Guided Land Tours
Recommended Land Tours
When the journey calls for cobblestone streets, mountain passes, and local tables — these are the guided tour companies Bob trusts for his clients.
Not every great trip involves a boat. Sometimes the best way to experience Europe is on the ground — winding through the Dolomites, strolling medieval market towns, or sitting down to a home-cooked meal with a local family. Bob has personally traveled with both Trafalgar and Globus and recommends them without hesitation.
