Recap below 👇 📍 Provence, France 🇫🇷 ➡️ Sun-kissed vineyards, sunflower fields as far as the eye can see, and picturesque villages that feel straight out of a postcard. Plus, no jostling for a table at that quaint little bistro? Chef's kiss. 📍 Nafplio, Greece 🇬🇷 ➡️ Greece isn’t just a summer fling! Unlike its island cousins, Nafplio keeps the good times rolling all year long, with its shops, restaurants, and attractions open for business. Explore ancient ruins, sip local wine, and soak up the coastal ambiance without the summer rush. 📍 Leiden, Netherlands 🇳🇱 ➡️ This Dutch gem is like Amsterdam's cooler, calmer sibling.

This is just Part 1, because there are SO many options, we couldn’t fit them all in one video. And contrary to what you might think, they’re not all cities! 🇦🇹 Austria (Vienna): Vienna by public transport? That should be music to your ears! Explore like a true local with a 7 or 14-day Metro pass that unlocks the entire metro, trolley, and bus network. 🇫🇷 France (Paris): Who needs a car when you’re visiting a city that has 16 metro lines serving over 300 stations and an even larger bus network. Our UnTours include 20 single ride metro/bus tickets if you’re staying for a week and also a 5-day Paris Visite transit pass, which covers the city and will take you out to Versailles if you’re staying for two weeks. 🇩🇪 Germany (Rhine River Valley): Explore the breathtaking Rhine River Valley with a digital rail pass (choose 7 non-consecutive days within a month or 15 consecutive days) for unlimited rides on the German rail system. Seniors get a discount on the KD Rhine River boats too, so listen up if you’re over 60! 🇮🇹 Italy (Amalfi Coast): Those gorgeous coastal views? You can see them car-free with regional bus tickets that run between Sorrento and Salerno, hitting all the charming towns in between. Part of the UnTour experience is diving into the local way of life, and that includes how they get around. In these destinations, the public transportation is stellar, making it a breeze to explore and breathe easy (no white-knuckling involved).

Forget the Wi-Fi woes or what time breakfast is being served. In Italy, and especially in the countryside like Tuscany and Umbria, a big part of soaking up the culture is just exploring the nature, sitting down by a shady olive tree, reading a good book, looking at the view with a glass of vino and chatting with your family or newfound friends. We're not saying you need to book a ticket to Italy just to, well, not do anything. There are fantastic sights to see, for sure! But dolce far niente is about finding joy in slowing down, appreciating the present moment and finding enjoyment in everyday things. Feeling like your life needs a sprinkle of dolce far niente? The good news is, you can cultivate that zen state right in your own backyard (or, you know, a park bench!).But if you're ready to go full-on dolce far niente surrounded by the masters themselves, we've got a few spots left on some amazing farm stays in Tuscany and Umbria surrounded by vineyards and olive groves for you to practice this fall.

In ancient Greece, folks with all sorts of ailments (from stubbed toes to the plague, yikes!) flocked to Epidaurus for a cure. 🇬🇷 The star of the show was the Sanctuary of Asclepius, a healing center named after a mortal (according to some accounts) who learned medicine and became so skilled he was seen as a miracle worker. Later on, his reputation grew, so much so that he was eventually worshiped as a god himself, the god of medicine. People traveled for miles to his sanctuary, hoping his legendary touch would heal them. The sanctuary’s most famous building, the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, hosted plays and musical performances as part of the worship. It was and still is legendary for its acoustics. You can even hear a whisper from the stage right up in the top rows. In the Sanctuary of Asclepius, it is thought sick people would sleep in a special building called an “abaton.” There, they would dream, and the priests would interpret their dreams to diagnose their illnesses and prescribe treatments! While not exactly modern medicine, it gives a fascinating glimpse into ancient healing practices. Greece has been one of our most popular UnTours in recent years, and accommodations are booking fast.
