Pick a destination, plan the whole trip

London

United Kingdom

Museums, royal palaces, gardens and river views. Many of the big sights have timed entry, so booking ahead saves queueing.

Paris

France

Art, architecture and river cruises. The Louvre, Eiffel Tower and Versailles all work best with a pre-booked time slot.

Rome

Italy

Ancient sites, the Vatican and plenty of food stops. Combined tickets cover the Colosseum, Forum and Palatine Hill.

Barcelona

Spain

Gaudí's buildings, beaches and tapas. The most popular interiors have limited daily entry.

Amsterdam

Netherlands

Canals, world-class museums and cycling. Popular museums and canal cruises are worth booking in advance.

Madrid

Spain

The Prado, royal palaces and lively evenings. Madrid also makes a good base for day trips to Toledo and Segovia.

Istanbul

Türkiye

Mosques, bazaars and Bosphorus cruises across two continents. Guided tours help with the old city's layered history.

Lisbon

Portugal

Hilltop viewpoints, historic trams and day trips to Sintra. Plan for hills and comfortable shoes.
