Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2018 | In this first of two episodes on Europe's greatest festivals, we'll cheer with the masses at Siena's crazy Palio horse race, toss a caber at a Scottish Highland Games, don a mask for Carnevale in Venice, and celebrate Easter in Greece. Dropping in on some of the Continent's top parties, we discover that each one is a celebration of traditional culture, and all of them are full of opportunities to sing and dance, feast on traditional food, and party with locals. #ricksteveseurope #ricksteves #europe Visit http://www.ricksteves.com for more information about these destinations and other destinations in Europe.
