WHAT TO EAT & DRINK IN EUROPE

From pizza to paella, gyros to goulash, croissants to carbonara, and all sorts of delicious soups, stews and pastries in between… European food is simply iconic.

Full English Breakfast (England)

What better way to start your day than with a full English breakfast? It’s hard to beat this classic British dish, piled high with buttered toast, fried bacon, grilled tomatoes, mushrooms, beans, eggs and black pudding. Finish off a full English and you’ll have the energy to go all day.

Coq Au Vin (France)

France is famed for its fine food and Coq au Vin is one of the country’s greatest creations. The dish features chicken braised with wine and served with mushrooms, bacon and garlic. It’s cooked stew-style and is one of the most comforting dishes you’ll find in France.

Carbonara (Italy)

Wondering what to eat in Europe? You can’t miss out on an authentic carbonara in Italy. This beloved pasta dish originated as a coal-miner’s meal in Rome and today is made with egg, black pepper and lashings of Pecorino Romana or Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

PACKING TIPS FOR EUROPE

HOW TO TRAVEL RESPONSIBLY IN EUROPE

Support the local communities

If you’re on the hunt for some great souvenirs or a fantastic meal, point your nose in the direction of locally-owned shops and restaurants. You’ll support local businesses and get an authentic experience.

Be kind to the environment

Europe is beautiful and you can help keep it that way. Cut down on litter by using a reusable water bottle, never leave any rubbish behind, and always stay on the marked paths when hiking in Europe.

Watch wildlife with care

You can take care of our animal friends by never touching or feeding any wild animals. It’s also best to avoid any exploitative wildlife experiences, such as harmful dolphin and whale watching tours.
