What people love about Europe Tours for Seniors
- Europe's Highlights
Our tour guide and driver were excellent. Our schedule was very busy and we took in an incredible amount of sights which we really appreciated. We found the schedule a bit hectic and on future Cosmos trips we will select tours that are a bit more laidback.
- European Experience (Start London 2025, 14 Days)
The tour was more than we expected, visiting places we only ever dreamed of, with John our great & informative guide
- European Whirl (Summer, End Paris, 14 Days) (15 destinations)
We had an absolute blast. Met new people that we still remain in touch with. Our guide was very knowledgeable and extremely entertaining. We couldn't fault the accommodation, meals or the bus driver. We loved that everything was arranged for us and all we had to worry about was waking up on time for breakfast. Will definitely recommend Trafalgar and their exceptional service. Winter in Europe was magical and we loved the Christmas markets but our highlight was spending a day with locals in Switzerland and the horse drawn carriage ride through the snow. Just beautiful.

What dining arrangements are made to accommodate seniors' dietary needs?
Your tour includes daily hotel breakfasts and select group dinners at vetted restaurants.

A TourRadar reviewer noted: "The restaurants were very accommodating of our dietary restrictions and the tour director always ensured we had suitable options available."
What is the best time of year for seniors to tour Europe?
Plan your visit during spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) for pleasant temperatures and smaller crowds at attractions.

One TourRadar review stated: "We went in September when the weather was perfect and attractions were less crowded."
