Tipping practices also differ, with some countries including service charges in bills and others expecting a small tip.
A trip to Europe can range from a few days to several weeks, depending on how many countries you wish to visit. A week is ideal for exploring one or two cities, while 2-3 weeks will give you time to visit multiple countries.
