The 15 destinations in detail
City1 🇬🇷 Rhodes
🌡️ 29 °C in the afternoon, 1 day of rain, sea at 24 °C · 💶 €70-120 a day
Rhodes is the city of the Knights of St John, with 4 km of ramparts, an intact street of inns and a Palace of the Grand Master rebuilt by the Italians, all listed by Unesco. 50 km to the south, the acropolis of Lindos towers over a white village, and between the two lie 1930s spa buildings, pebbly bays and sandy beaches.
Region2 🇪🇸 Andalusia
🌡️ 32 °C in the afternoon, 2 days of rain, sea at 21 °C · 💶 €70-120 a day
Andalusia is best experienced behind the wheel, from the Mezquita of Córdoba to the cliffs of Ronda, from the flower-filled patios of Granada to the wild coves of Cabo de Gata. Between white villages clinging to the Sierra, you stop for a gazpacho, a vertiginous walkway on the Caminito del Rey or a night of flamenco in Jerez. A road trip that feels a world away, yet only a short flight from much of Europe.
City3 🇲🇹 Valletta
🌡️ 27 °C in the afternoon, 1 day of rain, sea at 23 °C · 💶 €80-140 a day
Built by the Knights of St John after the siege of 1565, Valletta sits on a peninsula measuring 900 metres by 600, laid out in a grid above the Grand Harbour. A little over five thousand inhabitants, bastions of golden limestone and stepped streets that plunge towards the water.
City4 🇬🇷 Santorini
🌡️ 27 °C in the afternoon, 1 day of rain, sea at 23 °C · 💶 €120-220 a day
Santorini means white houses clinging to the caldera, the sunset over Oia that everyone waits for, and black volcanic sand beaches. Spectacular, especially out of season.
Region5 🇮🇹 Sicily
🌡️ 28 °C in the afternoon, 2 days of rain, sea at 22 °C · 💶 €70-120 a day
Sicily means Etna smoking in the distance, the Greek temples of Agrigento, the noisy markets of Palermo and beaches that are still wild. A generous island, at the table as everywhere else.
Region6 🇵🇹 The Algarve
🌡️ 27 °C in the afternoon, 2 days of rain, sea at 18 °C · 💶 €70-120 a day
The Algarve means ochre cliffs dropping onto hidden coves, Benagil cave reached by kayak, and whitewashed fishing villages. Portugal's most spectacular coastline.
Region7 🇮🇹 Sardinia
🌡️ 27 °C in the afternoon, 3 days of rain, sea at 22 °C · 💶 €90-150 a day
Sardinia means the translucent water of the Gulf of Orosei, coves you can only reach on foot, and a hinterland of shepherds and stone. Beaches worthy of the tropics, in the middle of the Mediterranean.
City8 🇪🇸 Madrid
🌡️ 30 °C in the afternoon, 5 days of rain · 💶 €80-130 a day
Madrid reveals itself in the evening: the Prado's paintings by day, then tapas from bar to bar in La Latina, and terraces that never empty. A capital that lives late and welcomes everyone.
City9 🇭🇷 Hvar
🌡️ 27 °C in the afternoon, 4 days of rain, sea at 24 °C · 💶 €80-150 a day
A 68 km-long island off Split, Hvar lines up lavender fields, terraced vineyards and a bay guarded by a Venetian fortress. Its capital of 4,000 people sits between a yacht harbour and stone lanes, facing the Pakleni Islands.
City10 🇲🇹 Gozo
🌡️ 22 °C in the afternoon, 1 day of rain, sea at 23 °C · 💶 €70-120 a day
The second island of the Maltese archipelago, Gozo covers 67 km² with around 40,000 inhabitants, a citadel planted at its centre and cliffs that drop 130 metres in the south. Its Ġgantija temples date from 3600 BC, a millennium before the pyramids of Egypt.
City11 🇵🇹 Lisbon
🌡️ 25 °C in the afternoon, 4 days of rain, sea at 19 °C · 💶 €60-100 a day
Lisbon means tram 28 climbing through Alfama, miradouros at sunset, and a still-warm pastel de nata in Belém. Bright, hilly and surprisingly kind to your wallet.
City12 🇭🇷 Split
🌡️ 28 °C in the afternoon, 6 days of rain, sea at 23 °C · 💶 €80-140 a day
Split grew up inside a palace: the one Diocletian had built for himself around 300, whose 30,000 m2 now house 3,000 residents, bars and a cathedral set in his mausoleum. In front lie the Riva and the Adriatic. Behind, the wooded hill of Marjan and the ferries to Brač and Hvar.
Countries13 🇦🇱 Albania
🌡️ 28 °C in the afternoon, 7 days of rain, sea at 25 °C · 💶 €40-70 a day
Albania means the turquoise water of Ksamil on the Riviera, the stone lanes of Gjirokastër, and the wild peaks around Theth. The rising star of the Balkans, still unspoilt and affordable.
City14 🇩🇪 Berlin
🌡️ 25 °C in the afternoon, 9 days of rain · 💶 €70-120 a day
Berlin means the East Side Gallery on the remains of the Wall, Museum Island, and nights that never end in Kreuzberg. A capital marked by history and constantly reinventing itself.
City15 🇭🇺 Budapest
🌡️ 26 °C in the afternoon, 10 days of rain · 💶 €55-95 a day
The Danube splits the city into two worlds: regal Buda, with its castle and Fisherman's Bastion, facing party-loving Pest, with its Belle Époque cafes and the ruin bars of the Jewish quarter. In between, you lounge in the Széchenyi Baths, admire the illuminated Parliament from a boat and dine on goulash for a handful of forints. Budapest is Vienna, only more affordable and more alive.
