Discover rich history as well as  great value This is Somerset --

Money, it is said, makes the world go round... and it can also make you go around the world – at a great price if you check out some great tours we have this week.

Each one comes in at under £600 and whisks you off to some of Europe's top spots.

For example, if famous fine wine and spectacular scenery is what you're seeking, then sign up for our escorted tour to the Moselle Valley by Eurostar. This Moselle Valley trip is something rather special. It visits places you may well have heard of and others you might be discovering for the first time.

We see medieval Aachen, birthplace of the Frankish Empire whose ruler, Charlemagne, tried to unite Europe.

Then there's Trier – Germany's oldest city. And then there is the Moselle Valley itself, a truly superb scenario, its gentle slopes covered in vines with imposing half-ruined castles seemingly crowning every summit, picturesque villages with half-timbered houses and picture-postcard, medieval towns nestling on every sweeping bend in the river.

From famous river to famous lake – and sea – on our trip which takes in Lake Garda, Venice, both pictured, and Verona. Enjoy the spectacular scenery of the Italian lakes and Venice, one of the most unique cities on earth, on our escorted tour to beautiful Lake Garda

Lake Garda combines stunning snow-capped Alps in the background and picturesque villages. Further north, the Dolomite mountains offer some of the most spectacular alpine scenery on earth.

Verona is without doubt one of the most attractive cities you will ever see and the setting for the legendary story of Romeo and Juliet.

Venice is, quite simply, a stunning city as you will see when visiting St Mark's Square and Basilica, the Doge's Palace and the Grand Canal.

Or how about a trip to Poland's architectural gem, Krakow, the city of Chopin, Copernicus and Pope John Paul II. The capital of Poland for 500 years, Krakow is without doubt one of the most beautiful cities you will ever see, ranking alongside Prague and Vienna as one of the real architectural gems of central Europe.

Another trip that comes in well under £600 is Classical Spain where you can experience vibrant Seville and the magnificent Alhambra Palace in Granada on our escorted tour to Andalucía, one of the most unspoilt corners of Europe.

Northern Ireland, Scotland or Wales?

If you fancy a spot of welcoming Celtic charm we have a range of tours which should appeal.

Head across the Irish Sea, using a flight from your local airport, to discover the glorious Antrim coast and the magical Giant's Causeway on an optional tour, and enjoy an included visit to the extraordinary new Titanic Belfast Experience – a tribute to Belfast's glorious industrial past and a commemoration of the ill-fated liner.

Or visit the heart of the Scottish Highlands – flying into Edinburgh from your local airport – to enjoy three spectacular train journeys. Ride the famous West Highland Line from Fort William to Mallaig, take a trip on the charming Strathspey Steam Railway and enjoy a breathtaking run from Inverness to the Kyle of Lochalsh.

Finally, closer to home, why not join our tour to North Wales which visits the amazing Italianate village of Portmeirion. You can also enjoy memorable railway journeys taking you 'coast to coast' through stunning mountain scenery. You'll also have the chance to enjoy a tour of Snowdonia and ride on the recently restored Welsh Highland Railway. Reported by This is 2 days ago.
