When it comes to adventure holidays, you don't have to venture to the ends of the earth to seek out travel thrills. From snowmobile safaris in Iceland and mountain hiking in Italy, to sea kayaking in Croatia and surfing in Portugal, Europe adventure holidays are guaranteed to get your blood pumping. If you're pining for some excitement, and not picky about what kind, head to one of the adventure heavyweights which offer year-round action, be it hiking and biking in the summer or sledding and skiing in the winter. There are the glaciers and geysers in Iceland, the fabulous fjords in Norway and the
dizzyingly high mountain footpaths in Italy's Dolomites. For the water babies among us, Europe is full to the brim with ocean adventures. We can arrange kayaking trips and island-hopping tours off the coast of Croatia, with its hidden coves and calm waters, and pair you up with expert surf instructors in Portugal who will teach you to ride the waves like a pro. Wherever you end up on your Europe adventure holiday, we'll arrange for you to stay in the best luxury hotels, tailor-make a bespoke itinerary packed with memorable experiences and top off your trip with excellent guides and instructors.
