Here seems a good place to start - Where would anyone reccomend for a European weekend break in May. It is for as a 40th birthday celebration. We are (6 guys), not particularly into sport (football etc), one of our party has a back injury so bungee jumping etc is out, we are all later 30's to 40 years, professional, married (that's Amsterdam out then!), and like to eat & drink as much as anyone, but not just for the sake of it!
Open to ideas!
Many thanks in advance.
I have to suggest my two favourites - Prague or Krakow? Great food, drink and lots to do for anyone?
My favourite European city so far is Rome but I haven't been to Prague yet. Have you thought of Dublin?
thanks for that.
Rome, been to before, Poland may be a bit cold, but a possible.
has to be barcelona for me.has everthing you want in a city and a good beach to boot also weather should be good in may.
Poland and Prague warm up nicely from early April or so onwards so by May should be very pleasant and not too warm, good for exploring. Dublin, well maybe I should be more patriotic, but its expensive, friendly enough I suppose and can be cold in May!!
The more I learn the more I think Prague will be the cheaper option in terms of spending money but isn't Dublin a really lively city?
Any help in making up our minds by this Friday appreciated
Thanks David - very helpful. I have sent the links to my friends and on Friday we will make up our mind between Dublin and Prague in May.
Many thnaks to those in the know, and those with some good suggestions, Krakow and Prague neck and neck so far. We have been (individually) to a few European cities, but these are new, so interesting to us.
I will give Krakow a little more pushing because we found it friendly than Prague. To be honest Krakow kind of reminded me of Dublin (where I live) so its got a lot going for it!! Dublin is great fun, friendly (I hope!!) but it is very expensive especially compared to Prague and other places in Eastern Europe. Krakow is also smallish, so easy to get around (especially after the cheap vodkas) and as yet not too touristy at all! Going back for my second longer visit there in March too!
Apparently the nightlife ise xcellent with loads of restaurants,barsand clubs.
We've decided on Dublin - just got to book it now.
