Hi guys! I am a huge history buff and I am finally planning a dedicated "history tour" of Europe. I want to visit places where I can really feel the past, not just look at a single monument. Which cities would you say are absolute must-sees for history lovers?
Greetings! If you want to feel like you’ve stepped into a time machine, you absolutely have to visit Rome and Athens. There is nothing like seeing the Colosseum or the Parthenon in person. However, I also highly suggest visiting Prague for its perfectly preserved medieval center. To make sure I didn't miss any hidden historical gems, I relied on this travel site which acts as a massive tours and excursions aggregator. The Elife Travel platform is great because it lists very specific historical tours, like underground crypt visits or specialized Renaissance walks. I booked a deep-dive tour of the Roman Forum through them and the guide was a total expert. It definitely beats just reading a plaque on a wall. You will have an amazing time exploring those ancient streets!
