In Europe, you find some of the world’s most outstanding museums, historic sights, culinary creations, and architectural wonders. In this book, I guide you to the best of the best.You can sail past decaying palaces and sinking churches on Venice’s Grand Canal for the price of a bus ticket. You can drain creamy mugs of Guinness while clapping along to traditional Celtic music on a pub-crawl through Dublin. You can splurge on a 5-star meal in Paris, the mecca of haute cuisine. You may want to stare for hours at the famed finger-almost-touching scene of God Creating Adam on Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling in Rome. Or sit atop Switzerland’s Schilthorn Mountain, surrounded bypeaks covered with snow and glacier-filled valleys, while eating breakfast in a revolving restaurant in candle light at 10,000 feet. Or enjoy a picnic lunch on the Greek island of Santoríni hundreds of feet above the Mediterranean amidst the ruins of a Mycenaean city.
