Card Trip Europe

Card Trip Europe: create your ultimate European road trip

Card Trip Europe by Jolly Dutch Games is a clever and accessible strategic card game in which you design an unforgettable journey across Europe. From cycling events in France and hiking through the Dolomites to city walks in Prague and colourful festivals, every trip is unique. Smart planning is essential, as your energy is limited and every choice matters.

A strategic card game with smart planning decisions

In Card Trip Europe, each player builds their own personal trip using 16 cards. The key challenge is to alternate between different types of locations. Visiting the same type twice in a row is not allowed, so careful sequencing is required to make your journey as diverse and rewarding as possible.

Each day consumes energy, represented by stars. During a single week, you may use a maximum of 7 energy stars. Once your energy runs out, you must return to the campsite to rest and start a new week. This mechanic adds an extra layer of tactical depth to the game.

Fast-paced and interactive gameplay

All players act simultaneously, keeping the game dynamic and engaging. Every round, you select two cards from your hand and place them face down. Once revealed, the cards are added to your current week. The remaining cards are passed to the player on your left, so timing and anticipation play a crucial role.

Why Card Trip Europe stands out

• Easy to learn rules with meaningful strategic choices.
• High replay value thanks to variable card combinations.
• Minimal downtime due to simultaneous play.
• Suitable for families and experienced gamers alike.

Score points by building the perfect trip

After 8 rounds, the game ends and it is time to count points. Each location type has its own scoring method, ensuring that no two trips ever score the same way. The player who has planned the most efficient and memorable Card Trip wins the game.

Thanks to its compact format and clear iconography, Card Trip Europe works perfectly as a family board game, while still offering enough depth for players who enjoy optimisation and strategic planning.
