Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from he safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain.
Hello everyone!
I’m Brendon, your Travel Director, and I’m so happy to welcome you to this journey through beautiful Europe!

From joining our WhatsApp group for updates, to checking your daily itinerary, exploring our optional experiences, or browsing some helpful tips and FAQs, it’s all here to make your trip smoother and more enjoyable.
I’m truly excited to be traveling with you. If it matters to you, it matters to me — and I’m always here to help with anything you need.
Let’s make this an unforgettable adventure together!
I was born in the small rural town of Cobram, Australia. At 21, I set off on what was meant to be a six-week holiday to Europe — and I never looked back. I fell completely in love with the continent, and it has shaped who I am ever since. Europe’s rich culture, deep history, and vibrant way of life captured my heart and sparked a lifelong passion.
For over 25 years, I’ve had the privilege of working as a Tour Director, most of that time with Trafalgar Tours. I’ve guided groups through the heart of Europe — from the charming capitals of the East to the iconic sights of the West. Whenever I can, I choose to be here, because I truly love Europe and everything it offers.
I can’t wait to share that love with you — through stories, sights, and unforgettable moments that bring this incredible continent to life.
We’re delighted to welcome you to the Eternal City!
