Gondola Rides

There is more to family travel in Europe than the Acropolis, Eiffel Tower, Trevi Fountain and Tower Bridge. Visit medieval castles and weave tales of dragons, dungeons, damsels and even Frankenstein. Tour Roman, Greek and Celtic ruins but beware of the English penchant for old stones or soon you will be touring everything! Explore sun-drenched islands off the coast of Spain, Italy, Greece and Croatia. Bike on country roads from Ireland to Austria. Take a river cruise or barge holiday through the heart of old Europe. Discover the fjords in Scandinavia. Ride the Hogwarts Express from Fort William to Mallaig in the Scottish Highlands or take a scenic train trip from Chur to Martigny in Switzerland. Hike in the Alps and Pyrenees or trek across Corsica. But don't expect to spot wildlife, imagine stunning scenery instead. Our family travel guides will help you discover how to travel in Europe with kids.
