18 July - Severe heat in Europe

Parts of Europe are currently grappling with the issue of severe heat. Our local staff are working to make necessary adjustments to itineraries in the areas most severely impacted by the heatwave. These modifications primarily involve scheduling visits to sites either earlier or later in the day, in order to avoid the intense midday heat. Additionally, our team is ensuring that all tour participants stay properly hydrated throughout their journey.

In situations where it is not feasible to continue with planned trips due to the extreme conditions, we have proactively reached out to our customers and provided alternative options. We understand the importance of ensuring the safety and comfort of our travellers, and we are committed to making every effort to minimize any inconvenience caused by these unforeseen circumstances.
