Weekend Breaks to Europe Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

When you're short on time, city getaways are a great option for a weekend break to Europe. With our environmentally-friendly train itineraries you can chug across to France on the Eurostar for a sophisticated stay in Paris or roam a little further to some of our favourite Italian cities from art-filled Florence to the winding waterways of Venice and sunny streets of Rome.

Another great option is a city and nature combo. Spend your days hopping between excellent restaurants and beautiful beaches on visits to the coastal cities of Lisbon, Porto and San Sebastian - all a short plane journey away - or head to Marrakech for souq strolling in the city and a trip out to the Atlas mountains for dramatic scenery and remote villages.

Wherever you end up on your weekend break to Europe, we'll pair you up with excellent guides, book you tables at the best restaurants in town and arrange for you to stay in a luxurious hotel hideaway - the ingredients that all good holidays are made out of.
