Active travellers can now maintain their fitness goals whilst exploring Europe’s iconic destinations on foot while running alongside like-minded adventurers.
Special adaptations of the European Highlights and European Whirl Plus tours now feature 5-, 10- and 15-kilometre through Europe’s most scenic cities, led by a running enthusiast.
Travellers can refuel with post-run brunches and wellness stops, tasting Europe’s finest cuisines and staying energised for the day ahead.
