Explore These Charming European Cities on a One-Day Trip
European cities are great places to explore different cultures, food, and history. But, how can we make the most out of our trip? In this article, we will give you some travel tips and delve into some of the cities worth visiting for the ultimate experience.
European Trips Recommendations
The key to making the most of your trip is to pick a region and travel throughout that area. Plan your visit by region — whether Western, Eastern, or Southern Europe. This way, you can explore several countries in one go. Furthermore, larger cities are the most flexible and provide easy access to the surrounding areas. Below, you can find a few of the most spectacular European cities that are definitely worth the day trip during your stay.
Munich to Salzburg, Austria
Known as the birthplace of Mozart, Salzburg is located just on the border with Germany. You can enjoy the Baroque architecture, which looks almost identical to how it did 400 years ago. The Munich-to-Salzburg route prices begin at $27, and it’ll only take you about two hours to arrive.
A nice place to stay is Hotel Schloss Leopoldskron, and the recommended restaurant is S’Kloane Brauhaus, which serves classic Austrian cuisine. While there, you can take a ”Sound of Music” tour or visit the birthplace of Mozart.
Berlin to Szczecin, Poland
Szczecin is located just on the Poland-Germany border, is known for its gorgeous riverfront, and holds one of the biggest boating events on the continent. The bus ticket from Berlin’s central bus station to central Szczecin costs about $17, and you’ll arrive in about two hours.
The Park Hotel is a comfortable place to stay, and you can grab food at its restaurant, which offers Polish and international dishes. The Szczecin Philharmonic hosts several events that you can enjoy at any time of the year.
Paris to Luxembourg City, Luxembourg
One of the smallest European capital cities, Luxembourg City, is known as the “Gibraltar of the North.” You can take the train from Paris for $34 and arrive in two hours. If you want to stay at a cozy place, we recommend the Hotel Parc Beaux Arts, located near the Palais Grand Ducal in Luxembourg’s historical city center.
If you want to try some traditional food, the Luxembourgian fare is the place to visit. You can enjoy the Bock Casemates tunnels, running beneath the ruins of the old city fortifications.
