Welcome to Europe's Country Roads

 


My wife, Wendy, and I have a radically different approach to European travel.  We believe that the people you meet, not the sights you see, create the most unforgettable travel memories.

While many Americans fight crowds to see the Mona Lisa in the Louvre or the crown jewels in the Tower of London, we prefer to travel
Europe’s Country Roads

 

We visit Europe's villages and see sights, not in American travel guides. We stay on farms because we want to meet and get to know the locals and share their daily lives.   Our goal is to meet and get to know real Europeans.

And you can't do that by paying high prices for a bus tour or river cruise that insulates you from average Europeans. We typically spend three weeks traveling
Europe's Country Roads for the cost of a one-week package tour. During our recent three-week trip to Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, we booked twenty-two nights at an average price of $64 per night. It would be difficult to do that in the US, even at Motel 6 prices. Most of these were on farms in immaculately clean one-bedroom apartments with full kitchens and private bathrooms.  Let us show you how to find these inexpensive European accommodations. 

 


Still not convinced that traveling Europe's Country Roads is the way to travel Europe's back roads? Below are just a few of the fascinating Europeans we have met by wandering Europe's Country Roads.
