Read on for a few off-the-radar bucket list moments you didn’t know were in Europe, with each one available on an upcoming AESU trip!
Paragliding Over the Swiss Alps
Most people go to Switzerland for the cheese, chocolate, or charming mountain towns, but what about soaring above them instead? In Interlaken, thrill-seekers can paraglide through the alpine air with panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, turquoise lakes, and green meadows far below. It is the heart-pounding and awe-inspiring moment that sticks with you long after your trip ends. Our Great Escape and Euro Focus trips can let you experience this!
Swimming in a Blue Grotto in Capri
Italy’s Amalfi Coast is famous for its cliffside villages and limoncello, but the island of Capri offers one of the most unique water experiences in Europe: the Blue Grotto. This sea cave glows an electric blue as sunlight passes through the water, creating a magical and otherworldly atmosphere. Hop on a small boat, duck under the low cave entrance, and prepare to be amazed. Our Great Escape and Euro Spree trips include this!
Enjoy Sunset Tapas in Seville
Spain’s southern cities offer more than just flamenco and festivals. InN Seville, your engravings come alive with the flavors of local tapas and the golden hue of the sunset over Moorish rooftops. Sharing small plates with friends, accompanied by live music, creates a real sense of place and a perfect blend of cultural immersion and pure indulgence. Our Euro Focus and Euro Spree trips have stops in Seville, so book your spot now!
