Paris
Ah, Paris. The name alone evokes feelings of glamour and sophistication. UK residents have the luxury of easy access to this stunning city of lights, and it makes an ideal escape, so long as you can overlook that whole British-French rivalry that’s been a centuries long tradition. Take a quick ride on the efficient Chunnel and you will be stepping out into the city of smelly cheese and flowing wine in no time.

Barcelona
Want to get away to the land of matadors and tapas instead? Barcelona has plenty to see and do, and the patatas braves are worth the trip alone. This city that never sleeps hosts some amazing nightlife, as well as plenty of chances for some sangria along the twisting avenues of the Gothic Quarter. Explore the city Picasso loved, and just hope your fate doesn’t go the way of the tragic artist.

Dusseldorf
Dusseldorf is one quaint city with a mouthful of a name. The German spot might not be as popular as its big brothers Berlin and Munich, but it still deserves a look. It is a quick trip on a train, sits on the Rhine, and has a host of unique spirits and alt beer, tonics that will have you smiling regardless of what’s going on around you.

Rome
We all know we should be visiting Rome, right? The ancient seat of Caesar is still hopping, despite the fall of the Roman Empire, and has plenty to offer to tourists. Taste the wine, eat the pasta, and throw some coins in some fountains, even if you are not sure why everyone is doing so. The eternal city is beautiful and splendid, and a natural holiday get away.
Vienna
Finally, Vienna has more going on that just the schnitzel. This beautiful city has a growing wine region and more intricate palaces and halls than you would have thought existed. It is like a wedding cake designer exploded on the whole city. Vienna is famous for its sweets and is a charming escape for those looking for something a bit more unique out of their European travel
