In Europe, many hotels will include a continental breakfast, while others will offer it at an extra cost. However, travel expert Rick

Steves believes it’s best to skip it.

To immerse yourself in the country, rise early and fill your stomach at a local café or bakery. The food will taste better and it will be less expensive than at a hotel.

Depending on where you are, the breakfast sizes and inclusions vary. For example, in Italy or France, breakfast consists of coffee and a pastry, while the UK has a full plate.
