My husband and me had decided we needed to go to Ireland, how could we not? Ireland has it all! Beautiful architecture, strong culture, history, museums, libraries, amazing natural landscapes showcased in many of our favorite movies and TV shows. Then, as though sent from heaven Explore Europe offers a Saint Patty’s 4 Day trip to Ireland by air, leaving from Frankfurt Airport.
Through the eye of the average tourist, one may think that Venice only thrives off of gondola rides & Venetian masks. Although the costumes and rides are magical in their own right, you should take the alleys and bridges less taken as well. If you take a chance on getting lost down cobblestone streets and ornate bridges, Venice has much more to offer than its well-known Carnival and gondoliers. We had the opportunity of experiencing both views of Venice in just one day on our recent Explore Europe trip.
Last year we had decided to stay in Germany for the end of the year and had a nice time in Munich, this year we wanted to something a tad bit more exciting, since my husband’s family was flying over from Miami. And then we laid our eyes upon it, a wonderful opportunity on the Explore Europe page: London for New Years? It was a no-brainer, the biggest Firework show in Europe? Count us ALL in!
In my eyes, it is still the most underrated travel destination Spain has to offer, although its popularity is rising quickly as more and more travellers find their way to the fourth biggest Spanish city. So, with that said, let me introduce you to the city that cultivated my passion for travel.
Dresden is considered the Christmas capital of Germany, since it has the largest amount of Christmas Markets in the eastern part of the country, a lot of them at walking distance from one another. Twinkling stars, glittering lights, Christmas carols and pure glee anywhere you find yourself. Getting lost in Dresden this time of year is an adventure of wonder and beauty.
