subject: Europe: Never Run Out Of Things To Do While There [print this page] Practical tipsPractical tips. If anyone had the money to splurge, Europe would be a cinch. But frankly, it's an impossible dream to see all of Europe in a month's or a year's time unless you are a gazillionaire. Anyway, a European holiday always starts with the famous places - Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Venice and a host of other equally stunning places. There are lots more places to explore - Austria, Finland, Denmark, Greece and more.
Be ready with a roadmap to guide you for your European tour. A DIY tour is way much cheaper than a European coach tour. You can choose your lodging that suits your budget and if you have friends in the places you are going to visit, they might have the time to take you around.
Whatever place you choose to go, there are chic and budget holiday apartments for rent. You can book a holiday apartment online and get a good bargain. There are apartments sized enough for couples, families, or bigger groups.
For starters, if you choose to visit Italy, there is the usual touristy stuff to do. A travel guide shows you where to go and what to do. It is smart to follow the guide if this is your first visit. The off-beaten path could be your agenda in your next visit.
A tour of Italy takes off in Rome. The Vatican Palace, museums, centuries old cathedrals and cemeteries are among the important tourist destinations in Rome. Part of the Rome experience is sampling Italian cooking and shopping for quality leather accessories. These are the must-do things in Italy on a brief visit.
Summer is the best time to visit Spain. There are countless festivals that are always the top tourist drawers. In Valencia, don't miss out on the orange orchards and the vineyards. For adrenalin pumping fun, Barcelona is the top pick for the famous Bull Run and tomato fight.
