A European dream holiday can come in all shapes and sizes. For some, it’s taking in as many big cities and iconic sights that Europe has to offer, all on the one trip. However for others, its going beyond the bright lights and into the heart of a destination, veering off well-travelled routes and into the less known quiet roads, enchanting villages and hidden gems.
For these inquisitive explorers, Insight Vaca-tions has designed two very distinct styles, Regional Tours and the Country Roads se-ries.
For the traveller wishing to concentrate on a specific region or area, Insight Vacations’ Regional Tours are the perfect fit. With many stays of two nights or more in the one place, these tours are a great way to unwind and soak up the culture of a region - not just ex-periencing its unique way of life, but truly becoming immersed in it.
Venturing to the main cities and far beyond, are the Country Road tours, a specialist
range of leisurely paced itineraries designed to get off Europe’s highways and onto en-chanting country roads to visit picturesque villages. Over a relaxed pace, you’ll discover the scenic secrets of Europe that other tours rarely visit.
Whichever style suits you, Insight Vacations is a holiday of the highest quality. Insight Va-cations’ guests enjoy more intimate groups, limited to just 40 passengers, accommoda-tion in first class to deluxe handpicked hotels that are centrally or scenically located and a unique mix of transport ensures you always travel in style, whether it’s a world class sce-nic rail journey, a charming river boat or by Insight’s luxury coaches, reconfigured with 100 per cent extra legroom for optimum comfort.
Insight Vacations’ 2011 Premium europe and britain product featuring its range of Country Road and Regional Tours is available now from your ICE Vacation consultant who will have program details and your special ICE exchange pricing!
