From leprechauns and shamrock we fly right into the Red Light district. In three nights we explore the tiny alleys, countless Gracht’s and the home of Heineken beer. Discover Rembrandt’s and Van Gogh’s paintings in the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh museum follow Ann Frank’s story into the Annex in Prinsengracht. South we fly to Cataluña and spend four nights by the Mediterranean Sea, in Barcelona. We get to know the city on bicycles and see how well you pay attention at our Barcelona Treasure Hunt. We can’t be in Spain without a little Sangria party, and you might want to challenge each other on the Go-cart – Grand Prix track in training, qualifying, and race like a real Formula 1 pilot. Want some contrast &#8211; we take you from the beaches of Barcelona straight into to the Pyrenees mountains in an hour. Enjoy a trip of your lifetime after four years of hard work in college. See you in Europe – you deserve it!</td>

<td>Today our adventure in south Italy starts with the historic site of Pompeii, the city that was buried under the ashes of Mount Vesuvius. We’ll take our lunch break where you can try the probably best Pizza in Italy. In the afternoon we climb Mount Vesuvius and enjoy the breathtaking view from the top of the vulcano. We head further down south to Positano and explore the Grotta dello Smeraldo, where you can put on your swimsuit and jump into the Meditarreanean. Scala is our destination for the next two days where we experience southern Italian hospitality and the beautiful Amalfi coast. A cultural and culinaric day is ahead of us as we discover the historic city of Amalfi, sample pastries at the oldest Pasticceria of Amalfi, shop and taste Limocello on our way back to the hotel. We finish our trip with the greek temples of Paestum and a delicious dinner on the coast before it’s time to say farewell.</td>

<td>Sbasiba Travelers! This week full of contrast will show you the remains of the dictatorship Ceausescu’s with his communist mindset, the fantastic countryside in the Carpathian Mountains and the legend of Count Dracula. Let’s start in the middle of Romania, in Bucharest. It’s been a long time since I found a city so fascinating and weird at the same time. There are remains of little palaces in the middle of the city, next to communist concrete blocks that are neighbored by modern 5 star hotels with glass facades. We head right into the former King’s City, Brasov to see a totally different Romania. The German influence makes this city very organized with a cute main square and the black church. There’s no way around visiting Dracula’s castle in Bran where you can imagine what was going on after sunset. While in the Carpathian Mountains we’ll have to sample bear meat, yes bear. We continue to the World Culture City 2007, Sibiu, with its cute buildings and beautiful National Parks. Our final stop is once again Bucharest for shopping, styling and Dinner &amp; Crime at the Hanul Manuc.</td>

<div>Come join me in the capital of leprechauns and start a journey through the fantastic landscapes of Europe’s green island. It might be a bit dangerous as last time I was up there I was thinking about staying for a while, it’s just an amazing country that feels like you are in your own world once you’re out of the city. We start out exploring the home of Guinness and the Temple Bar district before we head out to the countryside of south and west Ireland. Our way leads us through green meadows, to Kilkenney Castle and further on to Killarney where we discover the beauty of the Killarney National Park, the Queen’s Ladies View and the Ring of Kerry with the scenic little town of Dingle. Then we head north to Limerick and use the opportunity to see the stunning Cliffs of Moher, Bunratty Castle and St. Mary’s Cathedral and get us a venue with live music in the evening. Angela’s Ashes are on our itinerary as well as an Irish folklore evening to bring you closer to Celtic culture. We finish our taste of Ireland back in Dublin with a nice farewell dinner and some pubs. Don’t worry if you’re not a fan of black beer, there are plenty of other things to try – I’ll make sure of that!</div>

<div>Welcome Europe – Hello Asia. We will be in between two continents for the next five nights enjoying the exotic flair of Istanbul, the city that connects Europe and Asia. We jump right into the middle of the sultan’s city, by the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and the Byzantine Hippodrome before we are off across the Bosporus River and set foot on Asian soil. We roam through the Sultan’s Topkapi Palace where we even go through the Harem. There is no way around the Grand Bazaar for some wheeling and dealing before we experience “1001 nights” at a lovely dinner show. We mix in an active day in the Marmara Sea where we proof our fitness during hiking, Inline skating, biking or some water sport activities. Coming back powered out is the perfect time to enjoy a few hours at a Hamam. The orient in one week – not possible, get just a little bit of it and come back to see more.</div>

<div style="text-align: right;"><span style="color: #8ce1f2;"><strong>9 DAYS    PRICE USD 1699 + air</strong><br />
</span></div>
<div>Sunshine, action and party for a week. The Spanish eat late, drink late and go out very late – get ready! Flamenco, tapas, sangria and the relaxed Spanish flair is all yours for a week. In Madrid we start out exploring the Spanish culture and mentality. We roam through the streets of Madrid, sample some Tapas and jump right into the Spanish nightlife. The next day we take a look at the attractions of Madrid on Plaza Mayor, see the Royal Palace and sample some vino. Further south we drive to the coolest city of Andalusia, Sevilla. Some of the best food in Spain is there to be eaten and we take a look at the upcoming bull fighters before we try Agua de Sevilla. From the heart of Andalusia we travel to Catalunya where we spend the next three nights by the Mediterannean Sea, in Barcelona. We explore the city on bicycles and see how well you pay attention during our Barcelona treasure hunt. We can’t come leave Spain without a little Sangria party, and challenge each other on the Go Kart &#8211; Grand Prix track where we race like Michael Schuhmacher or Dale Earnhardt.</div>
