There is no vaccination requirement for entry into Europe. We do not think there will be any issue that would threaten your health with meals taken at good restaurants and hotels in the region. However, when you are not with the group, we recommend that you be careful about what you eat and drink, definitely consume bottled water, avoid ice, milk and dairy products, eat meat and fish products that you are sure are well cooked, and for fruit, eat fruits that can be peeled such as bananas and pineapples.
