Hey all! Hope you enjoy this list of general Europe travel tips, and let me know in the comments if there are any specific country/city videos you'd like to see 🙂 Full list of tips here: https://happytowander.com/europe-travel-tips/
About scaffolding…. Experienced that when I visited Zagreb last summer. Recovering from the earthquake, Zagreb Cathedral was closed and was undergoing renovations. But I made do.
Are there any European countries where Asian racism is prevalent? Is France one of those countries?
My husband and I are starting in Croatia and are wanting to tour to see a good place to live. Any good suggestions?
Thank you for all this information but my God. I find it Really really confusing and a bit scary.
Given the present situation (since January 20), I'll add another travel tip to Americans in Europe: pretend you're Canadian.
Interesting
I want to travel to Eroup for the first time for my 50th birthday. Can you give advice. I have reviewed a few tour options .it seems whole trip I should pack and pack my suitcase.
this was really helpful, much appreciate
how about march? planning march 7-24? hmmmm
fantastic tips , thank you xx😄
Not in Europe, but the first time I saw the Flat Iron building in NYC there were scaffoldings. So I understand the feeling
Just starting to plan our trip and your videos are amazingly informative without a lot of extra content. Thank you !
Will my cell phone work there? Do i need anything special?
Your videos are so helpful! I’ve been to Europe a couple of times but these tips will make my trips even better! Thank you for all the information you share with us ❤
no 1 should be not admitting that you voted for Trump
You speak so fast it makes me nervous to listen. But thank you for the video.!
you can fold the pillow.
hii what is best way to travel europe cruise or not?
You are NOT lying about that construction on old things. For me it was Amsterdam Centraal. Broke my heart 😂
I want to start traveling and I’m so scared because I plan to travel by myself and I honestly don’t know how much to save. I’m from Texas 😭 anyone know how much I should save? I’m a total beginner
Sooo goood. Just great. Direct. ❤. One of the best videos
Is a river cruise a good way to travel?
LOL, that last tip. We were in Egypt 1 time and I kept raving to my travel companion about scenes from The Mummy and Mummy Returns. For some reason he'd never seen them but soon realised he should've and watched when we got home.
Amazingly helpful video! Since I came across your channel I haven't been able to stop watching. Thanks for such detailed research! I'll seriously profit from it in my next trip ❤
Nice
Kind of good recommendations. Only very few points that might be improved 😀
For example 3/101 is partially correct, but during main school vacations more people are leaving many major tourist cities than getting visitors; my preferred month for visiting Paris for example is August (not 2024 due to Olympics).
15/101 is correct on not renting a car – but the "vignette" for motorways is only a minor of the possible problems. And the vignette is not necessarily automatically checked, nor is there an automatic scan at a border for such a vignette. Quite a number of interesting places have no car access or do not allow cars that have not special authorisation. Parking can be limited and is often expensive. Road information (for road signs) is usually in local language only.
65/101 might be worth to mention that "local" cuisine is seldom "national" but regional. Go where possible for regional food specialties (as mentioned in 75 at leat a little bit).
66/101 does not work everywhere, many hotels offer better breakfast at lower prices than a traveler can get, especially if not familiar with a place. Many places in Europe simply have no local bakery any more. Often enough I get a hotel breakfast that is sufficient for skipping lunch.
83/101 VAT is not that simple, a customs export confirmation is always required first, procedure depends on country, the VAT is refunded by the seller (in fact its a tax exemption for exports) often but not always done by some specialised offices. Products may not be used before export procedure is completed.
THANK YOU! I just booked my car service in Hamburg through Welcome Pickups. Love getting off a long haul plane flight and not having to use my brain to contact an Uber!
If you can also explain how to use some of the apps you use…like staring google maps…I’m clueless 😂
Country specific videos would be amazing! Thinking of doing a backpacking trip from Germany to France to London with adult kids. No idea where to start.
Great video❤
thanks for sharing. Another tip is to see if there is a recent discount on the railway before traveling.
I watch many many videos, but I really love your style and the info! Awesome – thank you!
The Trevi Fountain was also under renovations when we went too. Then Big Ben (years later) was also being renovated and this year I was in Paris during the Eiffel Tower strike and of course Notre Dame is still being restored. Returning in January to Paris and hoping for better luck.
Have you done tips on Portugal?
Don't be disappointed by scaffolding!! Many yrs ago, I went to NYC with a friend, as we rode the ferry over to see the Statue of Liberty… What we saw was Lady Liberty in prison. It made me sad!!😂
Thanks for making the video! So helpful!
I also want to share that TrainPal is another great app you guys might want to consider! many offers I just used! so far so good
Do you use a SIM card while traveling or sign up for cellular international service – appreciate your advice
How good are those scratchy maps!! Love those, you have done a great job compiling this list! Always good to watch out for scams, they are everywhere!
Thanks a lot! I watched from beginning to the end and they are very useful!! Will check your other videos since I'm going to Spain and Portugal in Oct!
All airport bs an travel logistics sn millions of apps Just make me hate travel !
Great video. I want to share with you one more tip that there is an amazing deal for European train tickets with a 5% discount! It works for tickets all across Europe.
This is a great video. Very helpful. Wow. Thank you.
What??? You mean I can’t go to Europe stay there as long as I want, and collect cash and benefits? Ugh.
Very informative but you are talking too fast
hiyee! do i have to prebook a locker on the train stations? or is it something u can do on the spot?
