Tagline: For over two thousand years, Europe has survived many great disasters. Now for the real test. Chevy Chase & his family are coming from America!

Trivia: Eric Idle and Chevy Chase became mutual friends after filming wrapped up. Shortly after the release of European Vacation, Idle and Chase began work on a screenplay for a follow-up called “National Lampoon’s Australian Vacation.” Aside from a few shark-related gags, neither could come up with much and the project was shelved.
 

Goofs: Errors in geography: In the opening sequence, we see that the Griswalds live at 8805 Skyline Drive, Chicago IL. There is no Skyline Drive in Chicago, IL. There is a Skyline Drive in Justice, IL (a very small southern suburb), but it does not run nearly long enough to have an 8800 block.
 

“The Griswalds win a vacation to Europe on a game show, and thus pack their bags for the continent. They do their best to catch the flavor of Europe, but they just don’t know how to be be good tourists. Besides, they have trouble taking holidays in countries where they CAN speak the language… Written by Murray Chapman <muzzle@cs.uq.oz.au>”
