November 11, 2025by: Addison HidlayOverall amazing, love using this company every time. Never fails to exceed my expectations. The counselors go above and beyond! Going into my first trip a few years ago, I was nervous and didn’t know what to expect, but once I found the counselors and met more friends I had bonds that lasted a lifetime. This program creates everlasting friendships and memories that stick with me. Best teen travel company out there. So many places to go, highly trained professionals, amazing views , food, hotels, and more.
10/10 would recommend, lots of new friends and memories.

Euroventure made it crazy easy!
October 28, 2024by: Gina BProgram: Western Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
I went into this not knowing what to expect. I had never traveled before, and I didn’t wanna have to deal with all of the crazy planning. Euroventure made it crazy easy! They literally did everything! They also have great response time to email. The actual trip itself was phenomenal! I did the 2 week Western group tour and it was great. Tom was an amazing guide who had some fun facts about the places we visited. He was always around for a good talk and he’s just a pretty cool guy. Tom is 100/10 and so was this trip! :)
I felt well looked after and safe with our tour guide David.
October 22, 2024by: OliviaProgram: Bohemian Europe Group Tour: 3 Weeks
This is the first inter-railing trip I have been on and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour was well organised and did not feel rushed. Euroventure have made it so convenient to travel round Europe, this is really beneficial for those without much travelling experience. I felt well looked after and safe with our tour guide David. The hostels we stayed in were clean and comfortable. The activities available did not disappoint and complimented each city really well. There is flexibility in the days schedule so it is easy to explore independently or stay with the tour leader. I am so happy I booked to do this trip and have no regrets. I would highly recommend doing a group tour with Euroventure. No doubt I will use them again to explore more of Europe.
An amazing week

The iron curtain tour was an amazing week!!! Saw so many beautiful places and met many beautiful people , wd 100% recommend, bless up daddy David our tour leader for taking us all under his capable wing and making the week what it was
I had one of the best months of my life while traveling with Euroventure on the whole of europe tour!
October 22, 2024by: Estie LonglandProgram: Whole of Europe Group Tour: 4 Weeks
I had one of the best months of my life while traveling with Euroventure on the Whole of Europe tour! It was my first backpacking and inter-railing trip I have done, and would recommend it 100%. The trip was planned so well and was extremely secure and precise. Thank you to my group leader, Catherine, and Richard for the help of organizing my trip. I will use Euroventure again and have already recommend them to all of my family and friends!
Had the best time of my life so far on this tour!
October 22, 2024by: AnonymousProgram: Bohemian Europe Group Tour: 3 Weeks
Had the best time of my life so far on this tour! I loved having the option to travel in a group of people around my age, as it felt like a much safer way to travel and I made new friends which was brilliant. The included activities were great, as well as the optional ones, as they gave us the opportunity to learn more about the cities we were staying in and experience each place as best as possible for the short time we'd be staying for. The tour leader helped us get from place to place smoothly and it would be difficult to improve the experience, overall! The only problem is that I will have to save up for the next tour, as I would love to book with Euroventure again, soon!
Easily one of the best experiences of my life
October 22, 2024by: Holly BatesProgram: Whole of Europe Group Tour: 4 Weeks
Going on the Whole of Europe group tour was easily one of the best experiences of my life. I met some amazing people and visited many incredible places during my 4 weeks and thanks to Euroventure, the trip always felt safe and supported. Euroventure were always friendly and ready to answer any questions I had about my trip which was very reassuring. All the included/optional activities were a great opportunity to get to know the group while providing memorable experiences I'll never forget and our tour leader Catherine was the best leader ever! Cannot wait to book another tour :)
This was a top option!
October 22, 2024by: LynetteProgram: Berlin to Budapest Group Tour
As someone who'd never been interrailing before, and was in desperate need of a holiday but didn't know where to start with booking all the travel/accommodation this was a top option! All the staff were really helpful from before and all the way through to the end! Shout out to David for ferrying us around and supplying good bants (not nasty bants :p)! And despite being in a group I had the freedom to peel away and explore the cities by myself too when I wanted :) Only bad thing is that I wish I was staying longer than a week! I will definitely use Euroventure again, and if you're thinking of doing it, go for it! :D
Tom is the best tour guide i’ve ever had in my life
October 14, 2024by: JackProgram: Whole of Europe Group Tour: 4 Weeks
Tom is the best tour guide I’ve ever had in my life and showed me everywhere i needed to go to have a incredible time. tom has the best fashion sense like there is no competition ?? he always plays it cool in stressful situations and is very easygoing and just a amazing human. would book again, only if it was with tom though
The perfect balance for those who want freedom to travel but don’t want the stress of booking!
October 14, 2024by: Emily BorgmanProgram: Whole of Europe Group Tour: 4 Weeks
Euroventure answered all of my ridiculous questions with kind & thoughtful responses. I was so relieved they took care of all bookings and scheduling for travel and accommodations. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable (shoutout Tom) and had helpful recommendations. It was nice to have a group to come back to after a day of adventure and do activities with. It’s the perfect balance for those who want freedom to travel but don’t want the stress of booking!
The last 4 weeks have honestly been the best and I know I've made friends for life!
October 14, 2024by: AnonProgram: Whole of Europe Group Tour: 4 Weeks
The 4 week whole of Europe group trip really couldn't have gone better and this was mostly because of how easy Euroventure made it to travel. Not having to worry about booking trains and hostels myself allowed me to enjoy the adventure so much more and our tour leader Tom was absolutely brilliant. He was knowledgeable and fun and we all knew we could go to him if we had any problems or questions. The included activities were also all very fun and made the trip really good value for money. The last 4 weeks have honestly been the best and I know I've made friends for life!
Best 2 weeks of my life
October 14, 2024by: Harry DunkleyProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
Absolutely amazing experience with an amazing tour leader Tom. The other group members were all amazing and as this was my first solo trip I couldn’t be happier with the results. Best 2 weeks of my life and would highly recommend euroventure to anyone wanting to get out their comfort zone and travel. 5 stars anyday!
One of the best experiences of my life
October 14, 2024by: Izzie SowelsProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
I have just been on the Central Europe trip, which was my first time solo travelling and joining a group. I can honestly say that this trip has been one of the best experiences of my life. It has been incredible to see Europe with the new friends I made in my group, who were all so lovely. Our leader Tom has also been amazing, and his knowledge and positivity while leading us through different cities to see as much as we could really helped to make the experience even better. I will definitely be recommending Euroventure to my friends, and hopefully I will be able to sign up for another tour in the future.
An unforgettable experience!
September 26, 2024by: LiamProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
Just finished the first 2 weeks of the whole of Europe group tour. Highly recommend this tour as it was a blast. The main benefit of this tour was spending 2-3 nights in most places to get a proper taste of the locations instead of travelling most days. Our tour leader Tom did an exceptional job getting us around. It was nice not having to worry about all of the travel logistics. Very fun to hang out with Tom and the group and have made some lifelong friendships. Thanks to the Euroventure team for an unforgettable experience!
I had the best time and would really recommend euroventure to anyone who doesn't necessarily have people to travel with or don't want to go alone.
September 23, 2024by: LisaProgram: Western Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
I have just returned from the 2 week Western Europe group tour. It was amazing experience to visit Venice, Rome, Florence, Nice, Barcelona, Paris and London! I was also able to go to Pisa and Monaco with friends I had met on the trip, thanks to the free time Euroventure had built into the itinerary. This holiday was my first group tour with people I didn't know. I was a bit apprensive beforehand, especially joining in Venice where some people had already been travelling as part of the Whole of Europe 4 week tour, but any nerves quickly disappeared when I met great people, was staying in nice hostels and the logistics of travelling between places was all sorted by the fab tour guide Kev! The included group activities in each city was also a highlight! I had the best time and would really recommend Euroventure to anyone who doesn't necessarily have people to travel with or don't want to go alone. The people answering queries in the office are really helpful to! If I could give more stars I would and am definitely going to consider doing another trip with Euroventure sometime! ?
An unforgettable 2 weeks!
September 21, 2024by: Jamie DehouckProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
The perfect way to properly see Europe via train. Euroventure exceeded my expectations with safe and convient group travel. I would have defiantly missed half of the beautiful sites and activities without our guide Tom. Thank you Tom and Team for an unforgettable 2 weeks!
Could not recommend Euroventure enough!
September 21, 2024by: GeorgiaProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
I recently went on the 2 weeks Central Europe group tour and could not recommend Euroventure enough! All my questions were answered really quickly, so knew what to expect from the trip. The price was very reasonable for the Hostels we stayed at and the activities included! The included activities were perfect for each city. I also met some amazing people which made the trip unforgettable! Our tour leader, Tolly, was really helpful but also felt like he was just one of the group!
I had the best time on my two-week trip around Europe
September 21, 2024by: LaurenProgram: Central Europe Group Tour: 2 Weeks
I had the best time on my two week trip around Europe with Tom and our group, everyone was so nice and Tom never failed to be knowledgeable and helpful with whatever questions we had for him. All the included activities were fab and everyone seemed to enjoy them! I have done a group tour like this before and I think the itinerary of this one worked a bit better for a large group. We had more free time to explore on our own which meant everyone got to see all the things they wanted to in each place rather than everyone having to do the same route and visiting sights they didn't have any interest in. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone whether travelling alone, with someone or even in a little group as we had all of these on our trip and the group dynamic was great! Thank you Tom and everyone on our tour, you all made the trip a great one! :)
