European Springtime

When we think of spring holidays the American tradition on Spring Break does seem to come to mind. With thousands of university students flocking to the party capitals of the world. For us Spring is a relaxing time to get a bit of culture under your belt. Below are a few Spring-time escapes that won’t take you too far or break the bank. 

Zadar, Croatia - With flights from around £100 per person Zadar has become the new hotspot of Croatia. The old town is in a great spot and has had some great touches put in to make your Croatian experience even more special. The Greeting of the Sun is a spectacular light show with over 300 pieces of multilayered glass dedicating themselves to the sun. Definitely one to watch.

Copenhagen, Denmark - At such a steal of a price (£68 per person return flight) you’ll find this coastal destination to be neat, beautiful and eco-friendly. If the spring sun has decided to shine through then its advised to join the locals, hop on a bike and go through one of the many parks in the city. If you have an eye for design then this will definitely be an aesthetic spot to sooth your soul. 

Budapest, Hungary - With Spring comes the longer evenings in Budapest which gives you a chance to explore the city in lights. The breath-taking parliament buildings are a sight to behold and also a game of chess at Szechenyi Baths wouldn’t go a miss. This city of culture and health will leave anyone fulfilled and refreshed and at only £260 for 2 people return it won’t leave any lasting holes in your purse.
