If you have been thinking that coach tours around Europe will be a good choice for your next holiday then you will want to read this article. Specifically we'll discuss costs, destinations and the advantages over other types of holiday. Armed with this knowledge you will be in a better position to organise your next coach trip to Europe.

Coach tours have always been less costly than other ways to travel such as, rail, air or ship. The savings can be substantial, giving you more holiday spending money. There are other savings to be had as you usually aren't charged for extra baggage or hit with a fuel surcharge.

The major tour companies are able to offer good rates at the hotels that their tour coaches stop at as they book accommodation in bulk. Some of these savings are passed on to you when you travel with them. This can also apply to meals and entrance fees payable at many the venues that are part of a particular tour.

Europe is a relatively compact area, with several countries in close proximity to each other. This allows an interesting and diverse tour to be had without having to travel long distances. For example it is quite feasible to visit three different countries in a day and have time to spend shopping or sightseeing in each one.

Being so accessible, it is possible to enjoy a wide range of scenery and experience different cultures without having to travel long distances. Within very short time the scenery can change from the grandeur of the Swiss Alps to the rolling countryside and forests of Germany. Go in the opposite direction and one can be enjoying the splendour of the architecture of Rome one moment and, shortly after, be gazing in wonderment at the beauty of Italy's Amalfi Coast.

Travelling by air would seem to have the advantage of getting to the destination a lot quicker than going by road. This might be so on long haul flights but, given the small size of Europe, by the time the air traveller has boarded the aircraft, a tour bus could be well on its way to the first port of call.

Most bus tours have the benefit of an experienced guide who will look after all the details of your trip, such as timing, hotel reservations and entry to any special attractions. The guide will usually give a commentary when the coach is passing an interesting spot. This is a great way to learn something about a new country.

Visitors can get a better experience of the country that they travel through when they go by road. The coach will stop at well-known beauty stops where folks can get out to stretch their legs, take photographs and generally enjoy the sights. Try that on an aircraft!

Another, often overlooked, aspect of travelling by coach is that it gives you the opportunity to meet new people and perhaps make new friends. You don't feel quite so isolated in a strange country when you are part of a group.

As can be seen from the above paragraphs saving money is not the only reason why you might decide to take a coach tour around Europe. The vast range of destinations and scenery will spoil you for choice and you might need to take more than one tour. This is a feasible option when the costs of other types of holiday are compared.
