Tips + Tricks
Having lived abroad, and having travelled to over 16 European countries (and counting!) I’ve become somewhat of a European day trip expert.
I know the ins and outs of planning the perfect day trip, from choosing the right destination to packing efficiently. And now, I want to share my knowledge with you.
What you’ll find here:
Destinations: My personal recommendations for day trips throughout Europe – some big cities, some never heard of towns, some natural wonders and everything in between!
Tips and tricks for travelling through Europe – what to pack, how to budget, how to get there, and, most importantly, where to go.
A little about me…
I’m Vourneen! Award winning travel blogger, international traveller, and lover of all things Europe.
I’ve been exploring the continent for over 20 years (oops, showing my age!), coming across some rare-finds and sharing my experiences with fellow travellers.
At a time when I had to scrimp and save my annual leave to fit as much travel into a week as possible, it meant I had to travel a little quicker than I now like to. The upside of that is that I got to see a lot of amazing places in a short amount of time.
Through my travels, I’ve discovered that every European county has its own unique charm and character that can only be experienced by visiting and exploring it firsthand.

Europe Day Trips
One of my favourite things about Europe is how easy it is to get around. I mean, you can literally be in another country within an hour or two without much hassle.
I’ve taken advantage of this countless times, planning day trips to nearby cities and towns that offer a completely different experience than the one I’m currently in.
Most recently, while based in Vienna, I was able to take a bunch of day trips to other towns and cities within Austria, as well as hopping over to Slovakia and Hungary for a day!
Whether you’ve only got a short layover in a city, or you’re short on time and want to maximize your experience, day trips are the perfect solution.
