You’re not in Europe every week, so seize the day and say yes to something you might never get the chance to do again. You’ve probably got plenty of ideas, but with our friends at Get Your Guide we've found you some of the most popular things to do in Europe. When in Rome…
Visit the Vatican
You can’t leave Rome without a visit to the Vatican. Spend a day discovering the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel and St Paul’s Basilica, and maybe even catch an audience with the Pope. It can be a long wait to enter the museums in high season, so we recommend booking a ticket in advance that lets you skip the line.
Explore Ancient Rome and the Colosseum
Go back in time with a guided walking tour of the Colosseum, Roman Forum, and Palatine Hill. Learn about the Roman Empire, see Julius Caesar’s tomb, and stop at the main street of Ancient Rome, the Via Sacra.
Spend a day at Disneyland Paris
The most visited theme park in Europe has got to be on your list, right? Whether you’re traveling with children or you’re just a big kid, Disneyland Paris is the perfect day trip. Day tickets are very reasonable, and it’s super easy to reach by public transport.
Climb the Eiffel Tower
Love it or hate it, the Eiffel Tower is a must-see if you’re in Paris. Book ahead to skip the lines and take the lift or climb the stairs to be rewarded with the most spectacular view over the city. Then rest your feet and see the city up close with a boat tour along the Seine.
Catch a Moulin Rouge show
If feathers, rhinestones and sequins are more your thing, you need to get yourself to the Moulin Rouge. Book in advance to see one of the world’s most famous cabaret shows while dressed in your best and sipping on Champagne. It’s an experience you won’t forget any time soon.
