We've all had a long time to consider and refine our travel wish lists. 

 

With international travel returning from November, these are the European destinations at the very top of where the Australian UTracks team want to explore in 2022. Read our choices and see if you're feeling the same way.

 

>> Before we get started, we need to highlight that there is a huge demand for travel in Europe in 2022. Popular tours in peak months already sold out (like our guided Coast to Coast tour in August and all Veneto Bike & Barge dates!). It's similar to the current high demand for regional travel in Australia. To avoid disappointment, we sincerely encourage you to reserve your trip sooner rather than later. For peace of mind when booking, please refer to our Covid Information Hub and Worry-Free Booking Guarantee, or contact the team by calling 1300 303 368 or email [email protected].

Jaclyn, Sales Manager.

Jac was originally scheduled to walk Italy's St Francis Way as part of her long service leave and so she will doing that as soon as possible (although with the current appetite for Europe, she may be too busy to get away for the time being!). 

 

 

Besides Italy, Jaclyn also has her eyes on Istria in Croatia, Portugal's coastal Alentejo region, the Andros trail in Greece, the Cornish Coastal trail in the UK... [this is when I had to cut her off - Will the editor].

 

 

 

Ever since Allie trekked Mont Blanc in 2018 and shared her great advice, the big mountains of Europe have been calling her name! This time she is split between two alpine ranges: either Italy's rugged Dolomites or Bulgaria's Rila Mountains on the Balkan peninsula. It's also unsurprising that Allie is missing snow-capped peaks as she's a Canadian expat in Sydney.

 

 

 

Like so many others, Efti's 2020 travel plans were put on hold. She's since rescheduled her self guided bike tour in France's Alsace region for 2022, as well as a trip to Greece to visit her extended family (and the divine cuisine, no doubt!). 

 

 

 

Will's spent most of lockdown doing some serious armchair travelling: watching old Anthony Bourdain episodes and foreign films on SBS, reading Lonely Planet books, and cooking (or at least co-cooking) interesting foods, from burek to gnocchi to mussels. Will loves exploring places he doesn't know much about, so at the top of his travel to-do list is an active holiday in Cyprus.

 

 

 

Dana's initial response was..."put me down for anything!". Which is obviously the correct answer to the question. However, she managed to narrow her choices down to either the French Way of St James, the Via Francigena section in Switzerland, or the island of Sicily to visit Palermo. 

 

 

And like all good employees in the travel industry, she went on...

 

The Laugavegur Trail in Iceland wth her son...an active tour in Portugal...the Paris to Bruges bike and barge tour... (we can all relate, Dana!).
