European Visa-free Countries – Europe is a continent located entirely in the Northern hemisphere and mostly in the Eastern hemisphere. It is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, Asia to the east, and the Mediterranean Sea to the south. It comprises the westernmost part of Eurasia.

European Visa-free Countries

Europe is most commonly considered to be separated from Asia by the watershed divides of the Ural and Caucasus Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian and Black Seas, and the waterways of the Turkish Straits.

Europe is an incredible destination with numerous highlights for travelers, and necessary amenities for Digital Nomads.

If you want to travel for holiday or for work in any of the European countries, stop contemplating on where to get your visa fees, just begin bag-packing.

Here’s a list of the top 13 European visa-free countries in Europe for travelers and digital nomads:

1. Georgia

This country is at the crossroads between Asia and Europe, but I’m adding it under “Europe” because it has a European feel and was part of our Europe trip. In terms of entry requirements, Georgia is at the top of the list of the best visa-free countries.

Australian, Canadian, American, and British passport holders can stay in Georgia visa-free for a year. That’s right, you have 365 days to immerse yourself in the charming city of Tbilisi, explore the numerous mountains, take a dip in one of the many pristine lakes, and dine on some tasty food and wine.

Many digital nomads choose to base themselves in Tbilisi for part of the year, leaving when the cooler winter weather arrives. Georgia entry requirements: Australian, Canadian, American, and UK citizens can stay visa-free for up to 365 days.
