A short holiday break in Europe opens the door to some of the world’s most romantic, inspiring and historic cities. The easy availability of cheap flights now make a weekend break in Europe not only affordable but quick and easy as well.

A European holiday break can feature some astonishing sights - from the magnificent Coliseum in Rome to the Eiffel Tower in Paris; the architectural delights of Prague to the artistic splendour of Venice.

Your European break could also feature a cruise where the adventure can take in several countries and let you explore totally different cultures.

Those European short breaks that are off the beaten track can hold many hidden delights. Check out the fabulous museums and galleries of Berlin, Nice or Barcelona or feast on the cultural attractions of Amsterdam, Riga or Prague.

Europe has an amazing cultural diversity too, from the tapas bars of Seville to the trendy boutiques of Monaco or Milan. The growth in cheap flight holidays and budget break offers means great city break bargains are almost guaranteed.

Budget airline offers have not only boosted the fortunes of offbeat cities such as Valencia, Bergen and Tallinn but ensured that classic city break destinations such as Rome, Paris, Venice and Barcelona have enjoyed a huge surge in visitors.
