Insight Sight-Seeing Experience
You round the corner, and there are the incredible fountains and gardens of the summer palace of the Russian Czars at Petrodvorets. Nothing can prepare you for this moment. The excitement of your group, including many new friends, adds to the pleasure. You look around you in awe. Then, with perfect timing, your Tour Director announces it’s time to leave and embark on the next exciting leg of your journey. This is the art of sightseeing at its finest. This is an Insight Vacation.
Great vacations are measured in moments, not miles. Like the moment you first set eyes on Michelangelo’s statue of David in the Florence Accademia, discovered the priceless treasures inside Madrid’s Prado Museum or explored the wonders of the magnificent Hermitage Palace in St Petersburg. Contrast these with a thrilling cog wheel train ride to the summit of breathtaking Mt Pilatus in the magnificent Swiss Alps, visiting the Chateaux of Villandry and Azay-le-Rideau or living the dream as you glide along the ancient canals of Venice on a romantic gondola ride.
Insight Touring Experience
Thanks to Insight’s exclusive Premium Highlights, you’ll never forget the moments the real Europe is brought to life in all its colour and excitement, making your dream vacation come true.
An exclusive feature of an Insight tour is that Insight groups are limited to a maximum of 40 guests, making them smaller, more intimate and friendlier than on other tours. Our luxury touring coaches have been specially reconfigured by removing spare seats to allow up to twice as much legroom than a standard coach.
Additionally, Insight has planned a unique and varied mix of transportation for your delight. Today, you may sail on a leisurely Rhine steamer, tomorrow you could enjoy a scenic Swiss rail journey. There’s an included gondola ride in Venice, a journey on a Russian express train, a spectacular Alpine cable car ride, a cruise on the Norwegian fjords, a felucca cruise in Egypt and much more. One thing is certain: we promise there is no finer way to travel than with Insight.
It takes very special qualities to become an Insight Tour Director. A passion for Europe’s diverse history and culture and the in-depth knowledge of a living encyclopedia. They are your personal storyteller, art expert, historian, interpreter and problem solver - all in one. Time and time again, our guests tell us that it was their Tour Director who really made their trip, steering them through the labyrinth of Europe’s cultures and languages, bringing its magic to life before their eyes. And, because an Insight group is so much smaller, you’ll receive more individual attention throughout your trip and when sightseeing, you’ll be closer to your local guide.
Whether you are travelling with your family or partner, or exploring Europe on your own, we promise that from the moment you join your tour, your Insight Tour Director will begin to work their ‘magic spell,’ breaking the ice and making you feel perfectly at ease. In no time at all you’ll discover your travelling companions from halfway across the world you only met yesterday, are fast becoming lifelong friends.
Insight Dining Experience
You will enjoy included three-course table d’hôte dinners like soups and salads, pasta, paella, fish, chicken or meats, plus dessert and tea or coffee. In Scandinavia, Spain, Germany and elsewhere, mouth-watering regional buffets are often provided. Breakfasts are always included, from full-cooked breakfasts in Britain and Ireland to buffet breakfasts in the local style elsewhere. Should you have special dietary needs, your Tour Director can arrange these for you when informed in advance.
Highlight Dinners are special features on Insight tour’s, at least one on most itineraries and often with wine, beer or soft drinks. They range from a Scottish Highlands Ceilidh to a four-course dinner and Flamenco Spectacular in Seville, a sumptuous Oriental Banquet on a floating palace in Amsterdam or a traditional Gypsy evening in Budapest. It won’t be long before you are drawn into the excitement of the occasion, and it’s a great way to celebrate a magnificent vacation.
