Activity Weekends
An activity weekend could mean a sightseeing city break in Rome or a trip around the museums and galleries of Paris as much as anything sporty. The increasing number of cheap flights has made it possible to enjoy all kinds of activities and choose from a huge list of destinations. Our database includes everything you need to arrange a romantic weekend in Venice or a couple of days at the Edinburgh festival, a golfing trip to Malaga or a visit to the nightclubs of Reykjavik. The great thing about an activity weekend is that it’s possible to fit so much in that it will seem like a much longer holiday.
Activity weekends in Europe - Any pastime, any budget
An activity weekend could involve a hobby, such as hiking, horse riding or cycling in Spain or Italy in spring or autumn, it could be a city break, at any time, or it could be a weekend skiing trip. An activity weekend could also be a chance to experience various festivals around Europe, from the exotic, such as the Venice Carnival in February, to the glamorous, say the Cannes Film Festival in May, to the downright bizarre, such as La Tomatina, the world’s largest tomato fight, which takes place in Bunol, near Valencia, each August. Munich’s Oktoberfest is a great favourite for beer enthusiasts, while wine lovers might consider a trip to one of the great producing regions such as Bordeaux.
Activity weekends - You can book without moving
Shopping breaks in New York could be a great way to spend a long weekend, while Marrakech offers a chance to experience a completely different culture, but you don’t need to go far to enjoy a cultural experience - a Eurostar trip and a short hop is enough to take in the beautiful medieval city of Ghent, while Bath, with its Georgian terraces and Roman baths can make for a very relaxing weekend. Whether you know where you want to go or you need some ideas, you’ll find everything you need here on this site, from information to booking.
