I believe one of the best ways to experience a European city is by reaching its highest vantage point for a panoramic view! Sometimes you see rolling skylines, sometimes grand axes or meticulously planned districts, all reflecting deep history.
However, when you climb to a city's most famous tower, you often lose a key focal point in your overlook. That’s why I’ve discovered many hidden overlook spots that won’t disrupt your perfect skyline photos or videos. Stay tuned and I'll update this guide through time!
BE AWARE: this is a themed map spanning multiple cities or regions, but it doesn’t provide point-to-point navigation for a single trip. So, unless you’re particularly interested in this topic, please consider purchasing with caution!
But if you still have bought it, thanks and please: save and always check on this map and visit any of the towers and castles when you are nearby. And I also add small notes for each place so you can quickly find what I like about this place.
Enjoy viewing!

Explore Tallinn in 24 hours
Tallinn is an easy day trip via ferry from Helsinki, Finland. The Tallink Group runs a ferry about every 2 hours throughout the day, and a roundtrip ticket will cost you roughly 50 Euros depending on which ferry time and if it is a same day ticket versus two seperate travel days. While Tallinn could easily be seen on a day trip, I believe it deserves, at the very least, an overnight exploration.
Tallinn is a dichotomy of time periods, and each is well represented by various neighborhoods, all of which are worth a visit. I visited in the winter and completely fell in love with the city. I stayed in Old Town at one of the nicest hotels in the country, and I was treated like royalty. The quality of service I received was excellent, and despite the 5 star hotel rating, the prices for accomodation and food were very affordable compared to what I would have paid in Western Europe or the USA for the same. The Christmas lights were still up around the city, and snow was lightly falling throughout my stay. It was uncrowded, quiet, cozy, a bit mysterious, and definitely romantic.
Old Town dates back to the 13th Century, and it is a well preserved representation of Medieval and Hanseatic Estonia. Besides historic structures, you'll find an endless supply of interesting, quirky, and charming cafes and restaurants tucked away in random cellars. Seriously, if you don't climb down a steep staircase into a cellar at some point, I doubt you explored the city to its full. If you can stay in Old Town, you should. The area is extremely walkable, and the other neighborhoods are easily accessible by a cheap Uber ride. I did not try out the public transit while I was there, but you'll have to walk to the edge of Old Town to catch a bus as they don't drive through the Medieval heart of the city.
The areas around Old Town tend to be a combination of pre-Soviet Estonia, especially just south and east of Old Town, Soviet Estonia, and Modern Estonia. Balti Jaama Turg ("Baltic Station Market") and Telliskivi Loomelinnak ("Telliskivi Creative City") are neighborhoods just northwest of Old Town, and are a great example of post-Soviet, modern (and slightly hipster) Estonia.
The list below is comprised of historic and tourist sites, a variety of cafes, restaurants, and bars, as well as a couple of parks, all in various neighborhoods of the city. Extensive research, local recommendations, and first hand experience helped me formulate my recommendations.
I hope you enjoy your visit to Tallinn as much as I did mine. Personally, I can't wait to visit again in the spring or summer when the city is really alive.

You best believe I spent weeeeeeks researching everything there was to do so I didn't miss a beat! Lucky for you, I ain't gate keeping any of it!
Please enjoy this authentic experience around the Greek Islands. Please note, you will NOT find Santorini or Mykonos on this map.
This map includes: Paros, Naxos, Anti Paros, Ios, Milos, Sifnos, Crete, Corfu, Zakynthos and Kelfonia, and of course, Athens as that is likely where you will fly in and out from.

I’ve designed this itinerary to offer a realistic and enjoyable experience of Kyoto. Many itineraries I’ve seen online are often overly packed, pushing you to rush through numerous sights and activities. This can lead to a vacation where you miss out on unique experiences because you were too focused on seeing everything.
I believe a vacation should be enjoyable and immersive, not a race to tick off as many sights as possible. This itinerary gives you ample time to explore at your own pace, allowing you to fully appreciate each destination and discover hidden gems along the way. It’s not just about seeing everything; it’s about creating meaningful memories.
To help you make the most of your time, I’ve included a free link to a resource with additional activity suggestions. Simply add these to your Google Maps to find more things to do, from local restaurants (include vegetarian and vegan options) to beautiful temples and shrines, based on where you are and what interests you. If you find yourself with extra time or looking for something new to explore, you’ll have convenient options right at your fingertips.
Enjoy your vacation, take your time, and embrace those unexpected moments that make travel truly special.

Tenerife truly stands out for its diverse panoramic views.
From any point on the island you can reach an elevation above the clouds in less than an hour.
Visiting its viewpoints is undoubtedly the best way to experience the island's charm.
That's why I've decided to focus the guide on highlighting the 7 essential viewpoints 🤩 that should be included in any visit.
You'll discover the island one viewpoint at a time.
No matter how much time you have or what your interests are, your mission should be to make it to these viewpoints at all costs.
Don't miss any of them.
After that, you can take some time to relax on the beach or by the hotel pool...😎
The guide also includes:
📣 Essential Information: tips, towns, must-visit spots, local cuisine, top activities and more.
🍽️ 5 authentic 'guachinches' (local restaurants)
🍸 5 bars with stunning views
🍦 The best ice cream spot
🍝 4 places for international food
🍳 8 brunch spots
📍 + 100 pinned places to explore from anywhere on the island
And if you still have time and energy, you can explore the list of 17 hidden gems 💎
These are lesser-known and unique places that are worth discovering.
Many locals believe that sharing these places will only lead to them getting spoiled and lost forever...
I'd like to think that this guide will be in good hands and that visitors will take care of the islands just as well or even better than we do🙏
Note: just click on any location within the guide or map and you'll instantly get directions on your phone's Google Maps app. Make sure to download the Thatch app for a seamless and convenient experience!

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.

The cradle of European civilization - Greece, embodies the ideal tourist destination in its capital, Athens.
One of the world’s oldest cities, it holds in so much history and hosts so many emblematic monuments for the ancient world that makes it so easy to believe that gods once really walked this land!
Amazing location (by the seaside), wonderful and warm people, great cuisine, lively nightlife, budget-friendly prices for everything - should I say more?

When it comes to cuisine, Belgium is famous for: cheese, mussels, rabbit stew, chocolate, waffles, fries, and boterhammen or tartines.
Btw - Brussels has more chocolate shops per square foot than any other city!!!

The smallest ethnographic region in southern Lithuania. The popular belief that Suvalkija is a flat land is false - Vilkaviškis district has some of the highest hills in Lithuania.
The region deserves more popularity because of variety of natural and architectural treasures and I invite you to the region where the official Lithuanian dialect was born.

From modern to traditional, from luxury to convenient…dining, shopping and sightseeing in this amazing city! You’ll find several options for great accommodation, as well.
Istanbul is where Europe meets Asia and here you'll encounter elements from both continents.
Mind yourself - this city is huge and really crowded. Traffic can be horrific at times and getting from one point to another could take up some time. Still, it's full of savory contrasts, echoes of the past and glimpses of the future and could easily get you addicted!
Highlights:
☕️ Turkish coffee - whether it’s made in sand, over fire or on stovetop, it is prepared in a “cezve” (ibrik) using very finely ground coffee beans without filtering;
🫖 Turkish tea - called “çay” (pronounced chai) in Turkish - is a kind of black tea brewed in a dual teapot and served in tulip-shaped small glasses called “ince belli”.
🥨 Simit (Turkish Bagel) a sesame-bathed, circular Turkish bread. Very common - the cheapest street food in Turkey.
🍥 Turkish delight - also called lokum, jellied confection with different flavours (may contain pieces of fruits/nuts) commonly found in the markets.
🥟 Baklava - is a layered pastry dessert made of filo pastry, filled with chopped nuts, and sweetened with syrup or honey. It was one of the most popular sweet pastries of Ottoman cuisine.
🏺 The Nargile, also known as hookah or hubble-bubble or sheesha or Turkish water pipe, is an old tradition in Turkey for smoking Turkish tobacco (plain or fruit flavored - with or without nicotine).
🧿 Evil Eye Symbol - the Nazar Boncuk symbolizes the jealous and envious look of others, which, according to the popular belief, would have the power to cause various misfortunes to a person or his property. Turkish people believe that this amulet protects its holder from the bad energies by absorbing them.
In addition, Turkey is famous for its sweets/desserts, ceramics, silver/gold jewelry, spices. Don’t forget to bargain - it is kind of a national sport. 😉

Festivals in India is a topic of great importance. After all, what is a culture without its beliefs? And beliefs come to life during festivities when people gather and celebrate what is common amongst themselves.
Interestingly, almost every big and small occasion in India calls for a celebration. It could be it the arrival of spring or birthdays of our beloved gods. You will never run out of reasons and seasons to celebrate in India.
Travelling during these festivals is an amazing way to celebrate and explore the opulence of Indian culture and heritage.
If you are a local Indian, you should plan a few trips around these. It will give a flare to your memories. If you are a foreign tourist, try and find out what is happening where during your visit. I am sure you will not forget the experience.
