Top 5 Aussie Favourite European Destinations

Australians are known for their adventurous spirit and love of travelling all around the world. They enjoy experiencing different cultures, tasting delicious food, and making new friends everywhere. However, there are certain places that they like visiting the most, and here are five of them.

The UK

In the UK, there’s never a shortage of things to do and see. For example, you can explore the Isle of Skye, which has some of the most breathtaking sceneries in the world. You can also visit the countryside, which is quite peaceful and perfect for unwinding.

If you’re into history, you should consider visiting the Roman Baths where you can get an insight into the Roman civilization. Or you can go to the British Museum for a different kind of experience.

In case you’re into something a bit more “modern”, you can always simply enjoy a cup of tea in one of the many great cafés and restaurants. Finally, some of the world’s most popular events and festivals take place in England, like Wimbledon, for example.

Iceland

There are many reasons Aussies like this country famous for its volcanoes, glaciers, cold winters, northern lights, and other natural beauties. Moreover, as cold as the winters can be, the atmosphere is usually described as very cozy – just make sure to bring plenty of warm clothes if you’re travelling during the colder months. On the other hand, you can always enjoy a nice warm bath in one of the many hot springs. Plus, if you love a good barbecue, you’d definitely love Iceland since it’s never too cold for a barbecue there.

Iceland is also perfect for road trips – but horseback is the way to move around. Icelandic horses even have an extra gait, called tölt, which only makes riding them even more thrilling.

France

The city of love can be full of surprises. The French are not that interested in fast food, takeaway coffee, and other typically routine activities, which is why every day in France is different.

When it comes to things to see and do, you should never miss out on the opportunity to see the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. If you like luxury, you should also check out the Palace of Versailles and, of course, Notre-Dame Cathedral. Finally, don’t forget to try a fresh baguette. It might look like any other ordinary bread, but you’d be surprised how good it tastes, especially with a bit of their local cheese.

Spain

If you love good food, you would love spending time in Spain. It is home to some of the world’s best restaurants, and the Spanish are known for enjoying their food like no other nation. Also, Barcelona’s La Sagrada Familia might easily be the most stunning building you’d ever see in your life. If you’re into art, Barcelona is also home to the Dalí Theatre and Museum. Luckily, there are many fun Barcelona day tours that would allow you to visit all the amazing tourist attractions and taste the local food.

Italy

You’ve probably seen those pictures of Italian coastal towns with colourful buildings above the beach. Or those old Roman ruins, gorgeous vineyard, wide piazzas, and magnificent cathedrals. They all actually exist, and they are even more beautiful in person.

Also, there’s much more to Italy than Rome, Florence, and Venice; there are so many beautiful little towns worth exploring. So, if you do come to Italy for a visit, don’t limit yourself to those three options. For example, if you’re looking for some good pizza, Naples is the place to be. Or, if you prefer some delicious lasagna, consider visiting the Italian food capital, Bologna.

 

If you are an Aussie thinking about your next vacation destination, consider some of the above-mentioned options. They offer delicious food, breathtaking sights that you should see with your own eyes, stunning architectural wonders, and unforgettable cultural experiences. After all, they are Aussie favourites for a reason, which means that you can’t go wrong with visiting any of them.
