Did you miss the romance this Valentine’s Day? Never mind, Albatross Tours has it year-round, with an incredible array of European tours featuring dreamy hotels and romcom-worthy experiences. Forget one day of passion; with Albatross Tours, you can enjoy a romance-sprinkled holiday, with 2025 summer and autumn departures guaranteed to run!
Award-winning Albatross Tours have a passion for Europe. As evidenced by their carefully crafted itineraries to some of the world’s most desirable destinations.
Their knack for choosing hotels that wow and discovering tour inclusions that dial up the romance set them apart from the crowd. We’re not talking about tour inclusions like a bog-standard gondola ride, but the special touches that leave a lasting impression.
A slow affair
Albatross Tours also offers their guests the gift of time, with many stays of at least three or four nights (up to five in summer, and seven in winter!) to enjoy the region at a relaxed pace.
Everyone knows that romance is a slow affair; there’s nothing romantic about dashing from place to place! Especially when seeing Europe’s most swoon-worthy landmarks and destinations.
Albatross Tours carefully curate their itineraries to include longer stays for more immersive experiences. The kind that give every guest time to enjoy the big sites and the special moments.
True romance
While Albatross aren’t purposefully creating Valentine’s Day-ready tours, they are big softies at heart and feature many incredible inclusions that just so happen to be very romantic, too.
Don’t believe us? Check out these idyllic sites:
- Grotto de Matera: There’s something so intimate about exploring this former cave abode. Found in Matera, in the ankle of Italy’s boot, this typical Sassi home is included on the 17-day Italy, the Deep South & Sicily tour. Four nights in picturesque Taormina also keeps the romance flowing. The Excelsior Palace Hotel Taormina is just steps from the centre. From $10,987 per person twin share.
- Cappadocia hotel: In keeping with the cave theme, Turkey’s famous Cappadocia caves also wow. The lighting, attention to detail, and welcoming staff at Hotel Dere Suites, plus a hot air balloon ride over Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys would make it a challenge to not feel wooed here. Discover this and more on the 24-day Istanbul to Athens Cradles of Civilisation tour. Other stops include Gallipoli, Mykonos, Santorini, and more. From $18,887 per person twin share.
- The terrace at Su Gologone Hotel: This Sardinian Experience hotel impresses with its expansive views from the pretty terrace. You’ll be grateful for three incredible nights at this gorgeous location, leaving you with ample time to enjoy the terrace – from lazy breakfasts to heart-to-hearts. Stay here on the 15-day Sardinia & Corsica, the Lands of Myths & Legends tour. From $9,347 per person twin share.
- Winter walks: Hopeless (or hopeful) romantics love the rugged-up, ruddy-cheeked rosiness of winter. On this unreal 9-day Northern Lights, Ice Hotels & Huskies tour, you can snuggle up at the ICEHOTEL or in front of a roaring log fire. Perfect after days spent exploring Lapland by snowmobile, reindeer, and husky dogs! It’s sold out for 2025; pre-register for February or March departures in 2026.
- Christmas in an Italian Castle This is the stuff of fairytales! Yes, you can spend Christmas in an Italian Castle on this 11-day tour. Departing 18 December and strictly limited to 28 travellers, this dreamy Munich to Milan itinerary includes staying in a 900-year-old castle in the impressive Italian Dolomites, plus Christmas markets, torchlight village walks, and the ‘chocolate box’ village of Hallstatt. From $6,387 per person twin share.
