Highlights of April 2025 tours
Looking for a little of everything on your European tour? Then look no further than our 15-day Central Europe exploration that takes you through the captivating capital cities of Vienna, Budapest and Prague, romantic rolling hills and significant historical locations such as Auschwitz. Alongside guided tours of each location, your local leader will share what the cherished drinks, delicious eats and exceptional attractions of each region are. You'll be an expert in Central Europe in no time.
The Gallipoli Peninsula is a significant place for Australians, New Zealanders and the Allied forces due to the significant military battle that occurred there in WW1. Every ANZAC Day (April 25th), a Dawn Service is conducted at the commemorative site to pay remembrance to those involved, especially the people who fought and the lives that were lost. Visit this poignant site during other times of the year in our Turkey tours and Short Breaks from Istanbul.
Travel through the ancient remains of pre-British history in the United Kingdom during a walk along Hadrian’s Wall. Along the journey, you’ll walk beside the forts and structures left behind by the Romans as well as get special glimpses of the Robin Hood tree and castles that are speckled across the English countryside. This trip is a perfect option for history buffs and moderately fit long-distance walking fans.
Intrigued by the icy wonders and tranquil waters of the northern wonder that is Iceland? Then hop aboard a full-circle tour of this incredible country. Our tours will take you from glaciers and waterfalls to the lagoons and the eccentric residential regions of Iceland. April weather can be unpredictable in Iceland but being the off-season, prices are likely to be lower than peak time, you may even see the Northern Lights!

From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises).
However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.
Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.
A tour in Europe can vary depending on the countries you want to visit, the style of tour, and how long you want to go for but you can expect to pay anywhere between USD$1,000 to USD$5,000, with most tours around USD$2,500.
Whether or not you need a visa to travel to European countries largely depends on the nationality on your passport and whether the country you're travelling to is part of the Schengen Agreement. This agreement sees 26 European countries offer visa-free travel to nationals from 60 other countries including Australia, the United States, Canada, Japan, and the United Kingdom.
To determine whether the country you're travelling to requires a visa, head to the Schengen Visa's information website.
