Dear Vacations To Go Customer,

Today, I'd like to cover some of our best-selling tours in Europe, listed below in no particular order. Click any link to see itineraries, departure dates and money-saving offers.

On Northern Italy's Highlights & Cinque Terre, guests enjoy wine, pesto and cheese tastings and a risotto lunch at a rice factory. Other activities include a cruise along Cinque Terre's coast and a visit to the Ferrari Museum (10 days, Globus).

Visit Lisbon's Hieronymite Monastery and Belem Tower, Evora's cathedral and the gardens at Palacio de Mateus on Best of Portugal. You'll also have a traditional lunch at a stud ranch in Algarve and dinner with wine at a family-run vineyard (11 days, Trafalgar).

See ancient sites and stunning coastlines on a route from Palermo to Rome on Southern Italy & Sicily. Explore Agrigento's Valley of the Temples, the ruins of Pompeii, the carved cave dwellings of Sassi de Matera and more (13 days, Collette).

The Swiss Alps are on display on Switzerland and Austria. View Chillon Castle from the shores of Lake Geneva, eat dinner at a farm near Salzburg, spend time at mountain resorts in St. Moritz and Zermatt and join a guided walking tour of Zurich's old town (13 days, Trafalgar).

Irish Adventure highlights the scenery and must-see sites along Ireland's coastline. Attractions include a whiskey distillery in Dublin, Waterford's crystal factory, the Stone of Eloquence in Blarney, the dramatic Cliffs of Moher and Giant's Causeway (8 days, CIE Tours).

On The Irish Pub Tour, explore Ireland's spirited pubs while learning about the country's folk traditions and tales. Sample whiskey and chocolate in Killarney, visit Europe's oldest pub in Athlone and sip an Irish coffee as you cruise on a replica Viking longship (8 days, CIE Tours).

A Week In... Scotland offers a scenic journey through the Scottish Highlands. See historic castles, take a private tour of the Highlands' oldest single malt distillery and watch a bagpipe and dance performance over dinner in Inverness (8 days, Tauck).

Travel to popular destinations like Champagne, the Loire Valley and Burgundy on Classic France. See the Arc de Triomphe and Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Roman aqueduct in Avignon, Dijon's Ducal Palace and the fairy-tale Chateau de Chenonceau (14 days, Gate 1 Travel).

Glories of Greece explores the country's mainland on a round-trip route from Athens. Visit a monastery atop Meteora's rock formations, walk through the Lion's Gate at Mycenae and tour Olympia, site of the original Olympic Games (7 days, Insight Vacations).

Take a panoramic tour of the British Isles on Britain and Ireland Delight. The Yorkshire Dales, Edinburgh's Royal Mile, the Waterford Crystal Showroom and Cardiff Castle are some of the highlights of this itinerary (10 days, Costsaver).

On each of the above vacations, you'll travel with a professional driver in a deluxe motor coach (and occasionally by train), so there's no need to worry about maneuvering a rental car along foreign roads. You'll be accompanied by a tour director with deep knowledge of each destination's history and culture. He or she will help you overcome any language barriers.

Your hotels, guided sightseeing, ground transportation and some meals are purchased in advance by travel companies with bulk buying power, saving you as much as 40% off the price of planning an equivalent itinerary on your own.
