A Short European Travel Itinerary

It’s true; after you leave the country once, you just can’t seem to stop. Since I’m missing Europe once again, I’m doing a short post on a fun travel itinerary to a few of the places I’ve been in the past. Hope you like it!

London, United Kingdom

 

To Do: see the Tower of London, take a river cruise, explore the nightlife and pub-life, go on the London Eye, go to Buckingham Palace, watch the changing of the guards, visit Harry Potter world, take a photo at Platform 9 3/4

To Stay: Raddison Blu Bloomsbury Street
It’s conveniently located in Covent Gardens, which is such a nice place to stay in London. There’s a lot of upscale shops in the area and it’s close to Piccadilly circus.

Dublin, Ireland

 

 

 

To Do: visit the Guinness brewery, take a day trip to the cliffs of Moher, see Blarney Castle
To Stay: Radisson Blu Royal Hotel
Located in Dublin’s City Centre, it’s close to the airport and has great views of the city. It’s also within close proximity to a few things to see, like Dublin Castle and Gaiety Theatre!

Paris, France

To Do: see the Eiffel Tower, take a river boat down the Seine, go to the Louvre, see the Mona Lisa
To Stay: Radisson Blue Hotel, Paris Boulogne
This cute hotel, with it’s own little vineyard, is located right in the western business district in Paris. It’s just minutes from the top attractions like the Eiffel Tower and close to a bus station!

 

Vienna, Austria

To Do: Try the traditional Viennese cake, attend a traditional concert, explore Schonbrunn Palace
To Stay: Radisson Blu Style Hotel
This hotel is located in the historical city center, right next to the fashion district and near to the imperial palace. It’s just a short walk to a lot of sights to see in Vienna!

Salzburg, Austria

To Do: visit Mozart’s birthplace, take a Sound of Music tour, go to a concert

To Stay: Radisson Blu Hotel Altstadt
Situated in a historic area, this hotel is just minutes from public transportation and the airport!

    So amazing! I did London and Paris last year, I’ve done Vienna previously, but both Dublin and Salzburg have been on my to-visit list for FOREVER. I so desperately want to go to Salzburg to do the Sound of Music tour!!!

    I never had a desire to visit France until this year, and now I can’t stop thinking about that (seemingly) beautiful place! I loved this post because it gave me a peek into what I wish I was doing right now instead of studying.

    I wanted to see the lock bridge SO bad when I was in Paris a few years ago but we didn’t get to stop. So many of these places are on my list, they all look so amazing!

    Ah the travel bug. Once it bites, it bites hard! Ever since I lived in London for a few weeks, I’ve been dying to go back and further explore.

    When I studied abroad I had the chance to travel in between quarters and I absolutely loved it! It’s so much easier (and cheaper) to travel when you’re already in Europe!

    I love this itinerary! I went to England last summer and to France and Poland this summer… so this post is giving me major nostalgia and wanderlust! It’s so true that once you leave the country, you just can’t stop!
