🏰 2. Wernigerode, Germany: A Fairytale at the Foot of the Harz Mountains
This half-timbered town looks like it leapt from the pages of a Brothers Grimm tale. Wander its cobblestone streets to the grand hilltop Wernigerode Castle, once the summer residence of German royalty.
Quirky fact: Wernigerode has Germany’s smallest house, and it’s only 2.95 meters wide!

🚲 3. Maastricht, Netherlands: Layers of History Beneath Your Feet

Did you know? Beneath the city lie 20,000+ caves carved out over centuries, a perfect place for an audio-guided adventure.

🏞 4. Mont Saint-Michel, France: Where the Sea Meets the Sky
Few places are as iconic and as mystifying, as Mont Saint-Michel. Perched atop a tidal island, this medieval abbey has inspired pilgrims and painters for over a thousand years.
At low tide, you can walk across the sand to reach it. At high tide, it becomes an island fortress.
👉 Our Voxtour audio guide leads you through its narrow alleys, abbey secrets, and sweeping bay views with no crowds or rush.

🌊 5. San Sebastián, Spain: A Culinary and Coastal Paradise
