Best Things to Do in Europe

Adventures and excursions abound in Europe

Wondering what to do in Europe on a holiday? From winter sports in the Alps to water sports in Sardinia, there’s no shortage of things to do in Europe.

While global cities stand out for their distinct blend of old history and new vibes, European countryside is always ripe for exploration and offer more that travelers expect. Cities in Western Europe have a remarkable roster of iconic landmarks, art galleries, and historical neighborhoods to wander in for weeks, if not months. Taking gondola rides, visiting happening pubs, catching an opera performance, or a romantic dinner by the Danube or Seine River are the top things to do in Europe at night.

Let's face it. One lifetime may not be enough to cover all the best things to do in Europe. The city of Glasgow has a vibrant arts scene while Edinburgh has its own distinct attraction – besides having beautiful architecture – in the form of an extinct volcano. Amsterdam gets all the tourist crowd it’s hyped for and rightly deserves. However, Rotterdam is another place that is often overlooked despite having a buzzing nightlife and museums. Brussels has a deep-rooted coffeehouse culture that remains a crowd puller. Travelers can chase down the Northern Lights and indulge in outdoor adventures around Reykjavik which has a legendary nightlife. So, of all the adventurous things to do in Europe, visiting these places is a must.

Spend some time in Portugal to learn why Lord Byron raved about it. In the city of Porto in Portugal, travelers can take in the beautiful views of the Rio Douro and soak in in the vibes of the UNESCO-listed Ribeira District. Lisbon is more upbeat than any other city in Portugal and offers some unusual things to do in Europe. Travelers can lose themselves in charismatic pavement designs, bask in the sun at Ribeira das Naus, catch a bullfight in Campo Pequeno, and stroll through Jardim Botanico da Ajuda in Lisbon. There are plenty of amazing things to do in Europe whether you're on a honeymoon in winter or a family holiday in summer.

When in Rome, do what the Romans did: enjoy la dolce vita. Go on historic tours through Roman Forum, launch Sunday morning shopping spree at the Porta Portese flea market, and toss a coin in the Trevi Fountain. Ancient ruins in Rome are among the top things to see in Europe. Taking vineyards tours in Tuscany, shopping in Milan, gondola rides in Venice, dine on Venetian cuisine, and boat tours along the Amalfi Coast are the best things to do in Italy.

While visiting France, learn the French way of life, or as they call it: Douceur de Vivre and indulge in some fun things to do in Europe. For those looking for popular things to do in Paris can scale and admire views from the Eiffel Tower, pay homage to departed celebrities at Père-Lachaise cemetery, take a picture with the Arc de Triomphe, and plan a day trip to Versailles. It is never a bad idea to culminate a night-out in Madrid or Barcelona with one too many glasses of Sangria and melodies of Spanish guitar.

If you happen to stop by Germany, make sure to attend Oktoberfest which is one of the best things to do in Europe in October. Consider London your oyster as it offers an opportunity to experience the best activities in Europe. Enjoy Thames River cruise to sail past famous attractions, go smell the roses at Hyde Park, explore Trafalgar Square, and take a ride on London Eye. Shopping at Naschmarkt market, tram tours on Ringstrasse and boat rides in Danube River are popular things to do in Vienna – the City of Music.

Skiing in Switzerland, wine tasting in France, attending La Tomatina festival in Spain, boarding a river cruise on the Danube, surfing in Portugal, and sunbathing along the Mediterranean coast are among other popular things to do in Europe.

Nandini's 5 days trip to Europe

We had good ex0erience with Wise hatra starting from visa assistance till the end. Thanks a lot . *Greetings from Nandini Aravind...* Thank you for assisting us with the Austria trip starting from the visa application. *Day 1*: As soon as we reached Vienna , we got freshened up and went on to visit a few places like St. Peter's cathedral and nearby places like Albertina platz . We could attend a violin concert at the cathedral on the same day from 8.30 pm. *Day 2* : As mentioned in the iternary, we went to Schonbrunn Palace and enjoyed the tour. Later, we took a combo ticket and visited Zoo, Desert palace , and botanical garden within 5pm. Zoo should be one of the must visit places as it includes penguins, pandas, koala, polar bears, and more. We did a hike at Schonbrunn, which had an amazing view. The same day, we went to Giant ferris Wheel at the amusement park and wandered around. Personally, I didn't like the ferries wheel much. *Day 3*: We booked train tickets to Melk near Danube Valley. We went on cruise till Krems and returned at around 5 pm to Vienna. We visited the rest of the places near Belvedre, Sisi Museum, etc. *Day 4*: We came to Salsburg by 4 pm and went directly to the St.peter church area. Visited all the nearby platz ,Mirabell platz. *Day 5* : We started to Hallstatt at 8.45 am bus ( had soothing views during the journey) . Reached Bad isch and then took the train to Hallstatt, ferry to lake side. We visited Beanhaus, charnel house, and cathedral. Paying for the bone house was not worth it. Then we went to Skywalk via cable car. Paid around 48 euro per person for Skywalker saltmine. Saltmine tour was really good and interesting . The tour itself was for 1.5 hours. We spent around 4 hours in Hallstatt Hills . By 4.30 pm , we came down and started back . Reached Salsburg at around 6 pm. Just roamed around and bought some gifts for loved ones. Through the journey , we used Google maps to catch the bus, train, and trams and to find washrooms (WC). Best western at Salsburg had very limited options in breakfast compared to the other two places .

Manila's 7 days trip to Europe

I had covered the Central Europe with Street Romero & very impressed. The planning was very detailed & we were given each day’s itinerary on the previous day. The trip was well organised ..just that the hotels at Paris & Venice can be little better. The hotels at Venice didn’t have lift, it was painful to carry all the luggage . Switzerland, Rome , Paris

Ankur's 8 days trip to Europe

"We just returned from our 8 days' trip to Paris and Rome and Team Wise Yatra provided all the required assistance throughout our planning process to ensure that we have a smooth trip. As this was our first trip to Europe, their VISA related assistance was very much appreciated. The team also checked in on us from time to time during our trip, especially on days when we had prior ticket bookings. Information related to cab transfers were also provided in a very timely manner. Couple of weeks before the commencement of our trip, the team conducted a meeting over call, answering any and all of our queries in details to the best of their abilities. Thank you guys at Team Wise Yatra for all your guidance! If you are planning a trip to Europe for the first time, I would recommend you choose Wise Yatra for a lovely experience."

Milind's 7 days trip to Europe

"I had booked our first tour Switzerland through WiseYatra. I was travelling with my 14 year old daughter & I was bit sceptical. This was our first tour to any of the European countries. The team at WiseYatra was very helpful & supporting from the very first day. They helped us hotel booking, Swiss Travel Pass, Visa assistance and most importantly a very good travel itinerary which was not too exhausting considering it was just 6 days & 7 nights tour. We were able to cover almost all the important attractions which was their in our bucket list. Thanks to the entire team at WiseYatra for making our tour very memorable. "

Rupa's 8 days trip to Europe

"My husband and I travelled to France and Italy recently and WiseYatra exceeded all expectations. The itinerary was perfectly planned, balancing adventure with relaxation. The scenic spots we visited were breathtaking, and I especially loved the Eiffel Tower. Everything was well-organized by Madhura and her team, from transportation to accommodations. I never had to worry about a thing. I highly recommend WiseYatra to anyone looking for a hassle-free, memorable vacation. I will definitely be traveling with WiseYatra again and will be recommending them to my friends and family."
