Nestled in the South West of France, the city of Bordeaux, has been named one of Europe's best destinations - and it's easy to see why!
Bordeaux truly showcases the best that France has to offer: world renowned food and wine heritage, a growing art and design scene, a stunning historical centre and just a short trip to the beautiful vineyards and countryside. The city centre is registered as the largest urban UNESCO world heritage site in the world.
I have been lucky enough to call Bordeaux my home - on and off - for the last 10 years. Below are 7 things I love to do in my city that will guarantee you make the most of your time here. I walk you through the areas that you won't want to miss and share my favourite spots in the wine capital of France.

Nestled in the heart of France, Lyon is known as the country's culinary capital. This city brims with life and a wealth of attractions waiting to be explored. While it ranks among France's most significant urban centers, two days are often sufficient to take in its many offerings.
Lyon's unique charm stems from being traversed by two winding rivers, which bestow upon it a distinct allure. Multiple bridges gracefully connect the city's three main districts: the historic Old Town (Vieux Lyon), the peninsula known as Presqu'île, and the riverbanks on the right bank of the Rhône.
For a short stay, it's advisable to choose accommodations as centrally located as possible, ensuring easy access to the city's primary points of interest. While Lyon is mostly walkable, do keep in mind that it encompasses several hilly areas, particularly the Fourvière Hill. For those less inclined to undertake the uphill journey on foot, there's a cable car service available to ascend the heights.
Should you wish to extend your journey, Lyon harmoniously pairs with other destinations such as Paris, Dijon (and the Burgundy region), Geneva, and Annecy. Dive into this vibrant city where culinary expertise meets rich heritage, this city is a captivating blend of historical landmarks, vibrant neighborhoods, and a thriving cultural scene.
Please note that I'm offering this guide for free, so any tip is appreciated. Another way to support my work is by booking your accommodation via this guide, there's no extra cost for you and helps me a lot to continue creating guides like this. If you are interested in making a trip combining some other interesting cities in France, give me a call I can certainly help you plan it.

Monaco, a jewel perched on the glittering Mediterranean, pulsates with an energy unlike any other. This sovereign city-state, wedged between France and Italy, packs a punch far exceeding its diminutive size.

Within its historic walls, grand palaces adorned with frescoes stand sentinel next to bustling harborfronts, and the scent of freshly baked focaccia mingles with the salty tang of the sea breeze. Genova isn't just a playground for the wealthy, but a city steeped in a rich history that unfolds on every cobblestone street, welcoming every curious explorer with open arms.

When thinking about skiing retreats in Europe – Italy, France or Switzerland will come to mind first above every other place, for budget skiers it would be Poland, Chezhia, or Slovakia but… Levi in Finland is the next level of experiencing winter and adventuring in real winter.
This brilliant idea it’s not the cheapest one, but worth every cent, it’s a place in the Arctic Circle, what a better place You can imagine to ski, enjoy nature and views that really look like winter all around You? It’s Levi Ski Resort located in Lapland. You can find any kind of winter activities there for adventure seekers: husky or reindeer safaris and sledding, alpine skiing and snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, E-biking through snowy trails in the forest around Levi mountain, riding a snowmobile, ice-karting, and of course hunting northern lights.
You’ll need to start this adventure in Kittilä or Rovaniemi and take the shuttle bus from the airport to Sirkka. We stayed at Levi Suites Levin Klubi and the experience was brilliant, the location was very good because it was away from the Levi hotspot (ZERO POINT), but You can get around with a bus or hop on Your skis and get up to the slopes exactly from there.

If you're looking for a city escape to live your European Summer dream, you've come to the right place! This is my 100% honest opinion of my 10 favorite European cities to visit in Summer.
I see lots and lots of guides out there suggesting Paris (hello, has someone heard of the Olympic Games taking place?), Madrid (if you love 45° weather I guess) or Lisbon (great choice if you want to be 1 or 100 000 tourists). While these are all great destinations year-round, I don't think Summer is the right season to visit them. Personally, I'd go there in Spring or Autumn, not during the high season.
Full disclosure, this is a no Greece, no Italy guide. You'll only find cities that I love, and I think are worth going to discover if you're looking for a short city-escape this Summer.

Basel, Switzerland's third-largest city, is beautifully situated at the tri-border area with Germany and France, offering a perfect blend of history, art, and modern architecture. A stroll through the old town takes you past medieval buildings, the impressive Basel Minster, and charming squares like the Marktplatz, home to the colorful Town Hall.
The city is a paradise for art lovers—the renowned Kunstmuseum Basel and the Fondation Beyeler house world-class collections. The Rhine adds a special charm to Basel; a boat ride or a swim in the river during the summer is an absolute highlight.
The map includes all notable places in Basel and the region (photo spots, to-dos, museums, hotels, restaurants, etc.)

Your free & paid guides for Denmark, all in one place.
A little bit more about myself:
I'm French and spent most of my life between France and the UK. I have always loved travelling and started visiting European capital cities during Uni. In 2019 I did a bus trip to Central and Northern Europe only taking night buses for a week (Lyon - Prague - Copenhagen - Berlin - Munich - Lyon) and fell in love with Copenhagen. I came back to Copenhagen 3 years later in 2022 to get married with my now husband so Copenhagen holds a very special place in our hearts.
Through these guides, I want to encourage you to explore Denmark's hidden gems & most beautiful locations.
TIP: If you wish to get a sense of where these locations are relative to Copenhagen, make sure to use the map feature!
I hope these guides will be useful and inspire you to explore more of the country.
