gaudi

and Dali, the gin & tonic is better than the sangria

and locals sco at the work ethics of its southern

neighbours. Expect: hip bars, cosmopolitan

funkiness and a passion for football.

09

Ich bin ein Berliner

Once bitten twice as funky. Despite

nearly three decades of Cold War

politics and bitter separation, Berlin has bounced

back as a hub of tolerance and creativity. Visit

the remnants of the notorious Berlin Wall for a

sobering Throwback Thursday then equalise with

a dose of the citys contagious night vibes.

10

27 1298354 107 5525 49 14187

Once were warriors

There used to be vikings here. But

modern-day Scandinavia is a mix of

stylish hi-tech cities, cosy cottages, fjords and

ridiculously good-looking people. Theres also

the midnight sun, saunas and the home of Santa

Claus. While rune stones have now ocially

been swapped for iPads, Scandinavia remains an

eortless blend between ice age and space age.

05

Greek islands

Yiros, olives and sunshine are all

crucial parts of a balanced diet.

You go to Mykonos for the party, Paros for the

village feel and Santorini for the best sunsets in

the world. Melt away under the Mediterranean

sun by day, party by night and pinch yourself

regularly. If home is where the heart is, it comes

with a blue roof.

09. Eyjafjallajkull is an Icelandic volcano famous for causing the biggest air trac meltdown since WW2.

10. According to our friends at the BBC, its pronounced AY-uh-fyat-luh-YOE-kuutl-uh. Youre welcome.

FACTY BITS SAY WHAT!?DANCE LIKE THERES NOBODY WATCHING,LOVE LIKE YOULL NEVER BE HURT, SING LIKE THERES NOBODY LISTENING, AND LIVE LIKE ITS HEAVEN ON EARTH.WILLIAM W. PURKEY

27 THINGS YOU WILL LEARN IN EUROPE | 07

23. There are 6,243 words to describe snow in the Icelandic language. You dont need to know them.

24. Dpaysement is an untranslat-able French word to describe the feeling of not being in your home country.

25. It could probably also be interpreted as missing wine and cheese.

26. The longest word in the Turkish language is Muvaffakiyetsizle-tiriciletiriveremeyebileceklerim-izdenmisinizcesine.

27. It means as though you are from those we may not be able to easily make a maker of unsuccessful ones, which doesnt make any more sense.

11. Its okay to take two hours to finish one single cup of espresso.

12. Winning the Eurovision song contest can get you a seat in parliament.

13. Prank calling your friends is an acceptable way of saying hello and doesnt mean youre out of credit. In Italy, at least (Google squillo).

14. Croissants pack around 800 calories per bun, yet you just cant stop eating. Why would you?

15. Europeans drink a lot of beer. Good beer.

16. 7 million litres of beer is consumed every year during Oktoberfest alone.

17. Europe holds the records for both the smallest country in the world (Vatican City), as well as the largest (Russia).

18. The Greek island Mykonos is home to 10,000 people and three pelicans.

19. If the Croatian seaside town of Dubrovnik looks like something straight out of Game of Thrones, its because it is (Google it).

20. Hungary is not a misspelling of hungry or hangry.

21. Istanbul is the only city in the world bridging two continents (Europe and Asia).

22. The narrowest street in Venice is 53 centimetres wide at chest level. Challenge accepted.

CUSTOMS PLACES LINGO

Bonappetit!

BON APPETIT! | 09

SOPHIA LOREN

BON APPETIT! | 09

Paris picnic First thought: OMG Im in Paris. Second

thought: Im hungry. Stack up on fresh

baguettes, cheese and pats as we kick things

o with a gourmet picnic under the Eiel

Tower. This is the bread and butter of French

cuisine, which means a lot since they pretty

much invented cooking.

Chomp down some macarons or Instagram

yourself eating your first escargot.

You have arrived.

Fiestas & siestasEat, sleep, repeat. Food coma is a Spanish

institution and no one will sneer at you for

taking a well-deserved nap after lunch.

Lick o plates of tapas and Iberian ham in

Madrid or hit up Barcelona for epic stacks of

freshly caught seafood. If you want to blend

in, swap your jug of sangria for a red wine

and coke, the best unlikely drink mix to hit the

streets since avocado coee (yep, its a thing).

Nom nom nom.

Cold war cuisine Its all about the meat and potatoes. And lots

of cheese. Tempered by years of communist

rule, Eastern European cuisine is known for

simple, yet hearty comfort food and

robust flavours.

Start with classics like goulash and

borscht; then dig a bit deeper and youll

find scrumptious street food and plenty of

gastronomical glasnost. Your must-do foodie

list includes street stall Lngos in Hungary,

stung yourself on pierogis (Polands response

to gyoza) and the best thing since sliced bread:

the Smaen Sr fried cheese sandwich. Czech

it out.

Stars & forksThis is probably the best lunch you will

ever have. The little French township Grasse is

synonymous with perfume, lavender fields and

rolling hills. Its also the birthplace of Jacques

Chibois brainchild La Bastide Saint-Antoine, a

Michelin two-star rated restaurant famous for

its unique blend of flavour and fragrance.

Prepare for local specialties like olives, trues

and Mediterranean seafood cooked up with a

unique mix of herbs, spices and perfumed floral

scents. There is also a thing called olive oil ice

cream and you should eat it.*

Topdeck Inclusion.

Hungry? Check out our European Taste Trail trip on p. 121.

*Menu items at La Bastide St-Antoine change daily and availability of specific items cant be guaranteed.

My kitchen rules: ItalyIf youre looking for spaghetti and meatballs, youre in the wrong place. In fact, Italians are still wondering about who this Alfredo guy is and why tourists are asking about him.

Think regional and go to Tuscany to find out what tomatoes really taste like, discover the pizza and pastry scene of Rome and hit up Venice for a primer in risottos, scallops, scampi and cuttlefish. The old rules still apply: avoid English menus, menus with pictures and long menus. Delizioso!

MARTINA TRIP LEADERMartina is a former Swedish florist

turned full-time globetrotter with a

resum including everything from

climbing Kilimanjaro to 12 years

experience shooting air guns.

INSIDE TIP:

The best burgers in Berlin can be found in

a converted, green public toilet box. Walk

along the East Side Gallery, cross the bridge

and follow the railway and youre there.

EMILY TOPDECK CHEFEmily has been cooking up a storm on

the road for three years. She doesnt

like to blow her own trumpet, but we

know for a fact that her Tiramisu has

sent many young travellers to cloud

nine and back.

INSIDE TIP:

Florentine steak like most Italian dishes

should be written in all caps, and nothing

beats sipping on an espresso with the old

boys in any city in Italy.

ISHTI DRIVERIshti was an ice hockey-playing engineer

in a previous life, but always knew deep

down that he was destined for a life

on the road. These days he makes sure

you get to your destination in comfort

and style.

INSIDE TIP:

Dubrovnik is one of the most romantic cities

in Europe. Nothing beats huddling up at a

cocktail bar outside the city walls to take in

the spectacular Adriatic Sea sunsets.

DAVID TRIP LEADERMost of us know David as Dragon

after an unfortunate incident with a

hot currywurst gave him a nosebleed

in Germany. Hes also a fountain of

knowledge of all things Europe (not

related to sausage).

INSIDE TIP:

Theres a cool miniature museum tucked

away in the castle district of Prague

exhibiting things like a tiny train sculpted on

top of a human hair and a 3.2 mm replica of

the Eiel Tower!
