Best Tours in Europe and Asia: Honest Travel Recommendations

Follow our travels: Instagram · YouTube


After visiting 30+ countries, we’ve booked a lot of travel tours across Europe and Asia. These are the best tours we genuinely recommend, including Vietnam day trips, overnight cruises, food tours, wildlife experiences and city tours we would happily book again.

Unfortunately, we didn’t do any vlogging when we travelled around Europe, so you’ll just have to trust us on those ones. For many of our Asia tours though, we’ve linked our videos so you can see exactly what the experience was like before booking.

Some of these links may be affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission if you book through them, at no extra cost to you.


Europe Tours

Bosnia & Herzegovina

Mostar Day Tour From Sarajevo

Where can we even start with this tour? A mixture of history, architecture and a waterfall for a nice swim, this was a really incredible way to get to know what the city is like and what has shaped it.

It's a great tour for anyone who isn't spending too much time in Bosnia & Herzegovina and wants to learn and see as much as possible in one day.

No long walks involved, so this is a great tour for people of all ages.

Mostar Day Tour

Montenegro

Kotor and Tivat Boat Trip in Montenegro

Something we booked as a spur of the moment decision, but we're so glad that we did. Not a party boat, just a nice relaxing day seeing different parts of the coastline and swimming around in the beautiful water.

Our hostel was also offering this tour, but we found it cheaper to book through GetYourGuide.

Tivat Kotor Boat Trip

Malta

Blue Lagoon Malta Boat Tour

The best part of this tour is that it wasn't much of a tour for us. The boat takes you to Crystal Lagoon and Blue Lagoon, and at the first stop you can get off the boat and swim, chill on the land or go for a walk up to Comino Tower.

I would definitely recommend the walk up to the tower. We did this tour in February, so the water was fine for a quick dip but that was it. I can imagine the weather is very hot at other times in the year.

Asia Tours

Borneo

3D2N Kinabatangan River Cruise in Borneo

The best activity we've ever done. Three days and two nights on the Kinabatangan River being immersed in the wildlife, while still being kept very comfortable with nice rooms and huge, delicious meals.

The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely cared about sustainability and animal welfare, which we really appreciated.

Vietnam

Ho Chi Minh City Motorbike Food Tour

The first time was so nice, we had to do it twice. If you like Vietnamese food, do this tour 100%.

You get a bike and guide for every person, and they take you around to genuine local spots that you wouldn't find otherwise, not places just set up for tours and tourists.

The best part is, if you don't like some food, just tell them and they can adjust the tour. We did it with no seafood dishes and they made that adjustment super easily.

Final Thoughts

We’ll keep updating this page as we continue travelling and booking more tours around the world.

Our goal is to only recommend tours we genuinely enjoyed, would recommend to friends and family, or would happily book again ourselves.
