Planning a trip to Europe? Choose your country and start exploring…rays of adventure await…
Whether you’re looking for stunning scenery or a city break full of fascinating history, Europe has something for everyone. Train and flight connections between different countries are great, so you can easily hop between different cities and sights in one trip.
Europe in the summer is lovely – a perfect time for hiking in the Alps, or a road trip around Iceland. But many of the cities really come alive at Christmas – Prague, Vienna and Berlin are all magical at Christmas, where you can combine taking in the history with browsing Christmas markets.
Europe is a great start for solo female travelers as well – although some of Europe may not be the most budget-friendly, especially countries in West or North Europe, there are always ways to cut travel costs and travel on a budget.
Travelling in Europe with a chronic illness is simple as well. Lots of transport options mean you never need to walk too far, and high quality food and accommodation options make travelling super simple so you can just focus on enjoying the sights.
