Fun European Vacations to Dublin

End your European vacations with a visit to Dublin, where you can order drinks at any time of the day. Locals have it that Kehoe's is the best place to down a perfect pint of Guinness. The friendly bar staff keeps your mugs full even on busy nights and the crowd huddles around the stairs for conversation. An old microbrewery pub in Dublin is the Porterhouse which sells its own label; apparently, its lagers, ales and stouts are the best you can find at any store. The pub's excellent Irish stew is a great complement to your drink, filling you up at very affordable prices. One of the city's most beautiful neighborhoods is Temple Bar, featuring architectural masterpieces, eco-friendly themes, and cobblestone streets lined with art galleries, cafes and bars. The best day to be in Dublin is March 17 -- St. Patrick's Day -- when there is no need for an excuse to drink. The parade exhibits some of the continents best street performers during a four-day gala. Make sure to wear green, lest you get pinched by the locals!

Enjoyable European Vacations to Vienna

Vienna has a rich heritage in the arts and culture, making it a great city to visit for enriching European vacations. Visit the Wiener Staatsoper at night, when the Vienna State Opera is as dazzling as its world-class performers who stage 50 to 60 opera shows every year. The Hofburg Museum exhibits the imperial jewels of the royal family of Habsburgs. The Sisi Museum is devoted to the Empress Elisabeth Amalie Eugenie of Austria, and allows guests to view the imperial apartments. The Kunsthistorisches Museum and Naturhistorisches Museum have numerous paintings by old masters, and ancient and classical artifacts. There is much to learn about Austrian art and culture at Vienna's museum quarter -- a museum complex refurbished from old imperial stalls in the 1990s. The complex houses, among others, the Leopold Museum, home to one of the largest collections of modern Austrian art and featuring artists such as Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele.

Paris Attractions on European Vacations

Start your European vacations with a trip to the City of Light. The Eiffel Tower, in its time considered a monstrosity, is now probably the most famous of all its landmarks, but it is by no means the only one. Nearby, in the center of Place Charles de Gaulle, visit the Arc de Triomphe, built in honor of those who fought for France, in particular during the Napoleonic Wars. To its east is the Champs-lyses, a haven for those who travel to the city to shop. Art aficionados will love Paris for its many museums. A famous city landmark is the 60,600-square-meter Louvre Palace, home to 35,000 pieces from ancient times to the 19th century. The massive Muse dOrsay located in the former railway station of Gare dOrsay features French art from 1848 to 1915, including sculptures, paintings, photographic material, and furniture. Masterpieces by Van Gogh, Renoir, Degas, Czanne, Manet and Monet from the impressionist and post-impressionist periods figure prominently on the museum's displays. When in town, eat like the locals do -- relax at a caf, order a baguette, and watch life pass by.

Royal Honeymoon European Vacations in Monaco

Continue your wedding to the fairy-tale setting of Monaco, a popular honeymoon destination and travel spot for European vacations. The Principality of Monaco is less than two square miles, but is definitely not short on elegant offerings -- the royal House of Grimaldi, the Paris Opera House, and the Monaco Grand Casino which is lavishly decorated with baroque-style rococo turrets, verdigris cupolas, and golden chandeliers. The city-state overlooks the Mediterranean Sea, and is an ideal harbor for the worlds longest, most expensive yachts. Marvel at the architectural prowess of Old Town, which dates back to the medieval period. The main streets are connected to narrow walkways and arched passageways. Visit the Rock of Monaco, where his Serene Highness Prince Rainier III fell in love with Grace Kelly. For the heady fragrance of over 7,000 types of flowers, visit the Jardin Exotique where the exquisite Princess Grace Rose Garden continues to flourish.
