  • Monday Night Travel with Rick Steves

Join Us for Monday Night Travel

Are you ready for a virtual adventure? Join us live every Monday for our Monday Night Travel party! Together we'll travel to destinations across Europe and beyond with a Rick Steves' Europe guide leading the way — and enjoy a Zoom happy hour with our merry band of travelers. Each week you'll learn about art, history, culture, food, and more, plus you'll have a chance to ask questions during a live Q&A. (Rick will occasionally host events when he's not traveling).

You do not need a Zoom account to participate but you must register below for each event. After registering, you'll receive a confirmation email from Zoom with a link to join the event. Registration doesn't guarantee admission. These events fill up quickly, so your best bet is to join us on time (or even a bit early). By registering for an event, you're agreeing to the Rick Steves' Europe Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

There will be no event on May 30 (for the Memorial Day holiday).

June 6: France’s Dordogne with Steve Smith

5:30 p.m. PT / 8:30 p.m. ET | REGISTER
7:00 p.m. PT / 10:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

France's Dordogne River Valley — with its dramatic castles, evocative cave paintings, and prized cuisine — is a lush blend of natural and human-made beauty, and Steve Smith is back to guide us through all its glory. Together, we take an idyllic canoe ride, wander through a lamp-lit castle, enjoy a country market, and visit the Sistine Chapel of the prehistoric world. Then we head south to Albi, home of Toulouse-Lautrec, and the imposing fortress city of Carcassonne. In true French fashion, we sip wine and snack on a crusty baguette as we go.

June 13: Italy’s Amalfi Coast with Ann Long

5:30 p.m. PT / 8:30 p.m. ET | REGISTER
7:00 p.m. PT / 10:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

Stunning scenery, hill- and harbor-hugging towns, and historic ruins make Amalfi Italy's coast with the most. With Sorrento-based tour guide Ann Long at the helm, we navigate the back streets and lemon groves of Sorrento, taste traditional Italian food with a playful flair, drive along the dramatic Amalfi Coast to visit its cliffside towns, and dodge scooters in Naples' vibrant neighborhoods. All the while, we savor sweet limoncello and enjoy an insalata caprese made with authentic Italian water-buffalo mozzarella.

June 20: Barcelona and Catalunya with Rich Earl

5:30 p.m. PT / 8:30 p.m. ET | REGISTER
7:00 p.m. PT / 10:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

Barcelona is Spain's second city and the capital of the proud and distinct region of Catalunya — the land of Picasso, Gaudí, and Salvador Dalí. Along with tour guide Rich Earl, we get caught up in the festivity of Barcelona, enjoying the whimsical architecture, tasty tapas, and pedestrian-friendly Gothic Quarter. Then we take a scenic side trip to the mountaintop abbey of Montserrat and finish along the Costa Brava in Dalí country. And no Spanish adventure is complete without a hearty Spanish tortilla and a glass of sparkling cava!

June 27: Amsterdam with Rick Steves

5:30 p.m. PT / 8:30 p.m. ET | REGISTER
7:00 p.m. PT / 10:00 p.m. ET | REGISTER

Let’s go to Amster, amster, dam, dam, dam! Rick took lots of notes on his guidebook research trip there this spring, and he's excited to share all his favorite angles on the city — from the canals to Rembrandt and from Van Gogh to biking into the polder. Plus, he has all the latest buzz on marijuana and those famous red lights. Pack your bags and get ready for a virtual trip to a city with rich history, an appetite for good living, and a zest for freedom.
