How was Walks in Europe born?

Walks in Europe was born from a passion for travel and a desire to showcase the beauty, history, and culture of Europe to visitors from around the world. The idea behind the company was to provide immersive and educational walking tours, led by knowledgeable and passionate local guides, who could bring the cities of Europe to life for participants.

The company was founded by Arzu, a travel enthusiast and a professional guide in Turkey, who recognized the need for high-quality and personalized tour experiences. She believed that by focusing on walking tours, they could offer a unique perspective on the cities of Europe, allowing participants to see and experience the sights, sounds, and flavors of each destination in a more intimate way.

To bring this vision to life, the founding team worked tirelessly researching and planning the tours, handpicking the best local guides, and establishing relationships with local partners and suppliers. They also developed a comprehensive booking and customer service system to ensure a seamless experience for participants.

Since its inception, Walks in Europe has grown and evolved, expanding to new destinations and offering a wider range of tours. Still, the core values and mission of the company remain unchanged: to provide unforgettable travel experiences that deepen people’s appreciation and understanding of Europe’s rich history, culture, and beauty.
