Countries of Europe travel guide | TravelGuideEurope.eu

Last Updated on 14 January 2026 by Johan

Europe is home to 46 countries, from tiny Vatican City to Russia, the largest country in the world by area. All Countries of Europe have their own culture, languages or dialects, traditions and landscapes, making Europe one of the most diverse travel regions in the world.

On this countries of Europe portal of Travelguideeurope.eu you can explore all countries of Europe in one place. For each country you will find practical travel information, inspiration for city trips and nature escapes, suggestions for itineraries, and tips on local culture, food and events. This makes it easier to compare destinations and plan a complete trip through several European countries.

Although many countries are united in common political and economic structures, travelling through Europe quickly shows how different they are in everyday life. Architecture, public transport, national dishes and even coffee culture can change completely as soon as you cross a border. Discovering these differences and also the shared European history is one of the main reasons to travel across the continent.

On this countries page you can click through to a dedicated portal for each destination, List of all European Countries (Alphabetical Order)

Each country portal on Travelguideeurope is designed to answer key questions for travellers. You can learn the best time to visit, how to get around by train, bus or car, typical prices and travel budget, safety considerations, important public holidays and festivals, and the must see cities and regions. You will also find ideas for lesser known places, so you can travel beyond the usual highlights and experience Europe more like the locals do.

Many visitors search for inspiration by theme rather than by city. That is why the country guides also include ideas for beach holidays, winter sports, hiking and national parks, road trips, cultural city breaks and family friendly destinations. From the fjords of Norway and the islands of Greece to the wine regions of France and the historic towns of Central and Eastern Europe, the portal helps you match each country to your travel style.

Travelguideeurope focuses on independent travel and on showing Europe the way Europeans themselves travel. The countries portal connects you to related sections such as cities and towns, European discoveries and know before you go, so you can move easily from country overviews to more detailed local guides.

Travel to Belarus and Russia is currently not endorsed or promoted on this website. Instead, the focus lies on the rest of Europe, where stable connections, rich cultural heritage and a wide range of landscapes offer endless options for both first time visitors and experienced travellers.

Use this countries overview as your starting point to plan your next European journey. Choose a country that interests you, open its portal page, and then combine several countries into one itinerary. Whether you want a classic grand tour of Europe, a short city break or a slow travel adventure by train, the Travelguideeurope countries portal is your gateway to exploring Europe country by country.
