La Cortinada village is another of my favorite places to visit in Andorra for a quiet and rustic vacation and enjoying the true Andorran way of life.

Soldeu is a busy and family-oriented skiing town during the winter months (Dec-April) and one of the most popular places to visit in Andorra for a cheap skiing vacation.

During the warm months, the steep hills surrounding Soldeu make it an ideal place to enjoy some serious hiking and biking up and down the slopes.

Encamp and Pas de la Casa is one of the most popular destinations for winter sports in Andorra and the Pyrenees, hands down!

Pas de la Casa is part of Encamp, though it’s actually located 40 minutes drive east of Encamp’s town center.

Must see places in Eastern Europe

Seeing so many good articles on top destinations in Western Europe, I thought to create a list of some of the top Eastern European cities to visit, and tell you why I think they’re great destinations. In no particular order, five of the top Eastern European cities to visit on your next vacation include:

Constanta, Romania

If you’re planning a cheap beach vacation like no other, look no further than Constanta Romania.

Located along the western coast of the Black Sea, Constanta Romania offers lively resorts, beautiful sandy beaches and centuries old remains and ruins from past cultures. Another reason why Constanta Romania is one of the top Eastern European cities to visit, it’s because of its affordability and accessibility. The airport is just minutes from the heart of the city center, and with hundreds of charter flights available, airfare bargains are easy to come by.


Budapest, Hungary

Most people that travel to Budapest Hungary for the first time don’t know what to expect of the city. Perhaps, one of the most striking things about the capital city of Budapest Hungary it’s the city’s architecture, with its many bridges and statutes, as well as amazing cultural scene. The music scene is diverse and they’re plenty of music events happening all year-round to keep you busy. Budapest Hungary is also one of the most popular cheap summer destinations in Europe, when you consider the small price you’ll pay for foods, eating out and entertainment.

Varna, Bulgaria

Varna Bulgaria is another popular summer destination in the Black Sea, located on the same stretch of coast as Constanta Romania. If you’re looking to do day trips, the city of Varna offers daily ferry connections to cities along the Black Sea coast, including Istanbul Turkey. The thing that makes Varna Bulgaria one of the top Eastern European cities to visit it’s its lovely attractions and the many things to do that can be enjoyed by all. For instance, you’d love a visit to the popular Sea Garden Park which boasts a dolphin theater, planetarium and more.

Kusadasi, Turkey

Kusadasi Turkey is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Turkey, in par, with places such as Ibiza in Spain and Ayia Napa in Cyprus, but with its distinctive Turkish vibe. If you’re looking for a lively beach vacation and vibrant nightlife, without breaking the bank, Kusadasi Turkey has some of the best beaches in the Mediterranean to head. Apart from exciting beach and nightlife, Kusadasi Turkey is one of the top Eastern European cities to visit because of the famed Ephesus ruins.


Brno, Czech Republic

Located southeast of Prague, Brno Czech Republic is one of the few places in the country where you can still get a taste of the real Czech Republic. If you’ve always wanted to visit a medieval city, the city of Brno Czech Republic is one of the best places to visit Europe where you can do this. From beautiful architecture like churches, castles, medieval streets and UNESCO sites, there is really a lot to do in the city. Another plus about traveling to Brno Czech Republic, it’s that the city is just 70 miles north of Vienna Austria.

Top 10 Tourist Attractions in Europe

Whether you're planning a short or week-long vacation in Europe, if you're looking for suggestions on where to enjoy your next European vacation adventure, I've got just that!

I have compiled a list of some of the best vacation spots in Europe, including top eastern European destinations. The list of top ten vacation spots in Europe is arranged in no particular order. Enjoy!

Top Ten Vacation Spots in Europe

Great Yarmouth, England

Great Yarmouth UK is one of favorite holiday destinations in England for spending the summer and, in my opinion, Great Yarmouth UK is one of the best summer retreats for both families and solo travelers.

Best Beach Bars in Europe

If you've never been to a sea-side resort in England, you’d love the amount of attractions and activities this charming town has to offer.


Apart from the beach, one of the most pleasant things to do here it’s taking a boat tour along the waterways of Norfolk Broads.

Island of Cyprus

The island of Cyprus is in, my opinion, one of the most charming destinations in the Mediterranean basin but somewhat overlooked by many travelers.

Best Mediterranean Islands to Visit on Vacation

Top 5 European Beaches

The festivals in Cyprus are a joy to enjoy and shopping for traditional hand-made Cypriot goods is one of the most fun things to do in Cyprus.

Another thing that appeals to me about the island is its geographical location. It is located south of Turkey, north of Egypt and east of Syria, which makes Cyprus a great place to base yourself if you intend to also explore places such as Cairo Egypt.

Kusadasi, Turkey

Turkey is certainly not ‘under the radar’ of most travelers anymore as it is fast becoming one of the most popular summer destinations in Europe because of its affordability.

Top Places to See on a Mediterranean Cruise

The town of Kusadasi Turkey deserves to be on the list of top ten vacation spots in Europe because of its Roman ancient ruins such as the Temple of Apollo and Ephesus (see. things to do on the Aegean coast of Turkey).

Dumfries, Scotland

The county of Scotland is another destination widely overlooked by most travelers, which is a pity as the county has a wealth of historical landmarks and educational attractions.

Things to do in Northern Europe

cheap summer destinations in Europe

The appeal of Dumfries Scotland has to be the old ancient landmarks, some of them, dating back to the 13th century.

My two favorite landmarks include Sweetheart Abbey ruins and Kagyu Samyé Ling Monastery. The latter is a Buddhist monastery temple which I think gives so much character to the area.

Uppsala, Sweden

Uppsala Sweden is one of the most beautiful cities in Northern Europe and also one of the trendiest town with its charming student feel.

Tourist Attractions in Scandinavia

Summers are one of the best times to visit the town because of the many summer festivals such as the Uppsala Reggae Festival in August.


The town of Uppsala also has a more relaxed atmosphere when compared to a vacation in Stockholm Sweden, so if you're looking to get away from large crowds and you’ll enjoy a trip here.

Lagos, Portugal

If you are planning a trip to Portugal, Lagos is one of the best places in the Algarve to enjoy a beach vacation. Lagos Portugal is a pleasant destination, and not as crowded in the summers as other major tourist hubs in Portugal such as Albufeira, Lisbon and Porto.

Things to do in the North of Portugal

Beautiful places in Europe

Lagos Portugal is definitely on my top ten of vacation spots in Europe, and it is one of my favorite beach vacations in Europe due to its lovely beach with stunning rock outcroppings .

Antwerp, Belgium

If you are a romantic-type traveler, you’ll enjoy a trip to Antwerp Belgium without a doubt. This charming Belgium city is home to the famous Het Steen Fortress and the beautiful River Scheldt where you can enjoy a romantic dinner cruise.

Best European Theme Parks

The nightlife is especially lively, and during the summer months, restaurants and bars play live music outdoors.

There is also plenty of shopping opportunities and many bargains to be had at the weekend's flea-markets.

Amalfi Coast, Italy

The Amalfi Coast is one of the most picturesque stretches on the eastern side of the Italian coast.

Amalfi Coast actually stretches all the way from Positano to Vietri sul Mare. The latter is just miles from the city of Salerno.

Things tourists miss doing while in Italy

Most Scenic Train Rides in Europe

Whether you base yourself in the city of Salerno or at one of the villages along the coast, one of the most enjoyable things to do here it’s to rent a car and take a scenic drive along Amalfi Coast to check out the Cathedral of Amalfi, the Old Arsenal, and Santa Maria Olearia Monastery.

Another great thing about a vacation in the Amalfi Coast is the many ferry connections to other wonderful spots in Southern Italy such as Rome, Sassari Sardinia and Palermo Sicily.

French Riviera

The French Rivera is no doubt, one of the most popular vacation spots in Europe, and it's easily to see why the French Rivera draws so many people here every year. (see places to visit in the French Rivera).

Best Party Beaches in Europe

The French Rivera or Côte d'Azur in French, is one stunning stretch of coast with some of the most gorgeous sandy beaches and crystal clear blue waters anywhere in the world!

Odense, Denmark

If you are looking for a nice vacation spot where your family and yourself can enjoy fun recreational activities and attractions, you won’t find a more ‘spot-on’ destination than Odense Denmark.

Best unknown European cities

The city has a great bicycle system with paved cycling trails that makes cycling tours such a wonderful experience. There are also many green spaces where you can all enjoy a lovely picnic along the way.

The city also boasts many museums and many fun things to do such as visiting the Odense Zoo and taking a scenic trip on the train.
