Whether you’re one of the estimated 500,000 vegans living in Australia* or embracing the new decade with new experiences, social travel expert Contiki has unveiled a new vegan-friendly tour of Europe this year, in response to growing demand from travellers seeking animal-free alternatives.

The Vegan Food Europe Explorer is a one-off trip and will be guided by two experts on all things plant-based, London based @thelittlelondonvegan and Dusseldorf based @laurafruitfairy. The eight-day trip will take travellers on a vegan food odyssey around some of Europe’s coolest cities, also renowned for having meat-centric local cuisines.

Starting in Berlin on the 16th of August and ending in Budapest on the 23rd of August, 2020 is the year like-minded travellers can discover authentic vegan cuisine.

Top foodie experiences include:

  • A vegan cooking class in Budapest run by @laurafruitfairy
  • A private, plant-based EatWith dining experience with locals in Berlin
  • A dreamy dinner cruise along the Danube river
  • The chance to sample a wide range of vegan delicacies on an interactive food tour in Berlin

Immersive cultural experiences such as a locally guided bike tour of opulent Prague and a classical music concert in melodic Vienna, the home of Beethoven, are also included. Wellness excursions also feature on the itinerary including a morning yoga class in Prague and a soak in the famous Széchenyi traditional thermal baths in Budapest.

The accommodation has been specially selected to showcase the coolest stays around, including the Moxy in Berlin and A&O in Budapest, with bespoke vegan breakfasts served exclusively for Contiki guests.

The Vegan Food Europe Explorer is currently on offer as part of Contiki’s up to 20 per cent off global sale, with prices starting from $2,264** (standard price starting from $2,829).
