Europe

Our relationship with Europe is deeply personal. I lived in Rome in the past, and my own travels across the continent stretch back to the 1970s. While Rob and I joined forces well before then, we officially began exploring Europe together in 1992. Since then, we have crossed borders in every conceivable way—including an epic journey with our then-toddler son that took us all the way from Paris up to Finland’s Lapland, into Russia, and beyond.

Having returned dozens of times over the decades, we know these countries intimately. Our travels have taken us everywhere from the classic cultural capitals to the remote, windswept edges of the continent, including the rugged Faroe Islands and the massive ice landscapes of Greenland. Our guides skip the generic tourist brochures to give you the practical, real-world insights we’ve gathered from a lifetime on European roads and trails.
