Visit Europe 'The official gateway to Europe.'

From Spain to Finland, Iceland to Turkey, and everywhere in between. Travel info and further links for the 33 countries in the European Travel Commission. (click here for interactive map)

the site is aimed at US citizens visiting Europe, with sections on planning your trip, getting around, special interests and events etc.		 There isn't much information on each country, but it's enough to get you started, and clicking for further information will redirect you to the relevant country's official homepage.

If you're looking for ideas, there are some interesting articles in the 'Special Interests' section, and if you're a Euro-obsessive, you can sign up for their newsletter.
