Small Group Europe Tours

Looking to experience the best of Europe? Carpe Mundo is dedicated to providing the opportunity to explore the most incredible European destinations in a fun, exciting, small group setting. We design our tours to balance organized activities and time on your own, allowing you to personalize the tour and make the trip your own. Our itineraries are designed to show you some of the highlights of the destinations, as well as off the beaten path secrets that will make you happy you chose to “Seize the World” with Carpe Mundo!

We strive to create lifelong memories and redefine the way you think about organized tours. Our trips to exciting destinations such as Iceland, Croatia, Greece, and Switzerland are the perfect way to travel. We focus on taking time to enjoy and really get to know a destination, and with a variety of different tour types you can choose what’s best for you. From sailing between enchanting Greek islands to biking through charming Italian towns and vineyards or enjoying a less active Highlights tour to Iceland or Croatia, check out the different trip types we offer to discover the best fit for you. 

In addition to our scheduled tour departures, we also offer self drive tours and private/custom tours. Our self drive tours enable you to take advantage of our knowledge and expertise while having the independence to travel when, where, and how you want. We also offer private and custom tour departures- whether you want a family getaway, a trip with friends, or just a private guide, we will work with you to plan all of the logistics to make your vacation as enjoyable and stress free as possible.

Not Your Typical Small Group Tour

We want to change the way you think about organized tours. As a small company, you are not just another customer but rather one of our fellow travelers with whom we want to explore the world and live life to the fullest! This “boutique travel” feel is one of the reasons why over 50% of our travelers are repeat guests or referrals. Exploring the world with a small group of like-minded travelers is one of the highlights of our tours! 

Our average group size is 6 to 8 people, and our scheduled tours have a maximum of only 8 or 12 travelers. This allows us to adapt the tour based on your preferences. We create a balance of planned activities and free time (with activity suggestions!) so you can customize the trip according to your personal travel style.
