Rick Steves' Europe Samples
Parties and Processions in Andalucia
In Spain's Andalucia region, revelry and religiosity go hand in hand: The same passion and energy dedicated to partying is put into long, solemn, religious processions that clog the city's narrow streets.
Taming London in a Week
With 600 square miles, 8 million people, and too many must-see sights to see, London can be formidable. First I dashed to the Natural History Museum. Next I popped into the always-thrilling Victoria and Albert Museum.
Praying and Partying in the Streets of Istanbul
This year, August marks the holy month of Ramadan, when many Muslim people fast during daylight hours. Istanbul is more than 90 percent Muslim.
Stockholm's Island Getaways
For years I've flown over Stockholm's famed archipelago, or glided by it on a big cruise ship heading for Helsinki. The local name for this area is "Skargarden" -- literally "garden of skerries," unforested rocks sticking up from the sea.
Rambling Through the Ruins of Europe's Castles
Travelers have long ago discovered most of Europe's castles. But beyond the touristy castles are the ones I prefer -- the forgotten ones. Castle ruins invite you to ramble the ramparts and let your imagination roam. In France's Dordogne region, I like to hike to Chateau de Commarque near Sarlat.
Navigating Europe in the Digital Age
Several years ago, I was invited to Amazon.com headquarters. It was turned on. While I consider myself a paper guy, I can see the advantages to ebooks. Of course, ebooks have their problems. Ebooks are just one of the latest technologies changing the way we travel. An audio tour you can run on your iWhatever is the one technology I'm excited about. Some places are going beyond audio.
